26 Best Italian Restaurants in Newark

“Gorgeous restaurant, diverse menu, and perfect service! You get a hearty serving of olives, olive oil and rosemary fluffy focaccia to start. I got the arancini which had the meltiest cheese inside, the branzino which was so flavorful and the tiramisu which was oh so creamy! I got a red wine but the cocktail menu looked delicious. Would def come back to try everything!“

“Wine was ok, but the cake...........................insane“

“Our first time BUT it will absolutely NOT be the last. Our new favorite Italian and pizza spot

They have beef and turkey pepperoni!

We dined in and had Mina. So was beyond lovely and provided great service.

The space is fantastic. Like a sports bar meets Nonna dining kitchen with great music and sound system.

“I’m obsessed with &pizza! I love being able to build my own pizza with all the toppings I like. The ingredients always taste fresh, and their pepperoni and bacon combo is delicious. The ginger berry lemonade is also a must-try. It’s fast, modern, and the vibe is cool – perfect for a quick lunch or casual dinner.“

“We had a 40th Birthday Party in the private room on Saturday night. It was absolutely fantastic. The room is beautiful ,they had it set up as we discussed. The service was exemplary. FOOD was amazing. We have been enjoying Forte since they opened. I would highly recommend this venue for any private party.“

“Super easy and user friendly app to use when ordering your food. Love the live portion of the app; that way you know step by step on the process, including when the delivery person is on their way. Delivery person was very professional, personable and prompt; even called me when they arrived at the hotel.“

“I grew up eating from here with my mom, and it is one of the few places I remember from my childhood that is still going. I visited here yesterday for the first time since the makeover, and I really like the new look. Not only that, the service was awesome! I am back today for the Wednesday special....get any double for the price of a single! I am a lifetime customer!!!“

“Thank you to Steve and staff for hosting our corporate holiday luncheon!“

“First time here. Great experience. We got there right at 5 pm when they opened on a Saturday. Got table right away. 20 mins later place was packed with long wait. Wait staff was awesome. Annette stopped by our table numerous times and was fun to talk too and welcoming. Shrimp beeps were our favorite. Eggplant was awesome. Garlic pasta and savoy chicken were so tasty. Could not have been more pleased. Great prices too. Old school atmosphere that is fun to experience. But it’s not a place you can linger, you eat and go. Highly recommend for good simple Italian food.“

“awesome food, great service!“

“We stayed at a hotel nearby and wanted the typical Dominican (tres golpe) breakfast so I found this restaurant online.
The food was great and service was 5/5. They had a lot of variety, my husband had the chicken soup and it was delicious too! Definitely stop by.“

“was the most flavorful pizza I've ever eaten. grandmother pizza is the name“

“Only came to pick up their version of smash burgers and was pleasantly surprised to find out how popular their pizza is. (Yes it's a pizza shop, but not MY pizza shop) The homemade cookies are worth coming in for but don't be surprised if they're gone.“

“I've been to the all-you-can-eat restaurant a few times and really liked it. But today I was disappointed because I really wanted to eat a pizza with catupiry, so I called and ordered a pizza with catupiry and they sent it to me with cream cheese. They didn't tell me that it didn't have catupiry... It only had cream cheese. Otherwise, the pizza is delicious, just be careful with catupiry if you like it...“

“awesome food, great service!“

“Awesome pizzas & super fresh salad! Service is excellent & diningroom is clean!“
