Very good pasta dishes and the daily specials are all freshly made by the chef/owner from Napoli. Good helpful service with the daily specials described in detail by friendly waiters. Chef/owner also introduced himself to all tables later in the evening. Only problem we had, was the restaurant was far too hot, and we couldnt sit and relax. Fine when... More

This turned out to be one of our best meals in Lucerne. I had the spaghetti with prawns and it was really delicious. My husband had a pizza, you can find them everywhere in Lucerne, and it was very good as well. Was expecting more of a chain style restaurant meal and was pleasantly surprised. One thing to note, the... More

We stopped in here just for gelato. Daniel had banana and stracciatella and it was good gelato for a Swiss town but nothing like real italian gelato, it was nice but not amazing. I agree. I had melon which was lovely and especially combined with chocolate. I also had stracciatella which I found the chocolate was too rich.

In four days at Lucern, me and my wife came back 3 times: 2 for dinner and 1 for lunch (pizza). Everything was perfect, great service, kindly people and good wines. Two words: Good times!!

If you are looking for a quiet and relaxing evening. Don't step in here...Worst restaurant in switzerland !!!! If you are a tourist, don't waste a great evening in... More

As a normal customer is expected and is entitled to do .. one of us happen to ask... isnt water free??? the waiter throws a fit and very briskly dismisses the question and is arrogant and rude....

Having to stay a few months in Lucerne, I have tried out numerous restaurants and have found an excellent "Ristorante Italiano". Being Italian and having a "Mamma" that has her own restaurant, my expectations are quite high when going out for an Italian dinner. I am happy to have found Mamma Leone. The chefs are from Tuscany and bring out... More

I've had the pleasure of eating in this restaurant a number of time whilst in Luzern on a long business trip, and have yet to be disappointed. The food is always excellent. The daily special pasta dishes are made with home-made pasta. The service is second to none as well. Prices are average for Luzern. Will try to eat at... More
