Lucina Eatery & Bar

It has been so long since I've enjoyed a meal as much as I have at Lucina. My friends and i tried over half the menu for a friends birthday amd every single one was on point. Shoutout to the kitchen, they did an absolutely amazing job. Nakoa was, by far, one of the best servers I've ever had. He was on top of absolutely everything, even managing to modify some dishes for my vegetarian friend to also enjoy. I cannot recommend Lucina enough, and I'll be telling everyone to come dine here. Also, give Nakoa a raise, he deserves it.

Always a great experience! All three trips have been at the bar and each time has been a lot of fun.

Such a great experience at Lucina. Chris, our server, was lovely. Vibe is fantastic — recommend sitting at the bar if you can. Food was so delicious! Ceviche, paella, and tlacoyo all out of this world. And cocktails were awesome too.

My friends and I wanted to try this restaurant because the reviews were solid; we were very disappointed. Our party waited 20 minutes to be seated with a reservation. Lucina offered to comp our drinks for our wait, which was appropriate. Once we were seated and had ordered food, their team told us we would have to move tables and dessert would be comped for our troubles. We did not end up moving, but this massive miscommunication between their staff greatly affected our experience. The restaurant was loud and very disorganized. Lucina decided to provide us with bread as an apology for this chaos. Our server forgot to remove this on the receipt and tried to charge us for something we did not order. Our waiter should have refreshed the water glasses more frequently, and the food was not worth this poor service. I would advise spending your money elsewhere.

If there ever was a restaurant that deserves a perfect 5.0 rating, this is it. The way they blend flavors in the drinks and the food is absolutely incredible. The Tiki drink I had excited the sense of taste as much as smell. The burning embers, mint, and rum made for a combo like nothing I've ever had before. The burger may be the best burger I have ever had. And I seek out the best burgers, but I can't think of one that compares to this. The wagyu was perfectly cooked and the aioli made the perfect accent. The steak with chimichurri was perfect. The salad had a unique taste that was incredible. The Banana con Dulce de Leche topped off the evening. I really can't get over how well they blend flavors for a taste that is out of this world!

On a recent trip to Denver I was finally were able to visit this restaurant after hearing so many good things about it. Since we didn't have a reservation we decided to go early (just after opening) and were seated at the bar (there were no reservations available). The bar service was great. The bar staff were attentive, efficient, and intuitive. The food was delicious. Probably the best meal we've ever had in Denver. We ordered the Paella which was so yummy. We also ordered the Mofongo, the Empanadas, and the salad. All were very delicious. We will definitely be back on our next trip to Denver but it'll take some planning as we hear you need to reserve weeks ahead to get a table.

Amazing food! Everything we had was delicious. I especially liked the duck and the pupusa. The atmosphere was fun and the service was fantastic. I definitely want to go back!

Absolutely one of the hidden gems in Denver dining their food and service is just great. Make sure and make a reservation to ensure you can enjoy your evening there.

What an absolutely amazing time at Lucina!! Everything was delicious!!!
