trees, La Finestra is a as out of the way as you
can get in downtown Lafayette. This Italian eatery
offers a pleasant atmosphere and a variety of
Sicilian-influenced dishes at very reasonable
prices. The menu opts for reliability over
flashiness, with fresh pastas cooked with grilled
chicken, fish, and vegetables. Heartier entr'ees
include a marinated, flame-grilled pork chop
stuffed with provolone cheese and prosciutto and
jumbo prawns sauteed in spicy sauce.
