About Luci
Celebrating Melbourne’s history of Italian immigrants and evolution into a cosmopolitan culinary city, Luci is a contemporary Australian restaurant housed within the grand hall of the Equity Chambers Building on Bourke Street. Its art deco-style dining room – designed by Bates Smart – provides a sophisticated backdrop to the Mod Oz menu with Italian accents; think breakfast plates such as eggs Benny - poached egg, smoked salmon and Hollandaise on a buttermilk crumpet. Dine in the evening over tuna crudo, buttermilk, anchovy and green ants; before spaghetti with prawns, wild garlic and anchovy. For the main, opt for pasture-fed eye fillet, Jerusalem artichoke purée, broccolini and mustard jus; finishing with chocolate brownie, popcorn ice cream, whisky caramel pecan and cacao nibs.

Came down from Sydney after reading in restaurant options in Melb and AGFG wrote up on Luci was impressive, food and service was great but the ambiance not so great.
