Mona Lisa Cucina - Reserva de mesa

The exterior belies the cozy interior. We chose to sit at the intimate wine bar. While the service was attentive, informative, and (questionable on the genuineness) friendly, there was a feeling of confusion and chaos among the roles of the staff. We appreciated the energy in the service, but found it a bit pushy, taking a little away from a relaxed dining experience. Both of our entrees (Spaghetti alla Checca and Pollo Marsala) were attractive in appearance, generous in portions, however lacked the the savory flavors we desired there was a disappointing sweetness in both of our dishes. Cute place but the dishes, sadly, do not have us longing to return.

I had to try this place because one of my buddies said that he loves it. I'll start with the bread. Not sure if this was normal but the first basket was crunchy almost like croutons. The waiter, who was really nice brought a second basket (I think he noticed that is was crunchy) and the second was a little better. However, it did seem like sliced store bought bread. Our main was the Mona Lisa Rigatoni. I thought the sauce was really good but the meatballs had to be frozen. They seemed a bit rubbery and I swear they tasted like the bagged meatballs from Trader Joe's. 3.5 stars It is much nicer now that it's bigger.

Food was good, a bit pricey but good service too. I would like to see an optional menu with pictures of the food. Thanks to all those that posted pictures as those helped my daughter with making her selection. I had the shrimp special which was full of flavor. Will be going back to try something off the regular menu. If it's your first time, let the staff know for you might get a dessert at the end of your meal on the house

Very welcoming staff. Nicely explained everything because it was our first time. Started with 2 salads, wedge with a homemade cesar dressing and the insalata beet salad. Both we cold, fresh and delicious. If some where can't make good a salad don't eat the hot food. We split the risotto dish .. was fantastic, healthy portion enough for 2. Price was just under 50 We will be coming back to try more. THANKS GUYS Reserva una mesa ahora

Took food to go, so I'm not sure if this was part of it, but one of our orders was wrong, and the chicken was dry. Maybe the food quality is way better when dining in. This was a miss for me, but not completely. Maybe I will give this another try someday.

Really good food all the way around. Zero complaints. The service was a bit lacking and the atmosphere is a little odd the use of space and the lack of space between your neighbor's table. But all around very good
