When you want a total family experience and fresh, hot off the stove, delicious Italian meal, La Scogliera is the place to be. It has a small dining room with about 14 tables, depending on the settings. There's also a well stocked, separated bar area with seating at the counter and a few more small tables for dining.
The food is simply delicious no matter what you order, either off the normal menu, or from their daily specials. They clearly state on their menu that it takes time for their foods to be prepared, so after ordering, be patient until that foods comes out to you hot and delicious. It'll be worth the wait.
The wait staff is always on alert and very attentive to your needs.
This tucked away restaurant on River Road in Shelton, CT has now become a favorite spot for me, even though it's two towns away from my home. I've been inviting friends to join me there for dinner and they all have the same positive opinion of this place. If you don't want to dine in, they also have take out service which is how I first ordered from this place during the pandemic. The food was still nice and hot when I got home.
I highly recommend La Scogliera to anyone who's looking for a great dining experience, where they can have a quiet conversation during dinner, without the frantic hustle and bustle of a chain restaurant. Enjoy.
I'm just a Nashville girl, on a work trip, stumbling across this delightful AUTHENTIC Italian restaurant, humbly begging you to try the cake that is baked in house by the owner. I got the white chocolate with almond and coconut cake to go, and had to forcibly stop myself from eating it all in the hotel room all in one go. Not sweet at all, but creamy, rich and dense with toasted almond. It made this three-day work trip worth it.
I also had the red snapper with mussels and clams. It was great, but sooo much food after grilled octopus, calamari, and an antipasto.
Anyway. 10/10 go here.
Amazing food. Such kind family and professional service. Real Italian food. Visiting from Florida and family member recommended. Best recommendation ever.
Wonderfully authentic Italian restaurant. La Scogliera is neatly appointed with a warm welcoming family environment. The owners are from Calabria who prepare fresh pasta dishes with many homemade pasta choices. The staff members are extremely friendly and jovial which compliments the vibe of the restaurant itself. My wife and I, being Italians ourselves, were extremely impressed with the quality, taste, and presentation of the food that was prepared for us. The Calamari fra diavolo was the most delicious calamari that my wife and I have ever had in any restaurant. I would hands down recommend La Scogliera to all of my family and friends.
Amazing Italian food. The best!
Great service and the nicest people & staff serving dinner.
Best service. Food is incredible. Favorite place to eat. Kimmy the bartender is the best.
One of the best Italian restaurants around. It is not a fancy place but the food is excellent!
