Their sandwiches are toasted on this great panini like bread and you definitely leave feeling full. The staff are friendly and was patient while I looked over the menu. I ended up getting the brisket sandwich which came with a bag of chips (around $16). I love how this area is located in this quaint village of hastings on Hudson. The food was very tasty. The brisket sandwich had succulent meat that fell apart amid a bed of cheddar and a honey barbecue sauce. The portions to me are kinda big so I ate half for lunch and the other for dinner.

After being greeted with a smile by Antonio one of the twin brothers who own the shop I ordered. The owners can't be nicer and show a real love of food. My wife got an eggplant wrap with roasted red peppers and I got the Roast Beast a roastbeef on garlic chiabatta, both were delicious. The eggplant paper thin and the housemade roastbeef rare and super tender. The sandwiches were very large, but after eating half we both continued to eat the whole sandwich. I also had their potato salad and this had the right consistency and seasoning. They also have some nice desserts, some homemade some from good sources. I asked about their breakfast being good, "i am making homemade English muffins for the morning" The tiny space with a few tables has Italian products that are well chosen breadsticks, pasta, etc. Oh the sandwiches come with your choice of flavors. We are no longer skeptical and will be back soon.

The baked clams and mussels were outstanding, and the crusty bread was perfect for soaking up every drop of sauce. I added jalapeños to the Snow White pizza and it was incredible. The dough had the perfect chew and flavor. My boyfriend's chicken parm was massive--two huge cutlets--and easily a 10/10. The seafood pasta was equally delicious. Dessert was the perfect finish: frozen espresso, refreshing lemon sorbet, and a giant tiramisu that's big enough for a crowd. My only small complaint is that guests pack their own leftovers. At this level, I think the staff should handle that. Otherwise, everything was fantastic. We'll definitely be back!

My friend and I stopped by La Lanterna on April 12, 2026 during a long bike ride for lunch. We…read moredidn't have bike locks with us, so I went inside to ask the manager, Bill, if we could leave our bikes in the (closed) patio area since we were worried about them being stolen. Unfortunately, he was extremely dismissive and simply said no, then added that there were no tables available for us--which was odd considering the group right after us got seated immediately. I'm not sure if it was how we were dressed or what, but his overall attitude felt very cold and unwelcoming. We ended up sitting at the bar, and to be fair, Bill did help coordinate with the bartender Ana to get us seats together, which I appreciated. Ana herself was kind and attentive, though when we asked for food recommendations, she mostly just said "everything is great." I personally prefer a bit more honest guidance. For food, we shared the Hot Honey Roni Sicilian, Caesar salad, and calamari fritti. The pizza was definitely the highlight--super delicious and satisfying, especially as my first time trying that style. The Caesar salad was good, but for $16, I found the portion a bit small. The calamari was also solid, though we didn't love the sauce it came with. While we were eating, Bill noticed where we had placed our bikes (near the stairs where we could keep an eye on them) and came over rather abruptly, asking why they were in "his garden." Even after my friend apologized, he just walked away. His overall presence throughout the visit really hurt the experience--definitely not the kind of hospitality you expect. Overall, the experience was okay. The drinks were good, and my friend and I always make the best of things, but for the price point (about $80 each with two drinks and tip), I expected better service and slightly more generous portions. I'd consider going back, especially if we're biking in the area again--but next time, we'll definitely bring bike locks...and avoid the garden

I originally rated them one star with the review below. However I took them up on their offer to…read moremake things right and ordered another pizza along with a Caesar salad and a rigatoni bolognese. The pizza was good. 6.5 out of 10. The rigatoni was tasty but the pasta was overcooked. Maybe that's a function of getting pasta delivered where it keeps cooking on the way... I like how they did the Caesar. Shaved parmigiana with the (very good) dressing on the side. All in all, the pizza roll and the Caesar salad were the best things we had. The pizza was good, not great (crust was a little soft. Cheese was ok. Super light on the sauce). I wouldn't get the pasta to go - maybe try again for eat-in. The cheesecake piece was insultingly small. Original 1 star rating: AVOID!!!!!!!!! I ordered online and had the thin crust marinara and basil pizza and I added extra toppings on half. I also ordered a pizza roll with chicken and a piece of cheesecake. THE PIZZA HAD NO CHEESE!!! (Picture attached). And when I called to ask about it, they said that's by design. You would think if they were selling a pizza with no cheese (for a higher price than the regular pizza), it would say "NO CHEESE". Also, they put toppings on the whole pizza. So dinner with my kids (who only eat cheese pizza) was ruined. I do want to point out that the pizza roll was very good. However, the cheesecake piece was tiny (picture attached). After checking the menu to confirm that it doesn't say "no cheese", I called back and they said "thanks for the feedback". I gave them two chances to make it right. After a long day of travel and looking forward to a good slice of NY Pizza, this was a huge letdown. UPDATE: They called me this morning to apologize. They thought they had taken that menu item down exactly because of this kind of confusion over the cheese but a recent systems update seems to have inadvertently added it back to their online menu without the proper explanation. They have offered me a free pizza to make this right. The explanation and the offer seem reasonable and genuine. I will give them another shot.

This wasn't my first time to Italian Oven. When traveling south from Boston thru NYC to points…read morefurther south, staying in Westchester is a nice respite. But whether you're traveling through or live nearby, you need to go to this place. The location is great as it's out of town (and this is a plus, in my opinion), the dining room is vast with a great bar set up, open kitchen, lots of tables and a fun environment. But, more importantly, the food is amazing. Yes, their pizzas are cooked to perfection, with great tasting sauce, and crust that is crisp the way it should be. However, the highlight of the appetizer options is the chicken wings. These aren't standard chicken wings; these are cooked in the pizza oven, not oven baked. Totally changes the taste! I've had two different pasta options (Penne Vodka is my favorite) and others have had the Bolognese and loved it. The Orecchiette Sausage and Broccoli Rabe is also amazing. But, what really made this latest visit fantastic was our server, Andrew. He was friendly, attentive, a great guide when it came to suggestions of the menu, described the special cocktails accurately. He made 'eating out' into a wonderful experience. And because of him, (oh ok, also because of the food) I'd definitely come back.

But since we wrapped up with errands in the area, Scaramella's was it. Located in a mini strip mall in Dobbs Ferry, Scaramella's is very old-school- but with a splash of class and then some. Once you pass the foyer, their bar area greets you followed by their large dining room. At about 5pm on a Saturday, you can be seated with no issues. Any time after that, folks start piling up. Our server Anne Marie was no bull-shitter; got to the chase when she gave me a hush-hush tip on a Pear Salad I was eyeing. She's my girl alright. Our appetizers, were plentiful and tasty. Forget our main plates- because if you think you'll be getting a polite portion of pasta or any meal at that- think again. I honestly don't know if hub's spinach pasta was homemade- but that sucker was good. My $40 Swordfish+fresh carrots with an unexpected corn+ spinach medley, was tasty and abundant. Actually, I had leftovers. Can I also mention that these folks don't play around with their pours because my Lemon Drop was potent! Listen, I don't care that Scaramella's is located in strip mall or that my auntie-in-law didn't enjoy her meal years ago. From the looks of it, this place is happy-loud and has character. And no, it's not totally easy to park outside. That aside, our meals were satisfying, well-priced and the happy chaos, is all part of Scaramella's local charm.
