Santa Lucia Restaurante

We were in Fargo for the marathon, excellent recomendation from our hotel staff at holiday in expsess, we asked for a good food place! we were sent to Santa Lucia. We were exceptionaly impressed! Started with crisp very tasty Greek Salad, then homade garlic bread, my bbq ribs were the best I had ever had! My husband had the gourmet Gyro pizza, now I know every award this place has posted is well deserved! The only complaint is that they are not in Minneapolis! please come here! please!! Our service was way better than it should have been considering they were lined up out the door. Thank you Santa Lucia for making our trip to Fargo an upbeat blast! The old world service is a treat to see! Where else do owners walk around buying wine to customers? The employees were more like owners too, no chain feel here! Koudos Santa Lucia! more

Try the stuffed peppers! Service was prompt and courteous. The server knew what to recommend and was pronouncing the names of the dishesh correctly and confidently. Prepare about 30 dollars per person when you are thinking about going there. The interior is not the restaurant's best asset. The fauntain in the center was taking up much valuable space, that could have been used for extra tables, considering the fact Santa Lucia is so tiny. I've heard that they are about to be moving it to a new location soon and I can't wait to go and see what they did with the interior this time, since lack of space will no longer be an issue. Pros: Family owned, not a franchise which makes it a bil less main stream and the food doesn't taste like it's coming out of the microwave Cons: Interior more
