Cuccias

Cozy ambiance, wonderful food and friendly service.

The BEST prawn meal I have had in a long time. Perfectly seasoned and cooked.

Veal Parmigiano was excellent, but the clam chowder was the best I've ever had!

They make the best marsala I've had in a long time!

Excellent food, wine and service. Will eat here again when next in the area.

Best place to get a quick and delicious meal on the fall

This place is so great. The food is great and so is the service ^^

Awesome Italian restaurant with great seafood dishes. Great wine selection best in area

Gina and her team are always friendly and accommodating, and the food is second to none!

The food and ambiance were great, EXCEPT It was Very LOUD!!!!

Great service and food! Gina is the best!!!

Incredibly friendly staff, great food and awesome ambiance. Every meal is always fresh and tasty. We love Cuccia’s. For those that don’t, stay away please.

Early in the season, May 10, and open restaurants were scarce. We found this place and OH MY GAWSH, great menu, great wine list, great service and great food! AWESOME

The food is always wonderful. If you are a wine lover you will be very happy. The patio after 7pm is cool and great to sit on.

Warm, friendly. Owner was cordial & informative and had a great wine selection. Food was excellent. A treasure in the area to frequent.

Great food, service and atmosphere!!! Make reservations, LM and they call you back.

Are you kidding? This place is fabulous. Never had a better pizza. Their meatballs and lasagna are the best for many miles and service excellent. Go.

Wonderful menu. Great food terrific staff

Wonderful food, service and ambiance! Gina is so sweet as is the rest of the staff! Always a must when in town!

What a gem!!!! This place is absolutely fantastic ! The food is completely amazing, i'm blown away every time, not something you would expect from a little mountain restaurant. You feel like your part of the family when your here, the service is wonderful.

Very friendly service and the owner helps out as well, to ensure your meal is good one. It gets crowded, so call ahead.

Perfect in every way. Feels like going to family's house for dinner. Warm, friendly, and excellent pizza.

We've been here several times now the past couple of years and have enjoyed it greatly every time! Awesome service and some of the best tasting food ever !!!

An excellent choice for takeout and dining in. The food is delicious and the staff is over the top friendly. The ambiance is quaint and charming. Hands down one of the top restaurants in the area.

Our favorite restaurant!! Great food, amazing staff! Wonderful experience every time we visit! Coming from the Monterey Bay area, we rate this at the top of all our dining experiences! Visit soon and often!!

Greeted at the door with a big smile! Sat at a lovely table and service was impeccable. When inquiring about wine, Gina, the owner spent time with us sharing her extensive knowledge about the wine, honing in on our tastes and we ended up with an AMAZING bottle of wine! The crab cake appetizer was delish, our entrees superb and the dessert...I am still reeling! Topped off the evening with a lovely Rodney Strong Port - we will be back and tell all our friends about this Devine restaurant that Graeagle is so lucky to have and we are proud to have in Plumas County!! THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK you for making our evening so very special and yummy Gina and Company of Cuccia's!!!

This is our favorite restaurant. We travel an hour and a half to get there. Great Italian cuisine wonderful wine selection worth the travel to get there.

Gina's place is excellent. Always! Never had a bad meal yet. I order takeout sometimes and it is still prepared beautifully. Thank you Gina.

Great restaurant, food was delicious. For being up in the mountains it was a winner.

We went camping for a week. And we went to this restaurant twice it was delicious. 🥰

We had a delicious meal off the Italian dominated menu. Veal parmigiana was very good, as was the salmon. Reservations are suggested. Beautiful place and great staff.

Always busy, but Gina always tries to get us in. Such a shortage of good eateries in our area, so make sure you make a reservation. Foods great!

Absolutely delicious pizza with the nice thin crispy crust. Very tasty cheese and toppings. The owner spent time with us at the bar just with nice conversation. Can't wait to go back again.

