caffe De Luca

Editorial Review

De Luca has the distressed ambiance of a bombed Italian village that never quite rebuilt itself, including a half-collapsed brick wall and a high-hanging laundry line separating back dining area from front. Pretend you're a spy for the cultural resistance while downing espressos and eating great paninis, or just stare at your bluescreened laptop like everyone else in the room. You're in good company either way, especially on half-price bottle wine nights on Tuesday and Wednesday.
