Lucci's Monday - Saturday 11:00AM - 10:00PM Leesburg Virginia's Authentic Italian, Greek and |
 |
Carolina Lucci and her husband, Mostafa Hessein, began their business in July of 1995 in Leesburg across from the Rescue Squad and the Skate Park. The restaurant is named after Carolina's mother, whom everyone affectionately calls Mama Lucci. Mama is known in her native Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, for her specialty recipes, as well as her warm and sincere smile.
Carolina, Mostafa, and their family all contributed their talents to the beauty of the interior design of the restaurant, which seats about 60. Carolina's brother, Michael Lucci, crafted all the counter and tabletops with precision, a talent inherited from Michael Lucci, Sr., a certified kitchen and bath designer. The craftsman James Ursitti made and continues to make significant contributions as well. Carolina's expertise in floral design provides an atmosphere of warmth and hominess in the dining room, as well as providing a lovely background for the dramatic Egyptian art from Mostafa's travels.
As you enter Mama Lucci's Restaurant, the aroma of homemade tomato sauce with fresh garlic, just like Grandma used to make, surrounds you. The menu's wide variety of Italian, Middle Eastern, Greek and American dishes are all freshly prepared with an added special touch by the owners, Carolina and Mostafa.
