    First time dining here - wanted to find an Italian restaurant easily accessible for everyone attending a birthday dinner. Love that they have free valet. Very quaint restaurant, food was very good . Highly recommend the chicken parm and lobster ravioli.

    Always a delicious meal, and our waiter Manny was so kind and efficient. He brought my cannoli out with a candle for my birthday.

    Everything was wonderful. The service was top notch and the food was delicious. It was just very expensive - that would be the only thing keeping us from returning.

    Hadn’t been here in many years and was delighted with the redecorating. The food was top notch as was Ilvania, our server. We live in the city but we will definitely be back. I’m putting La Collina on my list of favorite restaurants.

    We had a wonderful family luncheon to celebrate our son’s college graduation. We had come from out of town and had never been to La Collina before. The food was delicious and the service was top-notch. La Collina really made the day special!
