    Although it took awhile to get menus, the food was delicious! Expect a wait time as you are seated and as they make the food, but they do bring garlic bread! Menu had many Italian words and I had to google a couple to figure out what they were if they didnt have a full description 🙃. It was a little loud but understandable since almost all the tables were full. Wouldn't recommend for kids as this appears to be a little more high-end, has a slightly limited menu, and the menu does not have pictures. Overall a pretty decent experience. (Pictured: Fettuccine Alfredo, stuffed shells with spinach and ricotta cheese, garlic bread, and a banana cheesecake with chocolate topping.)

    Excellent staff and food. We had a party of 10 and everyone loved the food and the atmosphere of the restaurant. We were in the Scranton area for a graduation celebration and this place was top notch. I did make a reservation and got a private room. Everything was ready when we arrived, the staff was very attentive to some of my guests that had food allergies. The food came out fast and was delicious. We are from the NY and NJ area and I would put their food up right up there. Try it out we had a nice experience. Will definitely be going back.

    Google keeps asking me for an updated review so here it goes: food is always excellent, drinks are always excellent, and staff is always more than willing to accommodate anything. Patio is beautiful at night. They have real grape vines growing along the fence even. Seems like such a minor thing, but it really shows attention to detail.

    I have been waiting quite some time to eat here. Needless to say I was terribly disappointed!!! Note to LA Cucina have prices listed for your Specials!!! What I paid for sausage, pasta and broccoli (that past was gross) i would have added asparagus...was 21.00!!! That was a sticker shock for sure! Would I return...? The jury is out on that one!

    Everything was very good , not great. Bar uses pre-measured carafes for wine pours…too corporate. Garlic bread a great touch. Would probably return although not on my A-list. Worth a try.

    I was in the mood for Italian and tried this restaurant. When I arrived I parked in the private lot. I walked into the bakery area, and the nice man directed me. I sat at the bar and a nice lady gave me the menu. The place was very nice. Alan was the bartender, and I started with the lemon drop martini, and it was super sweet, so after that, I had the pinot nior. I had the special stuffed salmon. When it came out, it looked good. I dug in, and it was very tasty. The bill was super affordable! All in all I had a good experience.

    Filet of Sole Francese is absolute heaven!! They kill every fish dish perfectly!! Salad is beautiful and any dressing or side is fantastic Take out is a breeze

    I’ve only had to-go, but the penne with vodka is the best I’ve ever had. The noodles are crispy but in a good way, and the sauce isn’t too overpowering. Also love the side salad. I look forward to eating in some day.

    Love the place BUT numerous times when I call on a Friday or Saturday morning for a reservation they are full and no spots for 5 or 6 pm???

    La Cucina catered my wife's and I wedding 9 years ago and we go there every year for our anniversary. The food is fantastic. Very tasty. The staff is very courteous and the outdoor seating was perfect for a summers evening. Highly recommend!

    This is not the first time for me at this restaurant. I have not been here since before the pandemic. The food is consistently good.

    Advertise that hours are open until 9pm yet our party arrived at 7:55 pm & were told the kitchen was closed . No problem, we took our $200 of business to Casabella . They were more than glad to seat us & gave 5star food & service. Don’t advertise fake hours LA cachina !! Not the first time this has happened but I ensure you its the last time you get my family's business!!

    Went out with the Ladies for one of our Birthday dinners. Food was Excellant and Joe was a fantastic server. We (7of us) had a variety of dinners, Cannelton, Manicotti, Broiled filet of Sole, Broiled Salmon and Shrimp Scampi. Sorry I have to remember to take pictures. No one was disappointed. Only 3 of us got specialty Drinks, I had a French Martin and it was fabulous. 2 of the Ladies tried their Creamsicle Martini and they loved it. All n All it was a Great time and Joe was Great. Prices were very reasonable.

    the food here is amazing. fantastic. out of this world, even. but good luck ever tasting it 😏 if you don't have reservations, or call within the two hour takeout window, they treat you like you're diseased. makes me SO sad because the risotto is to die for!
