Scola's - Dracut

The seafood ravioli is my favorite dish of all time. The conundrum white wine is also delicious. Vanessa has been my waiter a few times and she is attentive and super sweet!

We used to go to Scolas years ago and loved it. Then it got sold to new ownership and every time we went we were told we had to sit on the bar side which was very noisy, so we left. We thought we would try again. When we drove it, we thought it was wierd people were sitting at tables along the windows with no covering, so when you pulled in, your headlights were blinding them. We walked in, we noticed it was completely remodeled. Very cheery and inviting. We were told to take any seat we liked. Sat down and waiter came over for drinks. The waiter also brought their famous Scala bread and oil for dipping. My husband wanted the baked haddock as he loved it years ago. He asked for baked or mashed potato but they didn't have either. I got Chicken Piccata. Dinners came and mine was Ok but reminded me of a jarred sauce. My husbands fish was nothing like it used to be. Piece of very small and dry lonely haddock and a small dish of pasta $22.99. As we were waiting, I googled it and found that a new owner had recently purchased the restaurant. It was OK all in all but probably nothing I would go back for. The three stars are not necessarily for the food, but for ambiance and service.

My husband loved his Basil Salmon, however, the Veal Parm was more cheese than veal. service was not that great either. Forgot leftovers and went back right away and they were gone.

Jenn was our bartender/server and i was very impressed. She was very personable and efficient. She makes a fantastic martini and G&T. She handled multiple people with such ease. I never felt neglected. 10/10 will be back. Didn't take any photos because the food was so good i didn't think of taking out my phone just shoving it my face.

Honestly the food was good (when it finally came) but everything else at this business is unraveling. Friends suggested we meet at Scolas in Dracut for dinner recently. I hadn't been in a long while and was not very impressed during my last visit but we agreed anyway. Our friends had the table already when we arrived so there was no wait but we were seated in the back room which has a tired, stale appearance now. Our server, although very nice, left us without so much as a hello for 15 minutes. Drinks and food were very slow and 2 of our meals came out wrong. I was promised a drink that after several visits to the table still seemed to evade us. The whole meal took over 2+ hours. I will say the food was fair. I would recommend you make a take out order.
