"I wanted to bring something new to Huntington," said Lewis Vargas, chef-owner of the new La Tavola Trattoria Ristorante in Huntington, "and to bring new life to Jericho Turnpike." Among his signature offerings: wood-fired chicken served over puréed potatoes ($24), a salmon artichoke-encrusted entree ($26), classic meatballs and sauce ($12), and a fine variety of pizzas baked in a wood-fired Cirigliano oven ($12 to $18).
"A lot of places say wood-fired but there’s actually gas burning in the background," noted Vargas. "This is straight-up wood-fired." Reiterating his desire to "bring a fresh approach to everything," Vargas mentioned his tiramisu, in which freshness takes the form of a thin layer of ground-up Oreo cookies in the middle ($10).
