La Scala Ristorante

Authentic Italian cooking at it's best! La Scala continues to be the perfect place to celebrate and Situated in Downtown St.

Catharines in an 1850's era building on 9 Queen Street. It was magnificently restored by owner Joe Marchese, in March 2014 to welcome his guests in an elegant bistro setting. The Marchese family takes exceptional pride in their food and hospitality. Their unique take on authentic Tuscan recipes is what has created La Scala’s loyal following. The balance between rustic and modern can also be found

It is with great sadness that we at La Scala are having to finally close our doors at 9 Queen St. in St. Catharines.

New building ownership has dictated that we leave our premises at the end of November. To allow for the new development, our last day of service will be Saturday November 3rd, 2018.

We would like to thank our fantastic family of guests who have made us your favourite spot, your special place, and your home away from home. Your faithful patronage has made it a pleasure to serve you and your loved ones. Joe Marchese, owner of La Scala since opening 15 years ago on Church Street, is grateful for all of the support and loyalty our guests have provided. He will be moving on to another venture in Virgil, ON, and invites you to join him once he has successfully launches the “Twisted Vine”.

We hope to hear and/or see you over the next few weeks. Any current gift cards will be honoured at the Twisted Vine, but only for 6 months after, once it has opened.

Again, we would like to extend our thanks and appreciation for all the splendid memories and experiences here at La Scala. We look forward to seeing what the next chapter will bring.

- Sincerely, Joe Marchese & Sarah Pow, La Scala Ristorante
