  We had a wonderful meal there on a Friday night. Place is only been opened a few weeks, but the service was excellent and the food was delicious. They definitely need to salt their water when preparing the pasta because it took a lot of salt to get it up to a pleasant flavor, but everything else was perfect enough food for three leftover meals.

  Lowkey place! Not fancy inside. They opened recently and do not yet have their liquor license. The pizza was pretty good, not the best in Raleigh, but decent! We ordered a 18 inch Roma pizza for 3 people to share and had a couple slices left over. Caesar salad was good as well.

  I was looking for a bite and saw this restaurant. I wasn't really expecting much other than an average Italian meal, however this establishment exceeded my expectations. Not only I was met with delicious food, but a pleasant staff that was kind and attended to my every need without being asked. I would definitely recommend La Cucina if you're looking to feed your Italian cravings.

  Been in here for my lunch atleast 3 times a week since they opened and every time the food is amazing. Great quality and service especially for a restaurant that recently opened. I love that everything is prepared to order and really does italian food right. Cannot recommend this place enough

  This place is SO good! You can tell everything’s made fresh too. The red sauce is homemade and the dough! It is perfection. Super flavorful, made with love, and just really good Italian food done right. Definitely a 5-star spot in my book!
