The restaurant is beautiful, the service is good, and the crowd is lovely.

However, I am Italian, and this did not feel like authentic Italian cuisine. It leans more toward American-Italian.

The burrata appetizer was quite petite, although the salad itself was tasty. I would recommend offering a more generous portion or even a dish where the burrata is the main feature rather than a small addition.

The limoncello was also good.

Overall, the restaurant delivers and it’s a nice place to go, but I was expecting something a bit more special and truly authentic.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Stopped by La Traviata during a work trip and couldn’t have asked for a better meal or experience. The food was outstanding from start to finish, but what really stood out was the service — both bartenders were incredibly attentive, friendly, and made us feel genuinely taken care of the entire evening.

It’s always a great feeling when you can actually enjoy a proper meal while traveling for work, and La Traviata delivered on every front. Highly recommend the beef carpaccio to start and the carbonara, which absolutely lived up to the hype — rich, perfectly balanced, and cooked flawlessly.

Fantastic food, excellent service, and a great atmosphere. Would absolutely return and highly recommend.

I really enjoy Italian restaurants, and I hadn’t had the chance to visit this one before, so it was a very pleasant surprise. The place is small and cozy, with a nice atmosphere and very friendly staff.

We started with the calamari, which was really good. My friend and I shared the milanesa, it was very large and delicious, served with pasta that was also quite good. My husband ordered the chicken parmesan, which he really enjoyed. We also tried a fettuccine with portobello mushrooms, and it was very tasty.

Overall, great service, good food, and a lovely place. I definitely recommend it.

Just popped in after a game. Sat at the bar. Great service from the ladies behind the bar . Food delicious! Endive prosciutto salad to start and Cheese ravioli with short rib special ….lots of short rib and lots of flavor! Even my New Jersey hubby approved of the chicken parm! We will be back!

We came here for dinner and loved the vibe of this place. It had beautiful aesthetics with all the soft lighting. Our server was great and overall service was quick. My one negative for the evening was all our food was warm and not exactly hot. I wish it was hotter.

We got Arancini, mushroom fettuccine and a duck entree. The arancini came out in 5 mins. It tasted great but I wish it was hot. It was crispy and cheesy and paired well with the tomato sauce. The mushroom fettuccine had amazing truffle smell and tasted great. It comes with plenty of mushrooms. Great vegetarian option. The duck was a little on the dry side but the cheesy potato it came with was delicious.

We ended the dinner with profiteroles. It came with ice cream and a nice drizzle of chocolate sauce. Sadly the profiteroles felt dry and old. They comped us for dessert even though we asked them not to which was nice of them.

I would definitely come back to try some other dishes here. Great spot for dinner dates and special occasions

So happy to have an excellent Italian restaurant nearby. We ordered five dishes, all had unique, fresh and flavorful ingredients. Cocktails were refreshing and not overly boozy. Looking forward to trying more from their menu.

Had a lovely dinner. The duck confit had interesting almost 5 spice notes that I loved. Went well with a super Tuscan blend! Our server, Topher, was knowledgeable and provided a great experience.

La Traviata is so good! I’m celiac and they offer gluten free penne noodles for all the pasta dishes. Also got the Cesar Salad (no croutons) and in house gluten free cookie platter. So good

Great Italian place with some delicious pasta , good appetizers and wine selection.

Service is excellent, no complaints there.

Staff is quite helpful and attentive too.

Prices are reasonable!

Parking can be tricky in evening but not very difficult to find one! Movie house eatery parking is available too which is a garage but walkable!

Another great dinner at La Traviata! I loved the cocktail I tried: Gin Smash. We shared: mussels, beef carpaccio, & focaccia for appetizers. Entrees: spicy rigatoni, the daily pasta special, carbonara, and bolognese. Service was attentive and welcoming. The restaurant was bustling and loud.
