Laverne is a relatively new Japanese, French-Fusion and Thai restaurant.

Located in Great Neck, an area that has relatively staid culinary choices; Laverne attempts liven up palates by offering cuisine with some oomph.

The food is surprisingly good. The menu offers a nice variety of well thought out dishes, which are attractively presented by super-friendly servers.

What I loved most about this place is the passion that lies behind it. The forces behind Laverne are a group of young, really enthusiastic young men who have a dream.

This is the kind of place that you really root for to do well and thats what I’m doing.

Go for it guys…I wish you all the best.
