La Scala Restaurant

Have a dinner party and order their takeaways. Then dont tell the guests and pass it off as your own, simply the best takeaway meals in Beverley and the restaurant food is very good with good prices too

My wife and I visit La Scala quite a bit. The food is invariably spot on but, for a family Italian restaurant is VERY expensive. The soup is the cheapest dish, and at £5.95 thats very expensive, you can get a good home made soup for £3 and something elsewhere. Service is pretty good, always Italian and often a bit arrogant, but they do know what they are doing and get you in and out quickly.
The place itself is very plain and not very warm. the worst aspect is the music — non stop opera, at too loud a level.
— but the food is excellent.
Beware kids on the car park, this is yobs area, and you can rely on having your car scratched.

I couldn’t fault the food here but several other aspects of the restaurant spoiled my last visit here.
I did not like having to order my food before I had even been shown to my table. This meant as soon we sat at our table the food was bang, straight in front of us. Whilst eating, after half a bottle of wine had been drunk, the remaining contents of the bottle was upended into my glass, along with shall I bring you another one? I don’t particularly like to be rushed like this and gave me the impression that this restaurant is only interested in getting the customers in and out of the restaurant ASAP.
So the food was OK but there was no atmosphere and I did not enjoy my last visit and will not return.

I was always put off by the non-​descript exteria off a public car park, and the smell of deep fat frying when you drive past. But I had cause to take some business customers for an early dinner, and picked Lascala on the recomendation of a friend.
The interia is bright and still non-​descript, but we found a warm welcome and attentive service. The tables were well set and it was good to be served by staff who know how to serve, (as opposed to alot of restaurants I eat in where it seems the waiting staff are inexperienced students paid to take orders and deliver food, rather than provide a pleasant eating experience.)
The menu contained a wide variety of classic Italian, from pizza to pasta to meat. Main course prices were slightly above ‘pub food’ prices, but reasonable for the standard of food. We all went for the Pasta, which came piping hot and fresh, with good (not huge) portions and fresh sauce. I was not dissapointed, and my customers commented on how good the food was.
Having had one good experience, I returned a week or so later for an impromtu meal with my wife. We were later in the evening, but we had called ahead to book a table for two. While not full, the restaurant was busy — mainly with families and groups celebrating one thing or another. Again the food and service was good, and we had a very pleasant meal.
This is probably not the place for a cosy romantic meal (too bright and open), but if you want a straight forward Italian restaurant with good food and great service, this will serve you very well.
