Made from scratch with imported ingredients, aged wines, and generations of family recipes passed down through our kitchen.
La Tavola was born in 1998 when Chef Marco Rossi left Milan with a suitcase full of recipes and a dream of bringing true Italian flavors to the city. What started as a small trattoria with 12 tables has grown into one of the most beloved dining destinations downtown.
Every dish is made in-house — our pasta is rolled fresh each morning, our sauces simmer for hours, and our bread comes out of the wood-fired oven just before service. We source our olive oil, cheeses, and charcuterie directly from small producers in Tuscany and Campania.
Every pasta, sauce, and dessert is handmade daily in our kitchen using traditional Italian techniques.
Over 80 Italian labels selected personally by our sommelier, with perfect pairings for every dish.
Warm candlelight, soft music, and attentive service — perfect for date nights, anniversaries, and celebrations.
"The best Italian food outside of Italy, full stop. The tagliatelle Bolognese is unlike anything else in this city. We come every month."
"We celebrated our anniversary here and it was magical. The staff remembered our names from our last visit. That kind of attention is rare."
"The osso buco was melt-in-your-mouth incredible. And the wine list! Our sommelier found us a bottle we'd never tried that was perfect."
