La Scacciata attracts broad praise for authentic Sicilian sandwiches built on house made focaccia that’s crispy on the outside and soft inside, with crowd favorites like Milanese, porchetta, Parma and Agrigento and ingredients shipped from Italy that elevate the fillings; the bread and arancini are often highlighted as standout, and real gelato imported from Italy is noted by some as a nice bonus. The atmosphere is described as warm, cozy, and welcoming, with friendly staff and a family vibe, plus an outdoor terrace that’s great in summer. Service can be slow or uneven at times according to a few reviews, but many describe attentive and caring service that makes guests feel at home. Coffee and drinks are generally good, though one comment mentions espresso being a touch acidic, while pizza is seen as solid but not always exceptional and sometimes pricey for the portion. Overall, La Scacciata is viewed as a must try for those seeking fresh, flavorful Italian sandwiches and homemade bread, a neighborhood favorite for casual lunches or meals with friends, with many returning for the variety of sandwiches, arancini, pasta and desserts.
Je suis venu durant la journée un jour de semaine avec ma fille pour venir voir ce qui avait remplacé l'ancienne boulangerie. Je n'ai pas été déçu! L'ambiance est chaleureuse. J'ai bien aimé la déco. Le service est impeccable. J'ai eu toute un accueil pour ma première visite. La sandwich que j'ai commandé (la marsala) était délicieux. Je recommande fortement d'y aller essayer.

What a cute gem! Newly opened, owner is very friendly & welcoming. The interior is very cute. They have a selection of pizzas & sandwiches that are a must try! Definitely recommended.
Absolutely loved our first & definitely not last visit here! The owner Pino is truly so passionate about his place. He was the kindest ever to our daughter & made us feel so welcomed! The pizza is flaky & light, the gnocchi's pillowy, tiramisu delightful. 10/10 recommend
Un super petit café/resto italien. La nourriture est super bonne & les gens qui y travaillent sont chaleureux & accueillants! Très agréable. Nous allons certainement y retourner quand nous serons dans le coin & le recommander à notre entourage 👌🏻
