***BEWARE*** They close some days hours earlier than advertised. We we’re looking forward to trying this place and arrived 55mins before advertised close time only to find they were already closed! When I called they stated that they haven’t updated their hours since covid.Hopefully this saves someone the disappointment we experienced.

Not what I would call an Italian restaurant. More like a Washington version. Appetizer was very good; down hill from there. After a half hour they told us they were out of scallops which was what my wife had ordered and so she ordered chicken. 20 minutes later then served the chicken and my rack of lamb. The chicken was good my rack of lamb was charcoaled and dry. I asked for some sort of sauce which ended up being some sort of salsa. I didn't eat half of the lamb but what do you want for $150?

What an awesome gem! The food is beyond delicious; artistically presented too! Quaint, cozy, romantic atmosphere and music. With a heartworming fireplace. All in the cute downtown Manette. Don't miss it, its sure to become your favorite!

We have been here a few times now and we are always so impressed! Service is wonderful and the food is delicious.
Had the most amazing, cozy dinner at La Fermata. Hubby is VERY picky about his steak. He said it was one of the best steaks of his life. 20/10....perfect for date night!

Great food for a mid to fine dining experience. Got the Pappardelle Bolognese Beef.Service was good for the meal and prep although we were sat right next to the front door which was very drafty with the temperatures in the 30's. There was no heater near us as well.Otherwise, the interior was charming and not too loud. Everything else was really great.I will recommend this restaurant but also suggest making a reservation in advance so you get a better seat.

OMG - what a quaint, romantic place to dine. The food is prepared to perfection. The dipping sauce with the herbs is a perfect compliment to the crusty bread. The menu is limited but covers most pallets. The apricot sauce for the duck was delightful as was our entire dining experience including the very personable table service . We loved the soft music, great wine selection and cannot wait to return . We highly recommend this restaurant and strongly suggest reservations .

With an amazing atmosphere and great service, this is one of my favorite places to eat in the area. The prawn appetizers were so delicious. The dressing on the salad was so creamy and had a great taste. The duck was cooked to perfection, and even the side veggies were awesome.
Arrived 50 minutes before closing and was turned away. Second time showing up well within business hours and not being open. Drove an hour to get there. Never

Nicest restaurant in the area with good high quality food, but a limited menu. The duck, pork and ribeye are always outstanding. Only the name is Italian, though, so don’t expect an Italian menu. Desserts are always very good, but service totally depends on the day’s staffing.
