Drink The Wine, Eat The Pasta
$36.00 per person
Multiple dates available
Let's be honest, the best conversations have been made over Pasta & Wine. Whether its shouting from the rooftops proclaiming true love, or the obligatory full mental breakdown over a work email. Pasta and a good (or bad) bottle has always been there. Its what defines us. It's what makes us who we are. Michelangelo didn't paint the Sistine Chapel on an empty stomach. He was inspired by the mouth-watering combination of cheesy, perfectly al dente, godly bowl of pasta & a dry, peppery glass of vino. Let's pay an homage to Italy by offering your next memorable experience with us. We will be offering a Cacio e Pepe & Wine Tasting for $35. You get to choose 3, 2oz. pours off our wine list accompanied by a dish a Cacio E Pepe.

We travel to MA for hockey and have dined here often The food is delicious. Our group sampled the gnocchi, LaRosa chicken, lobster ravioli with mussels (special), and the salmon. Everything was cooked to perfection. The restaurant and service was welcoming and friendly. Would love to see a little more dessert choices, but honestly we were probably too full for dessert. One suggestion is to be sure you make reservations.

LaRosa’s dinner service was a very nice experience. Our waiter was very attentive but not overly so and the food was very good, and just what was needed on a freezing cold night. We also had coffee and dessert, and all requests were easily accommodated. We recommend if you are looking for elevated Italian food and great service!
