“Great food, excellent service from Dennis Yusko in coordinating our catered party!“

“Amazing food, some of the best people I’ve ever met. Kind, generous, attentive. Family oriented and friendly. Try the shrimp scampi or the cheesesteaks and cheese fries!“

“As someone who grew up in and loves Metuchen deeply, I can officially add Terzo to one of the most memorable places of one of my favorite towns. Came here to have dinner and introduce my parents to my boyfriend’s parents, a very special occasion for us. At no point did we feel rushed throughout our experience which I appreciate a lot since we were there from 6-9pm on a Wednesday night.
The atmosphere is beautiful and perfect for any special occasion or date night. Everyone was raving about the food the entire time!
For appetizers we got the peach burrata salad, wagyu meatballs (our favorite!), and the calamari (second favorite!!). For dinner we loved the cacio de pepe and chicken parm. The crab risotto was a top contender too. Oh my, the portions are so big so be ready to take some home! For dessert we had the apple pie cannolis and coffee. Sangria was yummy but in a smaller pitcher than we normally see, so get two if you have a bigger group! I wish I took some pictures of our food but we were having too good of a time to actually think about it!
Seriously, thank you to all the staff that worked 9/2/26! All of the servers and runners were beyond sweet and thoughtful!“

“Had a fantastic Valentine’s dinner at Bistro Seven Three in Bernardsville last night! Food was unbelievable and the service was friendly and really attentive! Thanks! We’ll be back!“

Great quality food with plenty of care and dedication to his craft and unbelievable ambience inside the Restaurant with fun and friendly Staff all around . I highly recommend it to give it a try …“

“Tremendous Italian dining experience, get a table in the basement as it is more quiet and more private.. Pasta was delicious, the wine recommended by the waiter, a bearded friendly Spanish guy was great as was the Tirasmsu which was out of this world. Ate there twice and it was the best dining experience in New Brunswick.“

The staff were attentive yet not overebearing and the food was delicious. Pointing out that I do cook... and well... so it is nice to find a place that I can enjoy without thinking "I could have made this better at home". Definitely be coming back and soon!“

“Frequented the old location many times and loved it every time. 1st time at the new location this past Saturday and… WOW. Food was above and beyond as was the service. PEI white mussels are out of this world. Duck breast and lamb chops were delicious. With tomorrow being the 1st day of spring we are that much closing to a lovely meal on the patio.“

“I have been eating here for years. It’s one of the best Italian restaurants in New Jersey. I have been lucky enough to take customers to many restaurants in NY and NJ and Vincenzo’s is one of the best around. The food and service is awesome. I recommend you going there.“

“Food and service consistantly great. Daily specials are varied and well presented. Sweet and spicey calamari is best ever. Our server Niti was outstanding.“

“Love Felina! It is so beautiful inside and the food was very good. We all enjoyed the complimentary eggplant and bread and the linguine dish was fantastic! The calamari app was also perfect. My friends and I were there for all of our birthdays and it was fantastic, they made us feel so special!!! Our server was so helpful and nice. The bar manager was also so nice and made excellent drinks! We all shared a perfect tiramisu to end the night. We are def going back!“

“The food and ambiance are always on point, and the people are welcoming like family.“

“daFilippo's is a hidden gem of a restaurant that has been my family's special occasion standard for many year's. The Northern Italian menu which changes to focus on only the freshest ingredients has a little Swiss influence and is presented with an artistic touch and personal care. Last evening I hosted sixteen business associates in the back room which has an iron gate for privacy. Filippo presented a five course meal which blew everyone away followed by him playing a few songs on the Piano. The Chicken or Cod dishes were pan seared to perfection. daFilippo's is a BYOB restaurant which I Love. My wife remarked how clean the restrooms are kept. Plenty of parking in the rear of the building. In closing, if you are looking for a family owned, unique restaurant where the owner chef touches every plate to ensure perfection then this is the place to make a reservation.“

“I never write reviews, but this one is worth writing! Yesterday was my Dad's 97th birthday. I ordered food from Anthony for his party of 25-30 people. Best choice I ever made! Not only were Anthony and Donna so nice and accommodating, but the food was out of this world! I cannot recommend Anthony's food, and service, more highly. Thank you Anthony and Donna for making my Dad's birthday even more special.“

“We had a delicious dinner. Will, the manager is always so welcoming. Their waiter, I believe Mario was so friendly. My halibut was delicious and I had enough for a second dinner. My friend loved her tortellini and husband always loves his vitello aromatico. Always a wonderful dining experience!“

“Sandwiches were huge and delicious…will absolutely be back!! The only gripe is if you order online, there’s no way to say if you want certain items excluded from your sandwich, such as tomatoes, salt, vinegar etc…that should be corrected imo.“

“The food is amazing and it never disappoints. Love the atmosphere and coziness of this place.“

“Had a great dinner! Always great service too!“

“We had a 70th birthday event here tonight (40 ppl) - cannot recommend enough! From the start of the planning to the execution of the night - they were responsive, understanding, and above & beyond accommodating. The staff were so sweet and the food is 10/10. Looking forward to booking another event here in the future!“

“I was there when I was using a rollator.. super easy to get around inside for being disabled! The food was delicious!“

