Best Authentic Restaurants in Chestnut Hill

Mixed review for food. Shrimp scampi and calamari were excellent. Eggplant parm was disappointing - dry and presented on a plate of wilted arugula rather than what I remember as a casserole dish out of the oven which was rich, saucy and cheesy. Tiramisu was okay but not great. I think the food was better in the past. I would try them one more time and order fettuccini Alfredo which I remember being very good. Service was great.

I’ve been to Spring Mill Cafe many times over the past 15+ years and always have a wonderful experience. The food and the atmosphere is the best around for a nice, quiet evening out.

We had a thoroughly enjoyable, delicious meal at La Collina from start to finish and would highly recommend. Service was exceptional and each one of us had a great dinner. The pasta special was outstanding (do not hesitate), but I have to admit that the gorgonzola filled gnocchi enjoyed by my GF were pretty amazing as well. Her husband had no difficulty devouring his entire chicken park and my husband was delighted that he could order and enjoy veal parm not included on the menu. While I do not usually order my own dessert, I just could not pass up the Lemon Gelato with Limoncello and I have to say that it was positively amazing. I cannot recall having such an unusual and memorable dessert and only wish I could re-create it. It was served in a champagne flute and I refused to leave a trace behind. Our server was extremely professional and very pleasant. It was a Tuesday evening and the restaurant was pleasantly quiet and she permitted us to stay and visit without rushing us out the door. Our valet kindly brought our vehicles to the front door and delivered the keys to our table so we were able to avoid getting wet with the light rain. Very thoughtful. All in all a great meal and we are already looking forward to a return visit.

Great little family run neighborhood BYOB with reliably great Italian fare We are frequent customers due to quality and friendliness

Second time here in the last few months and tonight confirmed we need to come more. We tried all different things on the menu. Just yummy variety. The service is attentive and accurate.
