1/2 price pizza Monday! An excellent deal. Our group had various pizzas, none of which disappointed. Very nice wood-fired oven inside. We sat outside in a courtyard with patio umbrellas and music, with the train station in view (alittle noise when a train passes, but they go by quick), a statue with a water element; made for a really nice experience. Host and waiter very kind and accommodating.

Fortunately we live in an area where we can expect very good Italian food. Unfortunately Cotta is just at or slightly below average. During our first and only visit we knew we were in trouble when the calamari arrived, wet and soggy. I’d try this place again, but my family won’t come with me.

I had a disappointing experience at Cotto a Lenga recently that I feel compelled to share. During my visit, a member mishandled a situation with a loyal customer when she asked give a taller “pour”. Maybe I’m wrong for asking that but when I come weekly, as a business owner, I treat my regulars well. She then proceeded to go to multiple staff members and each one of them poured out of the back to take the opportunity to make sure they took a look at me. I confronted the waitress, Payton, and she lied to me saying she didn’t talk to anyone or a manager. I called today before I wanted to make a negative post and the staff member she talked to behind the bar was the “manager” on staff accused me of being intoxicated — an accusation that was not only completely false but also handled in a way that left me feeling disrespected. I suffer with extreme migraines. She also told me that this was a week ago and to get over it. She interrupted me and she told me that I was being rude as she needed to wait on customers.

As someone who values professionalism and integrity, I believe there are appropriate ways to address any concerns with guests. Making baseless assumptions and confronting patrons without cause is not one of them.

I hope this feedback encourages the management to revisit how their staff is trained to interact with guests and handle situations with care, discernment, and respect.

I found this place about a month ago, even though I lived in Geneva for two years and somehow missed it. I found the food EXCELLENT. I've since visited four more times and every time enjoyed it, especially the outdoor patio. It has a great ambiance for date night or work lunches. The menu has a ton to offer. The pizza is probably the best on the menu, but I love the pasta dishes, even stuffed pasta, and the apps like calamari and fried goat cheese are my favorites. The Caprese was also very fresh, but I heard some people thought the tomatoes weren't ripe enough. I thought they were totally fine though. The only thing is the service can sometimes be a little slow, but they've brought on some great additional staff it seems that were very attentive.

What can I say it’s a suburban Italian restaurant, staff were really nice, food was solid! Plates were sized very nicely.

We really enjoyed the food and our server was charismatic and nice. We ordered the classic bruschetta, ricotta bruschetta, steak sandwich, and chicken parmesan sandwich.

Food was good. Service was average. Extremely difficult to converse as table next to us was VERY loud. Couldn’t wait to get out of there. Were looking forward to a nice relaxing dinner and it was anything but.

Cotto A Legna is hands down one of my favorite restaurants! The atmosphere is casual and inviting, making it a perfect spot for anything from a low-key dinner to a casual celebration. The food is absolutely outstanding—I’ve tried many dishes on the menu, and I’ve loved every single one. Honestly, my biggest "problem" is deciding what to order because everything is so delicious!

The service has always been excellent, with friendly and attentive staff who make the experience even better. A small but noteworthy bonus is the parking lot in the back, which makes getting in and out so convenient. Highly Recommend!

Very slow service, my overpriced burger tasted like waterlogged mush, terrible bathroom situation with only one toilet for each gender, too close to the railroad. First and only time I will ever go there. 👎👎👎

Fantastic crispy burrata, best ever. And the delicious duck pizza, slices of duck and bufala mozzarella. The chef is a genius.
