I went with the diver scallops & risotto, and Dad went with the pork chop scarpariello - both were quite good. Service was timely and friendly.

We live down the street and had been in for dessert but never a meal…read more We made a reservation a few days in advance for a Friday evening, showed up at the correct time and they weren't ready. We waited at a random table because there were no seats at the bar. After 20 minutes they took us down to the basement where we sat alone. They said they didn't expect to be that busy that night but it was a random Friday night, but it seemed like they just overbooked and didn't really care about us. If it wasn't a pain to find parking and absolutely pouring, I probably would have left, the vibes were weird. Our waitress was really nice as was the busboy/food runner and made some good recommendations on the menu. Everything we had was decent enough, but not mind-blowing. I'd come back but not clamoring to come back right away.

I love how they have an underground cellar with wine so as you walk over to the dining area you pass by a glass floor displaying all the bottles beneath you. I thought that was kinda cool. Another cool thing was they had art work all over the restaurant walls to purchase if you were interested. There were so many beautiful pieces. But now let's get to the food! It was all amazing. I started off with a glass of Cabernet Sauvignon. Delish. Then I tried the Eggplant Torta with a tomato butter sauce. Delish. Another appetizer we shared was the Shrimp Toast with broccolini and capers in a lemon butter sauce. Again Delish. It started off so well and just kept getting better and better. My entree that I had, the Garganelli with wild mushrooms and truffle oil was out of this world. The lovely waitress recommended it and I was so happy she did. Great choice for someone who has never been there. As full as I was I always save room for dessert. I had the pumpkin pie martini and the white chocolate polenta cake. It was just the right amount of sweetness needed but not overfilling. Save me another seat La Tavola because I can't wait to come back for more!

There were clearly chunks of red tomato pieces in the sauce. It was not the pale orange look that I have come to know and love. I took home my leftovers and my teenagers said it was not vodka sauce. My coworker said the same thing about the sauce. We then ordered desert, the tiramiso was not mosit at all, it was just a piece of cake- also bland tasting as it needed the lite sweet drizzle, the almond cake X2, they was was just pound cake from entermans.
