Food is out of this world. Staff is attentive but at a distance allowing guests to relax and enjoy.
We love it here! Bruce is an expert at wine advice. Jerry the owner/chef is quirky and fun. The food is the only Italian in the area and is fantastic! TY Jerry.
So delicious! We just enjoyed our dinner at La Cena, Jacksonville. We had the Veal Bolognese and halibut with lemon and capers. The cannolis were the best I’ve ever had and I’ve had them in the North-End Boston. (Little Italy)
Old world feel, warm environment. Delicious bread sticks and home made bread.
