Dinner in Lynbrook- Branzino

We just returned from having dinner at a little find- Branzino- one of my favorite little places somewhat hidden away on Union Ave. in Lynbrook, NY. It is a lovely rather small restaurant-11 tables- continental cuisine.
The wait staff are all in tuxedos, and they also have one very small private table for two on second level which requires a reservation but very romantic for a special occasion !

They had a vast wine list.

Tonight, I have the dover sole- superb! I normally get the whole grilled branzino, which they filet for you table side if you so desire, but the Dover Sole sounded lovely, and it was superb. My husband had the veal chop-simply grilled- HUGE! My friends both had the specials- a Large platter of spinach fettuccini with half of a lobster, clams & shrimp in a light pink sauce- (excellent) and my other friend had the white alaskan salmon with champagne grapes-just wonderful.

We were too full to have dessert, but their homemade biscotti is always served at the end and is great with a cappuccino.

This is a great place for a special evening with friends or family for a really great dining experience. reservations are a must on Friday & Saturday nights.
