Monterey
PC: Robb ReportMonterey’s lasagna screams luxury. It is an umami flavor bomb with a porcini mushroom filling, taleggio fonduta, and it’s topped with a heaping portion of freshly shaved black truffle. Oh, and it’s 18 layers of rich deliciousness.
Don Angie
PC: TodayThe signature pinwheel shape of Don Angie’s lasagna is just the beginning of why it’s worth the $64 price tag. The amount of love that goes into this dish is truly magical – from the Italian sausage bolognese, to the homemade whipped robiolina topping. After one bite you’ll see this is not just a lasagna, it truly is an experience.
Bowery Meat Company
PC: New York MagazineYou may not think of lasagna when you hear Bowery Meat Company, but in this case, there is no better side dish to a steak than duck lasagna. It needs to be on your table. Similar to Don Angie, it’s meant for sharing, this one for up to six people. It’s served in a cast iron skillet, allowing for a crispy crust. The caciocavallo and parmesan cheeses ooze from the center as its portioned tableside, complimenting the juicy duck filling perfectly.
I Sodi
PC: Infatuation NYCThere’s a reason it’s impossible to get a reservation at I Sodi. And it’s because their lasagna is just THAT good. Here, you can choose between sugo – meat sauce or carciofi – artichoke, both of which are 25 layers strong. If you’re lucky, you might be there on a night when they have their special cacio e pepe lasagna which is our favorite of them all.
La Lanterna Di Vittorio
PC: PostmatesWhy have one lasagna, when you can have four or eight? That’s written on the menu for good reason – La Lanterna Di Vittorio offers lasagna flights, so you can trust us when we say that this place is not messing around. They have two options, one with meat and fish fillings, and the other vegetarian, all served in cute little ramekins. Our favorites are the bolognese, funghi, pesto, and shrimp with red pepper and artichoke. Bring a big group and order both.
Kimika
PC: GothamistThis dish is the prime example of how Kimika successfully fuses Italian and Japanese cuisine. Yes, there’s sweet Italian sausage, provolone cheese and a red sauce, but instead of pasta they use rice cakes, rendering a magical combination of crispy and chewy. The sauce is made with spicy kimchi cabbage and scallions and the cheese on top ties it all together.
Rubirosa
PC: Grub StreetRubirosa’s lasagna is overlooked by most tables, but the ones that order it know it’s the best pasta on the menu. It’s a hefty portion for two, served in a traditional casserole dish, filled with their classic tomato sauce, stuffed with both sausage and meatballs, andt finally, all topped with the perfect amount of mozzarella cheese.
Supper
PC: Instagram – SupperThe lasagna at Supper is so special that it is just that, only a special served on Wednesdays. It’s like everything else Frank Prisinzano cooks – simple, classic, and delicious. It’s overflowing with a Bolognese sauce, and mozzarella and parmesan cheeses. Make sure to get extra bread to sop up the excess sauce.
