Wanting a quick snack, this was the perfect place. Walked in and had a great cup of minestrone. Been coming here for years and if your local you will too!!

We've been going to La Vera for probably 30 years and our kids were raised on the pizza and pasta. Consistently good! We appreciate the thin crust pizza and the pesto pasta is excellent. Also love those little pizza dough rolls and the gelato.
