They were concerned because they only wanted to book parties of 4 or more. Wanted 6:15p but they insisted we come in earlier. 5p. Received a call today. Can you come in at 4:30p instead? We want to make sure you have enough time to finish your meal before our other guests (the 4 or more parties) arrive. We decided to stick with 5p. Sounded like they'd rather have us for lunch. WTF?!

We also got oysters and calamari which was also delicious. The calamari has Brussel sprouts which were crispy. We will return in the future

We had heard about La Voglia and decided to try it out! We went on a Friday evening and it wasn't…read moretoo crowded. The restaurant has a warm feel to it and is decorated nicely. They serve a delicious homemade bread that's warm when it's brought the table. In addition, it's accompanied by a dish of olive oil, with balsamic vinegar and what I believed to be a spicy dusting of pepper. It was a little too spicy for me - however, I did like the addition of the balsamic as a change from just olive oil. I would skip the pepper though, unless you like spice. We ordered the Polpette as an appetizer; it's a 'tradition' of mine. If meatballs are on the menu, I will always order them. These lamb, veal and beef meatballs were very good, and the marinara sauce they came in was excellent! The sauce is actually a 'roasted pomodoro' gravy - which is an 'intensified' version of a classic Italian sauce. It's made by roasting the tomatoes at a very high heat and almost caramelizing them. A little feta was added to the sauce, which really highlighted those meatballs!! We split the order - as 5 meatballs is quite a large appetizer! We decided to share two entrees - the Beef Short Ribs and the Lobster Ravioli. I always ask if the short ribs are lean - our server responded they were very lean...and they were. Soft, tender and very flavorful large chunks of beef, with a deliciously rich gravy with mushrooms on a bed a creamy garlic mashed potatoes! It was a superb dish! The website said the Short Ribs were the restaurant's most popular meal. Next, the Lobster Ravioli. The dish was a very 'delicate' one, with a very subtle brandy cream sauce. It had chopped jumbo shrimp and peeled cherry tomatoes with the raviolis. While the sauce tasted fine, it needed 'something' - we added pepper which helped. The raviolis were good - we couldn't taste lobster in the cheese of the raviolis - we assumed it was there. The chopped shrimps though provided a nice additional seafood flavor. I like my raviolis tender - the kind that almost melt in your mouth. The pasta here was firmer - a little more 'al dente', but it was fine. We ended our meal with the Chocolate Mousse. Served in a martini glass, the mousse had a velvety texture with a deep dark chocolate flavor. It was very rich yet light and fluffy; a good choice for dessert!

The bread was good. My mom had the shrimp scampi. It came with a lot of shrimp. The shrimp cooked perfectly. The pasta was al dente. I ordered linguine with mussels. They brought linguine with clams instead. I told the server I would just eat the linguine with clams rather than waste it. She did bring me over an appetizer order of mussels so I could also have the mussels that I wanted. I was happy they rectified the mistake. We had a Prosecco split. It was very good.

For entrees we shared the Bronzino, filleted at the table , and the linguini with fresh seafood.

We waited close to an hour for our entrees while the restaurant continued to fill up. With a hungry toddler, the long delay made it difficult to enjoy the visit. After waiting so long, we ultimately asked to have our food packed to go because staying any longer wasn't practical for our family. We also noticed that several nearby tables appeared to receive their entrees before we did, despite arriving after us, which left us feeling overlooked. As Asian and Puerto Rican customers, this made us wonder whether we were being treated differently. We can't know for certain what caused the delay, but the experience left us feeling unwelcome and overshadowed what should have been an enjoyable meal.

The Arancini was very good as was the Special Grilled Octopus in a Hummus Salad. There were 4 of us and we all felt that the entrees were good but didn't rise to what our expectations were, based on other reviews. The Lobster Gnocchi was good but seemed to be missing the lobster. The best part of the Scallop Risotto was the perfectly seared Scallops but the risotto itself was just ok. The Fiochi di Pere was good but overall didn't have all that much flavor. The Chicken Parmigiana was a very generous portion of chicken and pasta but the Italian seasoning was almost overpowering. I don't like writing reviews like this but like I said, we're in the minority review-wise on this one. Give it a try. Our experience just wasn't as good as what we expected.

The small complimentary bruschetta was tasty and a nice touch, as were the limoncella shots and tiny ricotta crepes. Service was friendly. It's also nice that this was a BYOB. The food itself, the entrees, though, were pretty disappointing. I had the eggplant parmigiana, which was very overdone and mushy, pretty tasteless, with very little cheese. Not the eggplant parm that was expected at all. I didn't finish it. My partner ordered the spaghetti carbonara. It was hot and creamy but bland-tasting. The grated cheese brought to the table was flavorless; way short of the Reggiano that's usually grated in front of you at a great, authentic Italian restaurant. We split the oreo mousse cake for dessert; it was passable. Glad we tried this eatery, but I don't think we'll be back.
