I always just was wonderful. Very attention I know for suggestions. Our food was so delicious.

The food here was excellent—fresh, well-prepared, and flavorful. The chef clearly knows what they’re doing, and I would have loved to come back just for the dishes.

Unfortunately, the restaurant’s policies ruined the experience. They charge a $25 surcharge if you don’t order an entrée, even if you’re ordering multiple appetizers or other items. Added to that is a surcharge for credit card use—an increasingly unpopular tactic in an industry built on welcoming guests. I understand that restaurants have costs to cover, but penalizing customers for choosing what they want to eat feels unreasonable. Dining out should be about enjoying the food and experience, not navigating a list of restrictions and extra fees.

Because of these policies, I won’t be returning. I’d rather spend my money somewhere that values customer choice as much as the quality of the food.

Reservation was for 7 p.m. Waited more than 30 minutes as were others. There was a wedding gathering that took up a good portion of the restaurant. If that was the case, those making reservations should have been given a heads up. Instead, waiting outside in the rain was the deal. This is a common issue at this restaurant. They need to do a better job taking reservations and communicating with patrons. You shouldn't have to wait more than 30 minutes for a reservation; meanwhile they have a policy of only holding reservations for 10 minutes. What an irony...

Great food - mussels, Caesar Salad and Shrimp/Crab Raviolis. My friend had a filet, that looked amazing. They are a little short of staff, but staff they have are excellent.

Very underwhelming taste and overpriced. I ordered a very large takeout order and paid a good amount but didn’t find it particularly enjoyable. It might be a different experience eating in house but I probably won’t come back to find out.

Asked about a dish and was told it was a scratch kitchen, cook to order. Informed waitress I was allergic to shell fish. Was told no problem my dinner request would and could be cooked with the crab meat! Portion was much smaller than usual, no crab meat! However, was charged as if the crab meat was on the meal. Have been to restaurant a number of times over the years and frustrated over this new practice!!

Eating at La Fontana Coast in SIC has become a part of our September shore vacation tradition. It's one of the few places where I can get a good cacio e pepe, my favorite dish.

Second time at LaFontana Coast. Excellent food and service. BYOB. Pollo Milanese was delicious. Portions are large. Highly recommend.

Have eaten at this restaurant many times. Food is delicious, service is great, staff are pleasant and responsive.

I always order the pasta with crab; however, this time, it was different, and not in a good way. It had tons of capers and grated cheese. Everyone knows that you don't put cheese in a fish dish. The capers were not good! I hope that this dish was made by a temporary chef bc it was after Labor Day.

Went Friday night of Labor Day weekend which was our first time. We did not have reservations but were able to get a table for 3 right away! It was somewhat early which was a good thing because the joint got packed after time! Mario but with a D was our server and did a great job!! The food…Amazing!! Not sure about the reviews that say small portions, I was plenty full when we left! If you’re looking for a ton of cheap food go to Golden Corral!! I had the chicken parm with rigatoni which was excellent! My daughter and wife loved their dinner as well! Great French fries!!! My only complaint was the wood chairs!! Slightly uncomfortable after some time and I was afraid that if I ripped one the picture on the wall may have fallen!! The chair being uncomfortable could be just me due to pulling a hammie in a dance off at Aston Barnaby’s back in the day!! Thanks for the memories!!

Always a reliable, consistent favorite - and we dine out plenty! Daria always remembers us which makes us feel like home. Regardless of how busy they get, you're always greeted with a smile. A must-have is their Bronzino. The best I've had in the region. I would argue it's the best bang for the buck anywhere at the shore.
