About Lusardi's
Lusardi's is the practical Upper East Side choice when easy booking and a settled New York City dinner matter more than a documented chef's counter, awards profile, or specific price signal. Cross-shop Tha Phraya for Thai contemporary at $$, Crave Fishbar Upper East for seafood, Caffe Buon Gusto for another neighborhood-comfort option.
For Lusardi's in New York City, the most reliable planning details are direct: it is open daily from 12 PM, closes at 10:30 PM Sunday through Thursday, closes at 11 PM on Friday and Saturday. The dress code is smart casual. Beyond those basics, the available verified profile does not support building the choice around a documented chef's-counter format, named tasting menu, cuisine claim, price point, or award-backed destination signal.
Choose it for a New York City meal with clear hours
The useful read here is practical. Lusardi's has broad daily hours, which makes it easier to fit into a New York City dining plan than a restaurant with a narrower schedule. The available details do not support treating it as a counter-experience pick, so diners specifically hunting for bar seating interaction, tasting-menu pacing, or chef-facing service should confirm directly or look elsewhere. For a deeper New York City search by format, use Our full New York City restaurants guide.
Because no verified booking-difficulty, seat-count, price, or menu-format detail is available here, it is best to keep plans flexible and confirm directly for larger parties, peak times, or any specific dining needs. The strongest confirmed planning cues are the daily schedule and smart-casual dress code.
How to compare it with other options
If the decision depends on a more specific brief, compare Lusardi's with other dining options rather than assuming details that are not verified here. Tha Phraya, Crave Fishbar Upper East, Caffe Buon Gusto, Kizuna, Supperclub @ Le Petit Parisien are other names to consider in a broader dining search, but the right choice should come down to the current menu, availability, the kind of night you want.
The verdict: consider Lusardi's when the confirmed hours and smart-casual dress code fit your New York City plans. Do not frame it as a special trip built around documented awards, chef detail, price point, or a known counter format, because those signals are not part of the verified profile. For a broader night out around the city, pair this search with Our full New York City bars guide or Our full New York City hotels guide.

How Lusardi's New York City Guide compares with similar nearby venues.
If Lusardi's is not the right fit, book Tha Phraya for a clearer Thai contemporary brief at $$, or Crave Fishbar Upper East when the table wants seafood without leaving the Upper East Side orbit.
Lusardi's is easiest to justify when the priority is an Upper East Side table with low reservation friction. Against Crave Fishbar Upper East, it is the less cuisine-specific choice; pick Crave when seafood is the point of the meal, pick Lusardi's when the group needs a broader neighborhood dinner without building the evening around one category.
Tha Phraya has the clearest value signal in this set because Thai contemporary and $$ pricing give diners a more defined expectation before booking. Lusardi's is better for diners who care more about location and easy planning than a tightly stated concept. Caffe Buon Gusto is the closest comparison for a comfort-led neighborhood meal, while Kizuna and Supperclub @ Le Petit Parisien are stronger cross-shops only if their specific formats fit the night.
