food and service was good. main course had too much salt but sauce was excellent. only certificate amount is too small.

Excellent food, atmosphere and service all at a fair price. A family owned business that cares.
The service was excellent....Robert, the son of the owner, provides caring service and his dad never misses giving a warm welcome. The bruschetta is not too great. The bread was enjoyable. Puree of vegetable soup was excellent. My wife enjoyed the cacaio pepe and I had the lasagna which was ok. Our friend seemed to enjoy her mussels (appetizer size, but quite generous). Crème brulee was very good. In addition we had a total of two glasses of wine shared between the three of us. Charge including the tip was $137.00.

This will be our new neighborhood restaurant. Great food, great service, great ambiance.
All three courses were outstanding. Especially liked the steamed spinach with olive oil, garlic and purée Cannaloni sauce

Excellent food, excellent service -- friendly and attentive!
Roberto was excellent: the son of the owner. The food was out of this world!!!!
Food, service, ambiance always excellent at La Bruschetta.
Greeting, service, food, ambiance all excellent - and a good value as well.
Great food and service and in a pleasant environment without the loud clamor of so many other restaurants. We really enjoyed it. Nice sized portions and very fair prices too. We will be back.
During our wait outside the restaurant prior to its opening up, one of the staffers allowed us to enter although he had not been fully prepared. We thanked him for doing so because it was a bit chilly. He and other staff were so gracious, professional,friendly, engaging, as well as witty. The ambience was quite authentic and comfortable, but sophisticated. It was an enjoyable evening!
Service perfect, food very good, place with nice decoration.
Warm greeting from the Owner, Angelo. Background music was at the perfect level to carry a conversation. Awesome food & Service!
Very nice and classy environment. Even though I didn't get what I initial set out to order, but next time I will make sure to order what I really want and not just what the waiter suggest.
We loved our waitress and the food was fabulous. We really enjoyed the calamari and our ribeyes were delicious.
The bread needs improvement. The Greek salad that I usually love was not cold and the dressing was not as good as usual. Seafood pasta was good and one of our friends enjoyed the Veal Marsala. Ladies shared the Marinara pasta and said it was very good except that it was not as hot as the would have liked. Service was excellent.
I rate restaurants by judging food, service and ambiance. Each of our dishes were excellent. Salad, fish and pasta dishes were each done extremely well. Service was impeccable. I especially like it when the owner is present and comes around to ensure that things are going well. And the ambiance is old school neighborhood Italian restaurant. Perfect!
Food is delicious and service is excellent. The gnocchi is among the best I've tasted in the US. Pricing is on the high side but the restaurant.com certificate sure helps.
Great food and service!
Bread selections are weak. Love their Greek Salad. Pastas are good as is the Chicken Milanaise. Owner cares about his customers and the staff is very good. Convenient to the Landmark Theater.
Excellent Greek and Tri Colore Salads.....Delicious Rigatoni Bolognese, Marinara Spaghetti and steamed spinach. All excellent. Poor bruschetta, fair bread, and didn't enjoy the cheese cake. Service was good. Owner/host is heavily involved in insuring the comfort of his guests. All in all a good bet in Westwood for an enjoyable meal.
Lovely atmosphere, good food, excellent service.
I have been here in past but now that moved into neighborhood I am sure I will go more often. Food is always very good and service is great.
The customer service was great all around: the host, the server, etc. Everyone seemed genuinely pleased to serve us.
Ian was an amazing waiter. His suggestions were spot on from the wine to the special preparation of the fish I ordered. The owner and his son are people that you would love to have as neighbors.
Excellent atmosphere; excellent service; items were overpriced by $2-$5.
Angelo the owner has the nicest personality and is very hospitable...Entire staff and Robert the waiter..
The pasta and wine were excellent.
Not only did Angelo the owner come over to our table to introduce himself he brought us over a free dessert for it being our first visit. The food was delicious!

