Mulberry Italian Ristorante 64 Jackson Avenue, Lackawanna, NY 14218

"Mulberry’s reputation proceeds itself. I live an hour and a half away and I had heard multiple times how extraordinary their dining experience was. So I gathered a couple girlfriends and we planned a road trip to find out for ourselves how good it really was. Mulberry’s did not disappoint. I will say this was a plan ahead experience because it took a couple weeks to get a weekend reservation. We were very happy we spent the time to visit and enjoy. Our garlic bread appetizer was huge and delicious. I had the chicken and wild rice soup and it had so much flavor. The girls enjoyed their salads and then came the entrees. The famous lasagna was made with a delicious sauce, a ton of mozzarella and other cheeses and a ton of melt in your mouth slow cooked beef. It was a very large portion and one of the best pieces of lasagna I have ever had. The cannelloni and stuffed shells were similarly delicious. One downside was we were too full for dessert. For those worried about the price that is then the best part, three soup or salad, a shared appetizer and three entrees was $108! That was a value in my opinion for a lovely shard Italian meal with friends in an inviting spot. Thank you, Mulberry’s! (And Go Bills!)"

"We loved the atmosphere. All the staff were very quick and very nice. We did have to reserve. People were dressed well or dressed up. I did not see children. It's a more fine dining type of place. Small parking lot across the street. The food was fantastic. The small menu is not complicated. Homemade Italian food. Good prices. Highly recommend."

"I was worried this was going to be what my family calls "fake italian" or "olive garden italian". Boy was I WRONG. such a lovely little spot, with great staff- we will be asking for Jaime from now on she was wonderful. Their menu is small, because I bet they only do what they know they can do well. They nailed it. From the homemade pastas, sauces, arrancini, wines, and specials (the scallops were mind blowing, Gordon Ramsey would have been impressed!) And even the price! A bottle of Sicilian Pino Noir, two entrées and one app to share. I'll say under 110 total, w tax (not tip). We will be back, and were so happy to finally try it out. You should too- you won't be disappointed!!"

"Is it possible that we got the three best meals on the menu, or is everything just that delicious? My money is on the latter. We’re looking forward to having everything on the menu at one point or another. Service was excellent as well."

"Since hearing about mulberry a year ago, (could there really be gluten free Italian?) I have wanted to try it. Finally my partner suggested it for a date night. We started with a meatball sausage appetizer and the beat salad. My partner is Italian. We were really impressed with the sausage and those g free meatballs! I wish we could have had some bread just sop up some of that sauce. It had its own unique Italian flavor. This was not his father's sauce and it was so good! He had a negroni and I had mimosa. The drinks were really good. Sometimes mimosa can be kind of sweet the use of prosecco did not do this it was quite enjoyable. The beet salad: make sure you mix it up all the yumminess is hiding underneath those greens! The gergonzola cheese was perfect the beets were amazing. If you like beats get this. We asked our server for the drink menu so we could order wine with dinner. It took asking several times to get. Then she kept insisting she had already brought it. We even searched our tiny dining table Checking on the floor and on top of the half halfwall we were beside. Nope nothing. She finally seemingly somewhat reluctantly brought us a drink menu. I got the house lambrusco and he house Cabernet. He loved the wine. their house wines are really Good. For dinner we both got lasagna. not often we can order the same thing since I'm gluten free and he is not. I would never have been able to tell this was a g free meal. I haven't had lasagna in 15 years! I can't believe I ate the whole thing as did my partner. It was very good. On his last few bites he asked iur server, "does this restaurant serve bread?" She finally brought us some bread. Well him some bread. There was no gluten-free bread. I'm a baker who can't eat what she makes. This bread was perfect the smell was amazing. The crumb and Crust was exactly the way Italian bread should be. My partner said next time he wishes he would have the bread to be able to soak up the sauce. I agree! Some Gfree bread to soak up my sauce would have made the dinner perfect. I guess note to self for next time bring some g free bread product. Another Italian restaurant I was at used g free buns (pretty sure they were schaar) they held up really well to the sauce so next time I shall do the same and bring my own."
