Diner Reviews
  • "My husband and I frequent the other DeNicola restaurants in our area (Ruvo Port Jefferson and Del Fuego) and love them, but this was our first time at La Tavola. We would definitely recommend to others and go again! The food was everything we would have expected - delicious!"

  • "Very pleasant restaurant. Variety of food choices. Wanted to get there early to have a drink at the bar but our table was ready when we arrived. Watching people go into the bar, it looked like a young crowd...bar area was noisy but it's well separated from the dining rooms."

  • "Great selection of brunch and lunch and unlimited mimosas! Service was good, not much that stood out great or bad. What did stand out was this huge sign that said to text for 10% off today and when I did! I never received the promotion. Even days later still nothing."

  • "This restaurant never disappoints. The food is always good and their is a wide variety to choose from."

  • "Three of four entrees were delivered at the same time.....the filet mignon arrived 10 minutes later & was raw on the inside...not medium. The staff seemed to be scurrying around, so much so that the manager delivered the re-cooked steak (not a new one but the cut-into-steak that had been put back on the grill) himself with apologies. Mistakes happen, but this should not have happened. The food was good, atmosphere nice. It's a shame that an incident like that spoiled the evening."

  • "Great afternoon, with friends, large party another room, service friendly but slow. Food took a long time to come out, restaurant was not filled to capacity. Brunch menu is great and would go back..."

  • "We had a table for two for dinner and from start to finish it was awesome. Great apps - great entrees and fantastic service. Ended up with a spectacular salted caramel gelato... wow. Definitely a must hit if in the area."

  • "If you don't want to eat in a rubber stamp restaurant with scripted dialogue from the servers then choose LaTavola. The service staff are informed from a personal perspective from the drinks to the desserts. The service was timely and not rushed. The specialty drink menu was long enough to give you a good selection and included a variety of choices outside of the usual margarita options. The baked clams were whole, flavorful and wonderfully seasoned with just the right amount of breadcrumbs and garlic. the sauce was a little lemony but still worth dunking your bread in. the buratta cheese and artichokes were perfectly blended and the calamari was tender. the main course of parmesan pork was a little well done but flavorful. the risotto"

  • "I took my wife to La Tavola for Valentines Day dinner. It was the third time I've been to the restaraunt but the first I have dined indoors. The interior is quite nice. Liz was an awesome waitress. The food was delicious. I had the seafood potpie and my wife had the scallops."

  • "Unsure of where to dine mid-week, we chose our reliable neighborhood gem. Always a nice meal in comfortable accomodations. The personal greeting from the owner is always a nice touch as well. Great Rewards program."

  • "My husband and I had dined here before and it was great. This time we brought our 5 yr old and 2 yr old boys. The kids were welcomed with a nice kids menu complete with a coloring area, but no crayons. Glad I brought my own! Food was delicious and our server was attentive. Only 2 issues we had were 1) we were seated in the additional room on the east side of the restaurant and it was freezing cold, and 2) we had to wait about 15-20 mins between being finished with our appetizers and receiving our entrees. Other than that it was delightful!"

  • "I love eating here. The staff is personable, the service is great! The food is very good, the menu changes with the season so items are always fresh. This restaurant is also a good value, they have a great happy hour, pre-fix menu and point system that allows you to receive discounts and build up points for gift cards. Sign up to be on their email list and stay informed of all upcoming events and specials."

  • "As always the food was very good. I was a little surprised that they ran out of Prime Rib by 9pm on NYE and the servers response was "well it 9pm and the last seating is soon". Well, it was 9pm on New Years Eve, technically there was still 3 hours til the end of the night. Seeing that much of the menu was seafood related running out of Prime rib was not good. They substituted a Sirloin which was supposed to be 20oz but looked more like 12oz and charged the same price as Prime Rib $58. The server apparently not thrilled to be working that night was not the happiest camper. It put a crimp on dinner but didn't ruin the night."

  • "We have dined at LaTavola several times and have always enjoyed the food, ambiance, and the excellent service. The price fix menus are the best. Our meals were so well prepared and delicious but we made sure we had the desert which is always incredible, we can start our diets the next day. We look forward to our next visit keep up the good work."

