Spano's Ristorante Italiano is a highly recommended Italian restaurant that offers delicious and authentic dishes. The menu is extensive and varied, with a reason to return for every item on it. The portions are generous, and the atmosphere is cozy and inviting, reminiscent of a traditional Sunday lunch. Dishes such as Sicilian pizza, meatball appetizers, and flounder oreganato are standouts, and the restaurant's classic New Jersey Italian charm has earned it a loyal following.
The staff is warm and welcoming, making guests feel like family. While wait times may occur, the owner's personal touch and apologies make up for the delay. The restaurant is often packed, and reservations are required. Customers have praised the friendly staff, the amazing food, and the overall dining experience. The Alla Vodka sauce, Chicken parmesan, Linguine, and Penne dishes have been particularly well-received, and the desserts, such as the Olive Oil Cake, are also highly recommended.
