At Nostrana in Boonton, “homegrown” is a name and a philosophy. “My experience has shaped my approach to creating welcoming, thoughtfully crafted dining experiences. Ones that bring people together over great food, wine, and conversation,” says Gabi Lombardi Fischer. Gabi is a certified sommelier and owner of Lombardi Hospitality Group.

Food is rooted in Italian tradition and changes with the seasons. However, homemade pasta is always at the heart of the menu. “Each dish reflects a commitment to freshness, simplicity, and flavor,” Gabi says. Ingredients focus on locally-sourced produce, high-quality meats, and sustainable seafood.
