Price: Expensive
• Italian • Collingswood
Booked 11 times today
Come enjoy old Italian-style dishes, known today as Italian comfort food, at The Kitchen Consigliere as executive chef Angelo Lutz preserves the heritage of real, authentic homestyle cooking. His spot is an informal BYOB Italian eatery with an emphasis on the peasant dishes found in traditional homestyle Italian cooking. Influenced by the dishes he ate as a youngster, Angelo's cooking style stems from teaching and recipes taught by his mother and grandmother. The atmosphere is informal and the food and menus change often, allowing The Kitchen Consigliere to be a cozy, quaint and not over-the-top eatery for the entire family. And good food isn't the only reason to eat at the café. The real adventure is meeting with the real kitchen consigliere; you will come for the food but stick around for the conversation.

    Shrimp burrito was delicious, served with guacamole and side salad. I would have preferred rice instead of guacamole (not a huge guac fan) but looked homemade and wasn’t bad. Friend had a baracoa (I think that’s it) burrito. She said it was delicious. My husband had beef enchiladas with mole and he said best enchiladas he’s had. Friend’s hubby had enchiladas with black bean sauce and enjoyed it as well. It should be noted that they make margarita base - just bring your own tequila! We ended with tres leches - friends enjoyed. We shared strawberry banana in pajamas - strawberry and banana wrapped like burrito, fried and rolled in brown sugar and served with a scoop of ice cream. Sooooo good!! Both desserts portioned to be able to share! I think this is our new go to Mexican place.

    La Catrina is one of our favorite places to go in Collingswood. We always have a delicious meal and it is generally quiet and easy to walk into last minute. The nachos with slow cooked pork is our go to appetizer. Wait staff is great. Add it to your list to try if you haven't!