Arguably the best restaurant in Plumas County. I had the chicken scallopine. It was delicious, but the portion size is on the smaller side. My wife and brother both had the garlic chicken Alfredo, which they loved, and the portion size was generous. My mother had shrimp Alfredo, which she was very happy with, and the portion size on that was also very generous. We got our 3 year old daughter a small pizza that I shared with her. The pizza is good, but it is a typical wood fired pizza and is a bit heavy on the cheese, so it's real floppy, which is not my favorite. That said, if you like wood fired neopolitanish style pizza, you will like it. It's a quality pizza, with quality toppings and prepared well. It's just not my favorite style pizza. If you haven't tried this place, I highly recommend it. Edit: we have now tried other pizzas there, and I can't retract what I said about the cheese pizza my daughter got, as that was the pizza she got, but we have gotten the A14 3 times now and it is excellent! The dough has a great crisp exterior with a nice soft chew of the interior. The blend of toppings is perfect. If you get it to go it is susceptible to getting "boxed," but just pop it in the oven for 4 or 5 minutes at 400 to recrisp when you get home and it is as good as eating at the restaurant. It may be my favorite pizza of all time.

I have never been disappointed here. the staff is awesome the owner is awesome. the wine list is great the food is great good selection on the menu. if you are ever in the Graeagle area it is a must you wont be sorry

The food, service and setting is simply wonderful. We enjoyed all that we ordered. The bread with blue cheese and baked garlic is to die for! Will be back again. Definitely a popular place, reservations are truly needed.

Terrific restaurant, delicious food, great wine selection, and super friendly staff! A true gem!

Great food. Lots of choices. Servers are friendly and efficient. We were a party of 10 and they handled us very well.

The salmon was excellent. Great flavored food throughout the meal. Loved the bread...both garlic and with delicious dipping sauce. Wonderful experience...staff was very professional and we loved dining on the deck for Father’s Day. I look forward to going back...soon.

We had wonderful service from the time we entered the restaurant until we left. The food was delicious and we sat outside in the screened area. The scenery was stunning and we were not rushed through dinner. We had a great time and there was a long line of people to come in as we left. Everyone had masks on and were standing 6 feet apart. The parking lot was full. We arrived at 5 o'clock with no trouble getting seated with our reservation.

This was our second dining experience here and it was the second time we left saying, I love this place! The food, staff, service, wine, price all really very good. Fresh ingredients, great use of herbs, nice variety of sauces. I honestly do not see how you could make a bad menu choice. I look forward to my next visit, I already know what I am going to try next!!

Food was good and well portioned, good selection of Italian food and wines, and service was good with the waitress able to answer our various questions. Glad we got there early as it seemed quite popular with a slight wait by the time we were leaving. Would certainly visit again.

Best experience in the area! Family owned and exceptional. Beautiful interior and nice outdoor dining. Food delicious and good wine!

Had a lovely dinner there this past week. Felt safe about cleanliness & seating - they set it up nicely in their main dining area. I don't like eating outside - I'm happiest eating at the bar - so it was nice to eat here. Food & service very good.

The food was amazing, and so was our service. It was an extremely busy night, so we waited a while for our food, but it was worth it. The calamari, halibut and veal were outstanding.

Amazing food, wine and service. Everything is very fresh and the menu has a wide range of delicious dishes. Jade, our waitress, was simply amazing and attentive. Don't pass this place up. Cuccia's is the best restaurant around.

Wonderful selection. Love that the salads are served on cold plates. Such a nice touch. Never disappointed food always good, also you can order gluten free if need be

Everything I go to see my sister in Graeagle I have to ear there. It's a MUST! Best cheesy bread and meatballs ever. Staff are fantastic! I'll see you this week.

Love the staff, love the food, love the wine, love the excellent service. Fantastic place to eat and see old friends and meet new ones.

Our families had a fabulous dinner here over the holidays! Meatballs are definitely worth ordering! Wine list is great (and I work in the wine biz = several of my clients wines are on the list). We ordered a wide variety of dishes and all were excellent! We'll be back for sure...

What a WONDERFUL dinner we enjoyed at cuccia’s! The food & service was fabulous! A cozy family atmosphere , delicious food & reasonable prices in a lovely setting! I had one of the best pizzas ever & my friend had chicken parmigiana. They offer an extensive appetizer, entree & dessert menu. It’s just a wonderful place & I look forward to my next visit!👍👍👍⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

🤌 We had reservations for 6 and the table was ready for us as soon as we arrived. Attentive and professional service from server and support staff. Everyone enjoyed our meals. The Chicken Saltimbocca and lentil soup were fantastic. Highly recommended!

