    This place is hard to understand. MUCH of the food is not made in house. There is not much to pick from .let's see there is Hardee's Mic D and Food Lion Help us Publix... So that may be the reason they have Customer s It's a cross between a Sports bar and a Pizzeria. PLEASE make some of the food...

On this visit, I had the tagliatelle with chicken -- comforting, rich, and full of flavor. The slight sweetness of the sauce and WHITE CHOCOLATE topping (I know, sounds odd but trust) paired really well with the mushrooms and pancetta. The atmosphere is very family-oriented, and the staff is always welcoming. Our server, Jane, was only on her second day, but she went above and beyond to make our one-year anniversary feel special, even bringing us a complimentary cannoli. The ciabatta bread was also fantastic -- crunchy on the outside, soft inside -- and the olive oil and balsamic tasted fresh and light. We finished with the chocolate cake, which was rich and satisfying. This is a great spot for date nights, celebrations, or just a really good Italian dinner. Exceptional experience every time.

    Location was beautiful! However, once we were seated they gave us water and came back 10 minutes…read morelater and gave us only drink menus.... 15 minutes into the service, we finally received actual menus. Only two other tables at the time, so not busy at all. Service was not great. Very weird vibes in there with the staff and they seemed to not want to be there. Food was way too overpriced for how average it tasted. The sauces were very watery and food was insanely salty. Our whole table came home and stayed in the bathroom all night. We definitely thought the all the food was frozen and sauce was just poured on top. Has lots of potential, but this was not a good experience.

    Many people had told me about La Cava but most had not been there or "had always wanted to try it…read morebut never made it there". We fell into that later category, but finally got to make our first trip to La Cava to celebrate a birthday with 7 friends! To start, the most obviously unique aspect is that the restaurant is inside an old church! It is neat and the setting was great with the stained glass windows and large vaulted ceilings you would expect. Unfortunately for me the service didn't quite live up to the ambiance. We did receive our first round of drinks pretty quickly, however our glasses were empty for long enough after, that one from the group finally just got up and ordered a drink from the bar. When we did finally get our drink order taken, a couple waiters and waitresses took them together which just further complicated things. Similarly while we did not have drinks we were waiting to order our food for long enough we started wondering if they forgot about our table. For an Italian place with a decent emphasis on wine (they have many many bottles of wine all around the dining room) I would have liked to see a bit more of an Italian centric by the glass menu. They have a Chianti and a Montepulciano for reds, but could be a cool way to introduce people to some new wines instead of the same old California wines. As for the food, again, it was not bad, but with some tweaks could be something really special. I had the Veal Saltimbocca. The taste was fine, but the presentation left a lot to be desired. The veal was roughly the same thickness as the prosciutto topping it, and the sides of home fries and bland spinach were not great. I did love the sauce it was served with though. I heard similar complaints about the chicken gismonda from our group. However the beef stew and the Swordfish got pretty good reviews! Overall, I don't want to say it was bad, I could just see it easily being so much better. I would like to return and likely will to try some different things but will set expectations a bit better.

    I haven't been here in probably 15 years! We're glad to finally make it back. We went on a Sunday…read morenight and they were relatively busy, but not too bad. Sadly, the tables are right on top of each other so if the people behind you are inconsiderate.. you may or may not hear their entire conversation. Food wise, I got the Pollo Frances which was ok, I will likely try the Pollo Piccata next time! My husband tried the Pollo Pietro, which was good! He said he would like to try the chicken Parmesan next time. The below review is right. The menu prices do not reflect the prices you are charged. Which, I can see being deceiving, but also as someone who works at a restaurant, I understand. The cost of goods have been so wild, so I get that changes must be made and sometimes menus don't get updated. Overall, a loud environment, but we will go back to try something new!

    I was excited to finally try this restaurant with my parents as it's been a long-standing staple in…read morethe Salisbury downtown area. Luckily, my mom called ahead and snagged us a reservation for 6 people. The dining area is fairly small, and I think they may have struggled to accommodate us if they didn't know we were coming ahead of time.  To begin, we enjoyed sharing an appetizer and a bottle of wine. We ordered the Funghi Imbottiti and a bottle of the Rodney Strong Sauvignon Blanc. I enjoyed the mushrooms, which came smothered in an alfredo type sauce. Bread service was also provided for the table with an interesting vinaigrette with red onions in it for dipping. I believe this is the same vinaigrette that was served with my salad that came with my entree. The salad itself was nothing special. For my entree, I ordered the Crystal Scallops. The scallops themselves were cooked perfectly. The sauce on top was listed in the menu as an avocado cream sauce, but it just tasted like alfredo sauce to me. Not that I'm mad about it, I just expected a slightly different flavor profile. All the entrees come with a side of vegetable medley and a slice of cantaloupe. I thought the cantaloupe seemed a bit out of place, and the vegetables were sad and bland with no seasoning, seeming like an afterthought.  Overall, we enjoyed our time spent together among good company. The food was decent, but I don't think it's anything I would rush back for.
