50 Best Italian Restaurants near Ringwood

“They are a great company to work with and I love the awning. We ended up needing an awning that extended out 13' as we we recently installed a new deck that gets a lot of sun. I found a bunch of awnings that extended out 10', but the longer awnings were harder to come by. I found some, but I was not confident. I ended searching the internet, found Alutex, they came by and we ironed out exactly what I needed. The awning is a roof mounted 20' x 13'. The awning makes the deck such a nicer space now as when we have people over in the summer the sun won't beat down on us. You'll be happy with this company as they care about their customers and product.“

“Lovely elegant ambience and great food/service“

“Cupsaw Market has amazing food! My family especially loves their breakfast sandwiches and burgers & fries. We believe their Taylor Ham, egg, and cheese sandwich is the best in the area. Above all, we love the family that runs the Market and very much appreciate the community environment they create, embrace, and allow.“

“Best pizza in NJ!!! I still dream about the taste 35+years after eating it. I have moved all over the US and have never found anything to compare to the superior taste or quality of their food. Absolutely love it! 😋“

“I get delivery from them and they’re always fast and have the best pizza in Ringwood. The other places aren’t bad and no disrespect to them but this is my go to place. They have a great selection of gourmet pizzas too. The online system is also super convenient and the delivery is always fast and the driver friendly. I’ve had friend rave about how my parties have the best pizza and its thanks to Luigi’s.“

“Yes..Staff, Service and Food always great! Have been dining here since they opened. We enjoy the Jekyll and Hyde calamari and the spiedini appetizers. Anton makes a great rack of pork and filet mignon. We ended with cappuccinos which hit the spot. 👍👍👍👍👍“

“Tonight I had the pleasure to dine at Bici restaurant in Ramsey, NJ. From the minute I walked in, I knew I was going to like it! You are greeted in such a warm and friendly manner. One of the owners, Marcello makes his rounds around the room speaking to his customers and making you feel at home. Everything I ordered was delicious and the waiters are so polite and attentive. Pleasant atmosphere and I will be back again. Thank you staff for your hospitality. It’s a BYOB. It’s a small restaurant with outdoor dining. Definitely 5 stars!!!!!“

“Albert’s’s has been a go to favorite for many years and Albert is an excellent host. The food never disappoints and the service is always great. I recommend Albert’s HoHokus whole heartedly.“

“Best place in greenwood lake for sure I just stopped in customer service is fantastic pizza is unbelievable and so are the sandwiches very hard person to please so good I went through 15 mins of getting a 2 step verification to come on here and write this review 10/10“

“From the moment we walked in, the host greeted us like old friends and walked us right to our table — I instantly had a good feeling, and I was right. Our server was awesome — super friendly, knew the menu inside out, and was on top of everything all night.

The menu is classic Italian but with a twist — way more interesting than your standard North Jersey Italian spot. The ossobuco was fantastic (if I had to nitpick, I’d say the risotto could’ve used a touch less water and a heavier hand with the parm). The clams were fresh and baked to perfection, and my son devoured his ravioli. For dessert, the bread pudding was absolutely unreal — honestly worth the trip alone.

Safe to say we’ll be regulars!“

“Every time we go to Lavagna, the owner and his staff are always gracious and accommodating. This past weekend, my family and I were looking for a place to go after my Mom's wake. It was after 8:00 pm and we thought we would try Lavagna, knowing that they may not be able to accommodate the 12 of us as is was late and Friday's are usually very busy. We asked and they went out of their way to seat us as close as possible and served us with a smile even with two picky kids in tow. The food was delicious, as always. Thank you Lavagna staff for a relaxing, delicious comforting meal!“

“Absolutely amazing. Julia was our waitress and she was very attentive but not overbearing like others can be. She knew when to come and check on us and when we just wanted to be. Food was as always, delicious.“

“Outrageous food, I had the veal chop and it was delicious. I highly recommend this restaurant.“

“Monica‘s restaurant is a great place to eat delicious food. Very friendly professional, hard-working staff.“

