Amazing homemade authentic Italian food cooked with love. I have eaten here many times and everything I’ve had I have thoroughly enjoyed. My son had a 60th surprise birthday party here for me, it was wonderful and all that attended loved it too! I would absolutely recommend for an enjoyable lunch, dinner or special occasion.
I give this restaurant a 5 star rating because I feel that the food was excellent and the service was the best. We had penne vodka, burgers, calamari, Brussels sprouts in balsamic, Caesar salads, pan fried mozzarella and zucchini sticks. The garlic bread that came with the penne was loaded with garlic! Delish! All the food was obviously home cooked. And since we were celebrating a birthday, they came out with a dessert and a candle. This was a really good find for my family and I, we will definitely be back! Thank you Rosalie for making our meal special!
I'd give it 3.5 stars if I could but rounded up because Rosalie, I'm assuming, was very nice and took pride in her food. The main problem with this restaurant is some of the dishes were on the cool side. Pan fried mozzarella had warm and cool spots in it - would have been delicious if it had been warmer. Also ordered broccoli rabe as a side, this was borderline cold. The food that was warm was very good and fairly priced. Large cocktails and wine. Good value for the money but disappointed that food arrived cold. The restaurant is in a very odd place. It's located in a senior living apartment complex and has decor that looks like a senior living facility dining room. No stars off for this, just saying atmosphere is not it's strong suit.
We had our son's first birthday party at La Cucina and we couldn't have had a better experience. They did not disappoint! Rosalie was wonderful to work with. The food was delicious and timed perfectly. She displayed the appetizers and desserts as animals to play into our party theme and they were adorable!! The staff are all friendly and very accommodating. We didn't worry about a thing and were able to enjoy the party. We had an amazing experience. Thank you La Cucina for making this day perfect for us and our "Wild One"!! We will see you again soon!
We are incredibly happy to have this excellent restaurant so close by! Friendly and accommodating staff, excellent food and always a good time. Always excellent!
