The food was fantastic I highly recommend. First time eating carbonara and it knocked my socks off. We had the special apple dessert which was to die for as well as the meatballs

One of thee best, most authentic Italian restaurants in all of New Jersey, and the tri state area for that matter. Love and respect for old world Italian simplicity in every creative dish.

Every dish I’ve tried here has been truly delicious, and you can really taste how fresh the ingredients are. It’s become my wife and I’s favorite spot. The staff and owners are so friendly and welcoming, making you feel right at home. We’ve celebrated Valentine’s Day here and also took a cooking class, and both experiences were unforgettable. I’m really happy we found this hidden gem and look forward to many more visits.

This is our favorite restaurant! The food is authentic Italian, and every dish delicious. The staff and owners are really friendly, making every visit a great experience.

It’s a small, cozy place, and it’s BYOB, so don’t forget to bring your favorite drink. Make sure to call ahead and get a reservation, since it can fill up quickly.

They also offer cooking classes, and I totally recommend trying one. Claudia is passionate about sharing her recipes, and she takes pride in teaching. It’s been over two years since we took the class, and we’re still making and loving those recipes at home.

Would definitely recommend it for great food, friendly people, and a fun cooking experience!

Whether it’s going out with friends, on a date or to celebrate a night with family, From Scratch has always exceeded our expectations! If anyone in my life is looking for a dinner recommendation it’s always this spot - along with their Cacio e Pepe and Nutella Pie. You couldn’t go wrong ordering anything from here, and I always enjoy the new specials to change things up.

Outside of the food the service is friendly, accommodating and always helpful. The pasta is truly delicious and I always leave happy and full. I look forward to our next visit in the near future!!

Ordered delivery, eggplant parm dinner cost $24 listed, $32 for delivery and tax. They gave me one slice of eggplant. Utter ripoff. It wasn't even good.

I ordered ziti Carbonara. What a disappointment. Carbonara is a rich cream sauce. What I received was a watery sauce with no flavor at all. It was all watery as sauce. That’s not Carbonara sauce.
Terrible cook and dish. Will never order or go again. It’s all show. Not Authentic Italian food.

Loved all the pastas, especially the pesto sauce was amazing. They also agreed to bake their popular nutella pie, on request, for a birthday.

Was ok. I’ve had better at similiar made-from-scratch places. Flavors could’ve been more bold. Had high hopes for the squid ink tortellini but truthfully I tasted none of the flavors as described in their menu. BYOB and the service are big positives and reason for my 4 stars.

Best authentic Italian food in Ridgewood!! I always love the carbonara and Nutella pie for dessert! Everyone who works there is kind, knowledgeable, and cares about your dining experience. I couldn’t recommend this place more!
