Luci's at the Orchard

These guys have not put out a breakfast item I don't love! They are also an event venue I've considered and are super helpful with planning. I love the outdoor space and the gift shop is a surprisingly good place to get gifts!

My friends and I decided to go to Luci's after a hike and it was honestly so worth it. We were exhausted, tired, and hungry. Both the food and the ambiance here was energizing and refreshing. It has great outside scenery perfect to sit and eat outside, but there is also space inside as well if that is to your liking. It was a very vibrant brunch experience with warm and welcoming service. The chilaquiles I ordered were flavorful, paired with crispy tortillas balanced with a satisfying drizzle of white sauce. I also ordered the chai latte but it was decent--pleasant but not exceptional. Staff service was great and easy to work with, they added to the relaxed, welcoming vibe. What makes this place unique is 100% the atmosphere. Being able to dine amidst such a large area of lush greenery and the orchard's natural charm made the experience unforgettable. Perfect for group gatherings.

Such a fun place to come hang out with friends! We always have our screen actors, guild meetings here once a month on the outdoor patio. We grab a drink inside and sit outside in the sunshine and enjoy watching birds nibbling away on snacks left behind on the tables. There's a good selection of hot drinks and cold drinks as well as snacks and breakfast items. On the inside there are very cute things to purchase from books to small gifts, clothing, cups, etc. Definitely would recommend this location, especially out on the patio since it's speckled with trees and shrubbery, they also have a splash pad for the kids and a dog friendly patio.

Fresh ingredients in freshly prepared, made to order entrees. Great selection of healthy meal options in a clean, casual, reasonably priced setting. Servings are a bit small, so a side dish is appropriate. Selection of smoothies as an alternative and they have a separate ice cream counter for a sweet treat. Very laid back with lots of covered, outside seating. The birds are very annoying, but to be expected given the way they are set up.

I would give this a 3.5/5 stars but went for the four because the place itself is beautiful, service is pretty fast, and I like the random items in the store. The food is where I am disappointed. I had the acai bowl and it was just okay, nothing special. The bowl it came in was pretty and I appreciate the presentation but I would not order this again. My mom had the avocado toast and was not a huge fan, said there was a lack of flavor. She didn't have the cheese on it so I know that would've helped but she also didn't really like the eggs and she's a bigger egg fan. I like how the fruit bowl isn't just melon, there was pineapple and grapes. My dad had the gluten free French toast, and he said it was pretty good! Still nothing super special but the bread wasn't crumbly and dry which was nice. Obviously not as thick bread as the non gluten free version, but that's just gluten free bread. We came to the conclusion the food was "ordinary".

This is our second time at this Luci's location and thus far we have had great food! We opted to try their new wrap, it's not even listed on their online menu yet. It had crispy chicken, tomatoes and bacon on a sundried tomato wrap. It was really good and full of flavor. The fries were perfectly crispy, no complaints at all. We also tried their cinnamon roll which was soft and doughy, with plenty of frosting on top. I am assuming it's made from Noble bread company since I saw the staff removing it from a box labeled with their name. Inside is very welcoming and the outside offers plenty of seating and a fun splash pad for the kids. Only off putting thing, for some reason this is the second time we walked into the restaurant and it smelled like sewage? Not sure what's with their pipes but they definitely need to fix it because the smell is horrible.

How is it I've lived here for almost 10 years and have never been here? Well a dear friend took me for lunch today and we had a fabulous afternoon sitting outside while eating our meal. Ending that meal with dessert from the gelato shop! From coffee to sweets to breakfast and lunch this is the place to go. Parking can get a bit dicey but I'm looking forward to going again.

Food: Excellent, I ordered the turkey lurkey sandwich, although I meant to order the turkey burger, but the sandwich was delicious. I had them add jalapenos, which added a nice & spicy kick. The fries were disappointing, not hot or fresh, but I was with colleagues, so I didn't want to be the one complaining about the food, since I was the one to recommend this restaurant, plus they are normally great. I live in CA but travel to AZ for meetings & love coming here. Service: Excellent, everyone was professional and friendly Ambiance: super cute and casual place with a little store, full of stuff to buy, great place for small gifts. Price: moderate
