    A great experience! Thank you for making our evening amazing! We are from out of town, and this was our first time at La Verona. All of the reviews I read were spot on. The staff, especially Lalo, were warm and sincere and made us feel welcome and at home. The meals were spectacular! We started with Calamari, Grilled Octopus and Frogs legs all fresh and delectable. The homemade pasta in our entrees is King. I had the special; seafood over noodles made with local mushrooms. Just perfect. I tried some of my daughter's dish of Gnocchi and I now know what I will be ordering when we return. It's cool when you find a place like La Verona to recommend to friends and family when visiting the Kennett Square area.

    This was our first time at Letty’s Tavern. We had been to Longwood Gardens, in the pouring rain. We showed up to Letty’s early, the gal at the reception desk was so accommodating, got us a table. The server was excellent, I could not decide what wine I wanted; he graciously brought me two tastes, so I could decide. We had the cheese tray; it was delicious. My husband had the short rib; it melted in his mouth. I had the fish and chips. The fish was delicious and was just enough, sometimes places give you this ridiculously large piece that you can’t finish; the fries were double fried; excellent. We finished this meal by sharing a piece of tiramisu. Probably one of the best pieces of tiramisu I have tasted. A wonderful end to a very wet day! Will be making a trek back to Kennet Square just to go to Letty’s !
