Lavagna - New York

Always the best food in town. I had the steak, which is cooked perfectly with an excellent side of mashed poatoes and fresh vegetables. But I've also had the super fresh, simply and elegantly prepared fish and the obvously homemade pasta is excellent. Also winners: the kale Caesar salad and the artichoke appetizer. Don't forget dessert!

Got the supposel famous Rigatoni- cold and doesnt taste good and more expensivethan other stores

Some of the worst food i have ever had in this city and i have lived here my entire life this institution shamefully calls itself a resturant and yet the food fell way short of editable

I really appreciate the quality and quantity of the Rigatoni. It had so much sauce, arrived perfectly cooked and warm. Pasta can be so disgusting and congealed when you order it. I will certainly be ordering from here again it's highly reviewed for good reason.

The octopus carpaccio was weirdly sliced in my opinion. I would have preferred slices along the tentacle rather perpendicular to. Also, loved the rigatoni (pasta and sauce), but i absolutely abhor peas. Maybe consider it without peas?
