  • Neighborhood gem
  • Good for special occasions

La Tavola translates to “the table” in Italian—a place where friends and families can gather anytime. Simple yet elegant dishes, classic sauces and creative entrees emphasize the true taste of Italy’s premier ingredients, complemented by a carefully chosen and extensive wine selection.

La Tavola’s exposed brick, dark wood floors and rustic colors give the restaurant its authentic trattoria feel, while progressive touches hint at its innovative cuisine. And with indoor seating for 60 guests, a small bar and an outdoor covered patio for 40 or more, the space is just right for celebrating any occasion together.

And as usual, we so enjoyed being with the folks who work at La Tavola. Beth does such a great job coordinating everything.

                                                      Have loved La Tavola for over 20 years but this was not a great experience. They have crammed so many tables into an already tight space that it made for an uncomfortable and stressful dining experience. Our table was jammed into a space that wasn’t big enough for 4 and so tight that the people sitting at the bar couldn’t get out of their chairs without us getting up and letting them out. Same for the table next to us. I understand the need to make a profit but it’s coming at the expense of a pleasant dining experience for the customers. We asked to be moved to an empty booth and were told it was “claimed”. Disappointed to say the least.

                                                      This is our go-to Italian restaurant in Va-Hi. The food is outstanding and so is the service! We love this place.

                                                      Always a wonderful tasty meal. We've been coming here for years and it's a consistently a lovely evening. Truly a neighborhood gem.

                                                      We both had a Caesar salad that was delicious. I had the veal meatballs with polenta appetizer; it was perfect. My friend had pasta with mushrooms and truffles. Yummy, yummy. We both agreed we would get the same things again and again!
