Italian
La Masseria Restaurant is inspired from ancient fortified farmhouses that in the Puglia Region of Italy are called “Masseria”. Executive Chef/Co-Owner, Pino Coladonato, grew up on a Farm in Puglia. He was forced to eat whatever was available but soon was tired of bean puree and decided to take matters into his own hands, creating new ways to use the same few ingredients. Now, with limitless ingredients to choose from, fava beans, chickpeas and lentils are still a core element in many of his entrees. Interior Designer Libby Langdon has created a warm, inviting dining atmosphere. Rustic and relaxed, with plenty of old world charm. Oversized iron sconces custom made from antique wrought iron gates punctuate the walls, and artful displays of antique farm tools mixed with various authentic Italian photographs all add to the farmhouse appeal. The wine list encompasses all regions of Italy with few of the best American and the rest of the world.

    Ordered our entrees and were told it would be about 35 minutes for the stuffed chicken. Everyone who sat down after us got their food before us. We waited 55 minutes for our entrees. I ordered a dish that had broccoli rabe in it which I know was a bitter taste, but the entire dish was bitter, no sauce on the pasta and could barely taste the sausage. Place is overrated!

    Had made reservations over a month in advance to sit downstairs. Upon arrival was seated upstairs. It was so noisy due to the ceiling-acoustics up there, we had to practically yell to each other in order to communicate - not a fun experience. Adding to that was pop music on this night, in an Italian restaurant. Meh, and I love all music, but music here is usually more appropriate for the venue. Then heard the specials and ordered one to try as an appetizer. It never came, and we were served our dinners instead. Waitstaff was very apologetic, and definitely made it right, but still, just added to the evening. The dinners that we were served did not taste good and eventually made us Ill. I’ll note that I’ve eaten here MANY times and the food is ALWAYS good, so I’m chalking this up to a once-off bad experience.

    Food was average and the service was ok. We eat out alot and haven't been here in a while. Not impressed with the food very average Italian. Lobster fettuccine was boring and lobster was rubbery with flavorless red sauce. Tasted like i made it in my kitchen with canned sauce and over cooked lobster meat! Disappointing to say the least

    The appetizers and dessert were delicious. The main course was disappointing though. The bolognese was bland and lacked flavor. It needed more spice, garlic and/or seasoning. The broccoli rabe dish was a mound of green mush. It was difficult to discern what the components were. It was our first visit and we won’t be in a rush to return.

    We're avid La Masseria patrons! Always celebrate major occasions/guests from out of town/state. Yesterday, there were 7 of us celebrating eldest grandchild going to college PLUS our wedding anniversary. So. We expected and received superior attention from our [familiar!] waiter, HECTOR cannot be faulted for 6 of us receiving our entrees at the same time, but mine didn't appear. Hector checked back TWICE. I ordered a SPECIAL rather than from the menu, so you can imagine my surprise/disappointment when what was delivered late was NOT the risotto SPECIAL but what looked/tasted like Uncle Ben's Instant white rice with the sausage/veg sauce. Would never complain/return/ruin a celebration ... but really think La Masseria should know this happened so it won't happen to anyone else. Must hesitate before returning again. Really sad about this.

    Excellent food and service. Valet parking is nice since there's not a lot of street parking available. The kitchen was efficient and the food came out looking beautiful. It was very loud in the dining room we were in. Next time I'd opt for seats @ the bar or outside so that we could have a conversation.

    La Masseria is quickly becoming one of our top choices for restaurants in East Greenwich based on their menu and wine list. My husband had a pork special, similar to a cordon bleu, while I had the veal Milanese and both entrees were excellently prepared. We also went off menu for our dessert, which our server was OK with, and ordered a delicious affogato. We had a few issues with the service bringing us the wrong drinks - twice - but these issues were remedied quickly and our server was apologetic. We also struggled a bit with the wine list solely because there are many, many options! With such an extensive wine list with a heavy lean on Italian wines, it would be nice if there was a wine expert or sommelier onsite to assist with wine selection. We were told there wasn’t anyone who could help us, so we did our best and luckily selected an excellent, Northern Italian wine.

    Unfortunately, the night I went, they were out of 4 dishes, two of which we wanted. They were also out of Cointreau at the bar. The menu selection is very basic, and expensive for what it is. I did like my veal scallopini, but sauteed brussels sprouts are a hard sell.

    I was very disappointed in my visit to La Masseria. The service was terrible. We were seated on the second floor an our waiter also had tables on the sidewalk. Waited for everything. Food delivered luke warm and one meal short. I had the Domenica. Short rib was fine, sausage ok, but the mini meatballs were buyond terrible. Food was ok, but a one star for what they charge. $15 for a Bulleit is absurd. With so many amazing italian restaurants in RI, don't waste your hard earned money here. Head to Cassarinos.

    Food was excellent. A bit expensive as veal parm at $48.50 and veal saltimbuca for $48.50. They were both delicious but that is expensive. Appetizer of burrata with tomatoes was delicious. Wine excellent. Service was not so great. Peter was our waiter. We waited a good amount of time before we were asked if we wanted a drink and he disappeared regularly. He did have a big table to tend to but we were left to wave him down multiple times. That I didn’t like. He seemed a bit overwhelmed.

    Rabbit was over cooked and dry. Veal special took what is normally a wonderful Veal Milanese and destroyed it with melted mozzarella. The short rib meatballs are usually amazing, but yesterday were average at best. Won’t be back for a while I’m afraid.

    Food was great just some minor mistakes. I was already aware that they could make a veal parm with their large veal chop on the bone but we asked the waiter if they did a different one without the bone and he said yes. I decided to order that one because I wasn’t as hungry for the large veal chop. It ended up being the same price as the larger veal chop on the bone ($50) but I was okay with that but the bus boy took away my dish when I left a relatively large piece to take home. He didn’t ask if I wanted it and when I asked another worker about it to make sure he didn’t throw it out he said they had it and the busser knew. I didn’t complain but it never came back. Don’t get me wrong, the food was great even desserts just the service was not there.
