10/11/2020 - Negative Experience
Let me first start out by saying I have been going to La Vera Cucina for many years and it used to be my favorite Italian restaurant in the area. I had dinner there Saturday, October 10th, and had a very negative experience.
The waiter was extremely unpleasant! He was the older tall gentleman with an accent. When we ordered my boyfriend ordered an alcoholic drink and I did not and the waiter rolled his eyes at me. This is not the first time he has been my waiter and if we do not order alcohol or an appetizer he has an attitude.
La Vera Cucina always used to give you a salad with your meal but this time our waiter took our order and walked away and overheard me say to my boyfriend "wait what about our salad" and he turned around and said, "you want a salad? ok". When the salad came it was on a very small plate with barely anything on it. In the past, we always got a nice size portion of salad and we were asked what type of dressing we wanted.
The meals have shrunk to 1/4 of the size they used to be. My boyfriend ordered the chicken parm, which used to come with pasta, and instead, it came with 2 very small pieces of a potato, 1 carrot, and 1 broccoli. I ordered the penne alla vodka, which I used to be able to bring 1/2 home, I was still hungry after eating it was so small.
I understand that times are hard now, but I would rather pay $5 more per meal and receive the normal portion they used to give.
If you do decide to go make sure you do not get that waiter.

I have eaten here about 40 times and I have never had a bad meal... Super consistent...
Menu is amazing and many dishes are unique and many you have never had before.. Try Seafood Tortolacci...
Pene Basilica... Chicken or Veal Toscana.. and Meatballs are really great... I'm Italian and had a Mom Grandmother and Aunts who were Great and i mean Great chefs... I've taken people here and they were like... Holy Sh-- why have I never eaten here? Go there and eat... You'll want to go again and again.
