Laughing Cat (Closed Permanently)

(7 Ratings)
Homeade Italian
The Laughing Cat is casual, comfy and well rounded in its take on Italian food. What better way to spend an evening with friends than with an excellent wine, friendly server, and piping hot bowl of pappardelle with seasonal veggies?

Great food, friendliest service

Where else can you get a spectacular Grouper special? My server, Sue, was a gem. Friendly and intuitive, she made the whole evening special. Every aspect of the food was wonderful. This place is a keeper.

small and fresh, and well checking out.

Don't let it size fool you, great food, and freshly prepared...it isn't on 7th Ave, but on 8th and 15th, the off-the-beaten path...I say it a great alternative to the frenzy of the "pub style" places, or the Columbia. Prices are somewhat better than the other two major italian places. (4/7/11 - rumor has it, the owner is expanding nextdoor to have french cuisine added) they have lunch-buffet.

Yum!

Small place but the food is great! On a summer night it can get hot in there with a full restaurant and the kitchen going full force.
