LaScala's Fire Villanova - Villanova, Pennsylvania

Aidan Uy

There was no wait for a party of 2 at 8pm with no reservation. We ordered the calamari, baked eggplant, fire's favorite panini, and chicken parmigiano.

The baked eggplant was amazing. I'm usually not a fan of eggplant, but the ricotta and tomato sauce were delicious.

The calamari was solid, but the sheer amount was impressive. After finishing the baked eggplant and calamari, I had no room for the entrees.

The chicken parmigiano was pretty much what you would expect. The chicken was slightly floury. For some reason, I preferred the flavor of the baked eggplant much more.

The panini had a light and refreshing flavor. The piadina was nice and soft, the vegetables were fresh, and the tomatoes were juicy. The prosciutto and mozzarella were very light in flavor.

Overall, it was a great experience. Our waiter was very attentive and the food was solid. I would love to come back and try their other dishes.

Water glass had lipstick on it. Plate was also dirty. Service is good. Food is very good. For the cost @ $120 for two people for a lunch and 2 drinks I can't see going back after being grossed out by the dirty plates and glasses. Also I did notice they had a pretty good whiskey selection including Jefferson Ocean. So pros and cons on this review.

Lots of good things to choose from. Our calamari and pizza were very good. Pizza crust is just right, chewy inside and crisp outside. Service was decent.

Note there is a 3% charge for the 50+% of people using credit cards.

The food is good, not too overwhelming and not too underwhelming. I always get eggplant parmigiano. The service is great, everyone is so kind. The atmosphere feels like a mix between a sports bar and an upscale Olive Garden. It's not horrible, but it's not a great place to enjoy a meal with others when someone across the room is screaming about the sports they see on TV.

Salty, salty, salty!!!! The chicken parm is like pure salt! The tomato sauce was over concentrated and salty like what you find at cheap restaurants that buy the sauce in bulk.

Came here for happy hour on the patio, it was busy but we got a table right away. Good happy hour deals, my favorite is the Fiero spritz! We ordered the ricotta board from the happy hour menu then the calamari and brussels from the regular menu. Everything was good, but didn’t blow us away and the portions were so large it felt like they were compensating quality for quantity. Also the brussel sprouts were doused in balsamic dressing, next time I will order dressing on the side

Holy Krimudgins!!!! This place gets an A rating from the friendly staff at the door to the waiters Shane the Guatemalan guy who greeted us and cleared our plates, I couldn’t be any happier.the ambience alone is worth the trip. Never came to a place where I felt so at home. I mean it was like meeting friends and family. The food speaks volumes I had the cheesesteak egg rolls with just 8 minutes left on the clock for happy hour the wife ordered me a beer and the app, she had the Caesar’s salad equally as delicious. For the main courses we ordered the spicy ahi grade tuna and the seafood fradiablo, I don’t eat much spicy food but they were able to make it for me with not too much spice the entrees came out fast and hot ,Super delicious. Shane bought out all the fixings a bowl for the shells and hot pepper flakes, oregano and Parmesan cheese on the side excellent dishes. I was stuffed by then. ILL BE SURE TO STOP BACK IN
I wanted to try a few other things on the menu.
Definitely check this place out if you’re in this state or in center city they have multiple locations throughout the city and the burbs.

Food was about average. I had the Italian Sausage bolognese and there was way too much sauce.

Server was nice, but could tell he was new. Our party of 4 just sat down and he said “I know you just sat down, but I can get you drinks?” Getting a drink menu first would’ve been a help, given this was our first time there.

Restaurant was crowded (which isn’t a bad thing for them) just a little too loud for my liking.
