" Overall, a nice dining experience! The pasta was fresh, and the sauces tasted homemade. I was less impressed by the service; we waited quite a while for the check at the end. Would definitely revisit for the food alone. " (*Curated Review*)

" What a delightful place! The outdoor seating options truly enhance the dining experience, especially on a warm summer evening. We indulged in the classic chicken parmigiana and it was nothing short of spectacular. The portion sizes left us feeling very satisfied. The staff was attentive, yet we didn't feel rushed. A definite must-visit again soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" What a treat! We discovered La Pergola while seeking a new dining spot for our anniversary. The food was heavenly—creamy osso buco and the freshest bread you've ever had. The service was very attentive without being intrusive. Highly recommend this place! " (*Curated Review*)

" A truly delightful meal. The presentation of seafood dishes like the lobster risotto was heavenly. The staff offered engaging conversation and thoughtful recommendations. The ambiance is perfect for a romantic evening, though I hope the menu expands soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" This is hands down my favorite place for Italian food! The chicken parm is phenomenal; it’s crispy and well-portioned. I often come here for a casual dinner with friends and they never disappoint. The outdoor garden area feels both homey and upscale at the same time. " (*Curated Review*)

" Visited La Pergola for the first time after hearing the buzz, and it was delightful! I had the special ravioli and it was exquisite. The ambiance is perfect for a nice dinner and the staff did a fantastic job taking care of us. We left with smiles and could not wait to return. " (*Curated Review*)

" I met a friend here for lunch and immediately fell in love with the courtyard. The atmosphere is casual but elegant, and the food—absolutely divine. Both of us had the short rib gnocchi, an experience that will be hard to beat. " (*Curated Review*)
