Lex Restaurant is Children friendly. Bring the little ones because they love our penne ala vodka or chicken fingers and our freshly whipped mashed potatoes. Lex Restaurant will make your mouth water with the best Italian food on the Upper East Side such as Homemade Pappardelle (slowly cooked ragout of veal flavored with sage) or beautifully grilled shrimp salad over spinach with mandarin oranges, walnuts, and goat cheese for a lighter fare. If neither of these seem to suite you them maybe fresh fried calamari, steamed mussels or a wonderful Chicken Caesar Salad will tickle your palate. We also serve fresh fish like classic herb encrusted and grilled fish such as Branzino, or Salmon with Dijon. Nevertheless, we have an array of fresh pasta to choose from with an authentic Bolognaise.
