| - I have a soft spot for Luca's. It may not be the best food, but it's always satisfying, and it's affordable.
My favorite option is usually the lunch special - either two slices of pizza and a salad, or two empanadas and a salad. Both of those are $5.95, so you're dining for under $10 downtown. The empanadas are crispy and savory, with my favorite being the chicken and corn. I also like the beef empanadas, which usually have a little potato and green olive in the filling. All the empanadas are served with a super-garlicky chimichurri sauce, so beware if you're returning to work after lunch.
The pizza is nothing to write home about, but the nostalgic part of me that loves school cafeteria food really enjoys the cheese pizza.
Overall, Luca's is a pretty quick, always satisfying, inexpensive lunch spot in downtown, and I'd definitely recommend it!
