“My husband and I dined here for a day-after Valentine's celebration. Our 7:00 reservation allowed us to be seated right away. The playlist was stellar. It was all the music I grew up listening to as a kid, and it made me feel at home. McKenzie was our server and she was incredibly professional, kind, and attentive. The menu has so many great choices, but the specials shouldn't be slept on either! Here's what we had: Appetizers: -Brussels sprouts salad with sliced apple, marinated feta, roasted squash, candied pecans, quinoa and tossed in a vinaigrette - Kabocha squash ravioli in a braised beef and peanut ragu, crispy eggplant and a peanut-green bean crumble. Entrées: -Flat iron steak in a mustard-sherry au poive sauce, carmelized onions, and potato churritos -Fresh cavatelli in an escargot sauce, shelled escargot, topped with a parsley butter crumb - Side of sautéed wild mushrooms with sage and citrus Dessert: -Orange and cardamom olive oil cake, assorted coffee and tea. The food was stunning. Every bite was a hit and truly made with love. Such thoughtful flavor combinations and interesting applications, all the while cooked perfectly. We had the opportunity to speak with Beverly, and we learned so much about her passions for the industry and the pride she has for the products she creates. We will certainly be back again and again!“

“We had a wonderful time at Sapori! The food is incredible and service was fantastic! We had the mussels and rock shrimp to start and they were delicious! Had the halibut, lobster pasta, steak pasta and seafood risotto and everything was amazing! Will definitely be back.“

“best salads I've ever had!!“

“Very nice - I’m coming back for sure“

“Yummy Spicy Shrimp Pasta. I love it every time I come here :)“

“I just ordered from one of their locations and it was absolutely delicious. I will be ordering from them again.“

“We enjoyed a gorgeous dinner at La Rocca Osteria, on the corner of Midland Avenue and Portland Place (a block south-east of Valley Road and a block north-east of Bloomfield Avenue), this week. The food was brilliant - fresh, flavorful and great portion sizes. I was thrilled with my choices of the buratta salad, crabmeat-stuffed lobster tail with mashed potatoes and a chocolate mousse cake. My fella demolished the mussels and clams in a white wine and garlic sauce, lasagne (he thought it was so delicious that he even bought a second portion to give to his dad) and cheesecake. I almost wish I’d taken photographs, but I was more interested in the experience than documenting it. The service was fantastic as well - friendly, calm, organized and reliable. Parking nearby wasn’t difficult either. It’s the second time we’ve eaten there; the first was on our first date. It was just as lovely then too.“

“What a burger!!! The National, soooooo good“

“From someone whose appetite has been battle-tested and brutally selective, this place doesn’t just serve food; it delivers an experience that resets the standard.

Every plate arrives like it has something to prove. The heat is perfect. The texture is intentional. The flavors aren’t loud for attention; they’re composed, disciplined, and unforgettable. Whether you pick it up yourself, sit down and let the moment unfold, or have it delivered to your door, it lands the same way: hot, precise, uncompromised.

You can taste the time. You can feel the quality. There’s a level of care in the preparation that goes beyond technique; it feels personal. In a world of rushed kitchens and corner-cutting, this food stands tall. It doesn’t just satisfy hunger. It restores you.“

“Everything they make is amazing. The sandwiches are bountiful. Fresh ingredients. My fav place“

“The female manager was very nasty to two employees when I was there. She told one of them loud enough for everyone inside the restaurant to hear that he had two strikes and she would send him home and then turned to another worker and said that she was going home too. Wtf, the food was good but that woman needs to go back to the handbook and look at how to speak to employees when patrons are around. I was very uncomfortable and not sure I’ll be back. That is not the way to treat others.“

“#AmazingPizza #PortaMontclair 🥰“

“I was in the area with my daughter and we found Green Chop’s. We decided to try it because it looked delicious and healthy. My daughter (6) ordered the chicken noodle soup and she loved it, ate the whole thing! And I got the House Special salad, super delicious packed with veggies, chicken and a very good dressing. I highly recommend this place and will visit again when I’m in the area“
