The positive from this visit, is that the Misto di Carne pizza was fabulous - one of the best pizzas we have had in a long time. The seafood linguini however, was just that - linguini with some seafood. No sauce, no seasoning, no flavour. The calamari rings still had the membranes on them. The seafood didn’t taste fresh, but had the watery texture of frozen. For £20 a portion we were expecting much more. The food took a long time to appear. Once our main was eaten a different server than we had earlier came over and told us that there was only 15 minutes left on our table booking so if we wanted dessert or coffee we would have to move to the bar area. (The very small print on the booking confirmation when I looked later did say 2 people only had 1.5 hours). We declined and asked for the bill, we didn’t feel very welcome at this point. The bill arrived with a “discretionary cover charge”. We would normally tip in a restaurant, but resent being told how much and didn’t feel the experience was worth it, so didn’t leave it. £6.50 for a pint of lager, with a tonic water, a basket of bread , 2 mains and a salad adding up to £60 and then being told we couldn’t have dessert at our table because it had taken so long to get our main course wasn’t great. The restaurant wasn’t exceptionally busy at 5.45pm and we ordered quite quickly. The hour and a half would normally be acceptable for a fast chain pizza restaurant, but we thought Lucia’s would have been more than that. A disappointing experience.
