We went to Luciano's on our first night in Corpus. It's a little off the beaten path, and considering we walked in dressed very casually and saw the white tablecloths, we thought we might've been a little underdressed; however, other customers showed up dressed casual as well, so we knew we were ok. They have a good menu and a... more

Our family really enjoyed dining there. My eggplant seemed huge at first but there wasn't a single morsel left. I'm the only one who likes eggplant in the family but everyone tried it and they loved "eggplant made this way." The pork tenderloin with fruity sauce and risotto was amazing and the seafod pasta my husband ordered (mussels, shrimp in... more

Great!

Went over 4th of July weekend. Didn't have to wait for a table and the location is not far from downtown. The waitress was excellent and the manager even came to check on us to make sure we were pleased with our meal. I had the Chicken Parmigiana and it was fantastic. My boyfriend and I are from Houston and... more

Luciano's has the best and freshest italian food in Corpus. Though the menu is short the dishes are amazing. I have never had an entree I did not like. Also, they have recently spruced up the inside and have added to items to the lunch menu. more

We drive down from San Antonio once a month just to have dinner at Luciano's. We love their food. We use to eat at Luciano's original location a few blocks away in the 70's and 80"s until we moved out of state. When we came back to the area a few years ago the restaurant was closed. By luck, last... more

Average spot to stop at as a tourist in Corpus Christi, but nothing special and a bit overpriced. Owners have tried to make the inside nice, but it still feels like a store without the clothes racks. Food is quite average Applebees or Denny's Italian, but priced for good specialty Italian food. We were quite dismayed when we got our... more

Ate there just last night... the food was solid, the wine reasonably priced, and the server was friendly. It was worth the trip from N. Padre island... I can't vouch for it as the #1 italian place, since this is the only Italian place I have eaten at in Corpus, but it is a solid value and good food. more

We went to Luciano's late on a Saturday night and were delighted by the warm service and the exceptional food. The meal started with the garlic bread(ciabatta) and a salad w/ gorgonzola dressing, both were awesome. I had the Lasagna along with my mother and it was great. My wife had the Spaghetti w/ meat sauce which was fabulous as... more

We went to Luciano's for Valentines day and I was very impressed. The prices are fair for decent italian food. I definetly reccomend getting the Ciabatta bread as an apetizer. Their side salad with gorganzola cheese is also great! We are going back tonight for our one year anniversary. Go and try this little place out. It is not the... more
