My wife and I split the pear and frizzett salad and each of us had the mushroom ragu. Both dishes were excellent as usual. And as usual, we so enjoyed being with the folks who work at La Tavola. Beth does such a great job coordinating everything.

It is a great neighborhood location that has just the right balance of comfort food (meatloaf, pork chops, seafood, and pasta) with a step of higher class. Priced within means to enjoy a nice meal and glass of wine (or cocktail). A favorite

Very lively place especially on a Monday night. The service was amazing it was our first experience there and the waiter made sure to be patient and answer any questions we had. I would say be sure to have a reservation tables were always full. The food and drinks were amazing I got a dirty vodka martini which was very good. Me and my husband shared pasta and pizza and it was the perfect amount of food for us. Would most definitely be back!
