[La Scala
Restaurant Review
Since opening in 1956, La Scala has been popular with the locals and entertainment industry with its comfortable red booths and drawings of Hollywood figures lining the walls. Traditional Italian fare is offered, as well as an exceptional wine list supplied by Owner Jean Leon’s personal vineyard, Chateau Leon, in Spain. The restaurant is revered for its Chopped Salad, but other menu highlights include the Steamed Mussles served in a broth of garlic, white wine and tomato sauce, and the Tiramisu served with fresh whipped cream and berries. The quality of ingredients has never faltered in the restaurant’s long history, and it continues to set the bar for fine Italian fare.

Title: | Rude, snotty service. |
I had never been here before, however, I patronize several other restaurants and in particular, the Grand Havana Room, all within a few blocks of La Scala. This afternoon, I have a business meeting at La Scala, and the waiter was the rudest I believe I ever have experienced. The Manager, when I called him over to complain, didn't do anything to correct the slight or the cause of it, and the new waitress we were assigned was barely polite, and you could tell that she was putting on a face to appease the rude and unreasonable customers. The tone of the business meeting was ruined, I didn't end up ordering any food (my company did) because I was so irritated and I refuse to give my money to an establishment such as this. If you want to be treated like dirt by food service personnel as they charge you ridiculous prices for mediocre food, by all means, dine here. However, there is a multitude of fantastic restaurants, including better Italian ones, within a few blocks. Stay away.