“Great service, food, and location.“

“The BEST in Stirling for anything from amazing Stromboli that cannot be beat - fresh doughnuts, bagels & the tastiest desserts... You can't go wrong here. PS: Meatballs are to die for!“

“New ownership and some of the BEST pizza in NJ you have to come try this place“

“I was visiting my sister, and drove up from Florida. Her friend brought over a sandwich for me called the Not So Chicken Little. All I have to say is that it was so good, it brought a tear to my eye. Wish I knew this place existed before I moved 6 years ago. It is exactly the type of place I miss since moving south. This food made my day and my trip!!“

“Five star delicious takeout veal Parmesan and eggplant Parmesan. Very generous portions. Highly recommended!“

“Best Pizza in Union & Middlesex County HANDS DOWN! The Hot sandwiches, calzones, Stromboli’s all great! The dining area has that cozy home “cucina” feel. The serving staff are friendly and prompt. Whether it’s take out or dine in. Max’s Pizzeria & Restaurant is the only place that gets my money! Quality, Value & great food ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Everything is the best!!! ♥️🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟♥️“

“Every year we take a trip or two to come to this restaurant from Rochester NY ! One year we brought friends of 12 people and went to make reservations and they were full ! Once I told them who we were and we come every year they went above and beyond and got us a private table in the back by the street and accommodated all of us no problem ! Everyone loved it there AND one of their waiters is from where we are in NY it was great to have conversations with him ! Can’t wait to go back again . The mixed drinks as in the mojitos are my favorite! The oil for dipping is perfect !“

“We were there for my daughters birthday this past Saturday. My wife and my daughter's boyfriend had the seared salmon which they loved. My daughter had the chicken parm, which she said was good. Her only "complaint" was that the sauce was a bit too sweet for her taste, but the portion was good and the chicken was cooked well. My son enjoyed his pepperoni pizza. He's not very adventerous. I had the Capellini Napoletani. It was very good. The capellini was cooked perfectly for my taste as was the shrimp, clams and calamari. Very tender. The sauce was great. This is our go-to for great food and is my wife's favorite. She is returning with coworkers for lunch on Tuesday. Service is top notch. Keep up the good work. We'll definately be returning.“

“Fantastic!! So glad we came, by far the best Italian we’ve had….ever! Service from the outset was 1st class, very attentive team, could not do enough for you. Food quality was outstanding. Definitely worth the price tag.“

“This spot is a hidden gem. I’ve been living in the area for about 15 years now and just randomly tried this place one day, and let me just say it not only exceeded my expectations but blew them out of the park. The food is absolutely delicious and the service is nothing short of simply the best. I would highkey recommend trying their freshly house made pizzas, they’re finger licking good as well as their pastas which are chefs kisses. I’m genuinely amazed at how not many people know about this restaurant. The owner is the sweetest woman I’ve ever met, we talked for 15 minutes just about her business it was 2 minutes before they closed and she offered me all of the left over pizza they hadn’t sold that day FOR FREE. I’ve found my new favorite go to Italian spot.“

“Beautiful place with excellent food!“

“So grateful to Café Picasso for making my birthday dinner last Friday night a wonderful experience! The food was absolutely delicious and the service was above and beyond! It's dimly lit inside which made reading the menu a bit challenging. However, everything we did order made up for it! I highly recommend the Frittura di Calamari for an appetizer. The following dishes we ordered were spectacular! Rigatoni alla Vodka, Penne alla Grotta, Gnocchi Alessandra, Norwegian Salmon (special), Penne al Forno, Spaghetti alla Carbonara and the Pollo alla Francese! It is a BYOB establishment, luckily there is a wine and spirits store next door. My family will definitely be returning to this beautiful gem in the heart of Somerville!“

“We've been ordering here for a while now. It's one of the better NY/NJ style pizzas in the area without being too specialized.Their pasta and meat menu items are where they are best - looking at you Chicken Puicinella and Cavatelli with Broccoli.For appetizers, they have great wings which are crispy, the way I like them. Also, the fried calamari uses a very light batter, so it's not too heavy.We've ordered trays from them twice for parties and we weren't disappointed in the quantity provided and they were affordable.“

“Food is fresh and delicious! Hats off to the Chef! Great atmosphere and friendly staff.“

“hi everyone yes I stopped by Kings Pizza many of times they have a good service they're super clean friendly people they always ready to figure out what exactly you wanted to order very good place I completely recommend it“

“Usually pick up pizza to go never disappointed in the quality and service.“

“I recommend this place, food is good. nice environment.“

“Everything we have ordered from DaNapolis has been excellent...pizza, Chicken Francese, Shrimp Scampi, etc., everything is perfect. By far the best in the area.“

“Stopped in prior to going to a basketball game at St Thomas Aquinas. The pizza was delicious and the owner brought out a free sampling or his penne all vodka. This will be our new go to spot for eat ins and pick ups.“

“Highly recommend. Thank you to the staff for great service and great food. We will be back!“

“La Focaccia is my favorite restaurant in Summit. All the dishes are consistently great and the staff is always welcoming and accommodating. While they’re all fantastic, Diego is a standout waiter and we appreciate his service very much.

La Focaccia is great for business lunches and family dinners. The evenings are lively and a little too loud for business but it is always special to look around and see multi-generations of families breaking bread together.“
