Excellent cocktails and the salmon dish was divine. I fusilli texture was not what I wanted with lamb, but the flavor was really good. I would've preferred shredded parmesan vs the granular and not have it be already added to fusilli as well. Will be coming here again!  Features: No COVID practices

We absolutely love this place!!! It's some of the best Italian food in the area. It's very modern and the dishes were very well made. Staff was very skilled and nice and there's a lot of variety. They also have a full bar with inside and outdoor seating. During the day you can also go to their coffee stand and sit and work on your computer. It's right downtown next to the college as well. We've been back several times since and will continue to go.  Vegetarian options: They can make almost anything vegetarian.

Beautiful atmosphere. Some of the food was good but as for my experience, the rigatoni had a hint of goat cheese taste I always gag at the goat cheese taste and that was happening. The sauce tasted bad. I tasted my husbands gnocchi and the sauce was great. He also says the gnocchi was good. A bit pricy for what you get. You can tell they’re trying though and it’s clean from what I can see.

I really wanted to like this place but walking in at 7:15 to find only 2 other parties set the vibe.  First, our server was terrific.  Personable, friendly, and kind.  The appetizer, pork belly, was delicious.  Unfortunately, the rest was not.  Ricotta gnocchi was overly firm and the sauce uninspired.  The rigatoni was, in my opinion, a couple of minutes shy of al dented and the sauce and protein, meh.  What really hurt this place was time of service.  I enjoy a relaxed atmosphere but 20 minutes for the appetizer to arrive was just too much.  15 minutes after the 1st course was cleared, dinner arrived.  Then, half way through my meal, 25 minutes I enjoy a relaxed pace, the wine I ordered upon food delivery finally arrived.  Keep in mind the were now a total of 4 groups in the restaurant.  25 minutes for a glass of wine.  Shameful.  I generally like to give a restaurant a 2nd chance before writing a review.  Sadly, I will not return.

We stopped in for an impromptu lunch. Great pub like atmosphere and friendly bartender, although I thought the overhead music was a little loud.  Surprisingly the calamari we ordered had jalapenos in it, I have never had it served this way and we absolutely loved it. It was crispy, salty, and spicy. The aioli sauce was very good too.  We also ordered the Chicken flat bread and Chicken fettuccine. The chicken on the flat bread was very flavor ful, but I personally didn't care for the big chunks of tomatoes, but my wife really enjoyed it. The chicken and mushroom fettuccine was creamy and we'll balanced.  This was a great little lunch spot and worth coming back to try other menu items.

Great tasting coffee.  The young man barista gave information about flavor mixtures with flavor beans and tones as well as how they're harvested that I never knew.Food: 5/5

This review is based on the food, drinks and my coworkers comments. The service was NOT good. It was SLOOOOOOOW . Food AMAZING! Drinks STRONG & AMAZING! My coworkers were very happy with their food. I had the Rigatoni sausage & beef....... DELICIOUS .  You should give it a try if ever in Ames. My drinks were French 75 & Margarita. NICE!!! You're boy The RIBOLOGIST IS OUT

Bar la Tosca is a great restaurant to check out in Ames downtown. Their cocktails are wonderful, the atmosphere is relaxed, and the food is always wonderful. The prices are great and it’s easy for anyone to find something they can enjoy.  It’s a spot suitable for dates or meet ups with friends, probably not a restaurant for little kids though as the food is a little more geared toward an adult palette with more complex flavors that some kids might not enjoy.  Highly recommend to anyone looking for a quality meal in a cozy place with great staff and unique, well crafted dishes.

Stopped at Bar La Tosca for breakfast.  The ham egg and gruyere croissant was great, and the berry marscopone crepe was good as well. The service was exceptional.

WOW! I just fell in love with a new family friendly fancy place! Casual or Fancy... take your pick! You can have it all here! Went here for Father's Day!! And oh my...!!!! YES! Service was normal. Food was great! And I think I know where I'll be going now for all my healthy eating!! The items on this menu are so optional!!! And perfect! This place is GREAT guys!!!!!
