We celebrated at La Pergola my mothers birthday with 50 guests. When my husband and I first met with Agron to discuss the arrangements he said "You are family". And he meant it! Throughout the meticulous preparations for the celebration Agron made sure to accommodate our every request and whim with smile and reassurance. All our requests for changes in the number of guest, menu options and other aspects of the party were met with understanding and willingness to go an extra mile. I want to especially stress Agrons generosity. Never during our work with him we felt nickled and dimed. The party was tremendous success! My mom gasped when she stepped into the restaurant decorated jubilantly, but also tastefully and stylishly (flowers were provided by a local florist Lindas Florist). The service provided by attentive staff was impeccable. Agron was constantly on the floor keeping a watchful eye on things, making sure that everything was just right. Driola was doing her magic in the kitchen creating a generous, hearty, delicious Italian feast that our guests still cannot forget. Agron and Driola! Thank you for helping us create a celebration that we will remember with warmth and happiness for years to come. Everything youve done communicated to us that you indeed treated us like family. This is so rare in todays indifferent world, and we will never forget your generosity, warmth and care.

LaPergola has the ambiance of a restaurant your grandma would like. Very formal with tableclothes, etc. I had a fennel salad for my appetizer. It was supposed to have all sorts of things on it, but it was mostly just fennel. Quite weak. Then my main dish was Pasta with Beef Tips and mushrooms. It was nice, but not great. My dessert was Tiramisu, which was OK. The service was excellent because they had a dessert that they felt was excellent, so they just brought that for free in an effort to improve our dinner. Neverthless, despite the enthusiasm of the staff, the food was just OK. Restaurant is a bit too stuff with mediocre food. Note: BYOB.

Dont miss this place. Food is amazing. The lightest, most satisfying lasagna Ive ever eaten and thats coming from one with Italian background. Sole piccata was done perfectly and so tastee with a light sauce, not the ordinary piccata you find elsewhere; the filet with melted gorgonzola, roasted red pepper, grilled Portabello with a spectacular Amaroni red wine sauce was incredibly savory and balanced. The tiramisue not to be missed. Host, chef and staff were so very gracious and accommodating. For a very special meal this is the place to dine.

La Pergola is a wonderful dining experience. Tonight I had the Fig wrapped in Prosciutto Salad which was delish. My husband had the yummy Black Ink Linguini with Shrimp that had just the right amount of spice. I also enjoyed my entree of homemade pasta, Beet Panzotti and his Pork Chop Giambotta. We shared a dessert of Tiramisu that wish I brought home because I did not want to stop eating it. The staff was very attentive and the ambiance was lovely. I am also a fan of BYOB.

Great service, good food and amazing desserts. I had fried calamari, black linguini and salmon with pasta. The waiters were attentive and on point with everything, love the service. Both main dishes were fresh and very good, not extraordinary, but made fresh so it was worth the try. The desserts were amazing. We try the titamisu and the raspberry tart and we were happy with both. I could definitely go back to it.

Literally the best Italian meal I have had in several years. The customer service is incomparable, the food is exceptional and the environment is so relaxing. If you are in the area do yourself a favor and go! You wont be even the slightest bit disappointed. Also its BYOB but no worries there is a lovely wine store right down the street.

Driola and Agron are fabulous. They were beyond attentive and accommodating for our familys function. The food: absolutely delicious. We felt like we were back in Italy (or Nonnas house) as our large family dined on perfectly prepared fish, vegetables, pasta, salads and beef fillet. A perfect afternoon. Thank you La Pergola!

What a fabulous dinner from Driola and Agron Kaloshi! From the menu selection, to the food preparation, service, comfort and spacious table seatings, this place is worth All FIVE Stars. BYOB and delicious fresh pasta and Northern Italian food. I highly recommend it. Pricey and worth it.

Really impressive. Some of the best salmon, lasagne and marinara sauce that Ive ever eaten. Superior-youll be delighted. Please note that the two star review was mine and it was an error, pressed the wrong button. This is a five star meal!

One of the good "Northern Italian cuisine" place and you can bring your own wine. This place is busy after 8pm. Pasta with seafood here is "amazing"

Atmosphere is very nice. Food is average. Best desert is the fresh fruit with their home made cream.
