" A gem in Old Town Alexandria! From the moment we walked in, we felt welcomed and valued. The staff was exceptional—very attentive and knowledgeable about the menu. I particularly loved the gnocchi; it was homemade and full of flavor. The live jazz music created a lovely atmosphere that made our dinner memorable. Worth every penny! " (*Curated Review*)

" What a delightful experience! Laporta's has this charm that is hard to find. We started with their calamari and it was so fresh! The main course was equally fantastic; I had the seafood crepe that was bursting with flavors. The service was top-notch, and we felt very well looked after throughout our meal. I would recommend this restaurant to anyone! " (*Curated Review*)

" I took my wife here as a surprise for our anniversary, and it exceeded all expectations. Every dish we tried was well prepared, particularly the seared scallops, which were incredible! The jazz music added a great vibe to our evening, making it memorable. The only downside was that parking can be a bit of a hassle in the area, so plan ahead! " (*Curated Review*)

" We tried Laporta's for a birthday celebration and it was an incredible evening. The ambiance was intimate, enhanced by beautiful jazz music. Our appetizers were on point, and my main dish of halibut was cooked perfectly! Special shoutout to the chocolate mousse cake for dessert—just heavenly! Would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had high expectations for Laporta's after hearing great things from friends and family alike. The interior was beautifully decorated, creating a fantastic atmosphere. However, I was slightly let down by my meal, a chicken dish that seemed somewhat bland and uninspired. The dessert, however, was exquisite! They really know how to finish on a high note. Service was good, so I might give it another chance. " (*Curated Review*)

" Dining at Laporta’s is an experience. I was shocked at how warm and welcoming the staff were. I ordered the shrimp risotto, and it was one of the best I've ever had! The jazz in the background really elevated the ambiance. However, I wish there were more vegetarian options on the menu; my friend had a hard time finding something that appealed to her. Regardless, the evening was lovely! " (*Curated Review*)

" Absolutely loved this place! The food was outstanding, and the live music created an amazing vibe. I had the clam pasta, which I can highly recommend. It was bursting with freshness and flavor. The service staff was attentive and friendly. If you're looking for an unforgettable dining experience, this is the place to be! " (*Curated Review*)
