Ruffino Reviews
One of the best Italian restaurants in Lynbrook or anywhere else. They use the freshest and highest quality ingredients and prepare the food exquisitely.

Ottima Cucina italiana, si mangia meglio al Ruffino Ristorante che in 🇮🇹 Italia!!! Quindi consigliatissimo. Consiglio fettuccine all’aragosta, fusilli cozze e fagioli, i granchi 🦀 cucinati sublimamente e le dolci torte speciai per completate il menu! Buon appetito.
