Buca di Sant'Antonio Details PleaseTuesday to Saturday 12:30 PM - 3 PM & 7:30 PM- 10 PMSunday 12:30- 3 PM & Closed on MondayWhat Our Friends Are SayingMichelin: "Just a stone’s throw from Piazza San Michele, in the heart of the beautiful historic centre of Lucca, the Buca di Sant'Antonio is one of the city’s oldest restaurants. Specialising in traditional Tuscan cuisine, the main courses here focus almost entirely on meat dishes. The old copper pots and pans that hang from the ceiling add to the homely atmosphere."Lonely Planet: "Gosh, what a fabulous collection of copper pots is strung from the wood-beamed ceiling! This atmosphere-laden restaurant has wooed romantic diners since 1782 and is still going strong. The Tuscan cuisine does not quite live up to the exceptional wine list, but it remains a favourite nonetheless. Service is formal – think gents of a certain age in black suits and dicky bows – and opens with a glass of prosecco on the house as aperitif."