Waiter did not seem to like our restaurant certificate.
Staff was very friendly and helpful. Made the evening a success
The atmosphere was very nice, the service good, prices reasonable, and the food was good, but not great.
Lovely restaurant, excellent server, fantastic food - thank you.
Lovely restaurant, and the server gave EXCELLENT suggestions which lead to an absolutely PERFECT meal. Loved it.
Server was attentive, filled water glasses regularly, and sang happy birthday and great slice of Tiramisu Cake. The appetizer wasn't great, sliced thin filet mignon with sliced cheese on it, but all the other food was great. Oso bucco, lasagna, and chicken milanase was delicious.

It is always a pleasure to dine at la Bruchetta. The waiters are wonderful, the food delicious, the setting perfect.
Excellent food, Excellent service
We were seated at a table next to a large party, we asked to be changed and they were very accommodating. Owner is always there and is very willing to please.
The food, service, ambiance were very good. We could hear each other talk. It's an excellent value.
The service was terrible. The wait staff spent most of their time facing the bar with their backs to us. This happened the last time we went there as well.
vgery good food and service
Amazing service and food!
Ambiance, service and food all wonderful.
Only thing keeping you from a 5 (in my book) is a lit candle on the table.
Great food , great service
extremely warm welcome by owner, who is very accommodating and rightfully proud of his cuisine
Service and food is always good at La Bruschetta. It's quiet enough to have a civilized conversation w/friends, also.
The food was decent, but not great. Felt like the variety of pasta dishes was limited
The experience was delightful. The restaurant had nice ambiance, was just busy enough, and our waiter was helpful and efficient but not intrusive. Wonderful! And the food was perfect..very different but excellent antipasto salad and the entrees were superb, and the bread is baked on site...another plus!
The food is excellent and the experience is delightful but the prices are very high - salad, soup and an entree cost $50.00+. They would do better if a salad was included in the entree. People are not spending like they used to.
great food, good service, Angelo is very friendly.
The highlight of the meal at our table was a delicious Greek Salad and my chicken milanaise. Other dishes included a pasta and mussels.
The staff were exceptionally friendly, and our waiter made excellent suggestions as to the menu items. The food is always delicious there!
Great food, great service, great value.
We were thrilled with this restaurant. They accommodated my heart-health requests and gave us a fantastic experience. I tipped 30%.
Very cozy atmosphere, attentive servers with above average food and a nice selection of fare.
very loud . .. poor acoustics.
Excellent restaurant with consistently good food, solid service and very reasonable prices.
Very nice, we'll be back for sure.
We love Angelo and always want to patronize an independent restaurant. Restaurant.com was indeed a factor in our choice.
The food was delicious. The owner was very gracious. We ate too much because everything tasted so good.
Very nice restaurant. A little pricey for 2 people, especially the desserts. The service by Ray was great!
Outstanding meal, service and ambiance. Will go back and definitely recommend.
This was a fine dining experience and we will certainly come back.
we didn't pay the bill as our daughters suprised us and took over. the meal experience was excellent as was the service. two of us asked for a dish not on the menu, mussels in white wine, they said no problem however it was less then average, poor. everything else was amazing. our lesson, stick to the menu. thank you
the owner is hands on and makes you feel right at home
Always good food & service. A pleasant evening each time we dine there.
Initially they didn't want to accept the coupon, but then the manager interceded. Bad experience right at the get go. food was good and the service was adequate, but the staff were not friendly.
Everything was terrific -- the food, the ambience, the service, I definitely recommend this restaurant.
Everything was wonderful. We would have liked to have known in advance the prices of the specials.
We waited a long time for our dinner, restaurant was not that busy, we ate after 8:00 PM and when the pasta arrived, it was not cooked enough, which was a surprise because it took so long for the meal to arrive and the restaurant was not that busy. Waiter made up for it with a complimentary dessert.
It is a very nice restaurant. We had eaten there years before, so that's how we knew of it.
very suprised with service, very nice people. will go back!!!
Excellent Greek Salad. Pasta is good as was the chicken milanaise.
