caffe DeLuca


This Italian restaurant in Forest Park is restful and fun. The food is very good and the service can be "iffy" but it all works out. For starters the steamed mussels and the garlic shrimp are a big GO! I'd leave the smoked mozzarella for another..no just leave it. The flat bread or small thin crispy crust pizzas are wonderful. Try the Napoli or the Milano very good! Chicken DeLuca is MMMM! Just to name a few tasty choices. They have a full bar and the wine by the glass is good. This neighborhood place is quaint and restful. Diner23 gives this place 3 triangles for food and 3 for ambiance.


There is a need for an update. Recent visits have proved to be even better than before. Try the Vegetable Lasagna, very yummy. Service has improved too.

I like this place too -- it is a very restful place for apps and wine...take a group!

Also, they have an outdoor rooftop/ patio...have never been up there but it looks like fun.
