Our server Luke was so nice and attentive. My friends and I came in during santacon to eat and drink so we didn’t forget to eat and Luke made sure we were taken care of and when one of the drinks was made with a substitute he immediately fixed the problem and got us a new drink.

Long Islands best family style restaurant, rooted in classic Italian family style fashion, features the best from each Italian Region. We anticipate the cooler weather game of veal and homemade pasta, burnt vegetables and mixed greens; Our fish is fresh daily and the tastiest clams you'll ever try, live and kickin’ soft shell crabs arriving in season, followed by summer’s fresh bean salad, tomatoes and mozzerella. Regional, heritage ingredients and gracious service have been celebrated here since our opening in 2012. We hope to welcome you at the table and add a little smile to your day.

About the restaurant

What is Lavagna? In Italian, it means "blackboard". That's where we put our menu, and specials change with the seasons. Look around too... the walls are also blackboards, decorated with artwork by Mike Delaney of Nyack.

After-work drinks, a date night, or a friend meetup all have their home at Lavagna. Our quiet, intimate setting is perfect for conversation and relaxation.

Pull up a barstool and have a glass of wine from our extensive vault. Our wine cellar is world class with over 125 labels available by the bottle and 25 by the glass. Please ask about our full roster of Italian craft beers that will surprise you with their complexity and depth of flavor.

We will pair your beverage with exquisite dishes, salumeria boards with meats and cheeses or a full caviar tasting for a special occasion. We also offer Roman-style flatbread pizzas and other small plates such as pastas, seafood, and Mediterranean specialties.

The pizza was lite and delicious. The meatballs, octopus and shrimp were all excellent small plates. We shared a charcuterie board for two (we had a party of four) and there was plenty to sample. Wine list was nice and reasonable.
