I haven’t been here in a few years and decided to return as I’ve always loved the ambiance. I remember the food as being good but not excellent. This time it was excellent as was the seevice and everything about our meal. It seems they have really stepped things up a notch since I was last there. I’ll definitely be back again soon!
We were there early, prior to busy time so the restaurant was nice and quiet. I can't comment on noise level at a busy time. Food was very nice, service was pleasant and appropriate, price was very good. Enjoyed it!
Mixed review for food. Shrimp scampi and calamari were excellent. Eggplant parm was disappointing - dry and presented on a plate of wilted arugula rather than what I remember as a casserole dish out of the oven which was rich, saucy and cheesy. Tiramisu was okay but not great. I think the food was better in the past. I would try them one more time and order fettuccini Alfredo which I remember being very good. Service was great.
We love LaViola Bistro and La Viola Ovest. The food is consistently wonderful as are the servers. True neighborhood gems. BYOB makes the value incredible.