We went here for our 26th anniversary dinner. We loved it. It starts w good sourdough, great garlic bread & nice wine menu. We enjoyed Frank Family. Chicken Saltiumbocca was prepared differently but really good. Veal Parmesan really good also. Dessert was good too. Highly recommended We actually went back the next night. Service was excellent!

One of the best pizzas I ever had. Get the Sicilian thin crust - Spring Garden, so good. The Farmer's Market Salad is very good as well.

Great atmosphere, great service and food was delicious! Reservations recommended.

Excellent italian food. Very nice people. Veal and bread were especially excellent.

Outstanding Italian authentic restaurant. Probably the best authentic Marsala and Fettuccine Alfredo I've had....EVER. light but tasty . GreT ambiance. Small but intimate.

10-10 would reccomend and come back again. Check out their 1/2 off wine Wednesdays.

Having a reservation is important! The staff is unbelievably kind! The food is excellent and it's a lovely location with various seating options

This is a nice Italian restaurant. I just got a calzone to go after a bike ride. They sat me at the bar, gave me some water and were so nice getting my to go order while the restaurant was busy. I'd say go there for a nice meal. Food was delicious!

Absolutely wonderful! My Husband and I went here for the first time for his birthday, we can’t say enough good things. The owner is so sweet, the food is delicious and our waitress Traci was fantastic. The meatball appetizer was to die for and the pesto salmon over pasta was fantastic. We also did a pizza to try them out and they were 10/10.

What a fantastic place. The food was amazing but the staff was out of this world! The restaurant was booked pretty solid with reservations, but Gina went out of her way to find us a table (which was beautiful on the screened porch) and the staff was attentive and friendly. My husband said the clam chowder was the best he's ever had and the spinach salad was delicious. And that was just the start. Great food, great service, great atmosphere, but call ahead because they are always busy.

This is a fun and family friendly restaurant. It’s just about the only place in the area that’s open almost year-round. So many choices and each one I’ve tried has been delicious. The garlic bread, chicken piccata, fettuccine Alfredo, meatballs,… well I could go on, all delicious! The servers are incredibly friendly and are really particularly capable during high occupancy evenings. In summer they have romantic outdoor seating under a gazebo. I highly recommend Cuccia’s. Gina and staff thank you!!

One of my best experiences I’ve had and I used to manage restaurants and cook for restaurants. Your lemon cello cake was out of this world. I had the shrimp scampi. Which is fabulous And my girlfriend had Gonza chicken Everyone was friendly and no bad vibes at all The hostess was wonderful with the accommodations. She let us sit outside all the way around the best experience I’ve had in a long time so thank you.

Good crowd, and busy for servers on a Tuesday evening. We walked right in to our group table reservation. The food fresh, delicious. The salad greens are served cold and crunchy! Service was prompt at all the normal intervals. Server attention after food placed for a bit was tedious for myself and 1 other, we had questions about items not present within our meal. She received her Salmon for her salad, I ate my meal as served. Great wine and beer, we had both. Everybody in our group were very pleased with the deliciousness of their meals!

Enjoyed a light dinner. The personal size pizza was more the I could eat. Next time I will try the extensive wine cellar.

Just love this locally run restaurant.. Food is good and service is excellent

Very good Italian food and service was fast and friendly.

Great food, great service, and the staff is wonderful.

Nice to get to sit down at a place that actually brings you bread with oil and balsamic again. Veal that is not ground up!. A chicken and vegetable soul that has wonderful flavor. I will he coming back

Wonderful food, excellent service and lovely ambiance. I only gave it 4 stars because of the price. Just be prepared for sticker shock but the experience is totally worth it!

It was absolutely fabulous food and great service we had our final host dinner there and it was spacious friendly and a wonderful place to go.

Great roadhouse vibe with first-rate menu. Crossroads location and rock lot parking add to the atmosphere. Mix of locals and visitors gives Cuccia's a cosmopolitan feel.

Pleasant, very nice food for the price. Lots of wines I guess but don't drink so that was wasted on us. Sprite was flat.

