Former Luchento's owner honored - Examiner, 10/23/08:
In 1989, Luchento stopped driving and concentrated on training horses and opened Luchento's Country Italian Restaurant on Route 33 in Millstone, which is within walking distance to the training centers at Gaitway and Showplace farms. Luchento's Restaurant thrived under the management of the Luchento family for 17 years and was sold in September 2008.
I had lunch there a few weeks ago with friends, not knowing it had been sold until just before. Now, it's your typical Italian restaurant - the cajun and creole menu is gone. There's one on every corner in New Jersey, like churches in Florida.

I got a sense that the new owners were working on bringing back some of the more popular dishes. Jeff always got Steak Arturo and I got the Farfalle Dasaro.

Restaurant review.
