Cambridge is definitely not short in Italian restaurants but what it is in short of is Italian restaurants that do not belong to chains and are family-owned. This is where La Margherita comes in.
La Margherita is on Magdalene Street in Cambridge right near Magdalene College. I ate here when we were going to a wedding whose dinner started late.
The food was good, all of the people that were eating with us really enjoyed it. The service was great, they were very helpful in accommodating my allergies. The venue is nice and the location is good especially if you get a table near the window, you can watch the people walk by.
I am becoming a fan of independent owned shops and restaurants for many reasons. They generally utilize/boost the other local businesses. They take care of their employees better. Yes it sometimes costs a bit more but I can sleep better at night. Okay that is enough of me rattling on.
If you are in town and want Italian, not looking for the chains (because you can eat them anywhere), this is your place. You will not be dissappointed.
