La Favorita - Dothan, Alabama

My husband and I went for my birthday on July 3rd. It was our first time visiting. Everything was absolutely amazing, from the staff to the food. Service was fast. The atmosphere was nice and subtle with low lighting and music playing. Our waitress had exceptional customer service skills and made great recommendations. We had rolls, fried ravioli with pink sauce, Eggplant Parmesan, Chicken Parmesan, and Limoncello Cake. All were superb. Thank you for making my special day even more amazing!

Had a great dining experience here. The chicken piccatta was excellent, had huge capers on it and the sauce was perfect. Calimari was fresh and perfectly done. The Italian cream cake was superb and delicious- just like mom used to make from scratch. My only gripe is that they don't serve limoncello. Also, it would be nice if olive oil was served along with the bread and not an upcharge.

First time visiting La FAVORITA today for lunch. I had Lasagna and my wife had Chicken Marsala. Absolutely superb food and service! Also, the aroma of the warm garlic bread!!! For dessert, the artful display of the Limoncello Cake and Cannoli was only surpassed by their tasteful flavors. Highly recommend and we will definitely revisit.

Nice new Italian restaurant located in a shopping plaza right of Montgomery near the circle. Clean restaurant with friendly staff. They play instrumental Italian music and have Italian scenic pictures displayed throughout the restaurant. There were several full tables when we arrived but did not have a wait to be seated. Small menu. They did just get their liquor license so they now sell wine and beer. After ordering our food was out quickly. I got the tour of Italy, it includes lasagna, chicken parmigiana, and fettuccine alfredo. The lasagna was great, chicken parm was good, but the alfredo sauce was thin and extremely bland. My husband got the veal parmigiana. He said it was good but the veal was a bit tough but the sauce was amazing. We both enjoyed the caesar salad and crème brûlée cheesecake with a coffee. The garlic rolls are also very soft and good. Lots of yummy looking desserts in the dessert fridge. Will definitely go back to try other plates.

I dont easily give 5 stars, but I believed this location deserved it! This location is good for a quick lunch or a nice dinner for date night.

From appetizers to desserts, all were cooked to perfection and had amazing taste.

Atmosphere was nice with the locations of Italy flashing on the screens with a perfect soundtrack in the background.

Only recommendation would be to remove the static photo displays and mount the tvs flat on the wall inside of picture frames to create a better esthetic with the rotating scenery displays. I think it would give a much cleaner appearance.

Also, maybe they have it and I should have asked, but freshly grated paremsian instead of the processed version in standard shakers would have been the chefs kiss on am overall pleasing experience.

If you haven’t tried this place go as soon as you can! What a great option for Italian food in Dothan. We had a table of 6 on Sunday night. Our waitress was so sweet and took great care of us. All of the pasta dishes were delicious, I don’t think you can go wrong here. Do yourself a favor and order a bowl of Alfredo sauce for your garlic knots. Don’t skip out on dessert; the Italian cream cake was a treat!

The food was delicious and my party of 6 ate almost everything we ordered, including dessert. The restaurant was clean, quiet, and played perfect music for the setting. The wait staff was a little unorganized with three different people trying to be our server. They did get it worked out, and our food was promptly delivered.

Will not ever bother with olive garden again..... this is a true Italian restaurant and will definitely be going back! Our waitress, Sarah was really helpful and outgoing! The food was on point!
