  • Neighborhood gem
  • Charming
  • Great for outdoor dining
The LA CAVA concept is based on Armando's roots. Born and raised in Florence, he grew up learning that as a local, one would go dining in the little Osterias where everything was made fresh daily, prepared with basic ingredients, simple recipes, delightful flavors and lots of love, for a fantastic experience that was also "gentle" on your wallet.

No Out-Door dining. STAY SAFE!

    Servers phenomenon. Large party well taken care of. Chatted fluently in Italian with one in our party. Food was exceptional. Recommend business section and romantic section. Cocktails would be nice for those not as fond of beer and wine.

    We had a fabulous evening at LaCava! Charming restaurant with great service and the most delicious food. We started with the best bruschetta ever and light artichoke salads. Our Branzino, Bolognese, Seafood Pasta and Pork Chop entrees were melting your mouth yummy! We ended the night with Profiteroles and Star shaped Pastries. We can’t wait to go back!

    Been there twice now, loved every meal. The food is brought out hot and if you are someone who appreciates hot food then you know what I am talking about. Nothing worst than cold pasta, so thank you La Cava for knowing how to serve your food right!!!
