We were lucky enough to come when the owner was serving tables. First. The bread. The crunchy, salty, garlicky crust didn't need a thing. Not butter. Not olive oil. Her dad makes it and it's perfect. We had the zucchini planks, and they are so good hot...had another bite halfway through dinner...and they are good cold. We also had the grilled artichokes. Fresh and tasty. The ravioli was filled with creamy cheese, a meatball on the side was perfect. Matt had the veal parm and it was crunchy with delicious marinara. Two glasses of wine and a homemade coke for dessert all under 100. We will be back read more

La Cucina Italian Grill - Zucchini and artichoke - Italian Near Me - Weirton, West Virginia

Tried this lovely restaurant for the first time and it quickly became my favorite! [[HIGHLIGHT]]The restaurant is on the smaller side and seems to fill up rather fast.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Our waitress was very friendly and gave top notch service even though she was super busy. I ordered the wedding soup to start with and the fettuccine chicken alfredo for my entree. Both were really good! Also the fresh bread that they serve with the meal is delicious. We ordered the New York style cheesecake to go and it was absolutely the best. I highly recommend giving this place a try. read more

Shrimp salad dinner entree: only 4 medium grilled shrimp --add a couple more shrimp to the entree. It was a disappointing first meal. Pricier than anticipated for a $$ rating. Otherwise food and service were good. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Ambiance is meh if that is important for your dining experience.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Wonderful staff and experience, I felt very warm and welcomed being here. I just came in from a 12 hour flight and no sleep the last 24 hours between work and moving. It was really nice to sit down and chat with the waitress here this afternoon. They were both gems and I left smiling. I can't wait to come back here. I had the potato gnocchi pasta which was delicious and the salad. Lunch special is great! read more

$5 lemonade?? with no refill...valentine lunch was not good...Was told that there werent any specials, 3 minutes later i overheard another waitress telling another table the specials...seriously??? the portions were so small..2 pieces of brucshetta for $15...ridiculous... 4 fried raviolis for $16, really??? $32 pizza, it was good, but that is a bit much....the chicken picatta only has 1 chicken breast, terrible!!!! Do better La Cucina!!!! i have had good food & service there before, but, considering not going back....DISAPPOINTED read more

Incredibly mediocre italian food at astoundingly high prices. Absolutely not worth a visit at all. If the menu prices were cut by half it might be more palatable but, as is, it is a hard pass for me. Will not be visiting again. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]This was absolutely great, I went with some family and finding it was like a little hidden gem being inside on a chilly day makes you feel warm, and happy the lighting and seating was great and comfortable.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]The food was delicious I got the baked ziti and enjoyed every bit of it I had plenty left that I took home. Now our waiter was great as well as how quickly the food came out. read more

Restaurant was Understaffed and the portions were small for the enormous price they ask you to pay chicken piccata was tiny for over $20 salad was wilted and warm won't be going back read more

Amazing fresh delicious and fresh. We wanted to go back several years later but couldn't remember the name. Friends of ours told us about an extraordinary restaurant in Weirton, WV and it jogged our memory. We will revisit them. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Space is pretty small, and it was crowded on a Saturday night, but we didn't have to wait for a table.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Service was just so-so; our waitress was nice but could've been a little more attentive. I did not like the alfredo I got - I thought it could've used a little more flavor because it just tasted like cream and really needed salt. The pasta was also undercooked and stuck together. But my husband had a steak and it was AMAZING. The pasta that came with it, which had red sauce, was also so good. I would definitely go back and pick something else to eat! read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Ambiance lacking[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]], service was poor-our dinners came to the table at different times and our drink order never came; , food just average and way overpriced along with the wine selection read more

Excellent food. Fresh bread and salad. Excellent service! Bought homemade canolli to take home!

