About this restaurant

Good for special occasions
Charming
Neighbourhood gem

For years, Paolo and Teresa Gaspari honored their Italian roots by bringing people together to enjoy good food, great wine and the company of friends and family. In 2019, John Ekizian took the reins and remains excited to continue the tradition of La Famiglia. The simplicity and perfection of fresh ingredients is the root of every meal we prepare here at La Famiglia, and all of our dishes pair beautifully with our vast collection of fine wines. From our pasta to our sauces, even to our freshly-squeezed lemon juice, we start from scratch. One bite, and you’ll understand the difference that handmade truly makes. Our courteous and attentive wait staff is ready to welcome you. Whether you’re joining us for a special night out, a family gathering or simply because you’re craving a delicious Italian meal, we hope you’ll spend it with La Famiglia.

Very enjoyable lobster escargot and scallops with risotto. Not quite Italy, but La Famiglia is always good for a nice evening out.

The drinks were the best part of our dining experience. The caesar salad wasn’t a caesar, poor quality. The entree was lacking flavor and quality. I honestly could have made better at home, and I’m not a chef. I heard so many good reviews but honestly didn’t see the draw to this place.

Good food and prepared fairly quickly allowing us to dine and attend a performance at the theatre next door. Very convenient, the 2nd time we have chosen La Famiglia for dinner prior to the show.
