Overview
Lucio Pizzeria has recently opened its doors in Republic 2, adding to the already vibrant Darlinghurst area.
Owner and Chef Lucio De Falco, in his first restaurant brings the traditional taste of Naples to Sydney.
Lucio Pizzeria is open 7 nights a week and offers a range of pizze, antipasto and is fully licensed. The wine list boasts both red and whites from Australia and Italy. Lucio Pizzeria uses fresh produce from around Australia and imports the much acclaimed Buffalo Mozarella from Italy.
Dine in relaxing indoor and outdoor seating whilst enjoying the taste of Italy at your doorstep!
Lucio spent 4 years at Amici Ristorante in Cammeray. Through Amici Ristorante Lucio was able to make a name for himself as one of Sydney’s finest Pizzaiolo’s. His customer base not only included the Neapolitan community but the wider Italian community. Through Lucios experience and skill he was also able to educate his Australian customers on what Vera Neapolitan Pizze was.
He gained rave reviews in the “Good Food Guide”, Sydney Morning Herald, The Sun-Herald, Sydney Weekender on Channel 7, Hospitality Magazine and Mosman Daily.
We look forward to seeing you at Lucio pizzeria!

My fiancée and I ate here about 2 weeks ago and I still remember the dishes perfectly. I remember perfectly because the food was exceptional.
We started with the "Polpi Affoggati" and the "Figi con Spek".
The Octopus was cooked to perfection and the Napoletana Sauce it was in was to die for. The Figs were fresh and the Spek was cooked well.
We ordered two pizza's. When I try new Pizzeria's I always try the Margerita and compare them with places like La Disfida in Haberfield or Napoli in Bocca in Haberfield. Let me tell you something for nothing, I thought I'd never find a better pizza than La Disfida, but I have. It's this place.
Considering Lucio is Napoletano, I had high expectations, and he lived up to them. The crust is nice and fluffy like a real Napoletana Pizza should, though is not too filling. The topping is nice and fresh. Tomato and Mozzarella were brilliant.
Service was excellent with Lucio him self introducing himself at our table.
Price was reasonable too.
Highly recommended.

Probably the most authentic and best pizzas in Sydney! Very similar to the one from Naples. The dough is great and ingredients well picked. Try to go there early to get a table!

Went on a Monday night and there was no wait for a table. Ordered the Calamari to share as an entrée and then ordered the Fume pizza (provola, speck and mushroom) and the Diavola (hot salami, mozzarella). The Diavola was super tasty but the Fume had no topping on almost two thirds of the pizza so it was literally like eating a big disc of bread, delicious as the bases are, I was a tad disappointed.
The parts of the pizza that did have topping tasted great but there just weren’t enough of those sections. I also thought the salt and pepper calamari at $19 for about 12-15 pieces extremely over the top. The wine list is very short and not enough in the lower end price range. 1 entrée, 2 pizzas, 1 mineral water and 3 glasses of the cheapest red came to $90, I think $70 would have been more appropriate but the pizzas are some of the best around so we’ll bite the bullet and come back and forego an entrée next time.

As an Italian I can say it's the best pizza I have had in Sydney! It's truly authentic! You won't find hawaiian of the menu here! And the desserts are amazing as well.

Pizza were pretty good. The service was great - love the real Italian waiters and the overall ambience excellent. Great to see the Chef Lucio come out and say 'Hi'. Nice limited Italian wine list.

Went there on the public holiday for the first time, not thinking they would be open, what a surprise not only to find it open but to see 'THE' Neil Perry sitting there enjoying pizza with his family. The pizza was amazing and reminded me of my long lost holiday in Italy (particularly Naples!), when I was younger and childless! The base so soft, the doughy outside, the fresh and tasty ingredients, mmmm, getting hungry again just thinking about it!!! child friendly for early evening (perfect), later crowd of travelled, foodie locals.
My favorite starter is the antipasto selction with a very tasty variety and to finish?? why the pannacotta and the chocolate torte, who would have thought I would have 3 courses at a pizzeria!! But it would be a crime, an absolute crime, not to! thank you Lucio Pizzeria for making me relive my youth and tickling my tastebuds! See you soon!

Tried the joint a couple of time I've found the pizza decently cooked but with really average topping, they should really invest in more tasty ingredients, like others!!!

Came here on friday nignt after reading so many good stuff on this site. I have to admit I'm not sure about the authenticity. Pizza was pretty boring and ingredients more on the average side. Will not rush back.

Well came here because Time out Magazine rated it Number 1 pizza, and me and my friends don't agree. Pizza is average to me and the prices for other items in the menu were expensive. The Margarita pizza is how my friend rates pizza shops and we went to another place the night before it was a lot better than this. The desserts though was Great!! Service was great also.
