173 Glenridge Ave, Montclair

“This place is fantastic!!! The pasta was to die for! The lamb pizza I’ve been thinking about since I’ve eaten it! The only hiccup was that they were short staffed in the kitchen so we were there for a very long time AND my husbands steak was over cooked. They did more than enough to make it right and were very apologetic. The place is very cute and homey inside. PLUS BYOB! We will be back again that’s for sure !”

“Our son recommended Palato’s and for once the kid steered his old man right! Haha. Our waitress was warm, friendly and most helpful with the menu. The owner stopped by our table a few times to check on us and was a very gracious host. Food was nothing short of spectacular from appetizers to entrees to gelato! We went with another couple and we each drove over 30 minutes to get there. Well worth the trip! We can’t recommend Palato Cafe any higher! Don’t miss it!”

Soft and flatter - none of the buffed up nonsense being served up everywhere else.The bhaji itself is excellent and buttery.I’m going to have dreams about this dinner!Highly recommend trying out the gulab jamun as well. It’s made fresh and served hot! Excellent food and thoroughly enjoyed.”

pastaRAMEN 6 S Fullerton Ave, Montclair Italian • $$
6 S Fullerton Ave, Montclair

“I’ve been trying to book this place for months and was finally able to snag a convenient time!Our server Igor was absolutely wonderful and super friendly. He suggested a few meals for us but we ultimately chose the Omakase which came with a 5 course meal.We started with Salmon Crudo which was served over a Furikaki Cracker and Crema. The cracker was SOOOO GOOD and the crema was great!The Calamri Fritti packed a ton of flavor and had a slight but subtle spiciness to it.Next we were served the Ramen Shrimp Scampi. It was very delicious and had a sweet note to it. A little on the saltier side for me but would still rate this dish a 9/10!My absolute favorite part of the Omakase was the Black Cod which was cooked to perfection! The Miso had the perfect balance between creaminess, salt and a little sweetness. The Cod literally flaked right off and couldn’t have been cooked better!!!Our last dish was the Zeppoles with a chocolate dipping sauce. The Zeppoles had a crunchy exterior and a very soft and spongy but light inside. It was a delightful dessert.Overall I would 10/10 recommend.”

Tino's Artisan Pizza Co. 252 Bellevue Ave, Montclair Italian • $$
252 Bellevue Ave, Montclair

“Tino’s has fast become our favorite pizzeria. Our young children always shout “Tino’s!” if I ask whether they want pizza for dinner. The pizzas are always great. We usually do pick up and eat at home but some times we go in to dine. The service is always great. Oh and for Valentines I asked if they could make a heart shaped pizza - it wasn’t advertised but I knew of another pizzeria doing it but didn’t want to go to another pizzeria. So I called and asked and they said we could request for one when we placed the order. We ordered two pizzas and one turned out better than the other but it didn’t matter. Our kids got a kick out of seeing a heart shaped pizza when they opened the box on Valentine’s Day.Highly recommend this place.”
