Luzzi’s Hibernia Inn

Never had a bad meal, like Dan says its quality not Quantity. Heeeeey, don’t forget to ask for garlic butter when the bread comes to the table ! Its like candy yum yum! I need to go there more often !

Local Favorite!
Love when I see sign out front for the soft shell crabs.
Fair prices
Always very friendly staff.
Never disappointed.

Awesome dining experience from start to finish! In particular we enjoyed Eggplant Napoleon and sausage pesto tortellini appetizers. Pasta mains were all done to perfection especially the chicken Tuscana and the linguini with clam sauce. Be sure and save room for dessert – we loved the crème brûlée and Go Bananas with caramel sauce.

They close whenever they feel like it. Couple of weeks ago, arrived at 8:00 pm and we were informed that the kitchen was closed. The closing time was 9:00pm.

Food here is is amazing and service is great

Living in this part of town there are a limited number of quality restaurants. Luzzi’s Hibernia Inn consistently strives for excellence and delivers. We’ve gone here twice since moving to Rockaway and both experiences were wonderful. The servers are top notch… always professional, always polite, always attentive. They have a full bar if you choose to partake. Warm bread with butter or garlic butter (yum) was brought to the table. I got the Greek salad as an appetizer and the Angel Hair Pasta with white clam sauce for an entrée. Both were delicious. The place has a cozy, intimate feel with a small amount of tables which is perfect. Not too loud, just right. If you’re looking for a casual, inexpensive place to dine this might not be your spot; however, if you’re looking for a nice time to enjoy a good meal and don’t mind spending a little more Luzzi’s Hibernia Inn is the answer.

Luzzis Hibernia inn has always been one of my favorite restaurants. Their food is superb and service is always friendly.
They have some of the best Italian food you’ll ever have. They always start with a fresh bread basket the best bread around. Ask for their house garlic butter to go along with the bread its delicious. The house salad is a must they serve it family style and the dressing is THE best around.
From seafood to steak veal and chicken to pastas. You can’t go wrong with you main dish choice. Their pasta with meatballs is always fresh cooked aldente and the meatballs and perfection. You must also save room for dessert. The tartufo of mousse are some of the best!
So if you’re in Rockaway looking for great Italian food check this place out they will not disappoint!

Best shrimp scampi ever. Great place for families or couples.

This place came highly recommended and I was not disappointed. Not your normal menu, and I mean that in a good way. They have a distinct twist on many dishes and I like the originality. We had the family house salad, which was tremendous. Well seasoned, not overly dressed, and very flavorful. We also had the fresh mozzarella, roasted red peppers, and caramelized onions which was fantastic. For dinner, I had the Steak Arrabbiata and it was prepared perfectly. The dish was spicy as the menu claimed but the dish was cooked nicely by the seasoned ricotta in the middle of the plate. The steak was cooked to a perfect medium rare. We had a group of 7 and everyone loved their meal, including 2 people tough to please. Our server was great and very humorous. We paid about $ 40 per person with 7 entrees and 3 appetizers. Not cheap, but well worth the price. We will be returning again. The only reason they 4 stars and not 5, was the lighting. It’s too dark, I had to use my cell phone flashlight to read the menu.

I have eaten here many times and love it. It is a small quaint place with great food.

Consistently great food, reasonable prices & nice atmosphere. The shrimp Angela is the best, and the soft shell crabs, when in season, are unbelievable.

Came here over the weekend to celebrate my sister and my birthday. This place is like a hidden gem. at least to people under the age of 50. Most of the clientele is older but that doesn’t bother me and actually allows for a very enjoyable evening. It has a rustic country feel to it and is perfect for a date night. The food is always consistently good and there is a full bar which I feel is unique for this area where a lot of Italian restaurants are byob. The shrimp and scallops tuscana was mouthwatering and a large portion. I do wish they had calamari on their menu… But hey a girl can always wish.

Not sure why we don’t come here more often. Great local place. Will be coming back here soon.

Food and atmosphere are exceptional! Wonderful family owned restaurant. Have been here several times and will be back soon.

Had my kids and parents for dinner. The penne vodka was awesome. The chicken Parm is a must. Great service. Worth the the long ride up through Rockaway Twsp.

Recently ate here and everything was delicious! From the crusty italian bread to the homemade chocolates at the end of your meal, we were impressed. Being from NY, I am a very big critic and this place hits the mark. Try the house salad with homemade dressing, you won’t be disappointed.

The food is always delicious and by far the best restaurant in the area. The house salad is the best. I usually get chicken francaise and it is always just right. I am never disappointed with any of the dishes I get here. I recommend this place highly.

Basic over priced food. Nothing special. Best part of the meal was the salad and chocolates.

Not far from Route 80, this historical inn has excellent and fresh meals. They gave us a full menu for steak, seafood, chicken dinners and more — as well as a casual menu for personal pizzas, sandwiches, and pasta dishes.
During my meal, I struck up a conversation with our waitress. She recommended asking for the home made butter, which the regulars usually know about. It was delicious on the bread.
When I asked the waitress about the history of the area, she was happy to share a Rockaway history book. It was written by a regular customer who lives just down the street.
My steak was fresh, cooked perfectly, and even came with grilled caramelized onions and a side of penne alla vodka.
I recommend Luzzi’s for the food, history, friendliness, and quiet atmosphere.

Stopped in for a personal pizza and selected the Manning… portobello mushrooms, with roasted red peppers. Wow was it great! Followed by few pieces of complimentary homemade chocolate (raisins in it) dusted with confectioner’s sugar. Superb! Will be back for some of their main courses soon!
