" La Vecchia Fontana always knocks it out of the park! Each time I come, I am blown away by the quality of the food. The lobster rigatoni is extraordinary! Mario is always pleasant, and he makes the experience even better. I can't wait for my next visit to this terrific restaurant! " (*Curated Review*)

" Every time I try La Vecchia Fontana, I leave with a smile. Consistent quality in both food and service is what brings me back. The Bolognese was rich and full-bodied. Simply delightful! Mario does an exceptional job in managing the floor. Definitely a must for anyone seeking good Italian in Avalon. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a less than stellar experience at La Vecchia Fontana. Our party waited over an hour for our food and the waiter seemed to forget about us. When our meals finally arrived, they were underwhelming in flavor. I expected more based on the reviews, but I’m not sure I’ll be returning any time soon. " (*Curated Review*)

" This Italian restaurant is like a second home to me! The staff knows me by name and always greets me warmly. My favorite dish is the seafood linguine. It's abundant and tastes amazing! A must-try for anyone who appreciates authentically prepared Italian cuisine! " (*Curated Review*)

" I've been to La Vecchia Fontana several times, and it never disappoints. The lobster ravioli is my go-to dish, always fresh and delicious. The staff is friendly, especially Mario, who always makes me feel welcome. The only downside is that it can get busy, so I recommend making a reservation. Overall, a fantastic dining experience!
