    We’ve been coming here for a couple years now they changed the menu to the better. They used to have veal Parm medallions now they have a 14 ounce veal chop. Parm pounded out. It was one of the best ones I’ve ever had in my life.! Excellent food always very good

    Lafatona Coast is always a pleasure. Food excellent. Most recent visit we had veal osso buco and the chicken francese special with lobster. Both were excellent.

    The specials were creative and varied, they have started selling wine in house which is a nice option if you are not a BYO person, the service was crisp and pleasant, the pace of the meal was appropriately timed, the seafood was fresh and quite tasty. My favorite, the Branzino was out of stock but the salmon filled in nicely, the clams were spot on and the Caprese was sublime. The only small misstep of the evening was ice cold bread which is a nonstarter for my wife so please have the bread either fresh and hot or reheated just before serving as it really changes the experience.

    We had a wonderful dining experience at La Fontana! We chose a lovely Chardonnay to accompany his Seafood Special and my Veal Medallions Fontana! We began with the Caprese Salad - the lightness and subtle flavor of the mozzarella was something to behold. The Seafood Special was in a light rose sauce, chock full of delicious scallops and shrimp. The Veal Fontana was superb - thin medallions of veal, in a luxurious mushroom sauce accompanied by fingerling roasted potatoes and broccoli. We finished off the evening with a light, spongy, limoncello cake, simply delicious, accompanied by a glass of limoncello! Perfection! Was a teeny bit bustling with multigenerational families, the night before Thanksgiving, but that was to be expected. Service was impeccable! Will definitely return for another wonderful meal!
