    The dining experience was excellent, and the crab cakes were delicious. The signature dishes of the fillet and chicken piccata were fabulous.

    The food at La Posta is excellent as usual, and the music was fabulous. The only thing is the servers are being a little bit strange these days we go there all the time we’re familiar with the wine list and the menu and for some reason, the waiter actually read us the entire menu. My friend and I are both over 70 but we don’t have any visible physical impairments and I don’t really understand why the waiter it was so patronizing. Then, and this is a common problem with American restaurants, kept coming over and whenever he came over he just started talking to us. He didn’t wait and see when we were done talking or make eye contact to ask permission. He just interrupted over and over again.  my friend and I love La Posta and we will certainly go back again, but I don’t understand the strange behavior.

    Delicious dinner focused on truffles and parmigiano cheese. Pasta was dine done perfectly. Wonderful arancini for appetizers and shared salads were also tasty. The evening’s choices were made easier by the expertise of our waiter, Justin, who recommended a perfect wine selection for our meal. A delightful evening!
