Service was good. The drinks were okay. But the breads, it was difficult to chew. I had it heated but man, i had a hard time chewing it even after slicing a small bite. I won’t be back. Not for the breads anyway.

I go here when I want a breather from the crazy, packed mall. It’s a good place to hangout with friends. Their iced coffee drinks are good but a bit too sweet so I always ask to just to omit it. I’m hoping the service isn’t deteriorating. But, the last time I came and ordered cake, I was given just a sliver of a slice.

I had after-meal coffee at Starbucks with some high school classmates (with whom I had a buffet lunch earlier) before meeting my BFF at nearby Lucca in Fashion Mall. In short, I was unbelievably full. I wasn't really planning to eat again but wasn't strong enough to resist the call of Chicken Noodle Soup (P160) whispering my name as I scanned the menu.Lucca has that "rustic" feel. Actually, it gave me that feel of a small, country bakeshop. Plus it has the distinct smell that gives a picture of bread baking inside an oven. So, that's why I ordered for the Chicken Noodle Soup (which was not bad at all!). My BFF ordered the Bread Pudding (P85). We both love puddings (we adore the bread pudding at Figaro) and Lucca's was almost as memorable. Not quite but almost. We didn't like the slightly crispy texture but hey, a pudding is a pudding. The Passion Berry? I didn't finish it. It tasted like it was from a Minute Maid mix with a half a cup of white sugar (Sunquick is so much better!). The service? Actually, I don't remember. Maybe the servers gave a lackluster performance of their duties that I didn't even bother to notice. I don't know. Am I going back? Maybe. Maybe not.The truth? Lucca is just a mediocre store with average servers and sadly, so-so food. The effort is there but Lucca must go double-time in making their business interesting. Try triple-time? Sayang eh.

My friends and I went here for dessert. We ordered their 3 bestseller cakes: 5 Layer Chocolate Cake, Macadamia Sansrival and Chocolate Cheesecake. The most disappointing one is the sansrival, which should have a chewy meringue but instead the texture is grainy and too sweet for the liking. While the other 2 are okay but their chocolate cake is a bit dry and the cheesecake's sweetness is overwhelming after 4-5 bites. Sadly, it's not worth its price.

I love the spot because it's not crowded and away from mainstream coffee shop/bakery. Red velvet is a bit dry inside. Cappucino is one good cup id say.

Lucca is a good place to hangout (relax) for a weekday, afternoon snack. It's a calmer alternative to major coffee shops peppered around the mall where there are usually a surge of people.Ordered chicken pesto, 3 layer velvet cake and a calamansi shake. The pesto was at average at best though the serving was plentiful. The pasta is al dente smothered with chopped basil and garlic. Several chicken strips which I found lacking in flavor completes the dish. The 3 layer velvet cake was good enough for me. The cake itself was not too sweet although it's a bit dry for my liking. The calamansi shake was enticing served in a medium size Mason jar.

We tried this restau out last week. We ordered baked mac, pizza, lemon bar, and red velvet cake. Everything tasted okay, but it could be better. The baked mac was okay. The right part tasted bland while the left part was just fine. The pizza had a soft dough. When I tried to cut it vertically, it got cut horizontally. It would be better if the dough was crispier. The lemon bar tasted too strong for me, but my partner loved it. The red velvet was so-so.The price is so affordable for the desserts, but it's a bit expensive for the pasta and pizza. The taste doesn't match the price. However, the place has a good ambiance. It's very IG worthy! 😂In conclusion, we will still go back here and try a different set. Hopefully, we will have a better experience next time.

Still sad their UP Town Center branch closed down. At least they still have one in Mega. Normally I order their desserts and pastries but we decided to try their savory dishes instead. We ordered: Chicken Pesto (Php 245) Mama’s Meatball Pasta (Php 265) Both pasta dishes the noodles were al dente and flavorful but I didn’t like the meatball though. It lacked seasoning.

A tiny nook best served for having an after dinner dessert and coffee / tea. I chanced upon Lucca's just to kill some time before work and I was pleasantly surprised by their tea. I ordered the Passion Fruit Tisane and I've had one of the most delightful experiences in a cafe. They serve it in a pot so you get to pour it yourself and you get to experience that refreshing fruity flavor with each sip. And you savor it because the tea cup is a little tiny. I also had their Three layer chocolate cheesecake which is on par with any cafe out there. Would've loved to try their savory dishes and based on other people's orders it looked like something to look forward to next time I visit.

Been here twice. I love the coffee and cakes in here. I really enjoyed Lucca's Specialty Latte which is the Mocha Bianca. I also enjoyed their Monte Cristo Sandwich.
