Transport over to Severna Park and find authentic Italian food made with fresh and imported ingredients the old-world way. A wood-fired oven is strategically centered in the heart of La Posta and an attentive, congenial staff is ready to guide you through the menu.Three of us went on a Saturday for lunch and shared their house red wine along with:

Starters

  • Margherita pizza was crispy and flavorful. The fresh Mozzarella, red sauce and basil was just the right amount on top of the crust.
  • Antipasto Misto had delicious quality meats served with bread is a meal in itself.
  • Mussels Marinara were succulent along with the sweet and spicy sauce.

Main Course

  • Ravioli La Posta was incredible…light and tasty like edible pillows of heaven with Porcini mushrooms and Speck.
  • Gnocchi with Gorgonzola were also yummy and light.
  • Linguine with clams was sheer perfection with sweet clams and a wine, butter and parsley sauce.

Dessert

  • We had to try the Cannoli because people rave about them and “they” were right. Sensuous cannoli cream inside of fresh, crisp shells.
  • Double espressos were smooth not bitter.

Considering all that we had, the quality of each dish, spot-on service, and atmosphere, I would say moderately expensive. We highly recommend this neighborhood place. It is also clean and they offer take-out.
