about
Our name
La Gioconda, the widely used name in Italy for Leonardo Da Vinci’s Monalisa, evokes the idea of utmost classic beauty. The legendary smile of the Monalisa has, also, forever spelled on the onlookers an aura of mysteriousness.
We thought it would be a name ,La Gioconda, that would best define our commitment to bring to the table a cuisine of classic Italian recipes and at the same time bring to our customers newer and more modern versions of the ever-evolving Italian culinary panorama.
Indeed from pastas to dessert you will experience at La Gioconda the same feeling of merriment that the Monalisa exudes through her beautiful smile.
A tavola.
