La Corte - LUCCA

Wide-ranging menu, excellent choice of beers and wines. Friendly staff. The one downside was the over-loud music coming from another part of the premises.

We came to this restaurant for the first time and the service is horrible! Italians who came in after us have their food before we even got to order. The blatant resentment of Americans is obvious and disrespectful. The waitress is lazy and acts annoyed when you talk to her. Avoid this place at all costs if you speak English or expect mediocre service.

This was our fourth visit to La Corte as we always try to go there when we 're in Lucca and have always enjoyed it. However, this time we found the food and ambience 'very average '. We ordered a sea bass 'isolana ' that should be baked with vegetables but instead we got a baked fish with vegetables on the side. The dish was very bland. Service was prompt but we just felt that it was mass catering.

Excellent restaurant and ambiance. Really nice in the summer, with small area for children to play outside. Extensive menu including pizzeria.

A welcoming restaurant within walking distance of Villa Pardi , the service is good and the food is great and reasonably priced as is the wine.
