The Thanksgiving dinner special for 49.99 was horrific. The turkey was slimy and tasteless. The yams were canned. The broccoli was tasteless. The stuffing came in a compressed cube The size of a hockey puck. The turkey soup tasted like water that had a turkey laying I'm it. The dessert was pathetically devoid of any effort...a cold piece of refrigerated pecan pie with chocolate sauce drizzled on the plate..And to top it all off. Some canned cranberry squeezed in a Dixie cup that they use for cole slaw. The staff was nice but they should stick to Italian food ..I have had better food in a homeless shelter.

It's going to get silly if I post a review every time I dine at La Catena because my reviews will always be the same.... The service is wonderful, the food is fantastic! From the moment you walk in the door you are treated like you belong! The wine selection is great, and I had a cocktail which was delicious!! I will say that my Chicken Calabrese was so tender that it was an absolute joy to eat! As an appetizer we ordered the Avocado Salad with palm hearts and I can't wait to go back and order it again!!! We're already planning for the whole family to go back around the holidays when everyone is home!!

La Catena continues to be one of the best restaurants in lower Westchester. Not only is the food excellent, but the service and ambiance cannot be beat. The tables are spread out, keeping the noise level down. And unlike many other popular restaurants, you never feel squished. Additionally, the chef will prepare any dish you like, even if not on the menu as long as they have the ingredients. As a bonus, there’s plenty of free parking right next to the restaurant.

Haven’t had a bad meal yet. The calamari is the most tender it literally melts in your mouth. I don’t know what they do to them but the calamari’s marinara is delicious.
