La Taverna is a true pioneer in Italian cuisine and has established itself in Hong Kong culinary history by being the oldest traditional Italian Restaurant in town! With a beautiful setting and high arched ceilings the venue is spacious and comfortable. Chianti bottles are dotted throughout the restaurant, still in their cosy straw cases and scenic paintings by the tables evoke the beauty of Italy.

However the true beauty here lies in the dishes carefully prepared with the utmost care and expertise, the stunning Seafood Soup is one such example of a fantastic dish on offer not only for it’s fun presentation in a large seashell but also for the heartiness of the broth and the generous servings of mixed seafood, including fresh mussels, scallops, prawns calamari and more!

All the hand crafted pasta dish that we enjoyed most was the Tagliolini con ragu di vitello. These bites of freshy delight are wrapped up in veal and zucchin infused pasta delicately seasoned with aromatic herbs that complement the freshness of the diced veal.

For meat lovers the “1855” Costata di Manzo, is a must try! This dish is a beautifully grilled prime rib eye steak served over a bed of roasted garlic, pickles, fries and perfectly red wine reduction. Each bite is juicy with the tender meat falling off the bone and naturally the highlight of this dish, without a doubt is the steak which has absorbed all the flavours from the slow cooking.

La Taverna also has a tremendous selection of wines to enjoy solo or with food, it’s definitely worth pursuing extensive wine list and make sure to look out for their own in house wine made from their own winery in Italy.

For an escape to the leisurely style of wining and dining with impeccable service try La Taverna today! (Jul 2018)

"You might be surprised to know that La Taverna is the oldest traditional Italian restaurant in Hong Kong (bravo to that!). When we think of old Italian cooking, we think of a mama stirring the tomato pasta with her long wooden spoon in her huge silver pot, and this place is not far off from that. The idea behind the La Taverna is to keep things slow and simple, just like mama would. It’s all about the rich and flavoursome foods under this old rickety roof." -Sassy Hong Kong
