Stroll along 17th St., between Lighthouse and Laurel and you will find one of the Peninsula’s favorite spots, La Mia Cucina. This little jewel, with its fresh ambiance and tantalizing menu, is popular with everyone. The colorful European advertising posters that enliven the walls, are “originals, not reproductions.” That phrase is accurate in describing La Mia Cucina itself. From the comfortable linen white decor, accented beautifully by those turn-of-the-century posters, to the hand-crafted entrees and desserts, everything about La Mia Cucina says fresh and original. Owner Michael’s specialty, his ravioli dishes, are a renowned local favorite, and for good reason. They are hand made, with all the care that only a lifetime of creative food combining can bring. In addition to pasta, La Mia Cucina is known for it's fresh fish and meat specials. The desserts are made in-house by his wife Paula and daughter Michaela, and the service is personal and inviting.

    My second experience at La Mia Cucina. I came fully prepared to have a salad and pasta, but couldn’t resist the sand dabs on the menu, and the minestrone sounded good, so…. Both were delicious, and just what I needed on a foggy night. Loved the garlic mashed potatoes, and I don’t think I’ve ever been served such a huge portion of fish in my life. The focaccia was light and perfect too. And then I treated myself to the Nutella bread pudding - yum! The restaurant itself feels like a warm hug. Lots of families celebrating the holidays. Lots of locals hugging the owners and one another. Just the right amount of attention from the servers. These people know how to run a restaurant, and it shows in every detail.

    First timers, but will definitely return again. Wonderful restaurant to celebrate a special occasion. We were seated in the Captains Room. The ambiance was exquisite. I can only describe the service as impeccable, they know how to treat their customers and make the dining experience a delight! Brandon and Pedro were absolutely wonderful!
