My wife and I have been fans of La Familia for years. The Cumberland, Rhode Island location has…read morebeen our special place for anniversaries and Valentine's dinners, so we already knew how wonderful their food and hospitality could be. Today we had the opportunity to visit the Taunton location for a bereavement luncheon after a family funeral, and I was truly impressed. The luncheon was held in a beautiful private room upstairs that was set up perfectly for our gathering. Everything was elegant, comfortable, and thoughtfully arranged. The meal was served family-style buffet, and every dish was outstanding. The quality of the food was exactly what we've come to expect from La Familia--fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with care. What really stood out, though, was the staff. They were incredibly welcoming and attentive to everyone's needs, yet never rushed our group. Considering the emotional circumstances of the day, their kindness and professionalism meant a lot to all of us. And I have to mention the bread--whoever makes it deserves special recognition. I would happily buy a loaf or two every week if I could. A sincere chef's kiss to the entire establishment and especially the function team who handled our event so beautifully. La Familia continues to prove why it's such a special place for our family.

In the course of our time only two other tables were occupied in the dining room. The food was good, nothing to really blow your mind. Pasta wasn't home made and how they price it, it should be. The service was VERY slow. I'm not sure if our waitress was also cooking maybe ? I got a martini and my fiancé got a beer. It took ten minutes to get to us. The food took even longer. We sat for a long time before our waitress noticed and brought us our boxes and check. I would say go if you have a long time to spare, but if you're paying a babysitter by the hour definitely budget for a longer time out. This isn't something ide normally write about especially if they were busy but it was a Thursday night, only two other tables so it wasn't busy. My lobster seafood ravioli was good but didn't come with a good portion. It had 4 ravioli, two shrimp and two scallop. Not a ton for the high price tag of $36. Ide like to give them another shot since we are very local ! Hopefully this was just a one off ?

My experience got off to a very rocky start due to abysmal bar service. Arriving early, I decided…read moreto wait at the bar for my party to arrive. The waits were so long, one would think I was at the RMV! I would be more understanding if it were busy, but both the restaurant and bar were far from bustling. When it came to the drinks, I had two mocktails. If I recall correctly, one was an N/A version of a sparkling sangria, and the other was a lime tart. While neither was horrible, neither was something I would order again. The sangria was far too sweet, and a lemon wedge was floating in the drink itself rather than being a garnish. Was I supposed to fish it out with my hands? The lime tart was on the opposite end of the spectrum, being too tart and proving that a little sweetness does go a long way. When my party arrived, we began our dinner. The food was generally okay and decent, but nothing worth raving or writing home about. From the App Trio, I was able to try a toasted raviolo and a mozzarella stick. Both weren't bad, but not good enough that I'd order a standalone appetizer in the future. The raviolo was nicely toasted, though perhaps a little more crispness was called for, and the cheese filling was pleasant, but not mind-blowing. As for the mozzarella stick, while I've had worse, these also weren't great. I believe mozzy sticks should be crisp and gooey, the kind where you see how far the cheese will pull. These are bite and done, with no pulling to be done. For a main, I had the Trio 2 (Lasagna, Chicken Parm & Fettuccine Alfredo): Fettuccine Alfredo: This was my favorite. While a simpler dish, it was very well executed. The pasta was cooked and sauced perfectly. If I were to return, I would get this as a main if available. Lasagna: This was lackluster, with nothing to make it shine. The layers were there, but the execution meant that it might as well have been a pasta, tomato, and cheese salad. A little toastiness, different tomato sauce, maybe some meat, or a cheese blend would have gone a long way. Chicken Parm: This was also a miss. While I always appreciate some Parm, the chicken tasted dry and lacked a crisp exterior to boot. It was better than frozen stuff from the grocer's, but only just. Where I do want to give them some credit was regarding their desserts. I had the opportunity to try the chocolate cake and the carrot cake. Both were great, and the carrot cake was a favorite. However, if memory serves, they get these from a local bakery, so I'm not even sure if "their" desserts is the appropriate term. The table service was better than the bar service, but there was still room for improvement. It was a little faster, but especially considering how empty the restaurant was, I feel as though it could have been more attentive (with water refills, for example). Final Verdict: This was a case where my friends selected a place that would be a halfway point between all of us (isn't being an adult lovely?). I was there for the company more than the food. However, I am still a foodie, and based on this experience, there are better options out there across all parameters. With this, even if my friends want to return here, I wouldn't rebel, but I would certainly suggest some alternative options.
