Description
Established on Hanover Street in 1977 shortly after the Frattaroli family emigrated from Abruzzo, Lucia was the first restaurant to bring authentic Italian cooking to Boston’s oldest neighborhood. The kitchen balances tradition with Italian-sourced cheeses and truffles, exclusive wines, and a mix of classic and innovative regional dishes. The dining room carries an ambiance shaped around their home region, drawing a steady crowd of newcomers alongside patrons who have been visiting since opening year.
