La Trattoria - Carta

Popped in here for a quick lunch due to being in the area for business, I love italian food so thought i would give it ago, a fair way from fresh authentic but it filled a hole. Good value

We first started going to this restaurant together in 1996, the food is amazing and as a family run restaurant they make the customers feel important and valued, the staff are friendly and helpful.

Absolutely amazing food and service! We had bruschetta, olives, seafood spaghetti, spicy bacon penne, lemon sorbet and raspberry cheesecake! Couldn’t fault any of it- it was perfect. Properly authentic Italian food and experience for an incredible price! We are already planning our next trip to this restaurant! Ver carta

Lovely little restaurant. Good find, great service and great food. Lovely welcome, food was very tasty and plentiful. Disappointed that some things were ‘out of season’ but with good advice helped to an alternative. Great start to our holiday and if back this way would definitely return to this lovely restaurant. Thank you!

A fantastic experience with an authentic Italian feel. Michael and Agnes always make you feel like part of the family and the food is always top quality. I have been coming here regularly for nearly 20 years and cannot think of many places better than this. In spite of the number of times I've already been here, I still look forward to my next visit.

The la trattoria is the number one restaurant in Luton and Dunstable. Myself and my sister really look forward to going here. The food is amazing and great value for money. Being in the restaurant is like stepping into Italy it’s very traditional in its decor and its food. The food arrives nice and hot. The atmosphere is great. Our favourite is the king prawns they are delicious. The owners Micheal and Agnes a very friendly and make you feel very welcome. Ver carta

This is a real authentic italian restaurant serving fresh and tasty food. It is very very reasonably priced, good sized portions, a simple menu covering lots of italian dishes and lovely staff. They serve things when they are in season and have a range of specials too. We had a bruschetta to share with our mains and the tomatoes were so fresh. I went with colleagues for an evening dinner and we all left with full stomachs and happy faces. We all had a mix of pasta and pizza and would all visit again!

Very nice food, overall I would say it was a very good experience. From the start the servers were extremely attentitive, we had two young children with us who were extremely tired and they were supportive of any kick off/tantrum that was experienced. When we were given our meals we were given recommendations and a list of the food still available (as we turned up very late), we were also provided with a list of specials, all sounding delicious. Thoughout the meal we were checked up on to make sure we were happy with our meal and afterwards we were kept company until our taxi arrived (this was longer than average due to it being a peak time and a busy night). Overall I'd rate the experience...

After reading all the good reviews we decided to try this restaurant and had high expectations We arrived to not a particularly warm welcome the waitress told us the specials were chicken, steak and veal and walked off no mention of how they were cooked or what sauces they came with and no prices after asking how the veal came the waitress had to go into kitchen and ask the chef who shouted out how they were cooked and the waitress then said did you hear that? we decided to just order off of the menu we ordered drinks to start with (a bottle of rose wine plonked on the table not even opened) when the lady came to take our order we asked if we could have a few minutes to finish our pre dinner...
