50 Best Italian Restaurants near Millstone

“Had family birthday dinner and as usual a world class meal. Fabulous veal dish, penne vodka among other dishes! Calamari appetizer and meatball appetizer! I highly recommend Albivi!! World class food and matching service!!“

“Food was so absolutely incredible it might have ruined all other Italian food for me. Great customer service, staff were very friendly. The bread was an incredible base for the butter along with the marinara dip. Then there was the spaghetti with meatballs that came with a salad. The salad was great on its own. The pasta was incredible, and the meatballs balls were so tender that they just crumbled in your mouth. Overall the place was great. 10/10 would come again.“

“The food here never fails to impress. It’s fresh, tasty, and expertly made. The staff are friendly, attentive, and work really hard to make your dining experience ( inside or takeout/delivery) an enjoyable one. We visit a couple of times a week!!“

“Thank you for hosting an amazing After Pass for my family and friends! The tables were set up beautifully as we arrived. The food came out in courses, hot and fresh. We are traditional Italian cooks by heritage, and we could not get over the incredible meatballs! They made the chicken piccata with just the right amount of lemon and capers. The last course was an assortment of Italian mini desserts that were scooped up in a matter of minutes!! The only complaint we had was the chef would not part with the meatball recipe. Thank you again JoAnne and Frank for a memorable ending to my mom's end of life celebration.“

“Have been dying to try this restaurant out since they opened! They did not disappoint! The food is so fresh! no premade heated up restaurant food here! Every single thing we have tried was a taste sensation! Pizza homemade sauce and cheese to broc rabe so tender and mild, salmon to die for. We have been there 4 times liked it so much after the first time had them cater a party at our home. Every single person asked where the food came from. Joe the owner delivered the catering himself. Speaking of….Joe and Rosana the owners make you feel like family from our first visit. Not only have we found our go to weekly place to eat out we have found friends that we enjoy visiting and trust to cater our family events! Thanks Joe and Ro! Did I mention the homemade rice pudding they gave us? Wife was never a fan of rice pudding but so good she goes back for more even made a special trip to pick some up for our Easter guests. Thank you Joe and Ro!“

“The best restaurant in town Italian food and 🍕 my fever meatball Parmesan“

“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.“

“Nothing but the best food ever. Finger licking good!“

“Moved to the neighbourhood a couple of weeks back and were looking for a nice place to eat... we found Girasole within walking distance and it exceeded our expectations. 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!“

“Loved the food and friendly staff, large portions and great prices“

“We had an amazing meal a few weeks ago at Luca’s! We were greeted and seated and waited on promptly. We brought our own wine in which they had no problem opening for us. The food was out of this world. Their meatball appetizer is everything you’ve heard and then some. Incredible sauce, bread service, and our meals were excellent. My partner had the octopus for an appetizer and said it was incredible. Both of our meals were amazing and served timely and piping hot. I had the chicken marsala with mushroom risotto, delicious! And he had the veal saltimbocca. The service was prompt, pleasant and just perfect, and the atmosphere is lovely. I highly recommend this restaurant!“

“Awesome - love the broccoli rabe and sausage appetizer - so good Great pasta and chicken dishes also.“

“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.“

“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.“

“This place is such a hidden gem! The food is exceptional and has such authentic Italian flavors. The menu offers such extraordinary and unusual combinations not found at other Italian restaurants. The service is beyond wonderful—- so friendly and welcoming! You can’t miss this AMAZING experience! I highly recommend it! I would rate it with 20 stars if I could!“

“After many friends telling how good AMA is I decided to grab a pie and meatball parm sub to give them a go. My words will not give their food justice but it is delicious. Napoletan done the right way. Not to mention the owner is beyond good people. Greeted me outside while I was waiting for them to open and then offered me an espresso while my food was being prepared. We will most certainly be back.“

“Consistently great food with weekly specials Tuesday - Thursday and Friday - Sunday. Very friendly staff. The owner Nick stops by the tables to ensure everything is to your satisfaction. He builds the menu himself - a graduate of Johnson & Wales.“

“Nothing but the best food ever. Finger licking good!“

“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.“

“Sapore Ravioli are legendary in the area. Accompanied by a variety of home made sauces, they are a treat.
Great sandwiches to be had here, making this a fantastic lunch spot.
Good assortment of Italian delicacies.
Worth a visit.“

“Best food I've ever eaten. The atmosphere is wonderful.“

“We had a group of 8 and we all had some really nice meals. We were in Princeton area for a horse show and we really enjoyed our time here. We will be back“

“Last night was our first time at Pastiamo's and our experience was fantastic from start to finish! The food was absolutely delicious -- Burrata, Gnocchi Pesto, Penne with Walnut Sauce and Rigatoni Ragu were especially everyone's favorites. The staff was polite, attentive, and so patient, even when we stayed past closing time. Thank you, Francesca and team for making our night so special. I highly recommend this restaurant, and our family will definitely be back!“

Made my husband a custom ordered lasagna, I had the halibut special. Both were delicious. Thank you for such a memorable experience, we will see you again soon!“

“Great place! We come back to NJ from Arkansas and love getting a meal in here!“

“Food is always good, people are friendly the only problem I had is outside of this. Today when I paid I used my debit card instead of paying cash like I have every other time this was around 12:15pm today. The employee made a big deal about it being a NASA Card (my mom worked at Nasa & I have had an account there since 10th grade) By 1:30pm someone had attempted to use my card for a $1,339 AT&T purchase that was declined three times then used some Delta D account to charge $799.60 and unfortunately the second attempt work. I just came from the location and and all I had was smoke blown up my but. Either an employee or patron did something and they have a camera inside the store but was told the owner has the key. If the owner would just let me know when he will be there I will show up and we can handle this like gentlemen. I have been going to this place for over 5 years and work near by. For the record the card has been cancelled and NASA is tracking where charges are being attempted from. Paul“

“Was there for the first time last night, what a wonderful experience! The service was great, Franchesca was very friendly and attentive and the food was absolutely delicious. One of the best Italian food I’ve ever had. If you are looking for great food and service, definitely visit this place!“

“This was my first time here and everything was great! Sandwiches, stuffed peppers, potato salad and the sausage wheel with provolone.“

“After going to Bruno’s for dinner many times and loving it, we decided to have a party in the banquet room. Let me tell you that the food, service, and atmosphere was absolutely perfect!! They go above and beyond and honored all my requests which I truly appreciated! I highly recommend Bruno’s for dinner and private events…..and don’t forget to try the Cajun calamari!“

“Everything is so GOOD! I'll be back!“

“I’ve been here quite a few times over the years but never got around to leaving a review. The food has always been consistently good, the breadsticks are fresh, and the portions are generous. The staff have always been friendly and attentive, even when the restaurant is busy. It’s a comfortable place to sit down with family or friends, and I’ve always had a good experience. Definitely worth a visit if you’re in the area.“
