“This is our favorite place… This is the side of meatballs and Ziti Norcina with homemade sausage. I have tried many different pasta dishes and love them all. It’s hard to choose when I get there. The service and staff are great. But the person that stands out to us, every time we go is Roy. He appreciates our business and is very friendly and outgoing. Every restaurant needs a Roy. Thanks, keep it up…“

“Outstanding, authentic Italian cuisine. Pete and staff are amazing. The food is always prepared perfectly 👌🏻 Also, the BYOB makes this restaurant very appealing. The pricing is very reasonable for the quality and quantity you're receiving. I've been a regular here for years and plan on being one for many years to come. FYI... homemade cannoli cake is insanely delicious! The Arancini, Fried Calamri etc... the best around... and do not skip the Broccoli Rabe'“

“Had my daughter’s bridal shower here Saturday. It was amazing. My friends all said it was one of the best bridal shower they have been to. A large selection of food and fabulous ambience. I highly recommend! You won’t be disappointed.😋“

“REALLY good food- service great.“

“The best pizza in NJ“

“From the moment we walked in, the host greeted us like old friends and walked us right to our table — I instantly had a good feeling, and I was right. Our server was awesome — super friendly, knew the menu inside out, and was on top of everything all night.

The menu is classic Italian but with a twist — way more interesting than your standard North Jersey Italian spot. The ossobuco was fantastic (if I had to nitpick, I’d say the risotto could’ve used a touch less water and a heavier hand with the parm). The clams were fresh and baked to perfection, and my son devoured his ravioli. For dessert, the bread pudding was absolutely unreal — honestly worth the trip alone.

Safe to say we’ll be regulars!“

“We live in Wanaque. First time here. So happy to have this great local restaurant for get togethers with friends. Loved the veal chop milanese. It was huge, and will be lunch tomorrow. We shared appetizers, and the zuchini fries were my favorite. Love the bright, white, open decor. Attentive service was just right.“

“We had a party of 12 for Christmas lunch today. The food was excellent and the service was phenomenal. We stayed for over 3 hours and never felt rushed. Wish I could remember our server’s name she was unbelievable tending to this motley crew. I will definitely be back if they let me in the door. Great place check it out you won’t be sorry.“

“We have recently eaten at Sear House a few times over the past three weeks. We have had the mussels in red sauce, Calamari, angry halibut, scallops w/ risotto and a T-bone steak. All of the dishes were well prepared, very tasty and the service was great. The manager is very friendly with a good sense of humor. Definitely worth going to. As a bonus their happy hour drinks and menu is excellent.“

“I highly recommend this restaurant. Service and food are excellent.“

“EVERYTHING was outstanding. That in a nut shell is putting it mildly!! Four of us went to dinner on a rainy, rainy Thursday night. You would think the restaurant would be empty because of the torrential rain,nope. They had a wonderful dinner crowd. We started with the stuffed or artichoke that was outstanding.Our entrees were Barramundi , two of us had lamb chops and the other Nino‘s pasta. Trying all three dinners I couldn’t tell you which I like the best. Yes, I can. It was my pasta that I haven’t had in years from them. Needless to say the service was outstanding we just miss seeing Amy. Don’t worry we’ll be back. SOON… ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Amazing food every time. I went last night with friends for dinner and had, what may just be the best pasta dish, I ever had... but you'll have to see for yourself. And the Eccola Martini is another fave. Cheers!“

“Grabbed dinner here this past Friday night with a friend. We had no reservation at about 6:30 and they were able to see this promptly. Our waiter was attentive and helpful. The atmosphere was nice without being stuffy. We both thought the food was excellent and the price for everything was reasonable. Will definitely be back.“

“Excellent food & service!“

“This is some of the best Italian food I have had in a very long time and it is honestly underpriced for the quality but that is how you know it is a good Italian place. We are visiting from out of town and I would recommend this for anyone looking for some amazing Italian food! Give this place a chance, you will not regret it!“

“Wow! Took us years to get here… but so glad we did! I’m an Italian originally from Queens who doesn’t much care to eat an Italian restaurant when I can get it home cooked. My better half, however, is a boy from Brooklyn, who is Italian by osmosis & loves to eat it out of the home. For his birthday we wanted to go somewhere special. We did! LuNello ranks up there as one of our favorite Italian Restaurants EVER… From the valet staff, to the maitre D, hostesses & waitstaff, to the ambiance… and the FOOD. There are basic dishes on the menu but so many interesting & varied plates that I was blown away! Everything we ate, from appys, to main courses, and dessert (famous bread pudding) were the best!“

“All the different meals I’ve had at Columbia Inn have been amazing! I’m never disappointed. Their pizza is amazing too!!!“

“I came here for my birthday dinner, and the service was honestly top notch. We felt well taken care of the entire time; our waiter was consistently attentive and made sure we had everything we needed. We started with the calamari, and the sauce was PHENOMENAL. Our meals were excellent, and we were really happy with our choice for dinner.“

“We had a wonderful Dinner at Novelli Restaurant in Wayne NJ yesterday celebrating my amazing Wife Karen's birthday. Food,service and ambiance was outstanding !“

“I and my whole family have been going here for the last 20 years. The food is consistently excellent the service is impeccable and his family are like my family.

I would always drive way out of my way if I had to to come to Bella Notte“

“This place is TOP SHELF. Went twice this past week and honestly feel there is NO place in the area that comes remotely close to this restaurant! I moved from Bergen County and until now, could not find that rare combination of quality food, CLEAN and attentive , personable staff. The seafood is AMAZING. I’ve heard some comments in reference to the owner….guess what…he’s doing a whole lot of right, maybe you just don’t know the difference.“

“I have LOVED Tony’s Pizza my entire life! Their pizza has remained consistent and unforgettably delicious! I grew up in Pompton Lakes and I have moved all over the country and have dated more pizza than I care to share 🤣 I swear to you there is no better sausage pie in the world better than Tony’s. I work and own a business in the food industry and I swear by this pizza and mussels. Whenever I am back in Jersey or when my peeps come to visit, they know I will be ordering several pies to freeze for when we are nostalgic and want a a GREAT PIE! I cannot recommend this Mom & Pop restaurant more. Thank you all for my latest haul! You are the BEST!!!!! 🌟 😉🌟🌟🌟🌟“
