A restaurant voted the best Italian eatery in Charlotte, N.C. is coming to Huntsville early next year.

Osteria LuCa will be located in Stovehouse.

The 4,166-square-foot restaurant at 3414 Governors Dr. SW, Suite 705, will be able to seat 151 patrons, with 74 general seats, 32 at the bar, nine at the pizza bar, and 36 seats on a covered patio.

There will be 42 dedicated parking spots.

The restaurant features a menu of fresh seafood, hot and cold antipasti, artisan pizza, house-made pasta, and wood-fired meats, with specialty cocktails, craft beers, and a carefully curated selection of Italian wines.

“Expanding to a new city always brings a level of uncertainty, but we’ve seen great success in Charlotte due to our commitment to quality and customer service,” Ken Martino of Osteria LuCa Charlotte said. “When looking to grow, we knew we needed a partner who shared our vision and values. Power Brands Hospitality Group, with their strong presence and community focus in Huntsville and Birmingham, was the perfect fit.”

Power Brands Hospitality Group has handled deals with brands Biscuit Belly, Urban Cookhouse, Super Chix, Prohibition, Melt, Phil Sandoval’s, Nothing Bundt Cakes, Five Guys, Nothing but Noodles and Grimaldi’s Pizzeria.

Kumar Patel, managing partner of Power Brands said Osteria LuCa will “elevate the overall dining scene in Huntsville.”

“Our goal has always been to bring unique and quality-driven dining experiences to this market, and Osteria LuCa is a perfect fit. Its commitment to authenticity, fresh ingredients, and a welcoming atmosphere aligns seamlessly with the values that Power Brands Hospitality Group represents. We’re confident that locals will embrace this Italian-inspired concept just as they have our other brands,” he said.