“Cracker-crust pizza! Birchbeer!“

“Came here for the first time and enjoyed the double veal chop special - cooked perfectly in a demi glace sauce . Service was great - quickly took our order and served in a reasonable amount of time. It was BYOB so we were able to pair our meal with our favorite red wine“

“Vengo spesso da La Cambusa per una pausa veloce, ma non trovo il locale sull’app Coverflex; sapete se accettate i buoni pasto?“

“The food and service are excellent. This place is great!! I shouldn’t be saying this because people will go. There is alway a line at the door even with reservations. But it moves quickly.“

“My wife and I recently celebrated our 4th wedding anniversary at From Scratch, coinciding with the restaurant’s 10th anniversary, and it was an unforgettable evening that exceeded every expectation. From the moment we stepped into the warm, inviting space, the staff made us feel like honored guests, with a special nod to the milestone celebrations—both ours and theirs. The atmosphere buzzed with a joyful energy, perfectly balancing sophistication and comfort, as if the restaurant itself was toasting a decade of culinary excellence. The four-course tasting menu was a masterclass in flavor and creativity, each dish showcasing the kitchen’s dedication to crafting everything from scratch. I began with the beef tartare, a delicate yet bold starter. It set the tone for what was to come: precision and passion in every bite. My wife got the eggplant caponata for her first course, a vibrant dish that was both rustic and refined. It was a testament to how From Scratch elevates humble ingredients into something extraordinary. The handmade raviolis were an absolute highlight, each delicate parcel bursting with a silky ricotta filling. The pasta was so tender it practically melted, a labor of love that spoke to the restaurant’s name and ethos. We couldn’t stop raving about the texture—perfectly al dente, yet impossibly light. The mint added a hint of freshness to the dish, that I was originally hesitant about, but I’m happy I gave it a go! For the main courses, my wife got the lamb. Perfectly cooked to a rosy pink, it was fall-apart tender, and had a perfect crust on the outside. The dish was hearty yet elegant. Equally stunning were the scallops, seared to golden perfection with a buttery, caramelized crust. They sat around a small bed of caviar with purple mashed potatoes. Each bite was a harmonious balance of sea and earth. The meal concluded with a ricotta dessert that was nothing short of divine. The creamy, cloud-like ricotta mousse was paired with a coulis with ginger dough crumbs. It was the perfect sweet note to end the evening, light yet indulgent, with flavors that lingered long after the last spoonful. From Scratch isn’t just a restaurant; it’s a celebration of craft, community, and unforgettable moments. For our anniversary, we couldn’t have chosen a better place to mark the occasion, and we’re already looking forward to returning to see what the next decade brings for this culinary gem. Highly recommended for anyone seeking a dining experience that’s as heartfelt as it is delicious!“

“Always great food and friendly service.“

“Come with an empty stomach! Giant sandwiches, great quality meats!“

“Really can’t say enough about this place for family celebrations: Excellent friendly service, & a menu that has something for everyone, including accommodations for gluten free.“

“The food is always top notch & the Menu goes on for miles . You’ll keep coming back time after time.“

“We went to Travato’s Due last night for my birthday dinner and it was amazing! The food and service were top notch. My husband got the Filet Mignon Angry Joe and said it was hands down the best steak he’s ever had out. (He is hard to impress lol). I had the grilled salmon pesto and it was perfect. We also tried the shrimp beep and finished with tiramisu—both delicious!“

“I've used Sonny and Tony's several times for corporate catering. They are always on-time and everyone compliments the food.“

“Ordered takeout tonight. For takeout, I was very impressed. For how the food was though, it was fine. I ordered the snapper bellavista. The spinach that came with it was so bland. I get it is spinach but it should at least have salt and some oil or garlic. I got a side of potatoes for 7.95$. I couldn't believe the portion that it came with. There were 5 mini potatoes - I could not believe it. Such a ripoff and so ridiculous. The potatoes were undercooked for the most part and just tasted like salt and old oil. The snapper itself was really good and the sauce that it was topped with was delicious. I would definetley get it again. I have been to Andrea's numerous times over the years and I was definetley disappointed with this experience but I will keep coming back because the food is usually consistently good.“

