We love L’uva! It offers our quaint town a big-city, sophisticated vibe without being formal. Delicious food, delightful cocktails and great wine selections make it a great escape. The acoustics are the only issue, making conversations difficult on busy nights. Overall, a fantastic dining experience!

We always enjoy our time at L’uva. The only down side is there is a time limit due to reservations and tables so it is not a place to sit and visit with your friends. We know that going in so we plan accordingly but it’s hard to relax when watching the clock to not over stay.

This is the best place in town to eat. From the charcuterie boards to the fig and prosciutto flat bread to the tamales and everything in between, you can’t miss. The wine selection is great and so is the atmosphere.

Great place! Would like to see a better quality of charcuterie board- simple mozzarella and cheddar cheese with bland crackers don’t pair well with the amazing wine options. Perhaps cheeses that are soft like Brie with ones that are strong like Gorgonzola

Food was tasty and came out in a timely manner, service was great, wine selection was great (please never get rid of pizza and pasta red wine). But I didn’t love basically being asked to leave so someone else could have our table after an hour and a half. I’m not sure it was accidentally overbooked or what but we felt rushed out and we definitely would have kept spending more money. We ordered a bottle, a glass, a charcuterie, and a flatbread and definitely would have kept going if we weren’t asked to leave. Instead we took our business down the road to the guestroom where we ordered more food and drinks.

Ambiance was very good. The ratio of foods on the mediterranean platter was a bit off. Only a few pieces of bread for everything else including hummus, oil and vinegar, and cheeses. The drinks were excellent. Service was ok

Most of the wines we asked for on the menu were sold out (noting this was the April 2026 menu, so it had been released 8 days before our reservation). Also it would be great if customers could be notified ahead of time when the kitchen closes, because we wanted to order desserts but were told the kitchen had already closed.

The food and drinks were great. But apparently you were short staffed, and our poor waiter was overwhelmed. He did a great job, but my sandwich didn’t arrive until about an hour after my party received theirs. I’m not sure what happened. I was comped my meal and given a complimentary glass of wine, so all worked out as far as I am concerned.

I brought a friend with me to Luva because she had not been before! It is my go to place to grab a nice cocktail and food and catch up with my girlfriends. I made a reservation for 6pm on Thursday since live music would be going on. When we arrived a few minutes before 6pm, there was a retirement party going on. It was very loud and kind of awkward to have people standing up all around mingling. I love this place so much for the intimate setting it provides. My only suggestion would be to block reservation for the time of events. I would have much preferred to arrive later in the evening and not been there for the event going on.
