“Osso Bico is one of our favorite restaurants. Owner, Randy, and bartender Ray make us feel like family when we come in. The atmosphere is great, the food is delicious and the service is the best. Osso Buco is one of the best Italian restaurants in northern Jersey. And that is saying something“

“i am a lover of garlic bread so when i saw garlic knot sliders i was so excited! i got the eggplant parm slider and shared a garlic knot macaroni pizza with my friends! it was more than enough food. the garlic knot sliders were definitely my favorite! i would love to come back and try the other options in their pick 3 option. the pizza was good but not anything too special, i would probably prefer plain pizza with the garlic knot crust, but it was definitely fun to try it with the 'mac and cheese' (it wasn't macaroni noodles but it was yummy nonetheless). overall i recommend coming here to try their food! they have good seating and parking wasn't hard to find on a Sunday around dinner time.“

“Good Pizza Great service Good Beer“

“Tonight I had the pleasure to dine at Bici restaurant in Ramsey, NJ. From the minute I walked in, I knew I was going to like it! You are greeted in such a warm and friendly manner. One of the owners, Marcello makes his rounds around the room speaking to his customers and making you feel at home. Everything I ordered was delicious and the waiters are so polite and attentive. Pleasant atmosphere and I will be back again. Thank you staff for your hospitality. It’s a BYOB. It’s a small restaurant with outdoor dining. Definitely 5 stars!!!!!“

“Place is a hidden treasure. Food is outstanding! The waiters were very welcoming, funny and very attentive without rushing us before we could ask for anything they were right there. The owner is super sweet with a beautiful personality. He makes you feel welcomed from the moment you walk in. The food was phenomenal every dish was seasoned perfectly and portions were plentiful. The prices very reasonable for the service and food quality they provide. This is so far our favorite Italian cuisine restaurant I'm so glad we live close by we will be back. If I could give a 10 star I would!“

“Had a surprise birthday party here for my sister in law. The staff, including Brianna and Jasmine were fantastic. They were so accommodating with our requests and the service and food were on point! We were able to arrive early to decorate our party area that already looked very nice without our decorations. We picked off their standard party menu but they had no problem tweaking it to our requests. Last minute requests for pasta and butter for kids was no problem. We have already placed a deposit for my daughter's bridal shower for next year. Also..BYOB!!!“

“The traditional Italian sub ("#1") was reviewed as the best sub in New Jersey, and I completely agree, except for the fact that their #4 sub (hot prosciutto) might be even better. The folks there are already. Be aware, cash only. There is a small parking lot behind the building with a very narrow driveway and an onto Fairmount St, so maybe it's better to come in from that direction.“

“First time with a friend that knew everyone. Atmosphere is wonderful. Staff all very attentive. 5 of us all ordered specials and no one was disappointed. Owner was gracious and attentive even when it got crowded. This is a must go location in Ridgewood.“

“Lavagna has become our favorite restaurant in Rockland County since its opening earlier this year. We’ve had a half dozen dinners there, and recently tried their Sunday brunch. The menu is creative and contemporary, with daily specials that bring new flavor discoveries each time we visit. The wine list is extensive, thoughtfully curated, and reasonably priced. Highly recommended!“

“Had a fabulous dinner on a recent Sunday evening. Several specials offered in addition to the regular menu. Eggplant rollatini and pasta with vodka sauce are always delicious, and seafood entrees are especially good (always fresh and portions are generous). Our server, Edward, was attentive, friendly, and helpful. One of our favorite casual neighborhood restaurants. Highly recommend.“

“Absolutely amazing. Julia was our waitress and she was very attentive but not overbearing like others can be. She knew when to come and check on us and when we just wanted to be. Food was as always, delicious.“

“My husband and I had another terrific meal at Broadway Bistro last evening.
We ordered from the special prix fixe menu that had so many great choices, it was hard to choose.
We settled on the scallops over polenta and the spring rolls with teryaki to start, and the panko horseradish flounder and grilled shrimp salad. Desert was the poached pear with raspberry sorbet.
Everything was perfectly cooked and beautifully presented. The wait staff is friendly and extremely efficient, and just make dining there such a terrific experience!“

The restaurant is a beautiful Victorian style home from the late 1800s. It is decorated perfectly, creating an attracting atmosphere! My family and I always have an enjoyable and memorable time at Giulio's, whether it's a party for an event or a family dinner.“

“This is our fourth visit to I Gemelli. We had not been here for about a year because our last two meals were only OK. This is a BYOB so bring a bottle. What a difference a year makes. The food was excellent. We ordered the Portabello alla Griglia - a portabello mushroom served over thinly sliced potatoes. I had the Pollo Saporito - sauteed pieces of chicken on the bone in a white wine sauce with sun-dried tomatoes and capers. The pignoli nuts added a lot of flavor to the dish. Service was wonderful too. The waiter took the time to explain the specials and answered all of our questions. We will be returning.“

“Great place to have a Birthday celebration with your loved ones! The food beyond delicious adding to this, the great attention you receive since doing the reservation. A super recommended place if you are looking for authentic Italian...and you can “

“Good food and plenty of it“

“I’ve been going to LaFontanella for over 20 years! Great staff & excellent food every single time!!“

“Recommend: Pork Braciole & Meatball with gnocchi, fettuccine Alfredo with chicken
Good: clams and mussels in white wine garlic sauce, pan seared scallops with rigatoni
Meh: house salad

The pork Braciole was very unique but the meatballs and gnocchi were a little too soft for it to be perfect.

The clams and mussels were tasty and the sauce was thickened and was delicious on the bread.

The scallops were sliced thinly and ended up being a little overcooked.

Fettuccine Alfredo in my opinion the noodles were too thin to hold up to the thick sauce but it was the favorite of others.“

“Very cozy intimate Italian restaurant with a great menu. Daily lunch and dinner specials available. This I a local neighborhood storefront place with very attentive professional service. Large portions with nice dessert options. This is a BYOB with stemware provided. Definitely an old school vibe. Can’t wait to go back.

Parking: On street parking“

“Awesome food great atmosphere“

“The food is good especially the pie, close and easy to get from my house, when you have good food and and it is close enough to go there any time. Its the perfect combination for a happy night of relaxation and comfort food.

Parking: easy access and enjoyed the food very much, I will return again.“
