50 Best Italian Restaurants near Crosswicks

“Been going here since the beginning. Pizza quality has gone downhill and now the staff is rude. Never again.“

“If you are looking for a family based excellent restaurant this is your place. Iccara has been in business for as long as I can remember. Their food is outstanding, the atmosphere on point. Most importantly the family are awesome! If you've never been you are missing out on a true gem! Now I'm hungry lol!!“

“The food has always been good here, but our waitress last night was above and beyond. It was packed but she never let more than a few minutes pass to check on us. In our rush to leave, we forgot to grab our leftovers and she ran to the parking lot to catch us! Mackenzie is a huge asset to your business and her service is truly appreciated, thank you!“

“Hands down Gio’s deserves a five out of five stars. It is how a local family owned business should be run. They care about their regular customers, but everyone gets five star service and quality. The first time I ordered from them, I compared all the prices of all local Italian Pizzerias, For my son‘s birthday party (I’m a single mom). Their prices couldn’t be beat. Since I’ve tried their food, The quality and consistency of quality prove to be top-notch. I’ve lived in New Egypt for over 30yrs and seen places Come and go. I hope Gio’s isn’t one of them.“

“Absolutely amazing food. Superb service by Miguel F“

“great family owned business with good food and interesting weekend specials“

“Stopped for lunch with hubs and friends. We we're looking to share a pizza, this is NOT that place. Yes, personal size for dine in. We opted for sandwiches. 2 ordered the roast pork, broccoli rabe, sharp provolone and both finished and raved how delicious 😋 Other 2 of us ordered the cheesesteak with LTO, red wine vinegar and olive oil, I added light mayo. The rolls these sandwiches were served were fantastic 😋 The sammies were NOT "packed" with fillings like a cheesesteak joint. Nicely presented with homemade potato chips. Quality of ingredients is huge because I can't eat a lot. The red wine vinegar and olive oil was top notch. I use red wine vinegar almost daily 😋 I would definitely go back for the same meal, about 1hr from my home and worth the trip 😋“

“We had our Thanksgiving dinner and everything was great. I look forward to additional gatherings in the future.“

“Excellent service by Jason and awesome food“

“First time dining at diamonds. Everything was absolutely delicious. The fried calamari had some spicy hot peppers in it with a marinara sauce. It was so good my husband had his favorite chicken Parmesan with Bolognese sauce super scrumptious, and I had the beef Wellington with pasta. it was absolutely outstanding. We will definitely be back . Thank you so much for a wonderful experience.“

“Wow! What a perfect meal for my Italian friend and I. Service was excellent and the food was absolutely delicious! We got the Broccoli Rabe Sausage app and the Mussels and Clams Fra Diablo. She got a pan fried Soft Crab special and I got my favorite Eggplant Parmesan. We took dessert home but are too full to eat it. Highly recommend! Great vibes inside and BYOB.“

“We had an absolutely wonderful evening at Tuscano in Bordentown with friends. From the moment we arrived, everything was perfect. We had a reservation and our table was already set and waiting for us — and it turned out to be a great table, which immediately set the tone for the night. Our server was fantastic: super friendly, attentive, and incredibly knowledgeable about the menu. They made great recommendations and made the whole experience feel relaxed and welcoming. We started with a round of drinks that were excellent, followed by a few appetizers for the table. The calamari was hands-down the best I've ever had — perfectly cooked, light, and full of flavor. For dinner, we had the chicken francaise, the NY strip, a side of pasta, and asparagus, and every dish was outstanding. Everything was cooked perfectly and beautifully presented — truly restaurant-quality in every sense. We finished the night with incredible desserts that were the perfect way to end an already amazing meal. What really stood out was that we never once felt rushed. It felt like a true dining experience, not just “going out to eat.” A genuinely 5-star experience from start to finish. We can't wait to come back again!“

“Call ahead or dine in. Either is preferred.“

“Don't let this place fool you. It may not look like much from the outside. The pizza is excellent. Have even had a number of family events there over the years and it was great every time. Was there tonight and will certainly be back. They put their $ into the quality of the food rather than the ambiance. Place is clean and the owner and staff are friendly. Rates 10 Stars if possible. Reminds me of Pizza places I would frequent with my friends back in the early 70s“

“You will always see this place full of happy returning patrons and we are two of them. Food quality is fresh, tasty and reasonably priced. You have to try their Brick Oven pizzas. If you crave an American cheese hoagie, that is prepared on the best tasting roll in New Jersey, delicious cheese, and crisp lettuce and onions, try one of theirs. The very best that we have ever judged.“

“Robert and his staff made my son's 35th Birthday Celebration very special. We had 30 people for dinner at Leonardo's on October 24, 2025, all of them were very pleased with the food, service and atmosphere for my sons 35th Birthday Celebration. Our menu consisted of Penne Marinara, Farfalle Vodka, Chicken Parmesan and a Caesar Salad. All would recommend Leonardo's when dining due to the taste and the service of the staff at Leonardo's. The pasta just melted in mouth and could taste the chesses, or the sauces on the pasta. There was more than enough food for all. The Caesar Salad was a blend of crisp, creamy, tangy and savory favors working together to achieve a satisfying balance. All in All the evening was perfect, and I will be coming back to Leonardo's for future celebrations.“

“Huge shoutout to Angelo’s tonight. Only wish I would’ve remembered my server’s name, to give her extra recognition here. We went out for an important dinner tonight. We were celebrating something small, but meaningful. When we called they had no reservations available for the evening, but then called us back and squeezed us in at 4:30. The power went out in the entire city after we were served our first course. We were served our entrees in the dark, with the same elegance, as of nothing had occurred. Even with the unfortunate circumstances, we were treated like royalty by the entire staff, and had an exceptional dining experience. I will be dreaming of the escarole, until I have it again. Thank you Angelo’s! Great job! 👏🏽“

I would have never tried it because I really didn’t like one thing any of the times I went before. I will DEFINITELY be going back. A LOT. This is a good and bad thing. Did I mention PUPUSAS??????!“
