" I have been to La Minestra several times, and the past few visits have been hit or miss. My last visit was not great; the food took too long to come out, and my order was mixed up. When I finally received it, it didn’t taste fresh and seemed like it had been sitting for a while. The staff was polite, but I can't help but feel that they've lost some of their previous spark. I hope they can overcome these recent issues because I really love their food! " (*Curated Review*)

" Our experience at La Minestra was unfortunately not great. After a lengthy wait for a table, the service was slow once seated, and the food was less than fresh. The flavor of my fish dish was bland, and I was looking for something special based on the reviews. The only positive was the atmosphere, which was welcoming and cozy. However, with so many other good places, I might not return soon. " (*Curated Review*)

" Having traveled to Italy multiple times, I can say that La Minestra comes quite close to offering genuine Italian cuisine. I ordered the ravioli, which was exquisite. The stuffing was rich and full of flavor, and the portion was just right. The service was prompt and cheerful, and I found the interior to be a perfect blend of authenticity and charm. I'll be spreading the word about this hidden gem! " (*Curated Review*)

" Dining at La Minestra was a real treat! The ambiance is perfect for enjoying a meal, and the food – it was fresh, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. I had the seafood linguine, and it did not disappoint. Our server was friendly and attentive, adding to the overall experience. I will definitely come back again, perhaps to try their rustic pizzas next. " (*Curated Review*)

" We frequent La Minestra often, and we love it, but our last visit fell short. The food was still good, but we noticed that the service was lacking; our server seemed overwhelmed and distracted. My pizza was satisfactory, but it wasn't the hot, fresh experience we usually receive. The ambiance is still fantastic, and we will continue to return, just hoping the service improves next time.

" Reminiscing about my meal at La Minestra makes my mouth water! The pasta primavera was vibrant and fresh – so much flavor! The owner was very engaging and even shared some insights about the restaurant's history, which I appreciated. The atmosphere felt cozy and intimate, perfect for date night. I will certainly be recommending La Minestra to all my friends in the area! " (*Curated Review*)

" Visiting La Minestra felt like stepping into a slice of Italy right in Pierre! The pasta was made fresh daily, and I could really tell. The Alfredo sauce was creamy and rich, and the garlic knots they served were the perfect starter. The charismatic staff really knows how to make you feel welcome, although the restaurant was quite busy. Overall a fantastic experience that made me feel I was dining in a true Italian locale!
