Best Neighborhood Gem Restaurants in Bala Cynwyd

A reliable choice for good food, service, and ambience.

We had a few great pies, pasta and chicken Milanese followed by sorbet and cannolis. All delicious and served efficiently and with a smile. The restaurant was crowded with that looked like quite a few repeat customers. Highly recommend for a nice casual night out with some delicious food at a fair price

Always a great place to enjoy a good meal in a comfortable setting. Try their signature Old Fashioned!!!

Food and service are exceptional. Best Italian restaurant in center city. Innovative tasty pasta dishes. Excellent fish and veg. The manager and the servers go out of their way to please customers. The noise level is good near the window.

We had a thoroughly enjoyable, delicious meal at La Collina from start to finish and would highly recommend. Service was exceptional and each one of us had a great dinner. The pasta special was outstanding (do not hesitate), but I have to admit that the gorgonzola filled gnocchi enjoyed by my GF were pretty amazing as well. Her husband had no difficulty devouring his entire chicken park and my husband was delighted that he could order and enjoy veal parm not included on the menu. While I do not usually order my own dessert, I just could not pass up the Lemon Gelato with Limoncello and I have to say that it was positively amazing. I cannot recall having such an unusual and memorable dessert and only wish I could re-create it. It was served in a champagne flute and I refused to leave a trace behind. Our server was extremely professional and very pleasant. It was a Tuesday evening and the restaurant was pleasantly quiet and she permitted us to stay and visit without rushing us out the door. Our valet kindly brought our vehicles to the front door and delivered the keys to our table so we were able to avoid getting wet with the light rain. Very thoughtful. All in all a great meal and we are already looking forward to a return visit.
