Decent food, Great atmosphere

My wife and I went to La Cantina on the bottom floor of the Italian Village Saturday. It is a really nice restaurant with good service. The food, however, lacked seasoning. I love Italian food and I love seafood, so I thought this would be the best of both worlds. I ordered the Tortelli con Frutta del Mare (Seafood filled pasta, shrimp, scallops, and tomoto cream sauce). It was decent, I finished it, but I probably wouldn't go back. It was just average, and it really needed pepper and salt and Italian seasoning. My wife had the Cannelloni, and again it was just average.

A great place for food, family and friends!

I can still remember back in 1984 when I was introduced to the joys of Chicken Vesuvio. A simple yet delightful dish. My wife and I have tried to copy it for years but ours is never as good as what we get at the Village (it would help if they would give us the recipe - hint). But that is only one of many excellent selections to be found. The wine selections are among the best we have seen. We have also enjoyed Vivere and la Cantina. The food has always been excellent and the staff top notch. It is an excellent place to bring family, friends and business associates. I cannot recall ever having a bad meal or receiving poor service. I hope all three restaurants are with us another 80+ years!

Food & Atmosphere AAAWWWSOME!!!!!

My wife and I got engaged here in the "village" upstairs. The waiter served her ring in the best canolli we've ever shared. From the appetizers to the dessert, I can't say e'nuf. I haven't had Italian food like this since my Grandma served it. (She's a native Napalan) The wine list is one of the best I've seen. We recommend this restaurant to all our friends.

My only wish is for a bigger stomach
