    La Connessa was a great experiment. It must be a neighborhood/after work place, as it fills up quickly after 5:30. The service was friendly from entry to exit. Our bartender Linda would definitely be someone to go back and have a laugh with and get served a great drink. And, the food was delicious! We look forward to going back!

    We were celebrating a graduation and started off as a party of 8, then 9, then finally a whopping 13. The staff was incredibly easy to work with and they accommodated us perfectly. The grad’s phone died so he asked if he could charge it and the hostess obliged. Our server was the absolute best, he asked the kitchen for a special order and it was tweaked to suit the individual. He was more than attentive, he really was just amazing and made the dinner that much better. I ordered the bolognese and paired it with a Barber wine, it was the perfect combo and I was very impressed. The ambience gave me art deco vibes and the lighting against the bar set the mood. I will be coming back and I really do believe that the entire staff made the night top tier.

    Overall great experience. Ambiance is great, nice quiet neighborhood. Service was overall friendly and helpful though at time a bit slow. Apps and entrees came out and a good pace, and quality and flavors were very very good however a couple of guests in my party said it wasn't very hot when it got to the table. We did wait about 10min for a single order of ice cream at the end. Would recommend

    Rudy was an AMAZING host! I’ve dined here a few times, but he definitely made this my favorite experience. He was very attentive and such a pleasure the banter with. This was my friends’ first times here and they can agree that his service really put their experience over the top. The food was great, as per usual, but the stand out dish was the pizza — it was cooked perfectly, no droopy center. As one of my go to places for dinner, I’m happy to share that you’re now added to two more people’s go-to lists