  • "Took my daughter for her birthday. There were four of us--food was wonderful and great appetizers to start. Waitress was friendly and helpful with the menu-- My daughter's Godmother from Florida and my good friend from Canada were there. Nice special offers as well. Would certainly recommend to all my friends an co-workers"

  • "It is a mainly Italian food restaurant with live music. The food is ok and the service is friendly."
    Dined on 12/12/2013
  • "I will not return to your restaurant or recommend it. Service was poor, calamari was like rubber and ceasar salad looked like it had been sitting around and was bland. Main course was good but our server did not even bother to offer fresh pepper or parmesan cheese (I had the rigatoni and meatballs and had to ask her for cheese). One of our guests was celebrating her birthday. When the staff was informed they brought her a coffee cup filled with whipped cream and a lit candle… just whipped cream (from a can). They had the nerve to include a 20% tip because we were a party of six. It was horrendous."

  • "The menu had a lot to offer for all. We enjoyed the butternut squash soup! Everything we had was very nice. We will go back again."

  • "My lunch companion and I had our usual fine lunch...this time I ordered a personal pizza of Mission black figs, bacon and goat cheese. It was on a thin crust, and was delicious."

  • "We have several great restaurants in Sayville, and this is one of the best. I usually go there for lunch, and have the sole as my entrée. It's served over pearl couscous and chopped vegetables, and is tasty."
    Dined on 11/16/2013
  • "We went for my husband's birthday with our kids (16, 14, 10).. The waitress came over, told us about the specials but never asked us for our drink order. The food was not spectacular, my linguine and clam sauce was too lemony and my coconut gelato was covered in a strong peach syrup that overpowered it. Our waitress was never around and we had to ask other servers for help. I asked the hostess for a candle in my husband's dessert to acknowledge his birthday. She said of course and I watched her walk away and tell our waitress. Dessert came and nothing, not even a happy birthday. We had to track down another waitress to get our check because once again our waitress was nowhere to be seen. We were very disappointed at a very high price."

  • "We were a group of 9 and had reservations for 7:30. It was very busy and I guess they were running behind, maybe over booked from restaurant week. We didn't sit down to eat until almost 9 but they apologized over and over and gave us 2 drinks each on the house, they also brought us appetizers while we waited in the bar area. Their amazing customer service will definitely make me return. I was very impressed with all of them."

  • "We had a gift card and went here for my wife's birthday. It was a Saturday night and the place was crowded. We had reservations and got seated within 5-10 minutes. The beet salad was excellent and the dinners were fine. Only downfall....we were rushed to vacate the table and our server was hard to find."
    Dined on 10/26/2013
  • "Very rarely do you find a place that gets everything right. From appetizers through dessert, every course was well executed and utterly perfect in terms of flavor and portion. Was thrilled that I wasn't rushed through the meal, but given the chance to savor it. Highly recommend!"
    Dined on 10/26/2013
  • "Made the reservation for our 1st anniversary.When we got there,we were sat at the worst table.Right by the door &my seat was so close to the table behind us I couldn't get up & if my husband moved back we would be blocking a path.Immediately I asked for another table, apparently all the other tables are reserved.Our waitress came &I told her I wasnt happy sitting there &wanted to move. The older hostess came over to again explain the other empty tables were reserved &I told her I made a reservation too &would never reserve that table.She told us she tries to avoid sitting ppl there &hates that table,I asked her why would I be ok sitting there.Think the manager heard us &we moved. If they hadn't moved us,we would've left.Left a bad taste."

  • "I had been to this restaurant a few years ago and was quite happy with it. This visit I was sorely disappointed .... The waitress was curt and unfriendly. The food was overpriced for the portions. I ordered the fig salad which was good but the fig pizza was tasteless and bland. An eight dollar share fee is outrageous especially for the prices. My friends who had pasta and a different pizza experienced the same complaints. I will definitely not be going back."
    Dined on 10/12/2013
  • "We had a great time at the restaurant. They switched up their menu which was nice to see and added se new additions such as the shrimp stuffed with crab. I also liked the wine list. We were able toget a nice bottle of wine at a decent price."

  • "Gave this restaurant a try after a matinee at the Patchogue Theatre. The menu was diverse and the entire staff was very friendly and efficient. Great ambiance and atmosphere in the dining room. The outdoor dining also looked very pleasant. One cool thing...there was a blackboard hyping their diner loyalty program. If you sign up via text as you're sitting there at the table, right on the spot you receive 10% off your check! We'll definitely go back to try out some of the other interesting looking menu items!"
