    Outstanding food! We had been traveling for several hours, very hungry, and in need of something good. Yelp led us here, and we were so grateful! We arrived about an hour before closing, but the staff were still friendly, welcoming, and polite. It was a cool night, so we chose to eat outside -- the perfect ending to our day.

    The place promised Italian ingredients, and the tang of the tomatoes on my pizza suggested quality. Of course, quality tomatoes exist in the U.S. (it's an American plant), but I digress. My starter salad was substantial and full of flavor, and I was thrilled that their pizza specials actually matched up to my tastes for once. They like mushrooms, calabrian chili, and kale, and I got two of the above on my Vesuvius pizza. The style of pizza was more American though, given that it was drowning in cheese rather than dotted with a few blobs of fresh mozzarella. The residential-looking space had charm, with a framed document on the wall of the family's arrival as immigrants in New York a century ago. Plenty of people were working and there was no delay in service. Prices were significantly higher than what I'd read online, perhaps a sign of the times, but I certainly ended up stuffed; dessert was a no. Other than the typical caveats that classic Italian doesn't have much for those who avoid wheat and dairy, I couldn't ask a lot more from them.

    Shrimp scampi

    Small family owned restaurant that packs great hospitality and flavor! For the app we had the meatball trio, which was good. The sauce and cheese accompanying the meatballs were very good. The meatballs seemed to be a little dry but still had some good flavor. For entrees we had pizza and shrimp scampi. The pizza was good but the crust seemed to be somewhat undercooked. This is the second time having the pizza here and the first time could've been the best pizza in town. The shrimp scampi was a special for the night. The scampi was very good and the sauce was great. Overall the meal was good and we will be back.

    Peach cobbler

    The service was awesome, and the restaurant is such a nice vibe. Would definitely come back! The focaccia bread was amazing and peach cobbler. My entree was okay.

    Meatball appetizer, 6 meatballs total.

    La Famiglia is an excellent upscale option for dinner out, and is perfect for special occasions, impressing visitors, or anyone seeking excellent Italian food and a great selection of both beer and wine. I came here recently with a friend to give this place a try and it greatly exceeded my expectations. Richmond, VA spoiled me with its many excellent Italian restaurants, though La Famiglia is a true gem in an area without many options. I had a personal pizza on this occasion and got chicken Parmesan on a previous visit, with both proving to be delicious and well-portioned for the price. The wine list is extensive, and their Italian draft beer options are unique in the area; I had a Peroni, and I have yet to see that offered on draft anywhere else within 25 miles. While I did not partake in dessert, the menu was certainly appealing and if I hadn't been so full from the main course, I would definitely have availed myself of something from it! Seating is very intimate, with very little space in between tables, though the restaurant interior itself is appealing. The service is okay, though mostly unremarkable. Parking here is similarly tight, with no lot and only competitive street spots available. I recommend parking around the corner on the adjacent residential streets, long as you don't mind a four minute walk or so. I enjoyed my trip here and definitely plan to return in the future. Overall: 4.0 stars ----- Pros: - Excellent food and drink options. - Attractive interior, good for family events or dates. - Outdoor seating would be excellent on a spring evening. - Pricing is fair considering the quality of the fare offered. Cons: - Seating is somewhat cramped, more so when it's busy. - Lack of parking makes it a bit of a challenge here.

    I was in town for work and looked for some new places to try. This place came up in a review from…read moreanother site. I love Cajun food, so I thought I'd give it a try. When I said I was blown away, that isn't an exaggeration. I tried their sampler of the Jambalaya, red beans and rice, gumbo, and their shrimp étouffée with the cheesy grits. That étouffée with the cheesy grits blew my mind. The rest of the food was good, but that first bite of the étouffée was one of the best mouthfuls I've had in a very, very long time. So much flavor! I certainly didn't expect this in Huntington, WV. I wouldn't have thought there could be a hole-in-the-wall Cajun place in WV, but this is absolutely legit. So much so, that I went back the next day to get a full portion of their shrimp étouffée and try their shrimp po'boy sandwich. Again, it was nothing short of incredible. This place is small, but it deserves a lot of attention. The owner is a man of few words, but his food is absolutely fantastic. A restaurant never hits on everything and it's up to personal tastes, but those po'boys and that étouffée are absolute winners. It's unfortunately often the case that the small restaurants have some of the best food, and that is the case here. I am in Huntington for work often, and I absolutely will visit this place every time I'm there.

    It's the closest thing to New Orleans in WV. It's a quaint…read morelittle spot in a little shopping venue east of Pullman Square in Huntington. No kitchen on site, but other than missing some "deep fried goodness" in a very few dishes, everything is always great. Yesterday we "lucked out" and they had just run out of their muffuletta sandwiches. They immediately offered to make us one fresh in a 'Po Boy bun. Personally I preferred it this way. :) Staff is always fun & helpful. A Definite regular spot for us when we're visiting Huntington, WV
