Lasagna Bolognese
Our legendary Lasagna Bolognese has been perfected over 39 years using the Vizzini family's original recipe. Layers of fresh pasta sheets, slow-simmered Bolognese ragù, creamy béchamel sauce, and aged Parmigiano-Reggiano—baked to golden perfection.
About Our Lasagna
When the Vizzini family opened Sal De Forte's in 1985, this Lasagna Bolognese was one of the first dishes on the menu. Nearly four decades later, it remains our most requested pasta dish—and the recipe hasn't changed.
What makes our lasagna special starts with the ragù. We simmer a blend of beef and pork with San Marzano tomatoes, aromatic vegetables, and a splash of red wine for over four hours. This slow cooking develops the deep, complex flavors that distinguish authentic Bolognese from ordinary meat sauce.
Each lasagna is assembled by hand: fresh pasta sheets, rich meat ragù, velvety béchamel, and generous layers of aged Parmigiano-Reggiano. It's then baked until the top turns golden and bubbling. The result is comfort food elevated to an art form.
If you're searching for the best lasagna near me, families from Princeton, Trenton, Hamilton, and Lawrenceville have made Sal De Forte's their destination for authentic Italian pasta.
