• Italian • St. James

Booked 15 times today

New York City restaurateurs Pietro and Kelly Molendini took over the classic St. James farmhouse turned restaurant. The former co-owners of Vite Vinosteria in Astoria, Queens, who had moved from the city to Centerport, spent the summer renovating the dining room to a modern, clean look with neutral tones and contemporary artwork from Pietro Molendini's native Rome. They also expanded the bar from about four to 11 seats.Pietro Molendini has spent 30 years in the food industry, with a decade of that at Cipriani and stints at both Bar Pitti and Da Silvano. Along the way, he met chef Fabian Garcia Manca, who eventually headed the kitchen at Vito Vinosteria and now joins the Molendini’s in St. James. Kelly Molendini said Manca and her husband scour the tristate area and beyond for ingredients. "They are never home," she joked, and said that the pair source some of their meat from the Bronx, burrata from New Jersey and dried pasta from Italy and Sicily.Closed 11/17/2022 for private party

This cafe- actually more of an upscale Bistro-was fabulous! Each dish was made with care. Oysters on the half shell were plump and fresh.Best onion soup this side of France-thin onions in a broth w flavor, not your daily helping of salt. Mussels were in a perfect sauce, escargot was wonderful, The lobster was tender- cooked to perfection. Claves liver got raves as did the bouillabaisse. The cassoulet was fabulous in a light herb broth. Don’t miss the wonderful light & crusty bread. Great service- efficient & friendly. Desserts made w such care & not too much sugar. Passion fruit martini was excellent. Our new favorite place.

Our first time at Mama Lombardi’s, and it was a great experience! We were greeted and seated immediately. Waiter came to table within a few minutes Baked clams appetizer was excellent! My meal of linguine with white clam sauce was loaded with many clams and it was excellent! My wife and daughter loved their meals. Service was fantastic Ambiance was very nice on the rustic side. Deserts were to die for and highly recommend the Mexican coffee. We will definitely be back and will frequent the restaurant as often as possible!
