    Lusardi's sets itself apart from all of the great Italian options. We selected a nice table outside to enjoy the weather and bustle of the city for people watching. The food is outstanding, of course; but, the service was out of this world and made us feel like family. Icing on the cake was complimentary glasses of champagne to help us celebrate my wife's birthday.

    I think I will dream of the food at Lusardi's for the rest of my life. That was some of the best Italian I've had!!! The gnocchi especially was to die for. Pillowy and light, just how I like gnocchi. But the sauce was creamy, deliciously flavored, not overly salty. Inside ambiance is perfect for dinner and catching up. Not too loud. Neat, organized, old school, feels upscale. I took off a star because the service was so-so. The waiter never even gave us his name. Didn't spend much time with us. Waited a long time to order. Overall I would absolutely go back. You should definitely go!!!!

    Lusardi's is my favorite Italian Restaurant in New York City. Anytime I am in the Upper East Side (UES) of NYC, I will visit Lusardi's for lunch or dinner. It is a good thing the owners did not provide me with their mobile number. I would have them on speed dial to be sure they hold a table for me at a moment notice. Old traditional style Italian fare, served on a busy street on second avenue between East 77th and East 78th street. The restaurant ambience is cozy traditional Italian cuisine. On this visit we shared two pasta's, Paccheri in Salsa Affumicata and Ravioli (porcini and mushrooms in a truffle sauce). Oh, my goodness, those two combo pastas were delicious. Enough said, I should avoid talking about this impressive restaurant because I need my table available when I am in town.
