11 Best Italian Restaurants in Linden

“Had a really lovely visit today to Pappardello. We’ve been many times, but today when we arrived, we learned they had a new chef who had recreated the menu. We really enjoyed the brunch style items they added (my husband had Florentine Benedict and I had the French toast) and Chef Alexander brought out tastes of a few other new dishes for us. It’s clear he’s very committed and passionate to his work, and we are excited to enjoy the new version of Pappardello!“

“Went on a Friday for the first time with my sister and I loved the ambience, the LED lights, plants was great! Chris was our server & he was so nice, answered all our questions and made us feel welcome 🤗 they also have variety of music and I lovve me some raggaeton overall 10/10 . The food was also great“

“Love this restaurant! When you go there, you are family. The food is fresh and cooked to order. The staff and owner, Giovanni, couldn’t be more welcoming! You won’t be disappointed in anything you order!“

“Lovely authentic Italian restaurant:) great variety and good quality!“

“HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!! We use Primavera's frequently to feed our business employees. 10/10 recommend their pizza and delivery service. Deliveries are always on time, and the pizza is perfection. Dough is nice and soft, but a "great undercarriage". No other pizza place in the area is comparable. Dave Portnoy would probably rate it a 7.5, but it is a solid 9.5 in my book. All in all, solid pizza.“

“I fell upon this food gem on accident and sooooo glad I did.. 😊 I purchased the beef empanada ate it in my car and immediately went back inside for the $13.99 lunch special Baked Chicken, White Rice, Black Beans, and a Sancocho soup ... chef's kiss 😘“

“Good food, good price. My favorite is the mat lovers. They do it well“

“Had a sausage parm and a chicken parm today was delicious .“

“Best food around! Highly recommend! 😋😋“

“I consider myself a self-proclaimed pizza connoisseur. I recognize when a pizzeria uses Grande cheese, the Cadillac of mozzarella. Pasquale's crust is just right, not too thin and not too thick. Their sauce is perfect. My go to pizza is with anchovies and they put just enough. I rate their pizaza as a 10! Mangia, abbondante!“

“I went for the first time and the employee was kind. He had small talk with my friend and I. I was indecisive so he let me try a pizza slice free of charge. That gesture went a long way with me . I had a chicken cesar wrap with fries. It was pretty good. Thank you for true customer service.

Parking: A few spots out front.“