Very disappointed. The City of Weirton has been experiencing water issues for a few months. Our waitress addressed the water boil order to us-which was fine. We were charged $3 a bottle of water-nothing like taking advantage of the situation!! Pittsburgh prices in Weirton, WV. Like previous posts, the price gouging at La Cucina is ridiculous. read more

Excellent, flavorful food. We had the artichoke appetizer served on a peppery green with balsamic vinegar. Yum ! The flavors were perfectly complementary! We also had lasagna, which was very generously sized and was one of the best I've ever had. The veal Parmesan was very good and generously sized to with a nice pasta on the side! If my travels take me near there again, I'm definitely going back! read more

Sunday dinner is always a hit here! You won't go wrong with any menu item! Menu and drink selection is great, staff is always friendly. Absolutely recommend! read more

The food here is delicious. I have never had any complaints about the food. [[HIGHLIGHT]]But in Weirton, WV, if you want to charge me $36 for a plate of linguine and tomato sauce with four scallops on top, you better provide me some unparalleled ambiance -- which isn't happening in a second-use pizza restaurant with tiled floors and fluorescent lighting.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

The three stars is for the service today, but the food is a definite five. Today we had Lori as a server and the experience was definitely different from Diedra's Diedra is by far a great server with great interpersonal skills and personality. We will now ask for Diedra which we will do moving forward to ensure a great experience. This place is amazing with their regular menu and a great variety of daily specials. We will be back soon but wanted to share our recent dining experience. read more

The service was good, the waitress did a great job. But the food was bland, it was like the cooks were still in the 1700's with the lack of spices they put on the food. Also a %4 charge when using a card was unexpected should probably be posted somewhere (unless it's common WV practice). read more

Very good food and service. A true diamond in the rough ! Far better than any chain restaurant you would find around here. Bread and salads were great. We liked our pasta dishes, but we found the house sauce a bit spicy. Lots of daily specials. We would definitely return. read more

Great food and friendly staff. We sat outside to enjoy the beautiful day. The Stuffed Banana Peppers were so good. I had the Chicken Parmigiana, amazing. The bread was delicious. All the food had tasted homemade with quality ingredients. read more

My husband and I had a very delicious dinner. I loved the menu choices. We decided the calamari app was the best we have ever had! I had spaghetti and meatballs and my husband had baked ziti. Sauce is traditional and on spot. Garlic butter bread is addicting. Service was awesome! Definitely a must try from an Italian cook! read more

Saw the review on Yelp and realized it was right on my way from the airport to Wheeling. So glad I checked it out. Nice, clean cozy restaurant with superb service, prices and FOOD! Everything is homemade and delicious. I got the New York pizza and it was delicious! Although it was ten inches they loaded it up with toppings and it could easily feed two folks. My server was very attentive and knew the menu like the back of her hand. She recited the specials of the day to me perfectly, no stuttering or littered with "umm" or "uh" just perfect relaying of information. Very impressive. I can't believe I have been driving right by this place for years! If you like Italian food you have to give this place a try. read more

La Cucina never disappoints, even during a pandemic! My husband and I bought takeout and it was superb. I ordered Chicken Marsala and he ordered Chicken piccata. I think that was the best Marsala I ever had. It was so tasty and the sides were fabulous too. I have plenty for lunch tomorrow. We're visiting the area because a relative came down with COVID. While we're here we always try to catch a meal at La Cucina. Fabulous. read more

Food was delicious, perfectly made from appetizers to desserts. Service was attentive and friendly but professional. It's a clean, comfortable space, not a white-tablecloth place but an attractive casual one. We will definitely return soon. read more

The food was very good. I had Toscana Salas with shrimp, and wedding soup, my husband had the chicken Parmigiano. The service well we had the waitress Sharon who never told us the special, she was not at all friendly. She was too damn worried about the party of 7. I noticed she waited on the couple next to us and she never gave the special either. The other waitresses were friendly and gave their customers the special of the day. So if we go back which I don't think we will, it's because of Sharon. read more

Food was ok typical Italian food we did the spaghetti and meatballs. Was ok but wozzer the price!!! We paid over $38.00 for 2 orders!! Nothing added on. So if you have more money then you know what to do with go here. read more

