When you look for restaurant in the West Ashley section of Charleston, you'll find lots of places featuring barbecue and others featuring Southern specialties. My wife and I were thrilled to find La Fontana on Route 17 featuring Italian food. My wife is partial to gnocchi and she feels the gnocchi at La Fontana was as good or better than what she is served at Italian restaurants in Connecticut, where we live. I had the chef's special of Salmon, clams and mussels on fettuccine...
This was our second visit to this restaurant and the first time was much better. The AC was clearly not working so it was very hot inside. Our food was so-so, not horrible but also not great. This dinner was for my husband's birthday, and they did bring out his dessert with a candle so we could sing happy birthday, so that was great of them to do. I wish the experience had been better, but hopefully they can get their air conditioning repaired and things will be better.
The food was very good and the portions quite large. We had veal saltimbocca (also a chicken one), the special sampler with 4 entrees, and the special salmon dish with mussels and clams.
