Our menu features Italian classics like wood-fired pizzas, seasonal flavors and handmade pastas — all designed to keep you cheering, singing along or laughing until your sides hurt. We serve dinner daily from 5 p.m. to 10 p.m., plus pre-event favorites for weekday lunch and weekend brunch.
The Perfect Menu for Powering Up or Celebrating After
L'Amico has evening options for everyone, no matter which meal builds the excitement or keeps it going. Try wood-fired pizzas with just the right hint of smokiness and handmade pastas dressed with flavorful sauces. Our fresh seafood, salads and wood-fired chicken are also popular choices for dinner before a Knicks game in NYC — or perfect for sharing after a Rangers victory, great comedy set or unforgettable concert.
Pair your meal with a glass of wine from our hand-selected Italian brands, a craft cocktail or a nonalcoholic beverage from the bar. Our dessert menu is also ideal for ending your meal on a sweet or savory note, with options like homemade gelati and Italian cheeses.
