The original evening plan was for the Mrs. & I to play laser tag, but there was an hour wait until the next game.. what to do? Easy..eat of course! Tucci's was right around the corner & since we hadn't been in awhile.. why not? We hadn't been because even though they're pretty good, they had limited seafood selections, & we're pescatarian. Much to our surprise, they'd made some tasty additions to their menu since we were there last. The staff was friendly & actually remembered us from the last time we were there.. after playing laser tag..?With the cool atmosphere, & more for us to choose from on the menu now, we'll probably be back again sooner than later.. my best guess is.. it'll probably be the next time we go play laser tag..???Dietary restrictions: My wife has a few dietary restrictions, but they've always been more than willing to modify her dish to make sure it was to her liking.Parking: I've never had a problem finding free parking on the street or directly across the street in a big free lot.
My first time , the atmosphere and music was so refreshing,i was greeted and seated right away, the waitress was so sweet and attentive.The bartender made one of the best (srtong) lemon drops I’ve had in a long while,and then the food was absolutely amazing,i had the crab cakes with Brussels sprout and mashed potatoes. And not let’s forget about the butter cake ,omg was it great. 10/10 i recommend
Food, decor and ambiance do not match online menu and/or social media. Quality of food didn’t meet expectations (Whipped Ricotta, Calamari Fries, Pear and Prosciutto pizza and Shrimp/Sausage Rigatoni), all the food tasted frozen and or processed and lacked freshness. Restaurant seemed sterile and lacked life, would not recommend or go back.

Never been so hot in my life. We were seated in a tiny cramped booth were it was so hot sweat was pouring off of me. My husband was squished into the booth. Table was so small our food didn't fit on the table. Bread basket had to be held in my lap....no room on table. Server had too many tables. He did a good job despite the fact that he had too many tables. Wine came out after entres were delivered. Food was very good. Too bad we couldn't really enjoy it. First and last time at Tucci's.
Just want to give a shout out to the staff at Tucci's. We ordered the calamari (which was to die for) Cesar salads, lasagna and a pizza. The food was excellent but they actually brought us the wrong pizza. Our server Shelby was on point all evening and she also brought the manager over to apologize for the mix up. Not only did they comp the pizza, the comped ALL the food! We only had to pay for our drinks. I'm extremely impressed with the way they handled this. We will definitely be back.
The environment is wonderful! The staff was all very kind, especially Jack he was extra attentive to our table. Food was delicious, Tucci's is now one of my favorite restaurants in Carmel.

We arrived to a long line of people who all had reservations. After a little wait we were seated and then they realized that they had sat the rest of our party already at another table in a different room. Finally got sorted out. Meal came quickly and food was great. Prices are very reasonable. We will go here again.
Our experience was ok. Staff was friendly. We started with calamari & mussels, then we got filet, New York strip, ribeye, short ribs & halibut. Mains were decent, sides were not that great. Overall not a great value for the money.

We visited Tucci's last night for the first time and the food was excellent. The salad dressing on the house salad was to die for! My husband ordered the crispy fried ravioli for an appetizer and enjoyed it. For our main dishes, he had the chicken parmesan & I had the filet with a baked potato. Chicken was great & the filet was cooked perfectly. Staff was professional and attentive. My only true complaint was the restaurant (we were seated upstairs was absolutely freezing!!!) and nearly everyone upstairs had to wear their coats while they ate, which does make things a little less enjoyable especially for the price point. I went down to the host stand & asked them to turn it up, manager came up, talked to guests & said he would be getting the issue addressed the next day. He apologized for the inconvenience, which is totally not his fault. I think it was a combo of the very cold temps & the high ceilings. If you visit, ask to sit downstairs especially if it's freezing outside. We will return but will definitely sit downstairs where it's more comfortable.

Food and service were excellent. Our reservation was do 5 and the seating was very cramped. We were seated in a booth that really was not designed for 5. Just suggest if you have a party larger than 4, call ahead and discuss seating.
Only 4 stars. We had a reservation but had to wait. The soup and meatballs were Luke warm at best. The waitress was nice but appeared to be over whelmed. The entrees were great and the dessert was just okay!!!

We had been to Matt the Miller, this was our first Tucci experience. Did the Devour Indy experience. Side house salad was above average, osso buca was excellent! Tiramisu was the worst WE had ever had. 3 of 4 had it. All three disappointed. Service was exceptional! We compared you to Mangianos... ok, good, not exceptional...
This was a mixed bag and our first visit. No one at hostess desk for a bit then a nice wait staff came up and said we will go upstairs it is more VIP then the hostess showed up and said no I will take them downstairs so that was strange (reservation made well in advance ) . When I ordered the tuna and asked for medium ( I know that is not the norm but the way I like it) she said I don't know if they can do that ! I asked her to please inquire so she did and came back and said they would. The food was delicious, plated well but not warm. The ingredients were very good so sad it wasn't warm . In the meantime we were still waiting for the wine we ordered for dinner and we're almost done no one around so my husband went to look for someone and they said they will check. our waitress retuned and said the bar never got our order the machine must be out of tape but we will discount them if you still want them and we said ok . after we got our drinks she came back and said instead they would give us 1 dessert . it was all very strange . so there it is . maybe it was just an off night because the food didn't match the situation but is was a bday dinner
Took my daughters for a daddy/daughter date. It was our first time there. The food was good and the service was excellent. Our waitress was attentive and very nice. We will go again.

Food was delicious. We ordered off the Devour menu and was happy with food quality. Our server was okay. Personable when she was at table but significant delay in getting our drinks, placing our order, and receiving the order. Not sure if it was on server's side or the kitchen side for the delay. Good food, may try again if in the area but there's alot of other options that might have faster service.
