It was not tarte enough to offset the sweetness of the white grapes and the pungency of the cheese, but the greens were a mix of frize, arugala, red vine spinach.and a couple others, which made for a nice presentation. Second course was a mixed green salad with gorganzola, white grapes raisins, and a champaigne vinaigrette. The bed of pesto was very flavorful and tastfully dense which more than made up for the polenta. The polenta was a tad bland, however it usually is. The four course taster's meal was only 20.00 each.įirst course was fried polenta cake with a thick basil pesto. My girlfriend and I had been there once before but it had been a couple of years. Very fresh ingredients – For my friend's birthday, my girlfirend and I took my friend and his wife to Luci Ancora last night. This is a local restaurant that gets their food from local farmers!Ĭheck it out, if you go on a Tuesday/Thursday the prices are fabulous!Įxecution of each plate was great. I also love that they list the farms where they receive their food from. I don't know if I've ever had a better cooked piece of fish before, it was amazing.

Last night our final course was Halibut and it was cooked perfectly.

The food selection here is northern Italian, so it's a heavy based off seafoods. The ambiance is beautiful, with a real fireplace, and the bathrooms are very nice and clean. This place is very small, so make sure to make reservations ahead of time if you want to be guaranteed a seat. On Tuesday's and Thursday's they offer a special for 2 people the 4-course "sampler" (which is more than enough food for one person) is only $20 a person! This sampler varies from night to night, but I can imagine you could call and ask what it is that evening. I went a few years ago and again last night and both times the service, food, wine and desserts have been excellent. My favorite restaurant in the Twin Cities! – Luci Ancora is growing to be one of my favorite restaurants in the twin cities area.
