• Friendly, great food, great experience.
• Not one blessed thing.

“La Cucina is the best spot in town. Great pizza that blows away the cardboard pretenders that usually pass as pizza in this area. Pizza, pasta, or something more. Service has always been better than excellent.”

• Family owned business where they care about the customer.
• Nothing.

“I have eaten at La Cucina a dozen times and have yet to have a bad meal. The food comes out hot, the pasta is fresh, and the sauces are better than most Italian restaurants Ive been to. The portions are so ample that I can never finish. Turn over in waitresses seems on the high side but even new servers are up to speed with the specials. My only criticism is the bar is not well stocked with a large selection of wines. I would highly recommend this restaurant to singles, couples, and families with children (although it could be a bit pricey for kids).”

• We did not get food poisoning.
• If service was any worse, we had have had to cook it ourselves.

“First and last time we were there, with my wife and two sons, we appeared to be a bother to the young man who supposedly waited on us. It seemed more like we were "waiting" on him, though. Mostly, we were waiting on him to stop talking to his buddies long enough to see that we were there, again we waited on him to finally come over, and after he "quickly" took our order, we waited on him to come back, which he seldom did, and hesitantly at that. We never complained once, having made up our minds as we began our first course, that we had indeed, made a terrible mistake. Everything brought to our table was average at best, and not inexpensive. Of course, with such poor attention, it does not bode well for anything else, but none of the "men" behind the counter took exception to this man's long detailed conversations with other employees, ignoring almost totally his guests. First time, last time.”