Great food and service! I would have given it 5 stars but nobody gets 5 stars! 😂 I got a pizza and the kids got calzones, the food was amazing, even the dipping bread and oil!

Fun place to be. More sophisticated vibe for Plumas County. I really enjoyed the split pea soup it was magical. The spaghetti and meatballs are pretty basic not noteworthy. Great place for date night! Definitely will be returning eventually.

It's nice but not the most authentic. It's attention to detail that gets a little lost.... at least in my scampi dish. Grape tomatoes we're run of the mill, so then not super flavorful. Also super al dente and not blistered. BUT, the flavor of the dish in it's entirety was pretty good. Nice service.

My husband and I had a fantastic date night here! There was a beautiful view from the deck. Cuccia's is very Italian. They offer gormet pizzas and pastas. However, I was torn between the steaks and seafood choices as well. There is something delicious for everyone, including beer, wine and desert!

Excellent service, delicious food.

Excellent service, delicious food.

The food had no taste been he few times and was very tasty but night not so much

Dinner was mostly good. The surloin steak was the only beef on the menu in terms of a steak dinner or surf and turf. The steak was very tough, clearly not worth the money spent on that family meal. The service was wonderful, but I would certainly suggest a filet on the menu.

The food was good. They accommodated me and made the pasta dairy free. The actual waitstaff were excellent but the hostess/owner? Seemed offended by my presence (I’d been doing field biology in the forest but did clean up a bit).

Usually good food but very noisy. Three of the last four times we we seated next to the kitchen entrance. My wife stared at the bathroom doors and I looked at a dirty blank wall and some old metal roofing put up to block the kitchen. Wait staff constantly hit or kicked my chair as they went in and out of the kitchen. I did not receive one “sorry” when they did it. We spent $1500 dollars on employee biz gift cards a few years back. Definitely won’t do that again. We’re not going back. Be prepared for sticker shock; our wine was marked at $8 a glass but were charged $12 a glass. Waitress said $8 was the old price... we spent $100 for a chicken salad and a pasta dish, 2 glasses of wine and two beers. And we were seated in the worst seats in the place. I tried to email Gina today but Cuccias doesn’t list their email info on their site that hasn’t been updated in almost five years.

We had reservations at 6pm. We arrived on time and it looked like they were not expecting us. Sat us at the high table and we waited and waited and waited. We got water but no drinks. After 15 minutes when no one came by I waved down a bus person and asked where our waitress was. She came by and took our drink, appetizer and food order at one time. Another person came by with drinks and we were forgotten again. After another 15 minutes I stopped another bus person and ask her to check on our order. The waitress then came by and said it was coming up. Other tables had sat, ordered and were already eating in the time we waited. Food was ok, nothing to write home about. We will not be going back. They did comp our desert.

We have had great experiences in the past and have always been amazed how good it was, However tonight we had the Calamari piccata. Didn't tast like any piccata sauce we have ever had. Tasted like it was made with worschester . Not good. Hope they can figure out the problem. RS

Went for my 70th birthday. I was so excited as I heard great things. We were seated for 20 minutes before we even got water or a menu. Another 20 min for someone to take our order. At least 30 for our salad. Then our entree. My husband's steak was very tough. My pasta sauce was watery with little flavor. All 4 of us were disappointed in the food. Very bland. After being there 2 1/2 hours we finally got a dessert menu but no one came by to take our order. So we asked for the ck and left without dessert for my birthday. I rarely leave comments but this was so disappointing.

We did not eat here! Walked in-not knowing we needed reservations-we are not from around here. The lady at the check in was extremely rude and treated us like we were stupid for not making reservations. I don’t think I would ever go back even with those precious reservations!

The steak and shrimp were awful, wouldn't recommend it to anyone

Amazing food. five stars. Super snobby horrible service, I felt like a inconvenience to the staff, still tipped 25 percent. Got turned away twice. Will never go back.

We are locals. Always enjoyed Cuccia's. Never again. Two of the four dinners were not good. One was so salty it was inedible. Pasta on two of the dinners was less than luke warm. When we asked waitress to tell chef of our complaints it was obvious she couldn't care less. So of course we will not return. Too bad.
