Customer Reviews
Had dinner with family here. They open for dinner service at 5 and am glad we were there because I heard the staff take many calls later coming for reservations. Quite attentive service from the two ladies who were running tables and food back and forth. The hostess seemed new? In that she neede help dealing with calls and ringing up a gift card for another customer. Good place for date night, group party : the center tables were all put together for at least a dozen. Food wise: I got the trenette (ribbon pasta) pesto , a half portion spaghetti Bolognese and linguine carbonara. Also a calamari appetizer: every SINGLE dish was HEAVILY salted. We could see the line cook through the open kitchen really doubling down on the salt . How unfortunate because the pasta was otherwise very nice - fre
Very authentic Italian restaurant, the pasta tasted so fresh, cooked to perfection, al dente, not chewy at all! The sauce and seasoning was fantastic all around. We tried the calamari fritti and it was so tasty, not much batter. Tried the Italian peroni beer and it was amazing, must try! For dessert we got tiramisu and affogato, it was so good. Worth the 30 minute wait time and the price! will definitely come back and try other dishes. For reference we had the fettucini compleanno and penne alla salsiccia. serving size was a lot, we had left overs. Servers were friendly, atmosphere is very close quarters, good fit for date vibes
Honestly, this place just feels easy. Nothing pretentious, just good food and a chill atmosphere where you actually want to sit and take your time. I ordered the spaghetti bolognese, and it really hit the spot. The sauce tasted rich and hearty, and the fresh pasta was done right—not mushy, not stiff. It’s one of those dishes that doesn’t try to reinvent anything, it’s just solid and comforting, and that’s exactly why it works. The smoked chicken tortellini in pink sauce was probably my favorite, though. The smoky flavor was subtle but noticeable, and it paired really well with the creamy sauce. We also got the fresh bruschetta bread, which was free and delish. Warm, crispy on the outside, soft in the middle—perfect for tearing apart and scooping up extra sauce. Overall, it’s the kind
La Tavolata is an excellent little Italian restaurant tucked away in a bustling shopping and dining plaza. I've had the pleasure of dining here and have also ordered takeout on multiple occasions. Each time was a delicious experience. The menu features a variety of classic Italian dishes, along with a carefully curated selection of wines and beers. There is no kids' menu, but they offer off-menu options, such as butter pasta (spaghetti), which my nieces and nephews love. On recent visits, we made reservations and were seated promptly. Service began with complimentary bread, and we ordered drinks, such as their Pinot Grigio or Peroni beer, while we decided on our dinner. A few of my favorite dishes are Spaghetti ai Frutti di Mare, Ravioli alla Bolognese, Ravioli ai Funghi, and Spaghetti
We came here on a whim, and it was the best decision! We had toasted bread, caprise salad, fried calamari, shrimp Alfredo, ravioli with meat bolognese sauce, and rich dark chocolate gelato. I’d had fresh pasta before, but I’d never had fresh raviolis. Everything was incredible! Five-star flavors are hard to find in the United States outside of Louisiana, and this place has it in spades!
