San Mateo Restaurant Guide

Luceti's is owned by locals Bill & Carole Flaherty. They have owned the restaurant since 2000. They truly feel that the guests who dine at Luceti's are coming to their home for dinner and want guests to be treated as such. Carole worked for the original owner of Luceti's on 25th Avenue for many years and was eventually able to buy the restaurant after his passing. This fulfilled a dream Carole's had since childhood, owning a restaurant of her own.

Many of the recipes at Luceti's were created by the late Roger Bertola who taught them to many of the same chefs that are in the kitchen today. Roger Bertola founded the legendary Doro's and Ruggero's in San Francisco. He was also executive chef at the Iron Horse on Maiden Lane for 10 years. He has been awarded a citation from the City of San Francisco and the State of California for his contributions to the restaurant industry in the area of culinary skill and achievement. The staff in the kitchen take great pride in producing meals that only come back to the kitchen when the plate is empty!
