One of our favorite restaurants in the area, and that’s including Montclair. The atmosphere is elevated, modern, and has a beautiful ambiance. Something you might come across in the city. I’ve had the Chicken parm here several times and it never disappoints. Great red sauce, generous portion, and reasonably priced. My friends had the bronzino and chicken milanese which they both loved, and they are food critics! The staff is always friendly and attentive. We feel lucky to have such a gem in our neighborhood. Also be sure to try the amazing pastries and desserts from their sister bakery at Lady Fingers!
A real hidden gem. Best pork chop I’ve ever had. Fresh high quality ingredients and perfect balance of flavors. Appreciate that the owner came round and had a chat with us. Will definitely come back.

Wow huge disappointment. Been here several times before and everything was great. Specifically went back Sunday night forr my BD dinner. I was craving their eggplant parm whic last time was amazing. What happened here! The egglant was mire like a dried out reheated leftover flavorless casserole with NO SAUCE and NO MOZZERELLA. The top was plain the inside had dried out unflavored ricotta with tiny pcs of tomato bits. Horrible. My guys cod was a lackluster dish lacking presentation as well as any seasoning. A few sad stalks of broccoli were on the plate which he said tasted weird. He ordered a side of spaghetti with oil and garlic. What an insult. There was what appeared to be reheated spaghetti with NO oil and no garlic-not even a flavor of garlic or even cheese. Just reheated dried up pasta which previously had some butter but now was dry and tasteless. Ugh! I also ordered an app- they advertised as clams oreganato. $20.00. The clams in shell had no juice no flavor and dried out flavorless-except they were-and tasted burnt-dried up bread crumbs on top, which I pushed off and just ate the tasteless clam. When I finally got to the last insulting disg-the eggplant-I sent it back. Never saw or heard from the chef although there was only one other couple in the entire place all the time we were there. I seriously doubt there was one and that everything was reheated and not even good to begin with... Fannys-you are -or were better than this so not sure what happened here. I feel bad to leave this review but everything I said is true and if anything it was worse than I've described. I really just want to warn future customers maybe don't go on a Sunday. And to also alert management of this very poor experience that should never have happened. On the bright side the staff was great as was the young manager who was on that night. I regret not taking pics then you could really understand. I kid you not!

Phenomenal experience! We loved the Whipped Ricotta—so creamy and delicious—and the perfectly breaded Calamari. The Eggplant Parm and pork chop entrees were outstanding. Even our daughter’s spaghetti Alfredo was fresh and homemade. This place is a must-try!

The food was AMAZING and so fresh but the service … We visiting this location twice and both times the food was delicious. The pasta was fresh and the meat was tender. The inside of the restaurant is lux, dark, and aesthetic. But, we couldn’t decide what to order. I was debating between the salmon and chicken, I asked the waitress which she preferred and she said “it depends on what you’re in the mood for”…. That and she did not come to our table. She also didn’t know the menu and was unable to answer our questions. Other than the service, the owner/chef, food, and atmosphere was amazing. Everything was fresh and cooked to perfection. There is also a bakery attached,

Service is OK. Food is OK. Beautiful place. Overpriced for what you get. Not worth the trip. Espresso machine not working. Chicken parm is not top 20. My opinion. Zeppoles are NOT better than any feast. Like their menu says. Sorry. Not Sorry.
Great little hidden spot that probably has some of the best pasta in North Jersey!!!

Came here for dinner on a Tuesday night and was impressed. We didn’t have a reservation and we were seated immediately. Georgina was our server and she was amazing! She was super friendly, knowledgeable, and very detail oriented. She made the overall experience so much better. They have a very nice cocktail menu and I enjoyed the cocktails I ordered. For food I had the arancini, short rib ravioli, and chicken parm. The food was great, we cleared every plate. The restaurant itself is really beautifully decorated with a cute ambiance. This place is great for a date night or grabbing drinks with friends. Overall, I enjoyed my time here and will be back. An extra thanks to Georgina for her hospitality, it was greatly appreciated.

Where do I start. Service was 10/10! My family and I came Saturday night at 8PM and it was pretty packed, but the service was still great. Our server was amazing!!! I wish I wrote her name down! She was on top of it and suggested the BEST items on the menu!
Appetizers: Wagyu meatballs 10/10 Baked clams, I’m not really a fan of clams but wow the juice on the clams was so good 10/10 The bread was delicious by itself, but the side sip made it taste WOW! 10/10
Entrees: vodka pasta 10/10 definitely recommend this if you are a pasta lover Lobster Malfadine 8/10 for me. But my family loved it! I’m more of a vodka lover! And I’m not a fan of lobster. The blueberry steak, wow. I never thought blueberry and steak would be good, but this was delicious. I don’t even like blueberries.
I loveeeee Brussels sprouts and these were the best I have ever had!!! The roasted garlic yogurt at the bottom made it ten times better!
Dessert: Tiramisu 10/10 Limoncello Cheesecake 10/10 I am not a lemon type of girl, but this was a perfect combination, wasn’t super sweet either.
As far as the drinks, my family and I thought all the drinks were a bit too sweet for our liking. They were refreshing, but just too sweet for us.
Overall, I enjoyed this restaurant! Not only was the food delicious but the service was exceptional. The manager also came by the table to make sure everything came out perfect! With it being a busy Saturday night, food still came out hot, quick, and delicious! Definitely will be coming back.
