Lava Noshery

3512 S. Peoria, 749-3310

A "nosh" is essentially a small meal; Lava has both "little nosh" (appetizers) and "big nosh" (entrees) from which to choose. To begin your gastronomic adventure, consider one of the interesting little nosh options like the fried lobster corndog with whole grain mustard. When you're ready for the big nosh, try the dueling beef- peppered tenderloin and braised short rib served over squash hash. Vegetarians can get behind the goat cheese ravioli served with braised greens.