“Just Janice, what can I say? Awesome environment great service, fabulous food, and the best. It’s a BYBO, especially for brunch Ali and her mom do outstanding job of cooking and servicing their clients. The staff is respectful and always attentive. If you’re in Hohokus stop by Just Janice. You won’t regret it breakfast Lunch or dinner but brunch on Sunday is the best.“

“The plain pizza pie from JP's is the best I've had. Just the right blend of cheeze and sauce. The crust was excellent too. I had it delivered from Door Dash and it arrived on time and piping hot. Good value.“

“Great food wonderful atmosphere , and for us lots of great memories. We have been going to Berta’s with our family since we were kids.🤙🤙“

“UPDATE: Theresa – Thank you for your response. We very much appreciated your heartfelt apology and you sending food over this weekend. Everything we had was delicious, and my granddaughter was very happy with her make-up birthday party! Everyone makes mistakes, and we thank you for rectifying the situation in such a polite and decent manner. I am updating my initial review as it is absolutely earned."“

“The absolute best pizza anywhere. The sauce. 😋 mussels fra diablo me and the wife’s favorite“

“YUM😊YUM BEST PIZZA IN RAMSEY HANDS DOWN... PLUS I'D SAY BEST OVER MOST ANYWHERE ELSE. MY ENTIRE FAMILY & I HAVE ENJOYED SALS SINCE 1970'S, WHEN HIS FATHER WAS 1st THE TOWNS PIZZA GUY & MY PARENTS HAVE CONTINUED ORDERING IT ALMOST EVERY FRIDAY MY ENTIRE LIFE. IN ADDITION, IT ALWAYS BECOME A FAVE OF ANY VISITOR WE'VE SHARED IT WITH, SO THAT WHEN THEY RETURN THEY ALWAYS ASK FOR SALS ~ HOW COULD WE SAY NO🤷🏻‍♀️!“

“Best pizza for last 30 years! Comfortable, Friendly. Always a favorite!“

“Best pizza I’ve had in years ! Great soups and the Philly cheesesteak Is amazing ! I never even liked it until I tried it here and now it’s all I want to order. Owner / host Ken keeps the place spotless“

“I have just moved into the area, next-door to my best friends! They brought me to Tony’s for the first time, and I loved it! I just ordered my first takeout order to feed my friends who were helping me move in and it was delicious, timely, and the friendliest service!“

“Aldo’s has amazing service, delicious food and drinks. We especially love the pizza and the salad with chicken is our absolute favorite. We actually crave it!! The front area is so wonderful, and I wish we could eat in that section, but they NEED TO STOP smoking the cigars out there. I know so many people stopped going there because of it. We moved to the side tables, but I got so sick from It last time. Some days the smell of the cigars wraps around the side. It’s horrible! Going to the side tables to eat doesn’t quite cut it because it’s so hot over there and hard and not like the nice front area with the shaded trees and pretty plants. Going inside is too dark and not the same atmosphere as sitting outside on a nice day. Please reconsider moving your cigar area to the back. Make a nice and pretty place to smoke in the back, away from your customers who are trying to eat. Please leave the front area for your patrons to enjoy. Also, maybe make the side more shaded with some trees and more greenery to make it more inviting and comfortable and less hard and hot. We would go more often if you made these changes.“

“I Sent my friend a Johnny's pizza for his 70th birthday last week. Unbeknownst to me, my friend was in the hospital during that time. I called Johnny's and advised them of this and they very graciously Sent a free pizza, celebrating my friends healthy return home. My old friend just finished the pizza, and shared it was delicious. Not only are Johnny's Pizzas Large, their kind Hearts are even Bigger! Bravo and God Bless, Mike C from North Carolina“

“Delicious asparagus dish with egg“

“Haven't been here in awhile. Decided to take my mom for birthday dinner with 6 people. Food was great, large portions. A pinch pricey. Service was good. So overall a 4 . My bill was over 400 dollars. My one complaint. A charge for refills? You make enough across the board with food and bar. Petty not to refill a soda or ice tea when it costs maybe 75cents total, syrup, co2 and water. Raise the price to 3 dollars and refill the easiest item to absorb.“

“Excellent food and service“
