My family and I have been going to Luigi’s in Westbury for a few years now, and it has always been a wonderful dining spot for lunch and dinner! There is a good amount of options to choose from. I have also went here with my partner, and we are able to eat gluten-free here, too! Although those options are a lot more limited, we greatly enjoy the Gluten-free Lemon Pepper Chicken Pasta each time!
Every time that we went, the service was always great. They checked in on our table and made sure all the drinks and food were good! Luigi’s has such warm and delicious breadsticks that we greatly enjoy with their herbs and olive oil. My family and I get the Mozzarella Sticks, and they are so so good too! They are nice and crispy on the outside with hot, stretchy cheese on the inside. It pairs wonderfully with the marinara and/or ranch sauces!
On one of the times that I went with my partner, the server did provide breadsticks, but once we asked for gluten-free options they made sure if we still wanted them! We really appreciated that since it gave us an option on what to do with it. Thankfully, I was able to take it home for my family and I since we do not necessarily need to eat gluten-free.
My parents love the Chicken Marsala Pasta—so much so that they ask me about it any time I am at another Italian restaurant. However, Luigi’s is always the one place that has their favorite dish! My sibling usually got a Pepperoni Pizza and greatly enjoys that as well!
I have tried the Chicken Alfredo, Chicken Marsala, Gluten-free Lemon Pepper Chicken, Florentine, and Tortellini Pastas before. Out of all of them I would highly recommend the Chicken Marsala, Gluten-free Lemon Pepper Chicken, and Florentine Pastas!
The chicken here is always nicely cooked with a delicious, more crispy outer layer. However, it is still juicy! The vegetables are cooked well, too. For the Gluten-free Lemon Pepper Chicken Pasta, the vegetables complimented the Pasta well! It was flavorful while not being overpowering. The Lemon Pesto Sauce was light and refreshing!
As for the Florentine Pasta, it was so delicious. It had a creamy Alfredo sauce, but what especially won me over was the Bacon and Mushrooms. I feel like it really added to it and was satisfyingly filling.
Also, I have tried the Nanny’s Cheesecake here, and it is perfect! It is a reasonable size and satisfies any desire for sweetness. The cheesecake layer is soft while the crushed graham crackers and crust holds it together well and adds texture. The strawberry sauce paired nicely with it!
Overall, I feel that the dining experience at Luigi’s is perfect for any occasion. I have been here on normal going-out days as well as some more special events! I did not go to my high school graduation ceremony since I knew a night out at Luigi’s would feel like more of a celebration! We had such delicious food, and we did not have to sit for hours on end. I have also came here on my birthday!
If you are in the area, I would highly recommend checking out Luigi’s in Westbury! I think this a place that I as well as my family and partner would love to keep...
Read moreOverall was not super impressed with our visit. Servers were nice but service was very slow, it took us 45 minutes to get our food from the time we ordered. While my wife’s food was good, I was not impressed… I believe there was some left over soap or something on my plate as all of my food had a very bitter and unpleasant aftertaste. I got the sampler which has a small portion of 3 different dishes, namely so I could try a bit of everything and know what I might want for next time. The chicken Alfredo was disappointing and the chicken tasted like it had been setting out for awhile and was dry and cut into tiny unappetizing strips… the sauce was good but had the bitter taste that was different then when I had it with our breadsticks. The lasagna was ok but still had a strange bitter taste. The speghetti had the strangest taste of all and oddly tasted different then my wife’s which leads me to think there may have been some soap on my plate and that it didn’t get rinsed properly. I didn’t complain during our visit because I didn’t want to wait for replacement food after it had taken so long. The last comment is purely atmospheric but install some speakers around the seating area for music… and possibly some more sound paneling to help control the noise, could not hear the music until the crowd had went down and it was very far away. This place has potential but definitely has some issues that need to...
Read moreThis place was SO good! I can tell you the owners knows his menu forward and backward and was extremely helpful with my food allergies. They make everything I asked about from scratch with great ingredients. I went with the Pasta Florentine and my husband went with the chicken Alfredo.
We had planned to go to Zio’s for date night and found all of them in Oklahoma are closed. Hubby quickly found this place and he decided to give it a try. I have some very uncommon food allergies (nightshades but also corn and MSG) so trying a new place usually involves me having to call in advance but we just went for it. The waitress was great and didn’t want to have me have any issues so she brought out the owner. He was so nice! He was extremely helpful and made a recommendation between the two dishes I was especially looking at.
The breadsticks were better than Olive Garden hands down and the balsamic/oil/seasoning blend for dipping was way better than Zio’s and Primo’s! Our dishes came out hot and tasted very fresh. Fantastic. You will NOT be sorry going here. It was so amazing I didn’t even get a picture first but next time we go I will come back to the review and add a picture.
The only funny thing about the location is that it’s in the middle of a neighborhood. Trust the signs, they take you to the parking and you walk next to the pool and across the road into...
