    The entire experience was wonderful. The staff were professional, seated us quickly in the patio area, and the weather was just perfect for patio dining. Server was very friendly and helpful and took the time to provide a hand-written list of gluten-free options. The food was delicious. I ordered the salmon ai Ferri--it was very tender and the rosemary potatoes were outstanding. My mom ordered the veal parmigiana and my husband ordered the chicken parmigiana, and calamari for appetizers--they loved everything. I also ordered the pineapple sangria which was delicious and better than I expected. We will be regulars from now on.

    What can I say about La Vela other than absolutely great food, awesome service and attention to detail. We had a great time here and the best restaurant we have been to in this area.

    This is the second time we have been to La vela and it did not disappoint, actually seems to just get better. Staff is extremely friendly and very attentive. The food is phenomenal, beautifully plated, flavors are perfect. Definitely nothing comparable in our area to them. My filet was cooked to perfection and the lobster ravioli was exquisite. We will definitely be back.
