50 Best Italian Restaurants near North Brunswick

“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“

“Good food in a friendly atmosphere!“

“The food is exceptional, and the service is equally as impressive. I love the generous portion sizes at reasonable prices. I usually get the chicken Alfredo pasta or strombolis, both of which never disappoint. The pizza is consistently delicious, with a perfect balance of crunch and softness. Highly recommend!“

“We’ve been going to Singas Famous Pizza for the past three years and it never disappoints! This time we had the pineapple pizza with onions, jalapeños, and spinach — fresh, flavorful, and perfectly baked. The cheese garlic bread was delicious too. The place is always nice and clean, with quick service and consistently great-tasting pizza. Highly recommend!“

“Great place to have delicious food at good prices . The waitstaff was sooo friendly“

“everything was amazing!!! we will be back“

“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!“

“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!“

“Fabulous food, atmosphere and service!“

“I hosted my friend’s 50th birthday here last week and it was great! Mike the owner was super accommodating and made sure everything was set up when we arrived. The staff was amazing and even with the multiple checks we had with people sitting all over the place, they still got everything right!!!! The food is great with huge portions and everyone went home with leftovers. This place is a gem and we will definitely be back with more friends and family!“

“Food and service is great! Nice atmosphere and plenty of parking.“

“Excellent food, the owner and staff are extremely friendly! Dusal's is my favorite Italian restaurant!“

“This spot is a hidden gem. I’ve been living in the area for about 15 years now and just randomly tried this place one day, and let me just say it not only exceeded my expectations but blew them out of the park. The food is absolutely delicious and the service is nothing short of simply the best. I would highkey recommend trying their freshly house made pizzas, they’re finger licking good as well as their pastas which are chefs kisses. I’m genuinely amazed at how not many people know about this restaurant. The owner is the sweetest woman I’ve ever met, we talked for 15 minutes just about her business it was 2 minutes before they closed and she offered me all of the left over pizza they hadn’t sold that day FOR FREE. I’ve found my new favorite go to Italian spot.“

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

“my review is for the amazing pepperoni slice I just grabbed for lunch. it had a crispy, thin crust with no flop. the sauce was a nice balance of sweet and tangy. the cheese was not excessive, and the pepperoni wasn’t too greasy. I added pepper flakes and oregano because that’s how I like my pizza, but it would be perfectly delicious without it.“

“Drove from Cleveland to a meeting in NYC, specifically had a layover in New Brunswick, just to have dinner. This was my second trip for dinner in two months and it exceeded all expecations, the hoilday decor transformed the second floor. The service (Regan) was on point, pleasant and efficient with out being over bearing. The meal was the single greatest pasta dish I have had in the U.S. (wild boar ravioli) Already making plans to return, if you are with in a days drive, you really have no excuse not to enjoy a meal with them.“

“Great Atmosphere! Service was amazing! Waitress was super nice and suggested good food! Ordered stuffed Ziti Fritta which was amazing appetizer, salad, chicken and Gnocchi soup were good, create your own pasta with rigatoni, chicken and five cheese sauce was also delicious. Stuffed chicken marsala that we ordered was average. Finally don’t forget the mint chocolate to finish it off. 😊“

“Loved it! The staff greeted us very nicely. Their food was amazing, and the dessert was delicious. Definitely will recommend people to come, and we will visit again!“

“Food is fresh and delicious! Hats off to the Chef! Great atmosphere and friendly staff.“

“Amazing Food and service !!“

“Best sandwich I have ever had thank you so much Tony made me the best most fresh sandwich I felt like my chicken Napoli sandwich with prosciutto came straight out of Italy I will continue to come everyday thanks to his craft in sandwich making . NUMBER 1 sandwich“

“Nunzio’s is hands-down one of the best dining experiences I’ve ever had! From the moment I walked in, the atmosphere was impeccable—warm, inviting, and full of charm. The customer service was in a league of its own; “amazing” doesn’t even begin to cover it. The staff was incredibly attentive, and their genuine kindness made me feel so welcome.

The owner himself, is the heart and soul of this place. He’s so humble, down-to-earth, and clearly pours love into every dish he prepares. You can truly taste the passion and care in the food—it was absolutely fantastic. Every bite left me wanting more, and I’m already looking forward to my next visit!

The prices are unbelievably reasonable for the quality of the food and the experience. Every dish I tried was worth every single penny, and I can only imagine the rest of the menu is just as outstanding.

