Lume is a new Italian restaurant in the West Village that offers a unique dining experience. The restaurant is divided into two sections: a bar and a dining room. The bar is U-shaped and is adorned with a shower of lamps that give the space a chic and festive feel. The dining room features traditional French banquettes, beige tones, and bronze moldings for an ambiance of discreet luxury.
The menu at Lume is a balance between French classics and Italian cuisine. There are two chefs in the kitchen, one Italian and one French. The menu features dishes such as arancinis with porcini mushrooms, grilled octopus, and wagyu beef carpaccio for starters. For main courses, there are comforting pasta dishes like ziti alla bolognese and bucatini cacio e pepe, as well as more adventurous options like scallops with rosemary and risotto with sun-dried tomatoes, or chicken parmesan with fontina cheese.
The service at Lume is attentive, and the staff has been recruited from the owners' other two restaurants. The owners are a family business and are all very involved in the restaurant. They are lucky to have employees who have been loyal for years.
