“My family and friends very recently had a Celebration of Life memorial dinner there and they could not have been more accommodating. The food was great and the staff were there attending to all our needs. I highly recommend Romeo’s for any occasion. You won’t be disappointed!!!“

“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!“

“Nothing but the best food ever. Finger licking good!“

“We went to dine with this rag tag restaurant and the experience was awful. The waitress had no teeth and asked my son for his? At first we thought “hey maybe they are joking” then all of a sudden. They lady grabbed his front bicuspid. Needless to say - at that point we were concerned. Because we had a long day we were still hungry. So we stuck around. The next thing you know. The toothless individual brought another toothless friend and tried to get my tooth as well. At that point. We know. Time to get out of here. We were cooked. Unlike the food at this gross place.“

“Stopped for lunch with hubs and friends. We we're looking to share a pizza, this is NOT that place. Yes, personal size for dine in. We opted for sandwiches. 2 ordered the roast pork, broccoli rabe, sharp provolone and both finished and raved how delicious 😋 Other 2 of us ordered the cheesesteak with LTO, red wine vinegar and olive oil, I added light mayo. The rolls these sandwiches were served were fantastic 😋 The sammies were NOT "packed" with fillings like a cheesesteak joint. Nicely presented with homemade potato chips. Quality of ingredients is huge because I can't eat a lot. The red wine vinegar and olive oil was top notch. I use red wine vinegar almost daily 😋 I would definitely go back for the same meal, about 1hr from my home and worth the trip 😋“

“Last night was our first time at Pastiamo's and our experience was fantastic from start to finish! The food was absolutely delicious -- Burrata, Gnocchi Pesto, Penne with Walnut Sauce and Rigatoni Ragu were especially everyone's favorites. The staff was polite, attentive, and so patient, even when we stayed past closing time. Thank you, Francesca and team for making our night so special. I highly recommend this restaurant, and our family will definitely be back!“

“hi everyone yes I stopped by Kings Pizza many of times they have a good service they're super clean friendly people they always ready to figure out what exactly you wanted to order very good place I completely recommend it“

“Moto elegante e confortevole“

“Excellent pizza 🍕 and a abundance of choices to select from - new to the neighborhood and I think we found our new pizzeria“

“I was up by Trenton for a dentist appt and went to get my lab work up there instead of by my house as I had time. I stopped by D&C as it looked interesting and I was hungry af. I drooled over much of the store (and enjoyed a sample!) before I settled on a peanut butter bomb. It took me 2 weeks to finish it, it was that rich. But OMG was it delicious. I somehow didn't lick the wrapper it was in, but it was by far the best dessert I have had in many years. I am sad this isn't close to me, but then again, probably for the best as everything there looked amazing! The line was long and everyone anxious to have lunch. I would definitely recommend! Part of the reason for my review is that I can search back and recall the name...if I am ever in the area...or in the mood for a road trip!❤️“

“Good food in a friendly atmosphere!“

“Excellent food and service. My new favorite restaurant.“

“The food and atmosphere are AMAZING!!! Everything is so fresh and you can tell it is all made with the best ingredients. A great place to go for authentic Italian food and a plus is it's a BYOB!!!“

“We held our mom’s celebration of life here, in the Russo Room, and it was perfect. I was able to connect my laptop to the TV to show our slideshow even. The food was great and the staff cognizant of food allergies. The space is lovely without being somber. Everyone thought it was a beautiful event.“

“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“
