What User doesn't like about L'arco:
the food was excellent. what kept me from giving him 5 stars was the fact that they needed 11/2 hours to serve our food. in the meantime, tables that were sitting after us had already eaten. lack of help seemed to be the chief debtor. View all feedback. What User likes about L'arco:
good value and decent service all while juggling the challenges of staffing shortages. They did an admirable job of serving our large party, all whilst keeping service flowing to other tables. View all feedback.

L'Arco Italian Restaurant offers a mixed dining experience, with some finding the food and service lacking, while others rave about the vegetarian options and stellar customer service. The atmosphere is pleasant, though some feel it lacks ambiance. Prices are on the high side for the quality received, with some diners feeling disappointed in the value. Overall, the restaurant seems to have a lot of potential, but consistency in quality and service may be lacking. If you're in the area and craving Italian cuisine, it may be worth giving L'Arco a try, especially if you're a vegetarian.

Amazing food for an amazing price! Hand made pasta for €20?! Caprese salad was delicious, and mushroom risolto divine. Many vegetarian options.
