Cara Mia never disappoints. The food is consistently excellent, with generous portions and classic Italian flavors done right. The atmosphere is cozy and intimate without feeling stuffy, and the staff is attentive, friendly, and genuinely welcoming. It’s one of those places that feels perfect for a date night or a relaxed dinner with friends. BYOB is a huge plus, and everything from start to finish feels thoughtful and well run. Easily one of the best Italian spots in the area.

We finished with the chocolate chip cookie dessert and you guessed it, the BOMB! I could not be happier with the service or more importantly the food. This is my new #1 restaurant in NJ.
The Chicken parm was excellent. We had the mozzarella carroza that was served with an anchovy sauce that was so unique and tasty. Of course the presentation of the Chicken Parm was top notch. The large portion size should be noted as well. Flavors were distinct and not at all generic or overly seasoned. Coffee was quality. Desert was exceptional.
