50 Best Italian Restaurants near Peapack And Gladstone

“The atmosphere is the best part of Cafe Azzurro. Very good vibes for family dining. Service has been meh - they seem to get overwhelmed and prioritize large groups over smaller ones. Food is pretty good but Il Monello down the street has them beat in that category.“

“Staff is very welcoming & attentive. Food is amazing!“

“Best sandwich I have ever had! I highly suggest the Grilled Chicken with Fresh Mozz and Roasted Peppers. Cute and cozy place with friendly staff and great prices. I will definity be back!“

“We went last night to celebrate NYE at Rosie's... the food was delicious, however we did not get our dinner until 10:45. We arrived at 8:30. In fact, our table was last to receive each course of the meal, and it was just too slow. The bill for 4, with tip, was $650, which is too much to receive such poor service.“

“Had a fantastic Valentine’s dinner at Bistro Seven Three in Bernardsville last night! Food was unbelievable and the service was friendly and really attentive! Thanks! We’ll be back!“

“From the moment we walked in, we were treated as if we were sitting in first class. The staff was so attentive to our table even though they were very busy. We were not rushed and enjoyed every savory bit of food that was put before us. They also catered to me being a vegetarian. We finished our meal with the most delicious homemade gelato . if ever given the opportunity, please do not pass this gem of a restaurant up.“

“Food and service consistantly great. Daily specials are varied and well presented. Sweet and spicey calamari is best ever. Our server Niti was outstanding.“

“Attended a party there. Great food. We had Caesar salad, meatballs (giant), fried calamari (really good!) and our choice of entree. I chose chicken parmigiana, first off as a joke I asked the server if this was for the entire table, a huge portion! Two large chicken breasts atop a good size serving of linguine. The red sauce was excellent. I can’t wait to go back.“

“Delicious food! Great staff!“

“Beautiful alfresco dining weather permitting. Dinner never disappoints all selections excellemt. Best mussels ever. It’s not about the mussels but about the sauce which is FABULOUS.“

“Food is Delicious. Nice Place.“

“Host and wait staff are extremely attentive and friendly. Menu variety is excellent with beer and wine available as well. Our chicken Caesar salad was excellent and margarita pizza slices were delicious. They offer a long list of specials of the day. And the best part, they did not present us the bill to try to get us out of the restaurant on their time.“

“I can’t say one bad thing about this restaurant - the food, the service, even the greeting at the front door was all great. As soon as my friends and I walked in we felt comfortable. We shared eggplant rollatini and bruschetta to start, and each had pasta dishes (chicken parm & lasagna) for our main entrees. We each brought half our dinners home so we could share a dessert :) which was also wonderful (fresh baked chocolate chip cookie in a cast iron pan with ice cream). We WILL be back. This place is a gem!“

“Luna Rossa is an exceptional restaurant which is run by a loyal and dedicated team under the direction of Adrian. Our first time visiting this establishment was with a party of 10. Adrian took all of our orders including appetizers without writing anything down. The food was delivered to perfection. I am astounded by the diversity of the menu, the ability to switch out sides, the quality and taste of the food. The chefs are talented and cook to delight every palate. I can not say enough about this wonderful restaurant including their staff Carlos, Kevin, and everyone that works so hard to deliver memorable meals. I look forward to going back soon. Thank you!“

“Great restaurant. The food is unbelievable and the people are super nice“

“Best pizza in town. Also better than 90% of pizza in NYC. My family loves Enzo's Pizza.“

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

“We've been ordering here for a while now. It's one of the better NY/NJ style pizzas in the area without being too specialized.Their pasta and meat menu items are where they are best - looking at you Chicken Puicinella and Cavatelli with Broccoli.For appetizers, they have great wings which are crispy, the way I like them. Also, the fried calamari uses a very light batter, so it's not too heavy.We've ordered trays from them twice for parties and we weren't disappointed in the quantity provided and they were affordable.“

“Fabulous food. Honestly don’t think there are many restaurants who can beat the food quality. If you haven’t tried it, you should.“

“Beautiful inside. Food and service was Wonderful! 100% recommend!“

“Was there for the first time last night, what a wonderful experience! The service was great, Franchesca was very friendly and attentive and the food was absolutely delicious. One of the best Italian food I’ve ever had. If you are looking for great food and service, definitely visit this place!“

