It is every bit as expected -- great food, wonderful staff and feels like a wonderful neighborhood restaurant.

Just picked up my order with a welcoming smile. The food quality is phenomenal. Thank you

Good autentic italian food .

Overall, a fine experience. Excellent food and service. Smart move by Danny to inform us of menu and wine list changes in advance. That simple touch means a great deal. Pastas are excellent. Lean towards the daily specials!

You can't go wrong at this wonderful neighborhood restaurant. The friendly atmosphere with excellent food choices is like “comming home” if your Mom is from Sicily and the best cook on the Island. we have to return at least once a month and more often, the better!

Hands down, one of my top 2 Italian restaurants ever....their Gnocchi tastes like melt-in-mouth pillows from heaven....and their desserts are exceptional too.....was well worth the drive and we will definitely be back ..for more Gnocchi!

Highly recommend for its true Italian food! I lived in Italy for 18 years, so I'm admittedly picky when it comes to Italian food—and I couldn't be happier to have discovered La Stanza, which impresses with both its authenticity and range. The regular menu offers a broad selection of regional Italian classics, from handmade Carbonara to Pasta alle Vongole, each crafted with that rustic, hearty simplicity and flavor balance Italians are known for and the extra oomph Sicilian-style cooking favors. The specials menu was nearly as extensive as the regular one, and I couldn't resist the Branzino al Limone: sea bass finished in a light, zesty lemon sauce with just a hint of capers. I rarely order Branzino in the U.S. because it so often disappoints—but based on previous visits, I trusted the kitchen. Result: hands down one of the best Branzino al Limone I've had—anywhere, including Italy. At the risk of making it even harder to get a table... go!

My favorite pasta place in the Bay Area! Fiocchetti Aurora is phenomenal and I always love their specials (the lasagna is amazing). The service is also great!

Again, another delicious meal last night with our fabulous waiter, Danny!!! Everything was perfect!

The vibe and the food was awesome! However server Marccello made the whole meal and experience even better. Thank you again for a great experience. They make a really good team all of them!

We went to check out this restaurant late February. What a great surprise! Their pastas are excellent, the Gnocchi in a Gorgonzola cream sauce - perfection! We also enjoyed the rigatoni and ravioli. They make a great Caesar with a good ratio of greens to dressing. We went back weekly taking in various family and friends. We were so happy with the food and service that we held a bridal shower there for 34 people. The chef, Danny, and his team did such a great job. Their pastas and service was outstanding. The three entrees we offered were hot and perfectly cooked. Well done putting that many dishes out. They are easy to work with and helped us create a memorable event.

We truly love eating here whether it is inside or outside. The food is excellent and is always of a high quality. We enjoy the friendly service and are always well taken care of. We always keep going back :)

We've been going to La Stanza for years. The best Italian food in Menlo Park. Warm comfortable atmosphere and excellent service.
