What can I say about Queen Margherita, The place has a great menu with amazing food. The food is always getting better and the team there always makes you feel like family. I try to go there as much as I can, because you get an experience here every time you go. If you ever go there please ask for Jaime he is amazing and always makes your experience there a first even if you have been there a hundred times.

?️ I had a fantastic dinner at Queen Margherita Trattoria, located at 246 Washington Ave in Nutley.

?The Paccheri ai Frutti Di Mare was perfectly cooked, with fresh seafood and a delicious sauce that brought all the flavors together beautifully.

? For dessert, the Pistacchio Cheesecake was a standout—creamy, rich, and not overly sweet.

✅ The ambiance was warm and welcoming, and the service was attentive.
Highly recommend for anyone looking for authentic Italian cuisine!

?‍? Thank you Pasquale, it’s always a pleasure dining at your restaurant!

Went here this evening with my wife who was tired but willing to go out.
Found a close parking space waited to be seated.
Was offered wine got one and wife wanter water.
Got the wine ,garlic oil for the bread.
Waited.... No water no menu.
Waited so more try to give use someone else meal.,told waitress still haven't gotten the menu.
Waited some more ,wife got tired .
Left $10.00 on table and walked out.
This was our second time trying to go there.
First experience no room and extreme longwait.
Would the third time be a charm.

Thanks to our dear friend that she introduced us to Pasquale and his wonderful family and staff. The hospitality is so warm and comfortable from the very minute you walk in, just like being with an old friend… you really feel at home. It was a Wednesday night and it was full of patrons enjoying themselves… and people told me it’s like this every evening (except Sunday and Monday when it’s closed… bravo Pasquale, a good balance is important). We kept hearing comments like ‘it’s always so good here’ and ‘that pasta was great’. And there’s a reason why it’s always full… not only for the atmosphere and the excellent service, with genuine smiles and courtesy, but especially the exquisite cuisine!! This is truly traditional Italian cuisine as good as it gets!! Even a simple focaccia was delicious, the pizza was light and fresh, the home-made-with-love mozzarella melted in your mouth, and oh the grilled octopus and spaghetti frutti di made (al dente and outstanding!). From the starters to first course, main and dessert (bigne’ and baba al rhum!)… just soooo good! and a perfect espresso miscela to top it off (with warmed cups)… che delizia ragazzi!!
Carissimo Pasquale et famiglia… grazie per la vostra calorosa accoglienza, gentilezza e chapeau alla vostra trattoria spettacolare! Needless to say but I’ll say it anyway… it’s obvious we’ll be back again and again! PS can’t wait to try the bistecca alla brace (steak grilled on wood embers)!

We had a great time here. The food and service were excellent. There is also live entertainment while you dine. Everything we ordered was delicious: the grilled octopus, mozzarella and roasted peppers, fried calamari, lasagna, fettuccine alla bolognese, pollo regina and rabbit cacciatore. For dessert, try the sfogliatelle, Italian cheesecake and the nutella pizza. This place did not disappoint. Please remember that it is BYOB. Looking forward to next time.
