We don't get out of the suburbs too often but were going to the Walnut St. Theater and needed someplace close. Read some old reviews and tried to move to another restaurant but they were closed due to a private party. Thank God! The food at La Scala was excellent. There were 4 of us and we had the mussels (excellent red wine sauce), the bruchetta (creative and tasty) and the chopped salad that was HUGE and delicious. I had a special, the Trio Seafood, with abundant scallops, a lobster tail and lobster ravioli. It was wonderful. My tablemates LOVED their dinner. Our waitress was unobtrusive and yes, they did try to remove the plates too soon but we did tell them we were going to the theater. Nice atmosphere. Really a pleasant treat and will absolutely make the long trip into town to eat here again.
