Came to celebrate with friends and had the most delicious and rich risotto here. The lemon tart and tiramisu were also really good. Will come back for special occasions!

Was served by a female waitress who pressured us to buy alcohol and order the more expensive variations of food multiple times throughout our meal. We understand that alcohol is a huge source of revenue for restaurants but it's unacceptable to be pressured into drinking alcohol. The food was great but unfortunately we felt really uncomfortable and that overshadowed the food.

I went in with high expectations and left underwhelmed. Everything was good, but not great. I would eat here again... but I was not blown away and although Columbus is lacking when it comes to great Italian restaurants, I do think there are better options.

Favorite italian in Columbus! The pizzas are giant and fabulous as well as allll of the pastas! Their’s a fixed menu and then a daily rotational menu, the quality of ingredients is superb. It’s clearly made fresh, everyone is so kind, and it’s such a homey atmosphere, I’ve had lots of family get togethers here! Currently love the vegetariano pizza, gnocchi pomodoro, and daily risotto! I’m not one for dessert, but you can’t go wrong with any of them (the chocolate cake and lemon tart are my fav).

La Tavola remains a fantastic restaurant with outstanding food and service for many years. If Lobster Ravioli is on the menu, ORDER IT. One of the best dishes I have ever had anywhere in the city.

Oh my gosh what isn’t there to say about this place. One of the best restaurants in Columbus, if any cuisine. Cozy feel, excellent food, amazing service, great wine list, incredible specials, I can go on. Their homemade pastas are incredible and always well seasoned or sauced. Great appetizer and bread options. Simple but very well done classics like chicken parmesan and pizzas. We’ve been coming here for years and always leave smiling with full bellies and happy hearts feeling like we just filled our souls at the same time. Cannot recommend this place enough and will continue to sing its praises to anyone who will listen.

One of the best Italian restaurants that I have been to in a while! As soon as I walked in.. the smells that hit my nose let me know IMMEDIATELY that I was going to enjoy this place. Best small business/ restaurant for Italian! ECCELLENTE!!!!!

I’ve been coming here since 2018 and they have been one of the most consistent restaurants I go to. La Tavola is best when you are adventurous and try a new thing! They have so many specials it’s great to try some.

Went here for NYE. It was a bit strange. We were seated but weren’t given menus. We waited a bit and finally asked for them. The menu wasn’t very balanced. My friend is a vegetarian and it was difficult to find something she could eat. Two different types of gnocchi. One with just butter?? No vegetables or anything. The chicken parm is decent. The house salad was amazing. The chocolate torte was very dry and underwhelming. The tiramisu was really good and a generous serving. I don’t know that I’ll go back. It’s very expensive and I wasn’t real impressed.Vegetarian options: Not many

Everything about this restaurant is ok. The menu is limited which is nice there are some dishes that stood out but the desert was a great disappointment.We tried the bolognese, the pork belly ragu, a pizza, the gnocchi pomodoro and current special which was a lamb sausage and apple risotto. The fonduta was the best part of the meal even though it was hard to find the ndjua in it the rest food was not too bad (the pizza is not neopolitan style as some reviews would suggest) This was the second time I went and it was better than the first but I am not sure I would revisit.
