"Lucia’s is the kind of absolute scene that will either fuel a new flame or reignite the flirt appeal of whoever keeps leaving orphan socks on your bathroom floor. It could be vinyl soundtrack, the grapefruit Jarritos palomas, or the taco-ready crowd swarming the courtyard, but there’s a proper frisson in the air at this lively Hackney Wick taqueria. Plus, all expert matchmakers approve of Lucia’s golden couple: the beef barbacoa tacos and an ice-cold bottle of Victoria." - heidi lauth beasley, rianne shlebak
