A nice happy hour with a dog-friendly patio . Don’t miss the handmade pasta , like the spaghetti Bolognese or bacon risotto . Go on a Sunday or Tuesday and get a half-priced bottle of wine with dinner . Read more

The Risotto Bacon is a hearty and delicious brunch option at Lavagna. It's prepared with house made bacon , arugula , butternut squash , mushrooms , and mascarpone .

Ingrid Wong

Fantastic brunch spot . Indulgent, satisfying, and generous portions . I highly recommend ordering anything that includes their potatoes , which are crispy and delicious. Be sure to make reservations .

Had the opportunity to try several different things at the two year anniversary event - EVERYTHING was delicious! Bolognese was my personal fave but def trying the pesto next time. Love this place!

A must visit restaurant on Barracks Row. This place makes their pasta in house. Delicious Local farmers provide the food. Vegetarian and Gluten Free Dishes are available.

I am a vegan . I know that my diet is difficult for a lot of places but they were amazing! When they found out they tried so hard to accommodate me and I really appreciated the extra effort.

Pete DeCarolis

Brunch is a great deal & delicious; love that the biscuits & gravy has a red gravy . Service is fantastic.

Friendly , warm, intimate . Great for dates and small groups. Three course meal is a very budget friendly option. Food is fresh, and local (eastern market is just up the block). good drink selection

We loved the goat cheese omelet and the chicken & waffles . The bottomless mimosas were a winner. Would brunch here again!!!!

Darby McQueen

We had the carbonara and it was so good. The pasta is Tucker and we loved it! The service was great - ask for Nate Brandon.

Paige Nicole

I haven't gotten a meal here that I didn't like. Plus, the mimosas are bottomless for just $12--what else could you ask for at 11am on a Saturday?

Brunch and the City

For $20 you get unlimited mimosas , belinis and Bloody Marys . That’s the kind of special that turns a little brunch with a few girlfriends turned into a wonderful 3-hour catch up session. Read more

Great brunch , Italian sausage is legit, and nothing wrong with bottomless mimosas .

John Dayton

Brunch was amazing! And a great job keeping that bottomless mimosa glass full...

Shelby Bell Pike

Yummy. Simple. Casual Italian food . Fresh pasta dishes. Small, unpretentious menu. Pasta half sizes are too small for entrees.

Dee C.

Brandon is great :-)..food is off the hook

Evan Ross

Your mimosa glass will never be empty. Definitely one of the best brunch places I've ever been to.

Carolyn

Mushroom risotto is excellent, and their steak was good for an Italian place . Half sizes are pretty small, though. Not enough for even a small entree.

Heather D

Love the "All Aboard" prix fixe 3-course. (not just for restaurant week) Great deal, delicious food.

Ricco Richardson

Good brunch there , eggs and potatoes are tasty....

Matt Silverman

At brunch ? Ask for the homemade ketchup with your truffled potatoes .