“Food was amazing … Fast and delicious“

“This is a great restaurant. Great food, great service, lovely interior.“

“Very Good Italian Food. Always Delicious.“

“We were there for my daughters birthday this past Saturday. My wife and my daughter's boyfriend had the seared salmon which they loved. My daughter had the chicken parm, which she said was good. Her only "complaint" was that the sauce was a bit too sweet for her taste, but the portion was good and the chicken was cooked well. My son enjoyed his pepperoni pizza. He's not very adventerous. I had the Capellini Napoletani. It was very good. The capellini was cooked perfectly for my taste as was the shrimp, clams and calamari. Very tender. The sauce was great. This is our go-to for great food and is my wife's favorite. She is returning with coworkers for lunch on Tuesday. Service is top notch. Keep up the good work. We'll definately be returning.“

“bensi is my favorite restaurant. the staff is always welcoming and the food is absolutely amazing“

“5 stars ! delicious food - something for every. they will accommodate for different tastes ( vegetarian or gluten-free ) friendly staff !“

“Really good. Pleasant outdoor seating. Loved the pretzel knots. Good beer, sweet potato fries for most part were good. Would have enjoyed a dipping sauce for fries and for my prime rib sliders drummies were good but could have used a sauce“

“Buen servicio, excelente dinner y aperitivos, mi familia todos contentos y en especial mi esposa la del cumpleaños. Gracias.“

“What a delightful spot! The warm sourdough bread was amazing. Really good tricolor salad and house salad. Good fried calamari …the kind with the tentacles too, not just rings. My husband enjoyed cavatelli and broccoli and I ordered the meatballs but was too full to finish so we brought them home. Glad we stopped here and will return to try pizza next“

“Absolutely one of the best tasting pies around! Been going there for years. They also have a new garlic spread that is a MUST HAVE! Great to dip your slice in or have on a white slice. If you haven’t tried it yet, ask for it when you order a pizza! 🍕🇮🇹👌🏼“

“I had a fantastic experience at Olive Garden thanks to my server, Kayo! From the moment we sat down, Kayo was welcoming, friendly, and attentive. He took the time to explain the menu and offered great suggestions based on my preferences. His service was efficient, and he really made our dining experience enjoyable. Kayo's positive attitude and professionalism truly stood out, making the meal feel special. Highly recommend asking for him if you're visiting!“

“Everything we have ordered from DaNapolis has been excellent...pizza, Chicken Francese, Shrimp Scampi, etc., everything is perfect. By far the best in the area.“

“The best food, service, and reasonably priced. Family meals are a great value when you don't feel like cooking. I have also catered parties here. Thank you, for helping us out with our Girl Scout troop!!“

“The food is awesome on both sides! Shabo and family are wonderful hosts! We love NY Pizza and Monte Casa!“

“Thank you Sapori for the amazing food you made for my family Father's Day party! The Baked ziti was so cheesy good, the green salad fresh & crisp, bruschetta was crunchy & lots of topping, & shrimp scampi garlic yum! the service was so friendly! Many Blessings to your family from Ken & JoAnne Betz xo“

“This is our GO-TO place for catering when we have parties. They are so accommodating, they can make anything on or off the menu, great pricing, and they are truly appreciative for the business! Every single time we order, our guests RAVE about the food. We went out on a limb and ordered a large cheesesteak Stromboli last night and people couldn’t stop eating it. HIGHLY recommend!“

“This was my first time here and everything was great! Sandwiches, stuffed peppers, potato salad and the sausage wheel with provolone.“

“I recently visited JOES PIZZA and had an absolutely fantastic experience! From the moment I walked in, the atmosphere was warm and welcoming. The staff was friendly and attentive, making us feel right at home. The pizza? Simply amazing. The crust was perfectly crispy on the outside yet soft and chewy inside—exactly what you want in a pizza. I tried their signature EGGPLANT PIZZA, and the combination of fresh ingredients and bold flavors was a delightful surprise. You can tell they use high-quality ingredients, and everything tasted so fresh. What really stood out was the variety of toppings and unique combinations. There’s something for everyone, whether you’re into classic Margherita or prefer something more adventurous. And don’t even get me started on their homemade sauces—wow! The portions were generous, and the prices were more than reasonable for the quality you get. I’ll definitely be back soon to try more from their menu. If you're in the area and craving delicious pizza,“

