We had a reservation for 5:30 PM, but unfortunately, the restaurant didn’t honor it, and all the guests with reservations had to wait between 30 to 60 minutes. The delay was so excessive that one group, which included a disabled adult, ended up leaving. Our food finally arrived after 8:00 PM, but it was just the appetizers. The quality was underwhelming and certainly not worth the long wait. To add to our frustration, around 8:00, we were informed that they had run out of one of our orders. By that time, there wasn't much left we could order without delaying things for the entire table even further. We didn’t receive any apologies or even a discount on our bill. I used to enjoy this restaura...
I am thoroughly disappointed with the lack of integrity shown by the owner of this restaurant. We visited for a gathering to honor a dear friend, and the food was simply awful. The shrimp were rubbery, reminiscent of a pool float. Moreover, we received barely enough sauce to share with our calamari, despite there being five or six of us at the table. I had to scrape the dish so much that I nearly chipped the paint off the bowl. To make matters worse, my water was served in a glass that still had lipstick on it from the previous customer. And in what’s supposed to be an Italian restaurant, there was no olive oil to be found. Fortunately, I remembered to spread butter on my bread myself, as we...
We had our first dining experience at this restaurant on New Year's Eve, opting for an early dinner based on a friend's recommendation. We kicked things off with the Eggplant Rollatini appetizer, which was fantastic. For my main course, I chose the Mushroom Risotto with Seafood, and it was exceptional. My wife ordered the shrimp cocktail and the shrimp Fra Diavolo; while the shrimp in the cocktail were on the smaller side, the main dish was absolutely delicious. The specials menu featured many enticing options that caught my eye. For dessert, we savored the chocolate mousse cake and cannoli, both of which were lovely. Despite the restaurant being busy, we never felt rushed to leave. Overall,...
The owner's attitude was extremely unpleasant and rude. He came off as arrogant and inconsiderate. I would highly recommend steering clear of this place. We dined here, and the owner assured us we would have the restaurant to ourselves, yet he let other customers in regardless. With a smug smile, he then overcharged us. When we expressed our concerns, he made a few adjustments to the bill but continued to argue with us. It was especially disheartening that he appeared to take advantage of a delicate situation. I will never support a business like this.

I dined at this restaurant over the weekend and had a wonderful experience. I started with the stuffed artichoke, which was exceptional, followed by the stuffed pork chop, which也 was equally impressive. For dessert, I enjoyed a Lemoncello cake paired with a fresh cup of coffee, and it was delightful. Mike has a talent for making you feel at home, and I should also mention that the air conditioning has been upgraded—it's fantastic!
The owner was very rude and provided misleading information about the prices of the items we ordered until we asked for an itemized receipt. It's not surprising that the reviews here appear so positive; after I wrote a detailed review of our experience yesterday, the owner actually paid to have it taken down. Unbelievable.
We visited this restaurant on Good Friday, just before Easter, and the fish was fresh and delicious. The eggplant parmesan was outstanding. The service was friendly and very professional, and the ambiance was welcoming. We're excited to return next week. I highly recommend this restaurant for its excellent cuisine.
The service was disappointing, and there was no valid reason for it. They kept saying that our order was "almost ready." It’s a shame because the restaurant has a lovely atmosphere and delicious food, but the service was really lacking. They need to improve their efficiency!

I had a really disappointing experience at this restaurant. The service was poor, and the owner was unkind. The shrimp didn't taste fresh, and the appetizers were bland. With so many fantastic Italian restaurants in New Jersey, I wouldn’t suggest wasting your time here.
