“Amore is wonderful. I had an amazing dinner. Calamari was on point with perfect sauce. Onion soup was super delicious. Rich, thick broth was awesome. Crab ravioli and rack of lamb specials were incredibly enjoyable. Ended with the cheesecake. YUM! I can't wait to return and try more dishes.“

“First time dining at Spigola's and it was terrific. Surprised to find a wonderful full service bar in a restaurant located among strip stores. Usually strip store restaurants are B.Y.O.B. Menu is quite varied and was accompanied by a special menu. My wife and I opted for entrees on the special menu which were superb. I love Halibut and it was prepared exquisitely. Dining experience deserved the five stars given. Our service was spot on.“

“We love the food here at Mercato. Always fresh and hot. The portions are big. Plan on having the leftovers for lunch. The flounder francaise is amazing. The fish is so fresh.
They have a selection of deserts. A must go to. This is a hidden gem!!“

“Another wonderful dinner at Revere. Excellent as always and the staff is just the best!! Thank you! Karen and Bob Dorio“

“First time here and was very pleased with all the amazing food, awesome atmosphere, and incredible waiter Reggie! The interior was beautifully decorated and very comfortable! Can’t wait to go back for their Sunday Brunch, and outdoor seating when it gets warmer! This is my new go-to place for fine dining ❤️“

“They've done a great job creating outdoor ambiance but you will hear some planes from Mercer Airport. Hardly an issue when compared to the overall experience and indoor dining is terrific as well. Their chicken cacciatore is beyond compare - moist, tender chicken in a sauce you want to eat with a spoon. Hubby loves their chicken and veal parmesan. Tablemates agree on all counts. Service is always great as well. You can't go wrong.“

“My family and I have been coming to Non Solo for years for their authentic Italian delicious food. Recently I was diagnosed with Celiac disease and tried Non Solo's gluten free pasta at the owners suggestion. It was fabulous and I had no reactions. I can't wait to go back and try more. Thank you Jerry“

“We went to dine with this rag tag restaurant and the experience was awful. The waitress had no teeth and asked my son for his? At first we thought “hey maybe they are joking” then all of a sudden. They lady grabbed his front bicuspid. Needless to say - at that point we were concerned. Because we had a long day we were still hungry. So we stuck around. The next thing you know. The toothless individual brought another toothless friend and tried to get my tooth as well. At that point. We know. Time to get out of here. We were cooked. Unlike the food at this gross place.“

“I tell everybody this place is great. Try somthing new on the menue. You never know unless you try.“

We will make this a regular stop whenever passing through NJ again.“

This place is the opposite of many venues in Princeton, where the emphasis is on atmosphere and exclusivity. The emphasis here is wonderful food and great service and it won’t break your bank account.“

“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.“

“Smaller local Italian restaurant. The service was excellent considering how short handed they appeared to be. The garlic knots were unique and very good. Not an over powering of garlic. The pizza was great. Crust was light and airy. Loved the little air bubbles on it. Slight garlic taste in the sauce. Definitely recommended trying this spot.“

“Outstanding food, great atmosphere and attentive staff.“

“Enzo's has always been my favorite Italian restaurant for dinner. When DeLorenzo's pizza on Sloan Avenue closed down recently, we wanted to find someplace new for pizza. Most people don't think about going to this fine dining establishment for something lighter. We decided to give Enzo's a try for their pizza, which has always been on the menu. We had only gone there for a full dinners in the past. Well, we were very happy with our decision having a terrific salad and an excellent pizza. If anyone wants to give Enzo's a try for their pizza it is well worth going. Give it a try! I am sure you will love it as much as we did. We plan to go more often in the future. This is certainly one of the best restaurants in the area. The food is terrific and the staff always friendly and attentive!“

“It was a gorgeous evening to sit in Leonardo's outdoor dining area. We really enjoyed the chicken and shrimp parm, as well as the penne vodka.

“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.“
