“ In an effort to start a new family tradition, my wife and I booked a reservation for our family for Christmas Eve at LA Foresta. We walked in and were instantly greeted and ushered to a table that was the right size for our little group. The service throughout the night was amazing, the food was delicious and appropriately hot, and the beverages were perfect. The staff was very knowledgeable and had no issues answering any questions. Once the food landed on the table, there was that kind of silence that can only mean that everyone was too busy enjoying the food to talk at all. Once the forks had settled, we all had nothing but compliments! After we had finished, we noticed that the whole place had cleared out. We chatted with the manager for a minute and gave praises to the service and food, and he said that he closes a bit early so that his staff can go home to spend the holiday with their families, which was admirable! I honestly can't say enough wonderful things about our experience and we're all looking forward to next year already! Needless to say, this will continue to be where we will celebrate every Christmas Eve from now on! ”

“ Out of the way, but worth a try Beautifully decorated, new wine deck looks like fun in warmer weather. Emblazoned on the side is #savewaterdrinkwine... We were there in time for "Happy Hour" - 12-6PM M-Th, half price appetizers. Great way to try a number of dishes! Tacos (carne asada and gamaron) were just okay... tortillas were somewhat chalky, and thin, they use two... Calamari was excellent, marinara sauce went well. Fresh tasting, large serving bowl... Fried bacon-wrapped mozz was a first, very tasty Stuffed zucchini blossoms were a pleasant surprise, figured them to be out of season... I didn't try the dessert but the creme brulee and tiramisu looked good... Three of us ate (with one cocktail) for $100 plus tip - a good deal with the half price offer... service was excellent Will have to try the flaming cheese round pasta for two next time... ”

“ Been there a few times for dinner and the food was good. A bot overpriced for portions received, but I have not been there in a while. Outdoor seating is nice in the right weather. Inside is classy decor with what you would expect in an Italian restaurant. The staff were friendly and courteous. ”

“ After saying, we have to try this place for about a year, we decided to. Welcomed by owner Francesco who ended up showing us a private tour after our meal and inviting us back. What a friendly environment. Talk about service with a smile. After a small wait time we started with a glass of delicious pinot noir! The main course was amazing. I had this eggplant stack to die for! My husband had oysters, and wished they were a bit larger. Although it took about 40 minutes to get our meal ( the only negative) we enjoyed it nonetheless. We will go back ! ”

“ While visiting my daughter & son-in-law they took me to their favorite Italian restaurant and it didn't disappoint! I had the Lobstah mac & cheese and just WOW! Their salad special was a watermelon/cucumber feta cheese with a bit of olive oil and it was delicious! Nice ambiance outside on the deck, all in all great dinner! Service with a smile! ”

“ We stopped here for lunch after spending some time at Lavender Pond farm a few minutes away. We were promptly seated outdoors. The outdoor space is very pretty, it hardly feels like you're facing a parking lot. There were a lot of flowers, which made that space feel very private. There is also a bar on the deck. The service was very prompt and friendly. We were often check on to see how everything was going and if we needed anything else. I wasn't crazy about the spread that was served with the warm bread. I ordered the Thai Chili Shrimp off of their summer menu. It was served over a veggie slaw. I loved it. Just the right amount of heat and packed with flavor. My friend ordered a pasta bolognese, which I also tried. It was good, but not as flavorful as the shrimp. It tasted fresh, and the portion was huge. The restaurant is pretty out of my way so I would only stop back in if I were in the area, but it just so happens that I was invited to a birthday party being held there in September, so I am looking forward to going again and trying some of their other offerings. ”
