For years, Paolo and Teresa Gaspari honored their Italian roots by bringing people together to enjoy good food, great wine and the company of friends and family. In 2019, John Ekizian took the reins and remains excited to continue the tradition of La Famiglia. The simplicity and perfection of fresh ingredients is the root of every meal we prepare here at La Famiglia, and all of our dishes pair beautifully with our vast collection of fine wines. From our pasta to our sauces, even to our freshly-squeezed lemon juice, we start from scratch. One bite, and you’ll understand the difference that handmade truly makes. Our courteous and attentive wait staff is ready to welcome you. Whether you’re joining us for a special night out, a family gathering or simply because you’re craving a delicious Italian meal, we hope you’ll spend it with La Famiglia.

We’ve have been here many times before and have always enjoyed the food . Tonight we celebrated Valentines with a delicious dinner. The waittress and service personnel were attentive and friendly. Our dinner was served hot and was delicious. However my only draw back was many of the other guests that were also having dinner were dressed in hoodies, baseball hats and even wearing beenies. Call me old fashion but what happen to dressing appropriately in a very nice restaurant? Is this now the norm.

The evening started out well enough as we worked through salads and entrees, but as soon as 8:30PM struck (closing time) our waitress began rushing us out the door. Despite the great food, we'll not return.
