“Such an elegant place to dine. From the moment we arrived until we left, the service was outstanding, and everyone was so kind and so welcoming. It's quite the formal place but it also has a warm, relaxing feel to it. We decided to have steak for dinner, and it was such a beautiful cut of meat and cooked to perfection. The dessert was wonderful so creamy and rich tasting cheesecake. Even the coffee we had after dinner had a wonderful rich taste to it was just such a great place to go. It is on the pricey side but I think every once in a while you deserve to have an expensive meal. Thank you so much for a wonderful experience.“

“My husband and I had our wedding here in February 2024. It was exactly what we wanted and our family and friends were blown away. The staff were so helpful and made sure everything went smoothly. We loved all the food and the cocktail hour was awesome. Our guests are still talking about it. This was the first venue we ever saw and the second we walked in the venue we instantly knew it was the one and we did not look anywhere else. The venue is beautiful. We want to give a special thank you to the outstanding staff especially the bridal attendant and maître d'. We are so happy we picked il Tulipano for our wedding day it was one of the best decisions we ever made.Sincerely,Colleen & Davide“

“I really really really like this place. I ordered penne (a form of pasta) with butter alongside my family, and I love this place very much. The penne is beyond the term exquisite and the butter with it was amazing. I can only say the downside is the physical appearance and even then I like it. It's a little cramped and it's relatively hard to navigate when with a group even though the place is small, but I genuinely love this place very much. Overall on a scale of 1-10, I'm giving this a 9.7 due to the small inconvenience of small size it that's what happens when your located in a strip-mall. Thank you for your service and food!!“

We were seated in just a few minutes, Our waiter came with the drinks right away. The selection of wine is impressive. The food was good service was good atmosphere was very good. Definitely worth the dining experience.“

“We were in town for a funeral and after a couple of grueling days, wanted a bowl of "comfort food." Being vegan, I called Prime Pizza to ask if their tomato sauce had cheese and was assured it was vegan. I mentioned pasta primavera, which is not on their menu, and was told to please come in, they would create something for us. Our big bowl of pasta had very generous portions of fresh broccoli, mushrooms and carrots. The sauce was flavorful and delicious and the veggies were perfect. It was just what we had hoped to find. Owners/employees---the staff--couldn't have been kinder. Highly recommended!! Oh, and Sinatra playing in the background was great!Dietary restrictions: Great vegan pasta primavera (custom-made on request).“

“The service at Locanda Vecchia is very good. We arrived a little early, but we were accommodated readily. Our waitress was friendly and prompt. It was a pleasure to have her as our waitress. My Verde salad was good. Nice glass of sauvenon blanc was delightful. Our dinners took a little while to arrive. It was a busy night there. The food was great. We enjoyed ourselves and hope to return.“

“So glad there is a Singa's near us - pizza is always great. They are generous with toppings and even offer a "half cooked" option so you can finish cooking at home for a fresh pizza experience later. Owner/Staff are always pleasant too.“

“I ordered the chicken parm dinner and it was fantastic. This is one of the best chicken parm’s I think I’ve ever had. Thin chicken cutlets that are pan fried and crispy with the perfect amount of cheese melted on top. The sauce was great and the garlic bread was like nothing I’ve ever had before but it was very good. The best part was they delivered it to an address I’m parked at for the night with my tractor trailer.“

“We held my daughter’s baby shower at IL Palazzo and it exceeded our expectations. Nicole was very helpful through the planning process and Antonio and Lucy were exceptional the day of. We did a brunch and they offered a wonderful assortment of food. The cake is an add on which we highly recommend, it was delicious.“

“Amazing 5⭐️all the way!!! We walked into this place by accident but were greeted so warmly as if we were regulars. From the moment we stepped inside from our hostess Christine to the most kind accommodating, caring, wise, knowledgeable, young manager, Justin and ending with a fantastic waitress. They made us feel as if we were going out for a special occasion when it was just a last-minute walked into the wrong place. Wow they blew us away. The food was fantastic. The service was fantastic very rare to really get your moneys worth all around, don’t walk run to this place. Make a reservation because you don’t want to miss out thank you to the whole staff. I felt like I was celebrating an anniversary or something.Ari & Paul Bagari“

“Let's rally around the Paradise Restaurant! Remember Tuscany? Several former staff are there, and a fantastic new chef! They're planning on expanding the bar into the large dining room! Great atmosphere, staff, and food! We had the eggplant parm and chicken franchaise and it was top notch! Calamari was tender and crispy! Beer and wine selection was very good as well!“

“Great food and strong drinks! Calamari was cooked well, and the garlic bread that came with it as an appetizer was cooked perfectly crispy. The pizza was dense and filling. I could see the rest of their food being great and would definitely go back. Overall, I give Reservoir Tavern a 4.5 out 5.“

“I found my new favorite bakery! I was in the area craving a pastry and found this on google, did not disappoint!

I'm upset I didn't leave with more, a hidden gem and a must try!“

The food is definitely crafted with love and that is apparent. I will be ordering daily from today forth. Thank you Pizza City! “

“I recently visited this amazing deli on a trip to visit my daughter at Columbia University. First, the staff was very welcoming and so very friendly. The food was amazing. I got the triple decker turkey club and it was literally the freshest club I've ever eaten. This establishment represents everything a 5 start small buisness should represent. I also visited IL Panino PIzzaria beside it and the pizza was absolutely delicious. This will be my go to stop when visiting NYC.“

“I had the gnocchi and it was absolutely AMAZING! Not only that, but I saw that they had cheesecake so I tried a slice and can I just say, I was in HEAVEN!

Francesca made us feel as if we were dining at my home town in Italy and the food was amazing. She is the best. Most experienced waitresses in the industry. Would recommend Axton's to anyone.

That angel hair ? sent me to heaven.“

“TJ's is underrated and should be congratulated for their customer service and attention to detail. Made an order the other day and the manager/owner called back to confirm a part of the order that was a specific request. Food came on time and was hot and delicious. I've ordered from multiple pizza restaurants in the West Milford area and have been disappointed with the lack of service, forgetting a topping, missing part of an order. TJ's just confirmed my feelings and are my go to pizza place in town. Friendly, great service, great food at a great price. Bon appetit!“

“Just passing through on a road trip. As a former Jersey resident, the slices were perfect— crisp on the bottom, slightly chewy, cheese stretchy but not falling off the slice. Far better than any slice we could get in PA. A solid choice, served with a smile and for fair prices.“

Everything came out quick and staff was friendly, definitely recommend checking out!“

“I’m writing this for my father.He was craving Mott Street NYC shrimp and calamari but didn’t feel like going to the City. He was in the area and decided to give this place a try. He was very impressed and said it was just as good if not better than Little Italy! It wasn’t exactly on the menu but they still went out of the way to accommodate him-biscuits and all! He also said the people were very friendly. Can’t wait to try Michel Angelo’s too!-From Tom Fico of New Jersey“
