Laurella’s Restaurant 21 Bay Street Glens Falls

Jerry Porreca, owner of Laurella’s Restaurant, comes to the Glens Falls restaurant scene with a lifetime of experience in the hospitality business!

Located at 21 Bay Street, Laurella’s Restaurant serves “Old School” Italian food. It has a sophisticated yet welcoming ambiance, a full bar, and offers live music on both Friday and Sunday nights!

The menu at Laurella’s features all of the popular mainstay Italian favorites, as well as sandwiches, burgers, salads and appetizers… Jerry has found that Laurella’s generous portions can be a lot in one sitting and now offers small plates for the entrée portions. 

21 Bay Street is a location that Jerry has had his eye on for some time, and he is enjoying meeting new customers and seeing old friends! Laurella’s as a new addition to the restaurant scene in Glens Falls allows owner Jerry Porreca to keep doing what he loves.

Jerry, who has a welcoming presence and just a hint of a resemblance to Tony Bennett, is originally from Hudson, New York… That’s where he began his career as a musician: “I’ve done this all my life… I started out as a musician. I started out playing at places, and said I can do this myself. Our first place was just music, then we moved to Saratoga and I learned how to cook there, and our last place was Smokey Joe’s in Lake George… And now, we are here,” Jerry said.

Laurella’s invites guests to sit at the bar for Happy Hour Tuesday through Sunday for $3.00 Domestic beer, $4.00 Imports and $5.00 Drafts. House wines and well drinks are $4.00, and premium wines and call drinks are $6.00. In addition to drinks, ½-priced appetizers and $9.00 Flatbread Pizzas are amongst the offerings. 

So, if you’re still thinking of a way to celebrate Labor Day Weekend, why not stop in to Laurella’s? Say hello to Jerry, and enjoy wonderful Italian food, ambiance, and making new friends! 

Laurella’s is open Tuesday through Sunday, from 4:00 PM to 9:00 PM.
