Drink The Wine, Eat The Pasta
US$36.00 per person
Multiple dates available
Let's be honest, the best conversations have been made over Pasta & Wine. Whether its shouting from the rooftops proclaiming true love, or the obligatory full mental breakdown over a work email. Pasta and a good (or bad) bottle has always been there. Its what defines us. It's what makes us who we are. Michelangelo didn't paint the Sistine Chapel on an empty stomach. He was inspired by the mouth-watering combination of cheesy, perfectly al dente, godly bowl of pasta & a dry, peppery glass of vino. Let's pay an homage to Italy by offering your next memorable experience with us. We will be offering a Cacio e Pepe & Wine Tasting for $35. You get to choose 3, 2oz. pours off our wine list accompanied by a dish a Cacio E Pepe.

My husband and I came here for dinner on a Saturday night to celebrate our wedding anniversary. The host was very friendly and attentive even though the restaurant was busy. We sat at a table on their back patio which was lovely. Our server was amazing - very friendly and happy to have us there and she brought us complimentary prosecco since she knew we were there for a special occasion. We had cocktails, apps, salads and a homemade pasta dish - all were delicious! We took dessert home for later. Highly recommend LaRosa! Be sure to make a reservation if you don't want a long wait - they are very busy on weekends.

Poor service from hostess to server. Tables too close together and makes dining feel communal. At this price point the decent food not worth all the other negatives.

The service was excellent! We had an impromptu 70th birthday party for my sister, who came from N.Y. Kierra was very helpful. She moved our reservation time more than once to accommodate their change in travel plans and arranged for a delicious birthday cake. Everything was perfect. Thank you for a lovely evening!

First time eating here and the food tasted great. The service was excellent. Only complaint is the noice level was very high in the bar area that we were seated in. Hard to talk to each other. We had meatballs and arancini’s for apps. Chicken Milanese for main and cannoli and tiramisu for dessert. All were excellent.
