    pasta fagioli
    Mary Jane R.

    Delicious lunch with a dear friend from Larchmont. Lusardi's has a very classy atmosphere. She had linguine with white clam sauce which looked so delicious, lots of whole clams. My husband had pasta bolognese which he said was good but didn't rave about it; I loved my pasta fagiole. A large portion which allowed me to take home some for dinner! The bread was warm and crusty, and they gave individual plates of olive oil for dipping. Service was slow, and we were never asked if we wanted a drink, nor if we wanted coffee/dessert. All in all a solid four star experience.

    Aperol aperitif and sparkling water.

    We went to Lusardi's all the time years ago, but switched to delivery when my mother grew ill. So what a pleasure it was to go to Lusardi's for an early dinner in person with my elderly father recently! I love so many things about this restaurant. It's chic and warm and friendly, with tiny brass lamps on each table and a manager who goes to each table greeting people. The service is attentive and polite. The food is amazing. We love all the veal dishes, especially the Vitello Martini. The pizzas are delicious. Pappardelle Bolognese is fabulous. Salads light, pretty, and perfectly dressed. A serious wine list. What's not to love? My favorite Larchmont restaurant!

    If Thanksgiving Day is for turkey and stuffing, Thanksgiving Eve is for spaghetti and meatballs. And celebrating my mother's birthday. And my brother-in-law's birthday. And my nephew's birthday. And me and my twin sister's birthday. So we assembled la familia and came to Lusardi's to enjoy an Italian feast. Upon arriving to the popular Larchmont ristorante, the host quickly escorted our group of sixteen to the private back room that they had set aside for us. Our head waiter took drink orders and returned with wine, beers, and a few cocktails. They have an impressive wine selection. Some of our group split a bottle of Super Tuscan. I kept it simple with a Peroni. Having been here before, my sister ordered appetizers for the table. She chose well. We had the carciofini fritti (crispy artichokes), meatballs, margherita pizza, and insalata della casa (house salad). The artichokes were the standouts. Very crispy and they went perfect with the marinara. For my entree, I picked the lasagna (a special for that night). I've always felt that quality shows best in a simple dish when poor cooking or ingredients have nowhere to hide, and that's how Lusardi's proved itself. The five-layer dish didn't need any gimmicks. It was just a well-executed version of the timeless classic. A nice hearty sauce and just the right amount of cheese. Traditional Italian fare made with fresh ingredients and attention to detail. That's what Lusardi's is all about. Take the meatballs for example. Classically made. No funny stuff. But they were delicious. My eighteen-month old son literally ate FIVE of them--each roughly the size of a billiard ball. Again, simplicity done right. When it came time for dessert, we weren't very hungry, but we ordered some anyway. And I'm glad we did. The tiramisu was among the best I've had. Truly stellar. A great night. A great meal, and a fun way to celebrate five birthdays at once. There's nothing like a meatball to roll into Thanksgiving.

    Nice place with good food and a friendly and attentive staff. In door and out door seating adds a nice touch. Beautiful Bar area with very expansive wine choices.

    Really is 5 Stars. I have been here several times and every time you leave with a smile and talking about the food. The Pappardelle Bolognese, Vitello Martini, Pollo Scarpariello, and of course baked clams. By the way, the broccoli will be the best you ever had. (I know that's a weird call out but you'll understand when you try it) Drinks are great, especially the espresso martini (order it without Bailey's). Service and ambience are what you would expect at a fine dining Italian restaurant...really well done. Not stuffy...just really nice.

We were a party of 7, and we all felt cared for, the staff was understanding, and attentive from the moment we sat down to leave. Each member in my party had something diffferent: 1. Chicken sandwich 2. Burger 3. Ahi tuna tacos 4. Carbonora (x2) 5. Chicken capricossa 6. Chicken Parm - and even accommodated vodka sauce instead of regular marinara sauce. Wine was nicely poured, cocktails were tasty (although I didn't love my raspberry martini) beer was cold. The restaurant was clean and tidy, and welcoming. Will be coming back ASAP!

The restaurant is small and cozy. Large metal chandeliers adorn the ceilings and it has an upscale, rustic vibe with candles on the tables. Their menu is enticing. It's Italian inspired, but has lots of variety beyond the classic dishes. The appetizers were fantastic. The crispy artichokes were airy and melted in your mouth. The brussel sprouts were deliciously crispy with a pleasantly sweet sauce. I enjoyed the pistachios on them. The eggplant fries were a unique offering and very tasty topped with crumbled parmesan cheese. They would've been even better with a dipping sauce. For my main, I had the mushroom ravioli. The sauce was rich and creamy and it was topped with sharp parmesan and arugula. I enjoyed it, but the portion size was quite small, as the dish only included four pieces of ravioli. My husband got the black linguine and enjoyed the accompanying cream sauce with shrimp and lobster. To drink, I had the queen margherita, which was nice and tangy from the passion fruit.

Last night, however, was deeply disappointing. From the start, there was pressure to place food orders quickly, even though we were just settling in. We did order appetizers and later entrees--not an unreasonable timeline--but it felt like we were being hurried for no reason. The real issue came when we ordered a gluten-free pizza with toppings. What was delivered was essentially a round piece of bread with toppings -- not remotely what we expected. We tried several times to flag down the bartender, who proved extremely difficult to get the attention of. When we finally spoke to him and explained the error, the pizza was taken back, but then... nothing. We waited. And waited. More than 30 minutes passed while the rest of us finished our meals -- and still no replacement pizza. When we brought it up again, the bartender's attitude was indifferent at best. Frustrated, I went to the hostess stand and explained the situation. To their credit, the response was immediate: a manager stepped in, apologized, offered a round of drinks on the house, and ensured the corrected dish came out quickly. That level of service--from the manager and hostess--was appreciated and helped salvage the evening, but the overall experience was the worst we've ever had at The Modern. We may go back, but it will be with hesitation. The service at the bar needs serious attention. A restaurant of this caliber should never let service--or guest experience--slip this far.
