In the 20 years we have dined at Teresa’s, it has been one of our favorites. However the last 2 times the service in terms of being greeted and waiting for a table has been difficult and dismal. Arrived early 5:30 was told we’d be seated in 20-30, it took over an hour and only after pressing for a table. The attitude was arrogant, only to find out there were actually 2 empty tables.Manager was rarely present or in front of restaurant, the place seems to be run by kids. Don’t go on the weekends! The restaurant group Terra Mona is excellent but Teresa’s is lagging

We were a party of eight. They do not take reservations, but we did call ahead of time to be added to their wait list. We went for lunch and there was a table waiting for us. Wasn't super busy. The food and drinks were good. We got the fried stuffed zucchini blossoms, fried calamari, and the burrata with peach & hazelnuts for our starters. We ordered two of each. For our main meals we had eggplant rollatini, chicken parmigiana, balsamico (pasta dish), penne pecorino, perfetta (pizza), and margherita (pizza).

1-2 years ago Teresa’s was one of my favorite spots in Princeton. I am not sure what happened but the food quality has really taken a dive. It used to be very fresh and well curated dishes, now it is mediocre. Still a decent spot, but nothing like it used to be unfortunately. The wine is very good, and I recommend the pasta over pizza.

Love the place. They changed the menu last week and took a lot of favorites out. The fried potatoes, gnocchi sorrento, the spicy arrabbiata sauce. The tomato as well as mushroom burrata was so good. The fig burrata on the menu now is Ok. Can you please bring these back in the menu. Love the restaurant and the service!! We always get an amazing server. Just not enough vegetarian choices on the menu any more
We ordered calamari, pizza and pasta. We dinne outside. The place inside looks nice, the outside patio looks nice but I feel it was a bit dirty. The calamari taste good but it seems like a small portion, pizza was delicious and the pasta was good. My server was friendly.
Kid-friendliness: There was no kids menu but the staff was very friendly with the kids.
Went canoeing with my buddies for a few hours and then hit town for some grub. The place we wanted to check out was closed so Teresa’s was our backup. The best thing about here was the wine. We shared a bottle of a Piedmont varietal and it was lovely on a sunny afternoon outside of the restaurant. From there it was a downhill excursion. It was our server’s second day on the job and she didn’t know how to open the bottle so we had to show her how to use a wine opener. We ordered an app of calamari to share and it was gummy, but even worse is that one of my friend’s entrees was served even before the app arrived, off timed. The pizza here is overhyped, it wasn’t the worst but I’ve easily had better. Nothing stood out, not the dough, the sauce or the mutz. If I can’t taste sourdough action or a few charred spots I’m not impressed with a basic crust. I need that zing and this small pie didn’t have it. Plus they don’t have Tabasco here (or any hot sauce whatsoever) so I was extra extra irritated. I can’t enjoy a meal without it. What made it all better? Huge scoops of ice cream on a sugar cone around the corner at Bent Spoon.
Parking: Within easy walking distance to the restaurant

It was good but the middle of the pizza was a little mushy. Yummy though!!
Had a wonderful dinner here with my friends. The mushroom pizza was amazing! They have pizzas, pastas, and apps. Everyone in our group of 6 enjoyed their choices.

Decent food. Good pizza. Dough is average, but flavor is good. Bread is not warm and very chewy, which is a big disappointment. Service is good. Balsamic vinegar is horrible. Very watery.
Best food and customer service
