We had a delightful dinner at this restaurant. The food was freshly prepared and cooked to perfection, making it a truly enjoyable experience. The service was attentive and friendly, and the atmosphere was warm and inviting. It was a cozy place that made us feel right at home. Saldo was friendly and very nice

Ruffino’s is a true neighborhood staple in Lynbrook. The interiors are absolutely stunning, and every dish we tried was so delicious! The ambiance and hospitality were incredible. Sal, Kristen, and Abby were all so warm and welcoming. It truly felt like I was dining with family! Santo was amazing - so pleasant, friendly, and made great recommendations. I had the Baked Clams, Penne Arrabiata, Salad, and Tiramisu...absolutely delish!! You can genuinely feel that they put their heart and soul into everything they do here. A must-visit! Can’t wait to go back! ♡

First time here, very cozy atmosphere. We were not rushed at all. Food presentation was excellent, very fresh. Large portions, reasonable pricing. We will definitely be back!

Great food, great service, new decor. Portions are generous. Pizza bread on the table. Veal was super tender in 3 of the veal dishes we ordered. One order of stuffed shrimp had 6 large shrimp cooked properly and the stuffing was delicious. Had the pistachio cheesecake for dessert, different and delicious.

★★☆☆☆ 2.0 Liz Pearsall · Jan 2026

We are locals and this was not our first time at this restaurant. However, this could possibly be our last. We were there for my birthday on 24 January. There is a tiny table for 2 stuck way back in a corner, which we call no man’s land. That is where we were seated. The service was terrible. We finally got our salads after almost an hour. Then came the appetizer, which was so unbelievably salty I couldn’t eat it and have no idea how my husband did. The entrée was no better. I ordered the stuffed shrimp and not only did it not look appetizing, it tasted vile. Never before have we ever been so disappointed in a meal in a restaurant. FYI, from the conversations around us, we were not the only ones and not the only locals. They need to get their act together in this restaurant if they intend