This was the most amazing experience I’ve had in a long time, and I can’t recommend Nunzio’s enough to anyone in the area. Do yourself a favor and make this your next stop—you won’t regret it!“

“This past Saturday, 5.21.22, my family and I ventured out to Cucina Mandreucci, for the first time since covid, for my niece's college graduation celebratory dinner. We have been here before for other special family occasions, as well as for everyday family dinners. No matter whether you are a party of 20 or an intimate party of two, Cucina Mandreucci will treat you like family. They handled our rowdy bunch with ease. Jill, our server, and our busser (I apologize, but I forget his name) treated us like family. They remembered us from our last large family gathering three years ago, as well as from the last time I was there with my fiance and our four children. They remembered where we sat and what we ate; simply put, they (but especially Jill) made us feel at home, and welcomed us back with open arms. As if that were not enough, the food was, once again, outstanding! I am a picky eater, and that puts it mildly. Jill was ready for my crazy requests and substitutions. She, and the kitchen, handled it all like pros. As if our large, rambunctious party were not enough to handle, we actually forgot a to-go meal for a family member who was unable to attend; we put that request in as we were paying the bill. Not four minutes later did that food come out of the kitchen ready to go. When I tell you this place has their stuff together, that is the truth. This is my favorite restaurant in Middlesex County for sure, and of course we'll be returning!“

“The establishment was quite pleasant. The cashier provided friendly service, and the premises were clean. The cheese tater tots were delicious. My visit extended beyond my initial expectations due to the quiet atmosphere; I was permitted to wait for my wife without interruption. I would certainly return again“

“Love this place! Fast delivery always, and everything is delicious!“

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

“The service was ok. The food was as expected so no complaints there either. Overall the visit was mid, I prefer the one in Woodbridge if I had to choose, just gave more of a family vibe. However this one isn't nearly as busy as the Woodbridge location, so it was much quieter. I'd say the food came a little faster in this location but not by much, which was weird since it wasn't nearly as busy. Nonetheless no qualms and the food & service did what they needed to.“

“Ordered one large pizza half pepperoni and half chicken and paid $27 that’s ludicrous! Definitely not ordering from there again. Pizza was average at best! Gotta do better Bonettis!!“

“We celebrated our daughter's 19th birthday at Victoria's. Let me just say Vinny and team made us feel so warm and welcomed. The atmosphere reminded me of how restaurants used to be when I was a kid, growing up in NY. Top notch customer service and the icing on the cake.. food was amazing. We ordered appetizers including the baked wings and buttermilk fried calamari which was delicious. We had pasta dishes including carbonara, penne vodka and even gnocchi. All of which were amazing. As well as desserts . The waiter was amazing too. This is now our new favorite spot! Thank you Victoria's for a memorable evening ❤️“

“love the place, love the people. George is always awesome and the food is excellent and modestly priced. all my guests always love it.“

“This was the BEST, kindest, and friendliest Italian market I have ever been to. I grew up in an Italian family, where we treated everyone like our own, and that is exactly what just happened when I walked in. I am taken aback truly. Such a great place and great food!“

“This place is an absolute gem!! Food and service were absolutely outstanding we used to go to Jersey City to get food like this and it's better here I can't believe I didn't try this place earlier it's right down the street from us but I always thought it was catering only but it's not it's a regular restaurant with a bar area and everyone is so nice they have an outside tables area the parpadel was top notch I may never go anywhere else ever again!!!“

“Great place, BYOB“

“Excellent food and service!! They catered my daughter’s graduation party and the food was excellent. We are Sicilian and the food was on the money. Rating: 10++“

“Mr. Subs was recommended to me by many people and ever since I tried their subs I wouldn’t go anywhere else to get a sandwich. High quality service and preparation, the workers are personable and very friendly. Never fails to exceed expectations. Definitely recommend.“

“Stopped in prior to going to a basketball game at St Thomas Aquinas. The pizza was delicious and the owner brought out a free sampling or his penne all vodka. This will be our new go to spot for eat ins and pick ups.“

“The most delicious food you can eat with a very good atmosphere, reasonable prices and a friendly staff specially the owner is so helpful if you want to make an event don’t hesitate to make it there , I’ve made my sister’s birthday there and we were so satisfied with this decision TOTALLY RECOMMEND!!!Thank you La Rosetta and to all the staff there♥️“
