What a great spot! Hawaiian Pizza, Duck & Shrimp Scampi Special were spot on 🙌

Ehh! What kind of Italian restaurant doesn’t offer bread?! Pasta dishes came out so watery I thought they brought out a soup by accident. Had an old fashioned cocktail that tasted like chewed up cherries with watery bourbon. Had to get my own silverware. I wasnt even offered dessert probably because it’s a list of the disgusting mash of ingredients. Terrible. Too bad because the place is super cool inside. Feel ripped off! Got me on this one. Not again.

Had a good meal here, liked the menu and will explore more in the future. Loud love music took away from the dinner conversation a bit.

My friend and I went to La Porta today for dinner. Place is old, dark, and rustic with a nice bar on the side. We ordered the calamari and pei mussels as appetizers. The calamari although beautifully fried, was on the salty side. The pei mussles were EXCELLENT so highly recommended. For dinner we ordered two of their pasta dishes. The linguini with shrimp was OK; the braised ribs were disappointing. Definitely the dinner dishes were not up to what we expected and for the price we could have gotten much better food at a different Italian restaurant. It was funny that we asked for rolls and bread to accompany dinner. They told us they DO NOT offer bread. This was our first time and more than likely our last one. Besides, they add a surcharge when using a credit card so NO thank you. So after $143 plus tip next time my friend and I will go to Alfredo’s in Newtown Square.

Love this spot! The food is always super fresh and tasty—especially the wood-fired pizza and pasta. Chill vibe, great service, and everyone’s really nice. One of my favorite places to grab dinner in Media!

Went in last night for the first time with the new chef. Amazing! Menu us updated, and food is maybe even better. Same excellent service and welcoming environment. Glad one of our favorites is better than ever.

So the only reason i am giving this place a two star is cause me and my family went here last summer for my dad birthday. We order two pizza one pepperoni and one cheese and we recived two magierita pizza one plain and one with pepporini on it. The server then told us that was normal pizza for the day. But then the table next to us got normal pizza just cheese and pepporni. Why lie about serving us the wrong pizza lol. I knew this happen a long time ago and i always think about it.

Bartender was super nice. The place did kind of smell though and we asked for the check 3 times.
Our server was very attentive. The food was a tad salty. The bar area is super narrow and difficult to get through to the rest room and i would have felt claustrephobic in there. And the restroom in the main dining area was behind another table so thats not good if you need to go quickly. .

We had an excellent meal last night and the hostess seated us promptly (without a Rez) busboy and waitress were tremendous! The salmon salad was great but the ribeye steak with Brussel Sprouts and mushroom cream sauce was superb! I wish I captured a picture but forgot.

We used to go for dinner often and the food was historically great except for the last two weeks - the Spaghetti was watery and lacking any flavor. Our whole table ordered it; you couldn't even taste any tomato flavor. It looked and tasted like pink water. The pasta was so mushy and over-cooked it had the texture of baby food. The credit card fee is also also RIDICULOUS; passing that on to customers when the cost is already inflated feels greedy. Give the option of using a debit card please; no one has $150 cash in their pocket. We were loyal customers until all that.

Great food and service. But pretty loud as it is a small dining area.
What a great spot!
