    We started off the evening with cocktails and appetizers. My husband had the drunken mussels and I enjoyed the stuffed mushrooms. We each ordered the chicken rollitini special. Bread pudding and tiramisu for dessert and a cappuccino. Everything was delicious. One of our favorite restaurants.

    Had fish and my wife had gnocchi. Both were excellent and cooked perfectly. The atmosphere was very nice and the wait staff was very attentive and helpful. This was our first visit. We will be back for sure.

    Food was very good. Atmosphere was lovely and quiet. Was with 6 people for dinner and it was very easy to talk. The service was good except they mixed up my order with someone else’s and tried to give me lasagna that I didn’t order. They made good on it though and quickly served me what I originally ordered. The dessert choices could have been better. We wanted sorbet and they didn’t have any and the ice cream choices were very basic. Would go back again because we thought the entrees were very good!

    La Mensa is actually a much classier restaurant than the exterior appearance would lead one to believe. Inside is a charming and cozy dining room offering fine fare, top-notch service and a full selection of wine. We have eaten here about half a dozen times and so far, have not been disappointed. I really love this place and feel that if they upgraded the drab exterior they would get more business but I don't mind keeping this neighborhood gem to myself! .
