" Had a great time at La Panetteria last weekend! The restaurant captures a warm and inviting vibe with its Italian decor. We ordered a variety of dishes to share and enjoyed everything from the bruschetta to the milanesa. The standouts were the risotto and the homemade pasta, both of which had rich, authentic flavors that transported us straight to Italy. Service was fantastic - our drinks were refilled promptly and our server made excellent recommendations. Perfect for a celebratory dinner with friends or a cozy date night! " (*Curated Review*)

" La Panetteria is a charming restaurant with a lovely setup and very friendly staff. The food was tasty but not as authentic as I would have liked. I ordered a pasta dish and while it was good, it felt more like something you’d find in a mainstream Italian chain rather than a family-owned place with a focus on authenticity. I'd highly recommend going for the atmosphere and service, but be aware that the food might not live up to a true Italian experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" Our trip to La Panetteria was marked by fantastic food and even better service. We enjoyed the creamy risotto paired with a fruity wine choice recommended by our server. The desserts were also remarkable; I particularly loved the chocolate cake! The warm atmosphere really added to the experience. Overall, a fantastic place to dine, and it certainly left a lasting impression on us. I can't wait to come back again soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" La Panetteria has become our go-to spot for family dinner nights! We love the relaxed atmosphere and the menu has options for everyone, including vegetarians. The bread served at the start is quite delicious, with olive oil that complements it perfectly. Our kids enjoyed the pizza but we were really impressed by the lasagna, which had a great flavor profile. To top it off, the service was excellent, attentive yet unobtrusive. It’s wonderful to find a place where we can all enjoy good food together. We'll be returning again soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" The atmosphere was lovely at La Panetteria, but unfortunately, the food didn’t meet expectations. I ordered the lasagna, but it was a little dry and lacked depth in flavor. My dining companion had the pasta al pomodoro, which was flavorful but not outstanding. The service was friendly and attentive, though, which was a plus. I might consider giving it another shot in the future, perhaps trying different menu items. " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited La Panetteria during lunch hours and it was surprisingly calm and pleasant. The service was unnecessary to rush, which I appreciated. I ordered the fettuccine with pesto, while my colleague had the meat dish. Both were decent but a bit on the bland side for my taste. The atmosphere didn’t quite match what I expected from the outside look. However, it was comfortable enough to enjoy a casual lunch. I wouldn’t go out of my way to return, but if I’m nearby, I may consider it again. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a little bit of a mixed experience at La Panetteria. While the staff was friendly and welcoming, my pasta was a bit overcooked. The flavors were pleasant, but consistency seems to be an issue. This was my first visit, so perhaps I’ll visit again to see if this was an off night for them. " (*Curated Review*)
