I went there for lunch with my brothers. The food was incredibly fresh and delicious, and the service was excellent. Keep up the excellent work!

My future daughter's-in-law bridal shower was at Lina's. Great staff, delicious food and fun atmosphere!

Older style local Italian restaurant with very well made food options and a full bar. Easy parking in back. Despite staff shortages service was excellent and the food came out quickly. A little bit pricey though but not more than other places in the vicinity.

While the food came out fresh, piping hot & delicious, I don't think I'll return due to what I encountered. Wednesdays happen to be half off your check (if you pay cash) but that wasn't a concern of mine. What got my attention was how for 2 adults and a child w/ no apps alcohol or desert how my bill came to almost $150 before the half off?! I knew something wasn't right & I recalculated it, & can clearly see an error. Our food w/ tax & tip (which they add on but not a problem) only should have been $121 total before the 50% off. I showed the waiter & he replied he must have made a mistake & adjusted it. All that was appreciated & maybe it was an honest mistake but it really just left me feeling like this wasn't the first time it happened since they don't use a computer system for their billing.

Great tasting food, the owner's hospitality is amazing! makes you feel right at home! Great for special private events.

It is with great reluctance that I leave this review. I really wanted to like this place.Ordered the bolognese. Instead I was brought a spagetti sauce which was mostly a lackluster canned quality level tomato sauce with a small smattering of ground beef. Certainly not a bolognese.When bringing this concern up to the waiter, he made the excuse that the regular chef was not there that evening. However, he offered no resolution, nor did he bring it up to the owner.Being a bit surprised, I decided to take the initiative myself and approach the owner with my concern. She said that she would make an adjustment to my bill which totaled $48.After waiting for approximately ten minutes, the waiter returned with an amended bill. Needless to say it was a gratuitous adjustment of two dollars, bringing the bill down to $46.26.The rigatoni bolognese is one of my favorite pasta dishes and at the price point of $23 at Lina's, one would expect the quality to be commensurate to price. This is certainly not the case here.The first doubt was raised when the waiter offered me Kraft style parmesan from a bowl rather than fresh grated.The menu offered a specials page without pricing from which I ordered the watermelon salad. Although it was good, I was surprised that it cost $17 dollars.At these price points one would undoubtedly expect an overall higher end fine dining experience from an establishment. Disappointing.

Met 3 friends for a birthday dinner. The food was better than delicious. We had the stuffed flounder and chicken parm. The service was excellent and the atmosphere was friendly and surprisingly quiet.

One of the worst Italian restaurants in the state of NJ. The chicken Parm was dried out and had barely any cheese on it. The fettuccine ala Lina was so salty it was inedible. It took over and hour and a half for us to get our food and it was terrible. Plus they had a mediocre singer accosting the patrons while they tried to eat. It was one of the worst dining experiences of my life.

This place is rigid. Service was excellent and fast! The people there were very nice. Everything we ordered was delicious. Their red tomato sauce is the best from their menu. Whatever with their red sauce was super good! Only one missing star is the interior design which needs a bit of updates.
We just had a luncheon with friend and family after our daughters baptism. Their setting is fantastic for groups! Pricing was great. The staff is very kind and courteous and obviously love what they do. Every single person in attendance said they absolutely loved their meal. I thought to myself that that never happens. Local family owned restaurants are the backbone of our towns. Don’t just go because you’d like to support them tho, go because they are great!

Linas is probably my favorite restaurant in NJ. People are wonderful, and the food is OUTSTANDING!! Lina and Sal make us feel like family every single time we walk in. Wade, the bartender, such a great guy and so pleasant to chat with while he makes awesome drinks. Phenomenal!

I saw an advertisement for Easter Buffet for $34.95 a person & $16.95 for kids so I made reservations. When we got there it was a special holiday menu that was seriously jacked up in price. We were never told of this until we got there Our table had 2 drinks each we had 4 adults 2 kids & the alcohol bill was over $100! Gif only knows how much the kids got charged for their root beer. That is absurd. I have never been to a restaurant where drinks are that much. Our total bill was $344! My kids got penne vodka which should have been kids portion but no we were still $26 a plate. If I knew it was not a buffet & a holiday menuI that was seriously jacked up I would have never made reservations. I was very disappointed.

I had a very nice weeknight dinner here. It's a cozy spot where the service is so friendly, and the food is both good and affordable relative to the portion size (one can easily get 2 or 3 meals out of an entree). Would happily come again, the chicken franchese was excellent.

This is a great place for traditional Italian The zuppa de peche was amazing and was a huge serving. We had it with the fra divaolo sauce and was enough for 2 meals! On Friday you get half off if you pay cash. Give it a try!