“Always a great classic dinner experience. Small and intimate, the noise is much better with hidden acoustic tiles, the pasta is homemade, and specials are actually interesting, and the service is exceptional. It's also nice to be on Broadway rather than Burlingame Avenue, because it is a bit smaller and charming. This is a great place for Italian food in Burlingame.“

“MV Restaurant is the best and authentic Italian restaurant in NJ, the quality of ingredients, techniques, passion and authenticity are marvelous! Chef Pat confirms his majestic taste, hands and heart after Queen in Brooklyn Heights. The stones of your walls are mighty and wise, like the strength of Italian cuisine in your family. A must to go, dear friends, a shining diamond in a confused world of goofy chefs. Grandissimi Vitiello! Chef Lorenzo Polegri“

“This HAD to be one of the best pizza I had in a long time. Rumors have it in the pizza world, is you ever wanna try a places best pizza always order a personal pie, that will tell you how they really are. So I ordered a personal Mushroom, Plain and a specialty one. Let me tell you this, IF you like a good crunch pizza..... On every bite.... Good flavor that stands tall..... This is the place to go.... ABSOLUTELY, so far, one of the best around.... This hole in a wall will surprise the s#$& out of you. Next time I will go for a full size pie and tell you how that goes....It will be interesting... I have been in places where I love there personal size and didn't like there full size....and let me add..... It was so good that I ate the personal Mushroom before I got home and I love down the road in Morristown... That's how good this wasI AM TELLING YOU if you like a crunch to your pizza, and you eat the whole slice.... This places personal pie is just for you....The two guys behind the counter was extremely nice... One had to be the owner, a bigger guy great personality and knew his stuff.... And the counter guy was just as nice and eager to help....So I have no dog in this fight.... Did I get lucky, maybe maybe not.... I will go back and order the large and definitely a person for the ride home.... It will be interesting.... But this is a true review.... Thanks to the guys who made the pies....“

“Great food, family friendly dining. Love this local treasure“

“I went to Pezzo Pizza with three children under 5, and the staff was just incredible. They were so, so sweet and accommodating — not always an easy task with little ones, I get it! I felt completely at home, and so did the kids. The food was really good too, which made the whole experience even better. It’s rare to find a place that makes dining out with children feel easy and enjoyable, but Pezzo Pizza really delivered. We’ll definitely be back!“

“Came in with a party of 12, food was fantastic and waitresses were attentive and friendly! It was a great dinner.“

“Excellent food and service. Our staff holiday luncheon has been held there for years. The staff gets a choice - and their choice every years is to continue to go there!“

“Best pizza in Morris County - Great staff and great food“

“Pizza was amazing and calamari was out of this world“

“What a great Pizza Discovery. First of all, you cannot get any better Customer Service. The Family owned business was highly engaged the moment you walk thru the doors. They have been in the Food Business for 50 years and at this location for 30, so they understand the importance of customer engagement. Their great attitude alone would have me wanting to go back because they are such nice people. Small Family run business, it doesn't get any better. But it does here, the Pizza was excellent and the Homemade dessert knocked it out of the park. The Pizza is unique in that it made like a traditional Neopolitan style where the crust is wet and has some sag at the start of the slice. This is not usually the style with a deck oven Pizza slice, but they pull it off because the dough is so fresh. Perfect blend of cheese with an excellent homemade sauce. They are tucked away in a mini mall in Peacock, but once you make it there once, your taste buds will bring you back. Thank you for a great experience.“

“Really great slice. I started visiting Chester 25 years ago as a young kid. The thinner than average crust at Bella's stood out to me even then, but still feels true to NJ Style pizza which I strictly classify and golden brown and crispy crust/bottom which achieves those wonderful golden brown micro bubbles. I'm normally skeptical of pizza joints which use a mesh tray to cook, however this place is quite the exception. The mesh tray might be their secret to that really awesome bake on their crust.“
