I HAVE BEEN TO LA TRAVIATA RISTORANTE MANY MANY TIMES AND EACH DINING EXPERIENCE HAS BEEN ENJOYABLE.
I WAS SURPRISED TO READ THE NEGATIVE 2 STAR REVIEW GIVEN BY JOE SIMONETTI. I TOTALLY DISAGREE WITH THE REVIEW.
LET ME TELL YOU ABOUT MY DINING EXPERIENCE. FROM THE MOMENT YOU WALK IN THE PLACE THE ATMOSPHERE IS WARM, COZY, AND CHARMING. YES, THE PLACE IS NOT BIG, BUT IT ADDS TO THE COZZINESS AND CHARM. KEEP IN MIND, THIS IS A SMALL HOMETOWN RESTAURANT WITH GOOD QUALITY FOOD AND SERVICE. THE DECOR IS CUTE AND CHARMING. DONT GO IN THERE AND EXPECT THE TAJ MAHAL. ON THE WEEKENDS, LIKE EVERY RESTAURANT, IT GETS VERY BUSY. I SUGGEST RESERVATIONS. DURING THE WEEK, IT IS NOT SO BUSY. IF YOU DO NOT LIKE BIG CROWDS, DO NOT GO ON THE WEEKEND GO DURING THE WEEK IF THAT IS SOMETHING THAT BOTHERS YOU.
THE FOOD FROM THE BREAD TO THE DESSERTS ARE EXTRAORDIARY. EVERYTHING IS MADE ON PREMISES. BESIDES, WHO GOES TO A RESTAURANT TO EAT BREAD. I GO FOR THE FOOD. I AM SO IMPRESSED BY THIS LITTLE HOMETOWN RESTAURANT PUTS OUT THE FINEST GOURMET DINING YOU WILL FIND IN ITALY IT SELF. THE PRESENTATION AND TASTE OF EACH ITEM SPEAK FOR ITSELF. YOU CAN ACTUALLY TASTE THE PASSION AND THE HARD WORK THAT GOES INTO EACH DISH. JUST TRY FOR YOUR SELF.
AS FOR THE SERVICE, IMPECCABLE. THE OWNER AND STAFF REALLY PUT ALOT OF HARD WORK AND EFFORT INTO MAKING EACH AND EVERY DINING EXPERIENCE A ENJOYABLE ONE. THEY ALL KNOW THEIR STUFF. THEY WILL ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS YOU MAY HAVE REGARDING THE MENU AND WHAT WINE WILL GO WITH YOUR MEAL. JUST VERY KNOWLEGDABLE.
I WOULD NOT CHANGE A THING. I LOVE THE PLACE AND ALWAYS RECAMEND IT TO MY FRIENDS AND I AM RECAMENDING IT TO YOU.
SINCERELY,
DANIELLE PAPA SEE YOU THERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I was refered to this resturant through dine.com and was kind of dissapointed in the inaccuracy of the 5 star ratings that some people gave.I found it to be too congested.The tables are right on top of each other.I felt like i was having dinner with strangers at my table.The bread that i recieved tasted like day old bread.The food is better than the service.The help is not very proffesional.I felt like we were being rushed with our dinner so they could get more people in.Not a very pleasant expiriance in my opinion. less

La Traviata made our group feel welcome, even though the kitchen was just about to close.We did feel bad that we had them stay open, BUT!!! They assurred us that we were more than welcome to stay and have dinner.And have dinner we did!!!!!! The atmosphere itself is classic of an "old" Italian Bistro'The music is even better!It is all of the Italian Classics from La Traviata (YES the opera, their namesake, and, of course Boccelli, and everything in-between) to modern "italian rock"..
The menu, upon reading seemed kind of the "norm" that all restaurants have, but when we were served what we ordered, the GREATNESS began........
Upon asking our waiter we were informed about how "fresh" the whole meal was prepared.From the actual cooking of the pasta per order to the Tiramasu made that afternoon (AS IS THEIR CHEESECAKE, AND CREME BROULET!) which we ordered after and enjoyed The Espresso, and Cappuccino is also ground and made to order as well. As a patron used to Manhattan, Hoboken, and Newark Bistros, This place is HIGHLY RECCOMMENDED!!!!
On my own....I would say it is an ABSOLUTE 5-STAR DEAL!! less

I've been to this restaurant for lunch, dinner, birthday parties and work parties. Each time the experience has been wonderful. The waiters and waitresses are extremely friendly. The atmosphere, with Sinatra or classical opera music, is excellent. Not to mention the food which is delicious. I have recommended this restaurant to many friends and none were disappointed. less
