Lucia sits in the centre of Beverley, offering locals and visitors the opportunity to enjoy handmade Italian food and delicious cocktails in beautiful surroundings. It’s a relaxed retreat suited to brunch gatherings, casual lunches, and celebration dinners. Beverley is a beautiful town between York and Hull, so it’s hardly surprising that Lucia is a gorgeous location for all manner of dining occasions.
The interiors are modern but luxurious. Think red velvet banquettes, mint green chairs, exposed brickwork, marble-topped tables, and vintage-style lamps and light fixtures. You’ll also find a heated terrace, complete with a retractable roof and blankets in case the Yorkshire weather refuses to play ball. Dotted around you’ll find olive trees, floral displays, and flower prints.
The menu features classic dishes that use world-class ingredients set to wow diners each time. As all great Italian restaurants should, the Lucia menu begins with a choice of bread, including garlic bread or pinwheels, with toppings of green pesto, pepperoni with nduja and mozzarella, and goat's cheese with onion chutney. Starters ensure your meal is off to a good start with truffle garlic mushrooms, chicken Caesar croquettes with baby gem and 24-month-old parmesan, and Italian meatballs in a spicy tomato sauce topped with parmesan cheese.
As for mains, you’re spoiled for choice with a stellar selection of pasta and risotto, steaks, sourdough pizzas, burgers, and signature favourites. Whether you opt for homemade lobster ravioli with truffle oil, signature pan-roasted pork belly with creamy mashed potato, or a hot honey pizza with San Marzano tomatoes and Fior Di Latte mozzarella you can guarantee a satisfying meal.
For dessert we suggest you try the Italian tiramisu. Layers of zabaione and espresso drenched sponge cake are served with fresh berries and chocolate sauce – bellissimo!
