Laboratorio Kitchen - Montclair

Laboratorio was a wonderful dining experience! Our server Gerardo was attentive and on point! The food was fantastic- starting w/ the giant meatball, and they're not kidding when they say giant! to the Gorgonzola, figs walnut crostini; delicious! The salmon was cooked perfectly, best I've had in a LONG time and the carbonara magnific! We finished w/ a piece of cheesecake that was to die for as well. This was our first time dining here and we will most definitely be back!

We have been going to Laboratorio for years. The food and service are consistently good. On this particular visit, I messed up the number of people in my reservation. Even on a busy Saturday night the maitre d' was kind enough to accommodate us. Overall, a great local restaurant.

Brought friends to experience LK for the first time. Shrimp arrabbiata appetizer (ordered 2) was delicious. (save your warm bread for dipping into the sauce) as The Caesar and arugula salads were delicious and plentiful to share. Enjoyed 2 orders of seafood/linguini/ red sauce and 2 orders of scallops with pureed cauliflower. The entrees were cooked perfectly, scallops tender and sweet, linguini al dente with shellfish just the right consistency. The LK staff is efficient and dedicated to making the dining experience a positive one. Tables were bussed in a timely manner, water glasses replenished often and waiter frequently checking up to see that all is going well. Our friends, like us, are hooked and cannot wait to return. We had a great night!

Excellent dinner!! All the items ordered were on point and delicious . Service by Ignacio and team was excellent. I completely under why, but the time limits for dining is the only drawback, for me. All else is excellent!

Our go-to in Montclair. All dishes have consistently delivered with one exception, last night: the Carbonara. It never should have left the kitchen. Avoid that and you’ll do fine with any other pasta. Scallops were fantastic, too.
