The best lunch in Adelaide.
A rewarding pause in your day to savour honest, flavourful food. Built around quality and community.
More than a midday meal.
At Luigi Delicatessen, we view lunch beyond being a midday meal. It's a rewarding pause in your day to savour honest, flavourful food. Often called the best lunch spot in Adelaide, our menu is built around quality and community.
In Naples, food and family are inseparable, and that spirit lives on at Luigi's. When guests walk in, they're not just customers; they're treated like old friends.
Four reasons regulars come back.
Fresh pasta, daily
Rolled in the kitchen each morning: tagliatelle, gnocchi, ravioli.
Italian classics
Lasagna, parmigiana, polpette, the dishes Nonna would recognise.
Daily specials
Built around what arrived at the door: fresh, seasonal, honest.
The deli case
Salumi, cheeses, panino made to order, sweets from the bench.
“Food made with love that reaches the soul.”
Common questions about lunch.
Do you take lunch bookings?
Yes, we recommend booking ahead, especially for weekday lunches with a larger group. Smaller tables can often walk in.
What's on the lunch menu?
Our lunch menu changes with the seasons and what's tasting best on the day. You'll always find a mix of fresh pasta, Italian classics and daily specials.
Do you serve brunch?
We do. Breakfast and brunch run Monday to Friday from 6:30am. There's no weekend daytime service: Saturday is dinner only and we're closed Sunday.
Do you accommodate dietary needs?
Absolutely. We're always happy to accommodate gluten-free, vegetarian, vegan and other dietary needs where we can. Mention it when you book.
Where are you located?
You'll find us right in the Adelaide CBD at 43 Franklin Street. It's easy to reach, with parking options nearby and public transport close by.
