Customer Message:
Sasso underwent some changes, and became Lucca Back Bay. Like its parent restaurant, Lucca Back Bay will offer acclaimed Italian classics at moderate prices, and visitors to the newest addition to the Lucca family will be pleased to encounter such crossover dishes as the Lucca North End's signature wild boar with rigatoni, and the crowd-pleasing pappardelle Bolognese.
In addition to such favorites, celebrated Chef Anthony Mazzotta, formerly of The French Laundry and Per Se, will be using his extraordinary talents to put his spin on classic Italian cuisine. We look forward to many exciting new signature dishes, served in one of the most dramatic dining rooms in Boston. Great news, Boston, the culinary scene just advanced, and you will now have two great locations to experience fabulous food in stunning settings
The newest addition to the Lucca family.
Upscale Italian fare makes for a decadent dining experience near the Prudential Center. - Gerrish Lopez
Twenty foot windows offer stunning street views while Tuscan hues create an elegant ambiance, all inside the cavernous space that was once Blackfin Chop House and Ambrosia on Huntington. Couples sit at the swanky, candlelit bar in the lounge area while diners enjoy attentive service in the main dining room. Lucca's menu features a different region of Italy each season; highlights include a rabbit leg confit with polenta and wild mushrooms, ricotta pyramids with wild boar, and red snapper with whipped potatoes and haricot verts.
