La Masseria Restaurant is inspired from ancient fortified farmhouses that in the Puglia Region of Italy are called “Masseria”. Executive Chef/Co-Owner, Pino Coladonato, grew up on a Farm in Puglia. He was forced to eat whatever was available but soon was tired of bean puree and decided to take matters into his own hands, creating new ways to use the same few ingredients. Now, with limitless ingredients to choose from, fava beans, chickpeas and lentils are still a core element in many of his entrees. Interior Designer Libby Langdon has created a warm, inviting dining atmosphere. Rustic and relaxed, with plenty of old world charm. Oversize iron sconces custom made from antique wrought iron gates punctuate the walls, and artful displays of antique farm tools mixed with various authentic Italian photographs all add to the farmhouse appeal. The 250-bottle wine list encompasses all regions of Italy with few of the best American and the rest of the world.

    La Masseria never disappoints. It always feels like we are coming home: the food and the service were excellent as always. Everyone works to make it a special place to dine for any occasion, or just, let's have a great dining experience. Thank you for a wonderful evening.

    Excellent table. Superb service. Meal was - as always - uniformly excellent, both the specials and the standards. Craft cocktails well-done by Alexander. We dined before theatre - staff always ensures that the meal is not rushed, but also timed well to get us out for the curtain. Our friends had never been and were delighted with a new find for them.

    This is one busy restaurant, but they get your food out very quickly if you have a curtain. Our food was delicious (the ravioli special and the always-popular Bolognese, zucchini appetizer to start & Tiramisu to finish). Our server was professional and welcoming. Our only complaint, and it won't keep us away, is that space is tight. It's hard not to know your neighbor's business.

    Our third time to go to La Masseria for lunch. Absolutely love the meat tray and fried zucchini appetizers. We have eaten several dishes of pasta and have not been disappointed. Service is outstanding as well. Highly recommend!
