                                        We had a wonderful dinner last night at La Vista. The restaurant was decorated for the holidays beautifully, with a roaring fire making it feel cozy and warm. The service was excellent. My water glass was never more than half empty! And the food was divine. I had the fillet of sole, pistachio crusted with lobster sauce. It was excellent. And my partner had the tableside Cacio & Pepe. It's great to have such a gem of a restaurant in our local area. I highly recommend. This was not the first time we were there and we look forward to many more perfect dinners!

                                        Salad and pasta dishes very good as well as deserts. Veal was tough and dry. Probably would not bring this up but when the chef asked me how my dinner was he did not respond well to my feedback and just told me he buys the best veal available. Might be but problem is it was overcooked. Service was okay but pleasant and welcoming. We over looked it being just okay this visit as it was very crowded and busy. Have eaten here several times. May have just been an off night and would go back and try again.

                                        The food is good, and it's served in large portions. I love the bread, along with the olives and parmesan cheese. Great wine selection.
