I've been to La Tavola's many times. It's right up the street from my house. I highly recommend when making reservation to as for John as your server. He is very professional and knows the menu. Plus takes very good care of you. The food here is amazing. If your coming for your first time I recommend going on a week night. It gets very busy on the weekend and sometimes the food and service wasn't as good as it should have been. Their calamari di ablo is the best I've ever had!!! And if you like rack of lamb theirs is to die for!
