We picked the right place!“

“Excellent place, I have pretty much given up on buying lunch out because the disappointment ratio has become so high but today I decided to give it another try and just deal with the disappointment of another overpriced less than good sandwich. I work all over northern NJ and it has become very hard to find a real Italian deli however, today I stopped into Angelina's and although I already knew what I wanted I decided to ask what they recommend incase there was a special or maybe they have a best seller. They recommended "the Salvatore" which was exactly what I was after. The sandwich was the correct size and packed full of cold cuts. They didn't do the usual "let's keep making the product smaller but charge more" that you see everywhere. They make a true sandwich and charge a reasonable price. if you look up Italian deli in the dictionary there should be a picture of Angelina's its exactly what anyone who is over 40 years old remembers as a true New Jersey Deli. Thank you for a great lunch! I can't wait to get another job in that area so I can stop in!“

“Food was Delicious, perfect atmosphere and excellent service!!!“

“My husband picked up your margarita pie today for us to try as first time patrons. Oh My God !!!! We have been Mootz’ed !!! The delicious sweet sauce, the perfect texture of the crust and the cheese …… phenomenal!!!! That was hands down the best pie we have had in ages. Can’t wait to come back and try more items.“

“Consistently excellent meals with a very attentive staff.“

“i would never recomend a place that goes out of their way to be incredibly ableist on a page for autistics who typically have quite a range of food aversions and needs“

“We love this place and have eaten several times for lunch. Food is consistently good and inventive.

My only warning is - if you come for dinner, especially on a weekend, be ready to wait. It's free seating so there's lots of groups standing around waiting for a table to open up. The real bottleneck seems to be their pizza oven. We got our meal almost immediately except for the pizza - had to awkwardly wait for 20 additional minutes as people eyed our table.“

“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.“

“First meal out with a friend for a long time and didn't disappoint. All three courses were amazing along with the wine, beer and friendly staff. 10/10“

“Very cute restaurant with happening local NYC vibe. Food was good, not as good in my opioid as reviews portrayed and what we expected. That being said, the service, attentiveness of the checkins by owner and overall vibe merit 4 stars in my book“

“Matthew 's Restaurant is 1 of the best restaurants in North NJ if NOT The Best. The food is always Delicious & Service is excellent. Beyond that, the atmosphere or aviance is excellent. The vibe & energy is first rate positive fun & culinary enjoyment. I believe that this fine dining experience is also driven by the owner Matthew who is usually in the restaurant greeting guests & helping out. When you visit Matthew's you'll have a great time and it'll feel like you're on mini-vacation from the stress of every day life while seemingly enjoying the warmth of family. It may be a cliche but it's definitely true. 10 stars ⭐ out of 10.“
