The La Veranda Experience
Walking into the La Veranda, one would think that you would be eating with royalty, given the elegant presentation of the bar and formal dining area. Don’t be fooled by the extravagant layout, thinking that it might cost you $100 per person, not unless your meal would consist of more than a few drinks. The prices range from $15 – $40 per meal with the average price range per meal being around $28 – $32, not to include desert.
I have had the pleasure to have eaten here a few times. Once having the Filetto Di Red Snapper Alla Livornese O Alla Griglia and another time, the Surf and Turf. I am not a huge fish person, unless it comes to sushi, but both meals were excellent. I have had Red Snapper at a few restaurants throughout the City of Philadelphia, and this was by far the best, done to perfection. The surf and turf was to die for. The 8 oz filet, cooked on a woodfire grill, was done to my liking and the lobster tail was succulent in taste.
What does La Verande have to offer?
The Ristorante La Verande is an excellent place for that romantic evening, being very intimate, with some romantic views of the water. The restaurant not only has a formal dinning area, but offers three banquet rooms for those special occasions or parties. The restaurant also features over 150 different types of the finest domestic and imported wines. Keep in mind, depending on the night, reservations would be recommended.