We went there on Valentines Day so a little busy. The first thing you notice is that it's a little smokey inside. The exhaust seemed to not be working so well. The board at the check in counter had lots of specials. Our waitress went over them in detail with many seafood options. She told us about several imported wines. She made this a great dining experience. I started out with a red wine sangria, sweet like kool-aid but I could drink a pitcher of it. We had a crab dip appetizer that turned out to be a really, really good choice. The salad was cosi-cosi. Good house dressing but the ranch was out of a bottle - just yuck. Our waitress brought out a warm basket of garlic rolls but I needed dipping sauce or butter. That's just how I roll. We opted for some favorites - Chicken Parm and Veal Parm with a meatball chaser. Better than most restaurants. The folks beside us had Fettuccini Alfredo topped with scallops in a mushroom sauce. Looked amazing. You can tell the owner/cook had a few days cooking behind her. Finished off with Italian lemon cake. We will definitely be back. This one is a no brainer. read more

So, I've been to La Cucina a couple times since my first review. The result is still the same. I've gotten their NY pizza and its magnificent. Crispy crust, and lots of cheese and the toppings aplenty. I love this place. The service is always good, they have great specials, and its right on the main drag of Weirton where most of the good stuff is. read more

Tuscan grilled chicken with sun dried tomatoes, artichoke hearts, spinach and creamy sauce on bed of noodles. With stuffed meatballs and house salad. That's what's for dinner. Highly recommend this hidden treasure in Weirton, WV. read more

This place has some GREAT FOOD. The staff could use some work. They take forever to get your drinks, and every time i have been here they brought the wrong drinks but no one is perfect. They are always packed too. Their egg plant fries ( appetizer) is a must. Their prices are also a little high but every item i have got was delicious. Even their salads are tasty read more

Great food !! Good service. Authentic Pizza !! I go as often as possible. I would highly recommend this place for someone hungry for Italian. read more

Not a huge Italian food fan, but the waitress suggested the Stromboli! Amazing!! Fresh baked, and loaded with toppings. Service was excellent from the time my son and I walked through the door! Restaurant very clean, with a hint of Italy! Have only been there once, I will return for sure- read more

Normally I would praise this place up one side and down the other but last evening I made a reservation for 2. We went in and was told we didn't have a reservation and would have to wait. The young lady at the stand was not polite about it at all. So we left. My son in law really wanted to eat there so he made a reservation for tonight. We went in and again, no reservation found. He attempted to tell the same young lady that he made a reservation and she said, " I don't take the phone calls." So much for customer service. She had None! Maybe that business is doing so well they can afford to turn away customers. It's a shame because the food is good but don't expect to be treated respectful. read more

We went here for our Anniversary dinner. Someone told us not to because it was very expensive. I looked at the online menu and it was a tad high but nothing horrible. We sat down and the server was nice. Came over offered us drinks and asked about an appetizer. She told us the "specials". I put them in " " because in no way were these items we ordered SPECIAL. she made it sound like a deal. My husband got spring noodles with crab and sauce. It was good but $30. I got a steak and it also was good but $64. Maybe our fault for not asking the price but who does that? If you tell me you have specials I'm thinking it's gonna be compatible with the menu price or maybe a deal and NOT triple what your menu items go for. We had 1 drink each. An appetizer and our meal and it was $140. Not including the tip. I guess lessened learned and I gave the 3 stars cause the food was good but nothing extra special and definitely not worth $140 for 2 people. read more

Best meal I've had in a long time. The bread is delicious. I had glazed salmon and that was also wonderful read more

This Italian restaurant has a amazing food. Everything was freshly cooked and hot right out in front of you. The cheese was imported from Italy. You can tell don't believe it? Try it yourself. Service was also wonderful. The muscles were huge around this time of year if your big seafood fan even if weren't I think it's something worth trying because the way it's cooked matters. It's hard to find seafood that's cooked properly. It's hard to find good cooked calamari. This place the only place I found that taste just like the ones you get at the beach. I recommend taking at least one visit to it. It's something to go to for special occasions more. read more

Everything here is fantastic. Apps, soups, entrees, pizza. The chocolate chunk cookies are amazing and the staff is awesome.

This place was great when it first opened. They have since let the quality decline. It's an ok place if that's what you are looking for "ok". The quality of the food has suffered from lack of taste. I hope they go back to when they opened with the recipe. read more
