I have traveled all over the US and this is one of the finest Italian restaurants I have ever had the pleasure to find in my travels. The food is consistent and the management is there to make sure everything is to your satisfaction.

The BEST place in the world!!! I loved to eat there all the time. The owner Sr. Frank Auddino was so kind and always there for us when something was wrong. If we told him that the clams had to much sand in them, he would take everything with clams off the menu. Overall it was the best dining experience I had ever had.

We have eaten at LaVigna's a number of times. Their Italian selections are all excellant.
We have also taken our entire family (Moms birthday) and all 14 guests have returned on their own, for encores.
The prices are moderate, portions large, service is very good. They also serve an exceptional ROAST DUCK, my personel favorite. We rate it, TOPS for a great meal that is affordable.
