Best Restaurants for Business Meals in Chestnut Hill

Delicious lunch of Nicoise Salad, chicken liver parfait , mushroom soup, and profiteroles. Lunch delicious as usual. Service very good. Bar seats full at 2pm, reservations recommended. Take out order of cheeseburger was missing the caramelized onions. Tomato and lettuce are not automatically included on burger and must be requested if desired.

Wow! I walked past this resto so many times, and, from the outside, it looked average. However, as soon as you walk in the front door, you know that you are some place special. The ambience is great, but, more importantly, the food was exquisite. Yes, it was expensive, but the experience was worth every penny. To start, we ordered rolls with chive butter, and, for an entrée, had pumpkin ravioli with walnuts, apples, onions, and ricotta cheese--yum! The food was so good that we decided to order dessert, an apple tartan which was equally delicious. On top of that, our server was excellent, very helpful, and friendly. You have to try this place at least once!

We had a thoroughly enjoyable, delicious meal at La Collina from start to finish and would highly recommend. Service was exceptional and each one of us had a great dinner. The pasta special was outstanding (do not hesitate), but I have to admit that the gorgonzola filled gnocchi enjoyed by my GF were pretty amazing as well. Her husband had no difficulty devouring his entire chicken park and my husband was delighted that he could order and enjoy veal parm not included on the menu. While I do not usually order my own dessert, I just could not pass up the Lemon Gelato with Limoncello and I have to say that it was positively amazing. I cannot recall having such an unusual and memorable dessert and only wish I could re-create it. It was served in a champagne flute and I refused to leave a trace behind. Our server was extremely professional and very pleasant. It was a Tuesday evening and the restaurant was pleasantly quiet and she permitted us to stay and visit without rushing us out the door. Our valet kindly brought our vehicles to the front door and delivered the keys to our table so we were able to avoid getting wet with the light rain. Very thoughtful. All in all a great meal and we are already looking forward to a return visit.

Great lunch in a great location with friendly service and delicious food!

We had a wonderful time all around. The music that was playing was lovely, service excellent, food spectacular.
