Celebrating our 43rd Anniversary. Food and service were amazing . Always a good meal whether we take out or dine in . Thanks Nick for never disappointing. ..

Quaint atmosphere, superior service, food was wonderful, will definitely return

Everytime we com it s a most pleasant experience! Food and drinks are excellent, service is great and prices more than fair! Highly recommend this gem away from State street. Thanks, Nick and all!

One of our favorite places to go to. The food is delicious, the staff is amazing, and the bar is buzzing. We love this place

Danielle, Missy and the Gelato Queen were wonderful ambassadors for your restaurant. We had the best food and service.

Delicious food. Wonderful and caring staff. Nice place. Very considerate kitchen staff, too. Only negative thing to say is the acoustics are not the best. It is very loud in there. I’ll still come back because everything else is on point!

Another great dinner!! Always a fabulous experience!! Thank you Nick, Laurie and staff!!

We went to La Padella tonight to celebrate my father-in-law's birthday. It was our first time, but won't be our last. Everything was delicious! I had the shrimp and crab linguini and it was the best I've had in a long time! The carrot cake dessert was delicious and I highly recommend it! I can't wait to try the crabcake which comes highly recommended. The Brussel sprouts with crab was out of this world!

Appetizers and main courses were great. Service was just as good....very friendly staff. We will be back

We are so lucky to live close by to La Padella! The food is terrific, Danielle and Amanda couldn’t be nicer or more accommodating, and it’s the perfect combination of neighborhood favorite and a really delicious meal.

Excellent food and service was phenomenal!!

Delicious and varied menu, and really impressive, friendly and welcoming staff, all working together. Very nice experience

We have eaten here many times and want so badly for it to be one of our “go-to” places. However, we always leave disappointed. Tonight stuffed mushrooms were awful - mostly mushy stuffing. Veal Milanese was a very dry piece if veal over tasteless stems of dry Arugula…Definitely needed some moisture & flavor (and less stems). Portion size was good, but just totally flavorless. Service was good , attentive and server listened to our honest assessment if the food. Prior visits yielded overcooked, pasty pasta, which was so disappointing since they tout their “homemade” pastas… boxed would have been better.

We enjoyed a relaxing dinner and drinks, and were not rushed and received excellent service! Casual atmosphere.

Great hidden gem of media. Classic Italian fare, with some interesting twists. Portions were good. I ate half and was full and did not order appetizers. They have an amazing dirty martini(dirty padella) with garlic stuffed olives that was delicious and smooth I ordered a Cajun parpadell and my girlfriend order the Frutti Di Mare. Both meals arrived at the table steaming and delicious. The shrimp cooked to perfection. We split the berry sorbet for dessert and it was delicious. It went well with coffee and Guinness alike. Also don't skip the bread and oil. This simple and common table addition it executed to perfection.

Always feel so welcomed and taken care of by the owners and staff while we are here for dinner. Always a delicious meal when we dine with them. Specials are fantastic. Can’t wait to come back.

It appeared as though our waiter had little or no training. He offered to take our orders as soon as we sat down at the same time he took our drink orders. I moved my glass towards him when he brought the wine so he could pour a tasting. He proceeded to pour each of us a full glass. This is the first time that our entrees were delivered just as we were finishing our salads. This is the first time we were not specifically offered more bread, although we were asked at one point If everything was ok. They took away my wife’s leftovers to be boxed while I was still eating. The waiter asked if we wanted dessert before I finished my entree. I said we would decide after I finished my entree but he proceeded to bring the dessert tray. We are fairly regular customers and this is the first time we were not totally satisfied with the service. I hope things go better next time.

Staff was wonderful. Patient & kind & attentive. Food was excellent.

Brussel sprouts with lump crab was extremely salty with little crab. Veal parmigiana - first time I ever had it with gristle. Otherwise was good.

Always a great meal and service.

Gem of a place. First time, came in off hours for a very early dinner, and the food, service, and hospitality were excellent. We’ll definitely return.

Another great experience! The food, prices, service and atmosphere are outstanding. The staff, especially Amanda, are the best! I highly recommend this great establishment.

Amazon Italian food!!! Best service with Laurie. 😊

Great lunch at the bar with bartender of the year Amanda!

Delicious!!!! Definitely coming back!!

Great neighborhood place. Everyone is happy to see you. We’ve tried multiple dishes, never gone wrong. Everything’s been delicious.

Went here for a graduation dinner...it was adults & children. We enjoyed it very much!

Food and service was great. Our server Mark was very good. Next time we're in the area we will definitely visit.

Great meal, friendly staff & atmosphere.

This was my first time here and it was amazing! We went for Mother’s Day! My sister has a gluten allergy and there were many options for her which was nice! Staff was amazing, nice and attentive! Food was so good! The restaurant it self is adorable! Def recommend! The limoncello martini is to die for! We will def be back! So glad I found you on google!

The staff made our birthday celebration so special with a delicious dinner and amazing service. Such a wonderful evening!

Love the atmosphere- Love the food and service-

Loud. Food was ordinary with recipes that were uninspired. Wait staff was friendly and attentive.

The waitstaff was attentive and pleasant. The food was delicious

Tasty enough for home style Italian (northern style?) very nice bar and restaraunt. I have only one complaint the giant portions, They should add normal fancy restaurant portions. Huge portions are are turnoff for me, and I would never have date night there because of that do the math tons of food and take home stops the night cold. Anyway if you have an appetite this is the place to use it!

Absolutely delicious! I went there last night. I got the Bolognese, and it was wonderful. Papparadelle cooked al dente. The service was great, too.

Favorite local place for a nice date night!

Everything was fantastic. Brussel sprouts with crab, caccio e Pepe, and crab cakes were awesome. Well prepared with large portions. Love the dessert tray presentation!

