One of the best Italian restaurants in the corner, L’inizio proposes very well executed dishes from the appetizers through the desserts with quality ingredients . A good kind of comfort food when you need something familiar yet different. It’s like going to diner at the place of a friend who can cook simple menus like you do at home but somewhat there is something undefinable special. A place where you can eat as a consolation as well as celebration.

I came here for my birthday dinner and left full and happy! Everyone was friendly and the food was fantastic! My husband and I had baked clams for an appetizer, I had fettuccine with kale and mushrooms, my husband had the linguini with clams and chorizo and for dessert we had the donuts. Everything was truly amazing!

Very nice restaurant, good family feel. We went for mother’s day. I felt that the kids meal portions were small. Cocktails we’re good – beer list very short but good. I’d absolutely go again and suggest it to others.

I may be biased, but I’ve known Chefs Scott and Heather back in the Manhattan days with their restaurant Spigolo. Anyone who’s been there will understand how upset I, as a fan, was when they uprooted and moved to Ardsley.

Very fine dining experience. This place is not Olive Garden, it is authentically prepared Italian. Service was phenomenal. I had the flounder special , Brussel Sprouts and bread pudding.

Indoor dining is available! We had a great dinner at L’inizio. We ordered octopus salad, cold plate and chicken liver toast as appetizers. My husband had the curry crispy pork tenderloin with corn salad and it was delicious! I had the homemade squid ink pasta with seafood. Finished the meal with berries tart and house flavored donut with chocolate sauce. Clean dining area and friendly staff.

Always a great experience at L’inizio! Farm fresh, small batch ingredients that create amazing flavor. We had the chicken parmigiana that came with a salad on the side filled with greens, radishes, carrots and other delicious thing. We also ordered the Brussels and an incredible meaty pasta dish. Everything is done with thought and care. It’s been the closest experience to eating at a restaurant(while eating at home)! Attached pics here 🙂

Made a reservation 30 minutes prior to their closing. Their website says closes at 10. Would not take a 9:30 reservation and cancelled 20 minutes after booking, I was already almost at the restaurant. 1) don’t allow reservations at that time. 2) not my problem work with OpenTable so people CANT make reservations. Not ok!

The food is delicious. Highly recommend the octopus appetizer! The steak came out cold and I’m assuming it was done first before the pastas we ordered. It was still good and filling. I loved the rigatoni pasta, by far the best. The drinks are very light but tasty. I will be returning soon to try out something new. 10/10
