When the family needed a new Christmas tradition we looked for a intimate, quant, family owned restaurant that felt like just like Nonna's. La Sera is it. We started with sharing the Mussels, Arugula Beet Salad, and the Calamari. Your gonna need a pairing but since this is BYOB you bring what makes sense but we brought a Vermintino for the White Sauces and a DOCG Chianti reserve to compliment the red sauces. Pick your battle. The staff was attentive, helpful, personable and fast. Waters never lowered beyond a halffull. Nonna would be proud. After trying everything you really can't go wrong, if your curious I suggest the Spaghetti Carbonara, Chicken Parmesan, or the Alfredo Linguine they were impressive. If you still have room and you should make sure you do...I suggest the Tiramisu or th

This compact space serves up delicious food. I like that the kitchen is open and clean. As is the restroom. Everyone enjoyed their meal. Service isn’t overly attentive, which is fine. They still give a free bread basket - so rare and so appreciated. Especially when the bread is delicious - tasted like Sarcone The downside that would make it difficult to return to is the noise level. They even have some attempts at noise deadening but it’s not working. I take sound measurements via an app called “SoundPrint” and this was almost as loud as Xfinity Live down by the stadiums. We found it difficult to have a conversation.

Absolutely amazing first time experience. The olive oil is very high quality, and reminded me of true authentic Italian cuisine. They were very kind and welcoming for a busy holiday season. Definitely will be back soon ❣️ Thank you!

★★★☆☆ 3.0 I AM JE VEUX · Oct 2025

This has got to be a bad joke. I believe these are the same people that "own and operate" the creamery shop next door. But restaurant...chile nooooo! Food was horrible no flavor, all i could do was take two bites and that was the app. Thank god thats all I ordered. Very bland and not well executed. I got the broccoli rabe and sausage and it was exactly that just mashed together. No color no nothing They dont even smile or welcome you in.. I think they thought I was sticking up the place cause I had my du rag on never again will I come to this place for dinner. Very laughable . Just stick to the ice cream. Perfect that first! I get the idea with the two businesses side by side but geesh.. when it becomes all about the buck and not the service you have a problem... i bumped it up to three st

★★★★★ 5.0 Allison Lopez-Martinez · Mar 2025

The food was truly amazing, one of the best burgers I've had in a long time. The fries were seasoned well, and the chicken sandwich was also amazing. The lemonade was very refreshing and a good balance between sweet and tart. The cheesecake was rhe perfect about of sweet and you could taste the richness. And on top of the amazing food the staff was very nice and the music was very pleasant. I would really recommend this place for lunch.
