I had the opportunity to visit yesterday, I was a little apprehensive because I read some reviews here. I started with the Crab Cake, well prepared and tasty. Then I ordered the Fish Zuppa, which was hot, well served and with great flavor. To finish, I chose the Brownie for dessert, which was very good. I accompanied the meal with a Montepulciano wine, which went very well with the dishes. I will be back soon. Frank, thank you for your kindness.

Went here with my boyfriend for Valentine’s Day. Our reservation was at 8pm we didn’t get seated until 8:40. There were about 10 other couples waiting in the waiting area. We finally got sat waiter was kind working very hard but obviously stressed. We didn’t have any idea that the Valentine’s Day dinner was $95 prefix menu but was willing to try hoping the food was going to be good. Waited 30 mins for our appetizers which were 4/10 nothing crazy at all. Then waited another 30 mins for our dinner which was horrible. Chicken parm tasted like rubber, my boyfriend’s steak was okay but nothing special. It was edible but not good. This is when it got alittle crazy. The couples sitting with us all started talking saying they’ve been waiting over an hour for their dinners we all said it was NOT wo

I made a Valentine’s Day reservation at La Foresta for a special dinner. What we experienced was beyond unacceptable. When we arrived, there were about 10 people crowded at the entrance with no hostess in sight for at least 10 minutes. When someone finally came out, there was no welcome, no apology for the wait — just a rude, visibly irritated attitude. We were seated and informed it was a $95 per person prix-fixe three-course menu. Fine — we expected a premium experience for a premium price. We waited an hour just for our appetizers. We ordered the “spicy meatballs,” which weren’t even remotely spicy. For something that simple — and after waiting that long — the quality was extremely disappointing. Honestly, the appetizers were underwhelming at best. We then waited for our entrées. An

We attended a friend's birthday party here and we were in a private room with one waitress for 21 people. The food was fantastic, great selections to the point where almost every item on the menu was something you wanted to eat. The private room we were in was perfect for the size group that we had and allowed us to enjoy our own conversations without all of the other patrons listening in or overpowering us. The service was good The waitress was a little overwhelmed I really think probably two people might have been better on this size party but with just one there was a little bit of delay at times and some confusion. The waitress was personable and did a great job handling this large party.

Very friendly service. We went to celebrate my son as a family. We got a very large comfortable booth. The food was delicious and came out quickly. Wonderful wine list. Perfect for family dinner and celebrations.