We have been here once before and enjoyed it. Came back again tonight and were able to get in at the last minute on a Sunday night. Food was very good. My husband’s pasta was stuck together, but other than the meal was amazing. There was a very large party in the room adjacent to us and they were VERY loud. Our server Amanda was great. Very attentive. Great little spot.

Great service and fast love food

WOW! Our 1st visit and it won’t be our last! Our server Laurie was friendly and offered wonderful suggestions for our meals! Great server!!! The food was prepared with very traditional authentic Italian recipes! We loved the Arancini, veal parm and vodka tortellini. We really appreciate this delicious meal and the friendly service! Can’t wait to bring family and friends here!! Roseanne & Tom

Lisa is awesome, everyone in the place is fantastic. One of our regular stops

I had dinner with two other friends. We enjoyed our meals, the wonderful service and the atmosphere.

The dining experience I had was nothing short of fantastic. The meal that I had was prepared exceptionally well and was delicious. I was equally impressed with the service provided by the staff. The attentiveness and friendliness of the waitstaff were unparalleled. Overall, it was an amazing experience that I would highly recommend to anyone looking for a great meal and exceptional service.

Great food & service, Lisa was a fantastic waitress. Would definitely recommend.

Love La Padella. Lisa was our server this evening and was very attentive. The whole staff is always pleasant. Striped Bass special and Lobster Ravioli special…out of this world.

We love this place. Great food great atmosphere great price. The mussels appetizer is as good as it gets

We always have a great experience at La Padella. The staff are ultra professional and friendly. The food is always great. Overally our favorite special occasion place to go.

The food was delicious; all 4 of us had 4 different meals and they were excellent. The staff; hostess, server, bus girl were excellent. Atmosphere was great; just a little loud. Will definitely be back.

Fantastic Italian food and a family owned restaurant atmosphere. Good gluten free options as well

We went there for the first time for my wife's birthday dinner and we can't wait to go back.

This was our first time at this restaurant and I would highly recommend it! Food was fantastic and Service was impeccable! Everyone was so friendly and they made sure my birthday dinner was extra special 😋 🎂

I love the food at La Padella . I have been getting the chicken fried de ablo with fingerling potatoes

From the food to the Staff! la Padella is outstanding

The best sauce in Media PA! The specials each week are amazing. Great staff and atmosphere

Delicious food and amazing service. We were just passing through or we would be regular customers.

We celebrated my sister’s birthday here and this was our first visit. Crabcake was excellent, all crab and no filler.

Menu is kind of small, I customized my meal, nothing crazy, it took a long time to come out. They have eggplant and veal Parm but no chicken parm

A lovely spot for a good Italian meal! The server was very helpful and attentive, and the portions were generous. The drinks were also superb

We loaded up on cocktails and apps, and the pastas were generously portioned. Will be back.

As an Italian American who ate the foods of both grandmothers from two parts of Italy, I can say that the food at this restaurant is the real thing, it’s like both grand mothers are in the restaurant kitchen. Very authentic Italian food. Hey, Trust me, I know.

Delicious Italian Food with nice selection of appetizers

soooo so good we will be back!! everything had so much flavor, huge portion sizes, great service and priced reasonably! cannot wait to go back and try more off of the menu. brussel sprouts, arancini, our entrees and dessert were amazing

I must have driven by this place a 1000 times. Finally stopped and had dinner there tonight and it was Excellent!!

Everything was Great! Food was delicious and the staff was amazing!

Food was fan-freak-n-tas-tic! Party of 6 and everyone enjoyed their food. Jessica was our server and she was very friendly and the staff was very attentive. Definitely going back. And they accommodated us being a half hour late to reservation due to car trouble

Delicious food and drink, excellent service, wonderful ambiance, and just the right size. They even have a peanut butter bomb for dessert which takes them over the top!

Went her for Valentines Day. Service was ok. Service was ok. Waiter took a very long time with our drinks, never came back to ask if we wanted any more drinks during our meal. You get good size portions BUT I have had better Italian elsewhere and cheaper. The pasta wasn't hot and barely any sauce on it?!?! No grated cheese, had to ask for it. Disappointed experience.

Passed by a couple of times and made a mental note. As a family we made a last minute decision to go out to eat and referenced the mental note. Went to dinner with wife and two children under 12. Nice place, friendly people, good service. All four entrees were good with large portions. We enjoyed our visit and will definitely make a return visit.

Good service, friendly atmosphere and good food.

My first time but not my last. Food was awesome, service was great and the atmosphere was cozy

We went to La Padella for the first time yesterday afternoon for Happy Hour and it did not disappoint. The Penn Martini was perfect and was only $6 during Happy Hour which is amazing. We tried multiple dishes from their HH menu and honestly couldn’t say which one was better. Would highly recommend La Padella!

Food is amazing!!! Great place, cozy atmosphere, a wonderful night out with friends or a date. Definitely will be making this a regular spot.

My husband & I were there for dinner Saturday evening. My husband had filet tips& shrimp, I had pork loin. Our meals were both delicious. Portions were large & probably could have fed another person. We shared a caprese salad, which was more than enough for two. If you see these entrees on the menu , do not hesitate to order them, you will not be disappointed!

I love this restaurant. Food is fresh and great. Staff is wonderful.

Omg food was delicious. Great portions . If I can give them a ten I would. Awesome staff. Definitely going back.

Had a going away dinner for close friends. Food was fantastic and the service was awesome! Having the left overs tonight. Will definitely be back!

Great date night spot with the wife - arincini balls with pesto, linguini and clams and filet mushroom Alfredo were all amazing. Nice atmosphere and great service.
