My wife and I along with some friends finally returned to the restaurant seen with our double vaccine proof in hand. It’s been a long time and it’s time to catch up and enjoy an evening out. Upon entering La Vecchia the restaurant has a...large enclosed outdoor eating area with heat fans which is open all season. Indoors the restaurant decor with high ceilings and so much space is absolutely beautiful. We were seated at the back where they have old movies playing with Italian actors like Marlon Brando, Tony Curtis and old blue eyes Frank Sinatra. I can’t say enough about this restaurant. The food and its portions are incredible. I had Pasta aglio e olio w/ Pecorino cheese to start. The pasta was cooked to perfection along with that taste of garlic just to open the appetite. As my wife’s and friends orders arrived I noticed the portion size and believe me it’s very generous. Two of my friends ordered the Sea Bass which was as big as the plate. Myself I ordered Scaloppine Diano Marina, Veal scaloppine in a mushroom cream sauce served with roasted potatoes and seasonal vegetables. Once again the portion was large and it was incredible. Our server was a delight and always made sure our wine glasses were full as well as our water glass. Time seemed to be standing still as we looked around the restaurant taking in the atmosphere. The restaurant was full and yet because of the high ceilings it was not noisy at all. After our coffee and deserts and I recommend the desert platter if you like cannolis and tiramisu I decided to see who owned the restaurant. I had the pleasure of meeting Massimo the restaurant owner. Massimo was a treat to speak with and you can instantly sense his love for his restaurant and appreciation for his staff and clientele. La Vecchias location is by the lake and the area is beautiful. We ended the night with some complementary shots that Massimo had sent over. I’m looking forward to going back and sharing the experience with many more friends. Thank you La Vecchia and we will see you soon.
