I believe I just found the best seafood, bar none, in CT. Steaks and wine were delicious. Had an amazing night where everything was perfect. Will definitely go back soon.

The appetizers were good with large portions. The entrees, on the other hand, were mediocre at best. The atmosphere on the outside deck was okay, but the bees and flies were annoying, and the staff didn’t seem to care. My previous two visits were great, but I have no intention of returning. 3 cocktails, 2 appetizers, and 2 entrees. 162$ not counting the tip. I expect a better experience for that kind of money.

First time here in a couple of years. We were a party of 5. Firstly our waiter was fantastic. No complaints about the pasta dishes. I received overdone pork chops. Sent those away and decided on just a wedge salad. Served round side down. Impossible to cut. Undressed it. Flipped it over only to remove browning lettuce leaves. Something happened here…

I have been dined here several times but had not had the pleasure since before Covid… not because of Covid, just coincidental timing between visits. On my most recent visit, I was just amazed by the beautiful addition of the outdoor dining deck with permanent ceiling and flexible side curtains and its own bar built out of the main structure. Very impressive and meticulously designed and built. Five plus stars for this creation!

Indulging in an enchanting experience at La Foresta was nothing short of extraordinary. From the moment I stepped foot into this haven of culinary and libation delights, I was captivated by the sheer magnificence of it all.

We sat in a covered deck outside. The food was very good. The service was also very good. We were celebrating a birthday. They did very well. I recommend this to anyone without kids.

Went on an early week night to take a friend out who has been going through concussion protocol. I asked for a quiet protected table and our waitress was kind, accommodating and sweet.Thank you Jay! You made our experience perfect! Oh by the way, the food was fantastic!

Everything tasted great, but it still felt overpriced for the portion size and ambiance. They seemed like they were seating everyone outside on the deck instead of inside. There were a lot of flies buzzing around on the deck which was really annoying and i wished we were inside in the beautiful interior. The service was super fast, but didn’t feel very personal and the servers didn’t seem very knowledgeable about the drink menu and stuff. Minor gripe.
