La Nostra: Reviews & Ratings
Authentic, homemade Italian food. I'm really glad me and my boyfriend found La Nostra, it's really cosy and the food is delicious. Highly recommend the penne pollo!
If there were more stars it would be for this family run restaurant. Had landed at Stanstead and otw home, everything in the area was closed or closing at 1030. They said no problem. The specials were excellent, white/ cream with broccoli and sausages, ragu and seafood. The service was fantastic, the carafe Primitivo wine suggestion was great. The sauces and pasta was made from scratch with feelings and plenty of love and passion. 3 Adults and 1 kid - We left at midnight. Will definitely be coming back to try the wood oven fired pizzas. Will definitely be back.
Nice place with good food. I really enjoyed the hospitality from the lovely couple. Thanks for the chat
Phenomenal restaurant. The food is fresh and tasty every time I’ve been. Exquisite prawns and delicious linguini. Since eating the pizza from here, I’ll never go back to Dominos. The service is first class, so hospitable and authentic - helps the experience of dining. The atmosphere is just right, pleasant to be there, soft music and well decorated. Highly recommended. Look no further.
An absolutely gem of a restaurant. The restaurant is informal , and the service is excellent. The owners and staff are very attentive and professional. The food is delicious too. Definitely going back soon.
Service at first glance was a little bit timid. However I urge people to get in touch and book a table. Probably the best Calsone I've had in years. Outside of Italy (Stone baked in Jesolo). It was that good. Proper wow factor... The pesto was so fresh it stained my tongue green for over an hour. That's the mark of quality produce. Go see and taste for yourself. Rating SUPREME. I left very full and very happy. Prego, gracie mille.
Bledah throws a mean pizza, his wife Jenna is a wonderful hostess. We’ve been coming since they opened la Nostra for about 2 years. Must say the food and drinks are great and if we ask for something in particular we get it, the team are very friendly and accommodating. Highly recommend this cosy restaurant any day of the week.
The day before london went into tier 4, I tried to book a local Italian place for the last supper pre-lockdown and luckily La Nostra had space. I googled the best Italian near me and La Nostra popped up. Despite this, we had no expectations as I hadn’t seen many photos of the food. However, this has definitely become a firm favourite now! The food was so good and the staff were very helpful. Nothing was too much, since we were being quite picky and asked to make a few changes to items on the menu (e.g my boyfriend asked for a white sauce on a tomato based special of the day and I asked for a linguine pasta on a penne amatriciana). The highlight of the whole meal was the pizza. It’s made fresh in their pizza oven located in the dining area, so you can see your pizza being made right next to you. We got the margherita as a sharer alongside our pastas (carbs 4 life) and it is definitely a steal at 8.95!
