I have past by this restaurant many times throughout the years but never tried it until yesterday. My friends and I decided to have lunch at La Focaccia. As you walk in you are transported back in time with the decor and ambiance. It was pleasant. The complimentary flatbread and dipping oil was not expected but we enjoyed it more than bread from other places. Our group enjoyed a pepperoni calzone, pepperoni and spinach pizza, and chicken fettuccine.Each item had a beautiful presentation. My friends LOVED the calzone and pizza. They were both quite big, so they took the uneaten portions home. I had the chicken fettuccine Alfredo. The chicken and fettuccine were both cooked properly. The Alfredo sauce was not like anything I ever tasted. It had a more butterly and chicken stock taste. It was not the Alfredo sauce I was used to, but it was delicious.For dessert we shared (I should say demolished ) one slide of tiramisu. It was a little piece of heaven.Our waiter was very attentive and genuine. Our glasses were never empty and the experience is one we will repeat in the future.

Wonderful Italian food! Beef lasagna and grilled banana nut bread were excellent - definitely save room for dessert or get it to go.

I have to give La Focaccia an all around 5 Raviolis! An honest mistake was made with our reservation, however the staff went out of their way to accommodate our party of 15. From the Manager to the waiter staff, we were shown respect, compassion and provided top notch service. Our orders consisted of Spaghetti with meat sauce and meatballs, Fettuccine, Chicken Alfredo, Chicken Parmigiana, Chicken Marsala and Chicken w Lemon Butter Sauce, all dishes were superb! The restaurant's atmosphere was quaint and relaxing, and not once did we feel rushed to finish our meals, or encouraged to leave once we were done. A heartfelt gratitude to these amazing individuals! Thank you , Thank you , Thank you for making my husband's Birthday Dinner an enjoyable success.

This is a great Italian restaurant! I feel like it's a hidden gem... we had the mussels and they were delicious! The sauce was great and the garlic bread was nice and toasty! If I lived here I would come back with my family! We are foodies and love good food and great vibes!

What a weird experience it was coming here. We felt so uncomfortable we didn't even stay to eat. As soon as we walk up to the door, we almost hit the host since she was awkwardly standing at the door just starring out at us. As soon as we walk in, she doesn't even look up at us, just awkwardly grabs menus and starts walking us to the table with no eye contact whatsoever. The place smelled weird and looked very dirty. Our appetite quickly disappeared and we just decided it would be best to leave before we attempted to give this place a try.

Delicious, authentic Italian food in San Antonio, Texas! And obviously I'm one of the last people to know. When I got to La focaccia Italian Grill, the place was already filled with patrons. Everyone mid meal, sipping on red wine and enjoying their entrées. That was a huge reassurance for me. The wait staff was super helpful and nice. We were seated quickly. Inside they have booths and a wide open floor plan dining room. A gorgeous chandelier, right in the middle, setting the ambience of romance. It seems like a great place to go as a family and have a nice family style dining experience and also go for a romantic first date. I had the five layer lasagna and it was delicious. It was robust in flavor, cheesy and everything you would expect from a traditional lasagna. I also enjoyed their homemade in-house focaccia bread. I paired it with olive oil, seasonings and vinaigrette, and also sprinkled some Parmesan. At that point, I practically made my own little pizza. It was really good. my sister had the seafood stuffed cannoli and I didn't taste it but she seemed to enjoy it. The caesar salad was crispy and tossed and ample dressing. Very delicious. When I'm back in San Antonio, I would come back.

This was a very pleasant surprise. The food was amazing and fairly proportioned. We ordered the bruschetta as an appetizer and it was nothing but delicious. And all of our main courses were just as amazing. The restaurant itself was quiet with soft music in the background, but we also went at an earlier time. It wasn't too small either...perfect size for an intimate meal. And the waiters were very nice and welcoming. They started you off with water and you could order any other drink if you wanted to. And the food came out at a decent time. Even at the end of the meal, if you wanted to take leftovers, the waiter would pack up your food for you. Overall, I highly recommend this place if you want something small and exquisite.

To begin parking is a nightmare, you have to park on the street and there is virtually little to no street lighting. Very disappointing. Party of four for dinner. First the complimentary focaccia bread was cold, cracker thin and tasteless. Though they have a wide variety of wines, you were limited to only the house wine because they didn't have any other whites chilled. The toasted beef ravioli appetizer was cold, toasted too hard and had no seasoning. We had three different entrees; Penne alla Sicilians was warm at best and the pasta was lumped together, served with too little sauce to add flavor and the cheese was square slices of cheese that looked and tasted like it was kraft singles. I didn't dare ask my guest that had the Linguine with Clams and the Chicken La Focaccia how their meal tasted, but neither finished the meal nor asked to take the leftovers home. We all passed on dessert. Will not return and cannot recommend

The most bizarre experience I've ever had. The hostess refused to interact with me, it was weird. I had to ask her for a table.... The waitress was sweet but stressed and out of sorts, wine options limited. I ordered off the menu and she was confused by the clam linguine, took that as an air to read other reviews and was shocked, consistent bad reviews on the hostess, food and sanitation. Cockroaches and food poisoning.Promptly went to Battalion down the street which restored my faith in humanity.Do not go here unless dining with mortal enemies.

All I can say is this place is dying a long, slow death. Food is wayyy the hell overpriced. It doesn't come with a salad and the tea is $3.95. Get real! That's insane! There is no way in hell this place should still be in business. Just like their chicken which is tough, this place expired years ago!
