Luca's Cucina Italiana & Lodge

We've been twice and particularly love their pizza! Delicious thin and crispy crust with generous toppings. The pasta is also great, with large portions and tasty toppings, also very good vegetarian options.
Also has very friendly service and a great location, situated on a beach. Note there is a steep hill to walk down to get to it as tricycles struggle to get back up and prefer to drop you off at the top.
It's going to be our regular place for special lunches and dinners while we stay on Mindoro!

Nice place. I recommend to eat here. We regret that we didn't try it earlier 😁 good price, good quality, tasty and very big portion! We like it

We always come for lunch when we are in the area. Pizza are good and huge, and pasta marinara is very nice and big! Prices are are very reasonable. And the restaurant sits right on the best beach in the area. They have a free kayak and sunchairs! Very nice place!

Pasta, pizza, and a phenomenal view! We absolutely loved our afternoon there.

This place used to be in of the best kept secrets in the Philippines with access only possible via boat.
These days there's a road in, but it doesn't detract from the feeling that you've come across a hidden gem.
I've eaten at many an Italian restaurant, quite a few of them in Italy.
The quality of the food here is exceptional.
Local seafood delicacies feature in the menu and they are a highlight.
Only in places like the Philippines can you find food that would cost you $30-40 per dish back home, served up for as little as $5.
The low price isn't an indication of low quality, just a reflection of the local economy.
If you ever get the chance, visit this place and you can take a dip in the crystal clear ocean before, after or even between courses!
You will be glad you came.

In my opinion, it’s the best pizza in Philippines. Tasty dough, thin-crust, with an unforgettable aroma, brings to your mind scents from Italy.

100% worth it to come here!!

Delighted to have our breakfast lunch and diner here at Lucas. Prices are GREAT! Food is SUPERB! We tried to order everything in the resto but we only got 2.5 days. Will be back! Best Italian food in the island❤🍕🍝

I ordered pasta and pizza around 7am yesterday. I called and asked if they could prepare the order ahead of time so that I can just come and pick it up. The person I spoke with said I can come pick it up after an hour and a half. I was surprised that it was all done in an hour and they even delivered it to where I am checked-in which is near white beach. They even gave me a bottle of hot sauce. The food packaging was perfect. I am giving them a 5-star review for the great food and fantastic customer service!

Authentic and delicious Italian pizza! And amazing setting. Just doesn’t get any better then this! Owner is a really nice guy and knows his stuff! Don’t miss it!

I had a great time in this area, one of the best food. Staff are very friendly and accommodating.
The beachfront is spacious so you can play with some activities such as volleyball.

Good food. The room has a lower price compared to nearby resorts. And the best thing is that the staff are very helpful and accommodating.

The best! Also open before any other place for cappuccino! For the location, the food is absolutely amazing. Don't listen to get negative reviews. The owners take pride in their product and resort. Just communicate with your server to come and see you more than normal. Amazing what happens when people just simply communicate!

Italian food at its best. Atmosphere improved s lot since the new owners tool over.
Their Pizza Bolognese is a MUST try!!!

Vegetable pizza and Hawaiian pizza are delicious.
There is also a small shower next to the store.
Mango shakes aren't as good as they used to be, but there's nothing to drink.
Pasta is creamy in Etheri style.
There are also locals who continue to roam around, so be careful about storing things.

Luca's place is ibeon a lovely and quiet area at the end of talipanan beach. Room are basic but comfortable and super clean. Restaurant in a amazing location, actually just on the beach. Pizza is outstanding (remark comes by an Italian guy), pasta is nice as well. All courses are huge ( as Italians like). Very Warm hospitality.... I go there once a month in average, and my family love the place and Luca's companionship

Though far from the white beach, the food and ambiance here is very good. Most of the menu are Italian variety. Note that one serving is good for 2 persons. Moderately priced. Try their pasta and tahong.

Great place to eat italian food at. Cheap price and good serving size. Over our stay we had pizza, eggplants, and crepes. There are a lot of italians there if that is a draw. Wpuld reccommend to eat, but I have not stayed there yet.

Best pizza, and also pasta super masarap....and others Italian food is good as the food in Italy glorious so Good..😊😊😊😊😊
+ The place so nice....on sea front the beach is very nice
I'm sure you will have great time if you go to Luca's place....
