Luca Cini celebrates a decade of flavor


Ten years ago, in 2014, Luca Cini opened his namesake restaurant in Phuket. Fresh off the boat, the Italian sommelier and wine trader was captivated by the island and immediately spotted an exciting opportunity. It was a time when Phuketians were taking their first steps into the world of fine drinks and discovering the exquisite creations of Bacchus.

“Che opportunità!” Luca exclaimed, diving into a new adventure.

Snap back to today, and Luca Cini’s name is known to nearly everyone in Phuket’s golden area of Bang Tao. As of 2024, Luca Cini – A Wine Story, is a symbol of authentic traditional Italian dining.

Today, Luca Cini – A Wine Story is not just a celebrated destination – it’s quite literally a celebrating destination.

This festive season, Maestro Luca, his inspired Chef Bruna, and the dedicated team invite everyone to join in honoring their milestone anniversary.

A sanctuary of passion and flavor, Luca Cini – A Wine Story is more than a business story. It is a personal story of those who build this beloved Phuket institution and led it to the glory of being recognized among Phuket’s most authentic Italian venues offering traditional food and exquisite drinks.

When asked what birthday gift he’d love for the anniversary, Luca laughs sincerely.


“I already have it. It’s you, dining at Luca Cini – A Wine Story,” he says with a smile.
