Very awesome food and atmosphere. Great take on grilled okra and zuchinni. Menu changes so don't get wed to one item. Bread and butter are to die for. Reasonable prices. Fantastic service and location. What a gem

This is one of the best restaurants in town!
I have been there 5 times and each and every time it has been delicious.
All the pasta, the bread and the cheese are made from scratch in house.
It's so flavorful and so fresh it's incredible!
If you haven't tried yet, you must get there...

We had a wonderful meal last night with several memorable dishes. The roasted carrots with pistachio butter were incredible, especially the deep purple variety. Best carrots ever! Fried rabbit was completely delicious. Everything was tasty, and presented in a beautiful way. We are from the NYC area where you can also find such elegant food at thrice the price.

We can't wait to return soon!

Nothing out of the ordinary here, just another fantastic 5-star experience. My wife and I took my parents to L'Oca d'Oro this past Saturday morning to welcome them to town. We started off with coffees around the table (fantastic), and a shared a bostock. We then had cocktails (the Bloody Bartolo was amazingly fresh and unlike any bloody mary-esque drink I've encountered).

The table then had the Porchetta Hash, Broxton Burger, Garlic Sausage and Spaghetti Cacio e Pepe. All of these dishes were absolutely sublime! We each shared a bite of the other's dish but kept he rest for ourselves! There was a table of cleaned plates and happy customers.

Huge bonus points:

3 of us added eggs to our dishes. One poached, one fried, and one over-medium. They were all perfectly executed.

The prices were extremely reasonable for the quality of food. And, again, their pasta is out of this world good. If you normally don't think Italian for brunch, change that this weekend and get to L'oca d'Oro.

4.5. A stunning, gorgeous, bright, vibrant spot in the heart of Mueller with an amazing Italian brunch!

The vibes here are on point! Staff are attentive, mild, and have stellar recommendations!

We started off with a cup of drip coffee and white wine ON TAP!

I wanted to order everything on the menu including the cocktails, but we settled in on the Merguez Sausage and Full Italian for brunch.

The Merguez Sausage with polenta and greens was rich and vibrant. Exceptionally creamy! The greens just by themselves were fresh, clean and flavorful.

The full Italian was a gorgeous plate! The bacon was crispy, the ham was flavorful and thinly shaved, the soft boiled eggs were the prettiest and tastiest eggs I've ever had, the peppers were tender and juicy and the greens were sooooooooo fresh and vivacious.

You've gotta hit up this spot for brunch. We will be back for dinner soon since they make their own pasta and fernet!
