“Had a wonderful dining experience and can't wait for my rehearsal dinner here! Stopped in the other day with my mom to try the food out. Was very pleased with the service and the food. The owner was a delight to speak to and his staff was very kind and attentive. They were able to make accommodation for me (dairy free) and provided recommendations. The table came with bread and a spread. It was fantastic! We ordered pappardelle bolognese - wow so good! The pasta tasted so fresh! You can tell it was house made. We also ordered a sandwich to split. We packed half of it up, as we were so full. The portions are huge. Very happy with this place and very excited for my rehearsal dinner in November, but I'll be back sooner for sure. My mother in law wants to try it with how highly we spoke about it!“

“Brick 46 has been a go to spot for my family since moving to the area 2 years ago and the food never disappoints. That in mind we decided to host our 3 year olds birthday party here. Everything was executed perfectly. Our hostess, so sorry I don't recall her name, was awesome and made everyone feel at home. Lou, the owner, made everything easy during the booking process and my wife and I could not been happier with the outcome of the day. A huge thank you to Lou and the entire Brick 46 family!!!“

“The nicest Olive G. I've visited, the food is good, drinks are really good, everything is flavored and juicy.The plenty of room and parking lot however it was full.The dinning room is so warm, full of nice dresed people, the manager and staff in general were so atentive.At the begining we were waiting for the table but quickly they assigned one, we enjoy the meal, a little bit late but delicious. Miriam was our server, she did a great job, offered a great experience in the place.Prices are affordable, portions are really good. Kids can color a book and enjoy in a table they have!The only recomendarion is to add a little bit of salt to The Margaritas, it tastes different.“
“Amazing amazing food. The arancini balls were out of this world!! The linguini pasta and house garlic bread made the decision to dine in absolutely worth it. And not to forget, the staff here is very friendly and courteous. Will be back again soon. And yes Highly recommend coming here if you are looking for a fantastic dining experience.“
“When I arrived with my 4 year old daughter, I realized this restaurant may be a little more formal than we expected and not a place that served many kids. However, our experience was wonderful, and I can’t wait to go back. The staff treated my daughter so nicely & made her feel welcome, the food was delicious, they had a nice wine list, and a lot of care went into every detail. This is how a restaurant should be. Everything we ordered was tasty & well prepared, we had a nice swordfish appetizer and whole branzino that was filleted table side. I am looking forward to going back & trying more of their menu items.“

“Went there a couple of weeks ago with some friends and was absolutely blown away with the pizza , the quality of the food and the service ! I got the casino pizza and it might’ve been the best pizza I’ve had in morris county . Gianluca the owner also was so helpful with all and any questions we had, if you like Italian food this place is an absolute must !“
“I really really really like this place. I ordered penne (a form of pasta) with butter alongside my family, and I love this place very much. The penne is beyond the term exquisite and the butter with it was amazing. I can only say the downside is the physical appearance and even then I like it. It's a little cramped and it's relatively hard to navigate when with a group even though the place is small, but I genuinely love this place very much. Overall on a scale of 1-10, I'm giving this a 9.7 due to the small inconvenience of small size it that's what happens when your located in a strip-mall. Thank you for your service and food!!“
“Had a wonderful dinner date here. Great service and delicious food. Definitely coming back. I reccomend the veal parm. House salad had a nice blend of flavorful greens. My compliments to the entire team.Note, you may consume your own alcohol. They don't have it.Parking: It's a little bit of an odd left turn coming south on Route 53, but there's plenty of parking.“
“The food was absolutely amazing. The ambiance was delightful and the service was great. We ordered the lobster bisque and French onion soup as apps and it was the best we have ever had in our lives. Creamy, decadent, and flavorful without being overbearing. Our entrees were the mushroom risotto and the seafood sensebastion and these were also incredible and nice portions for the price. All in all it was a wonderful night and dinner. We will definitely be back.“
“Came here on Pi day 3/14 for a large plain pie and a grandma’s pie. The plain pie is 11.00 and the grandmas was a little higher. The style is thin crust and does not disappoint. The woman behind the counter was super friendly and nice to talk to while we waited. The sauce is sweet but not overly sweet and the grandma pie was super tasty. I will be back.“
“This place is... AMAZING!What a crazy amount of goodies in one store! Seems endless there's so much there. Anything sweet you can imagine and a whole lot more. This is one of those destination stores. Give your kids $10 each and stand back!The staff was really friendly and helpful, always smiling. Street parking is pretty plentiful.Definitely a place to go back to over and over.“
“I took my 90-year-old godmother out for dinner. There was an issue with the check, I want to give a shout out to Jeff, in management for handling our situation with professionalism, in a timely fashion and a smile.The Chicken Parm was great!!“
“I've been wanting to come here for so long, and for my Morris county friends who grew up in the Italian triangle (Belleville Bloomfield nutley) this is the best kept secret. This is the real deal, they even have nastos desserts from Newark. Super happy to order Easter pies from here and they stock my beloved San bernadetto iced tea! Owner and his family are super sweet and friendly.“
“One of the best pizza’s I have had in New Jersey. It’s flavorful, thin, crispy and made fresh to order everytime. The owner takes pride in making sure every pizza that comes out the oven is made to perfection for all of his customers. Great spot for a quick lunch or a nice family dinner!Vegetarian options: Has many vegetarian options and if not, the chef can customize to fit your dietary needs“
“We celebrated our 55th wedding anniversary at the Grato and are so happy we did. The staff went out of their way to make it such a special night. The service was fantastic and the food incredible. We will remember this night for many years to come. Thank you Grato for making our Anniversary so memorable.“
“Recently, I had the pleasure of attending a private event at Pucciarello's, an establishment that truly surpassed all expectations. From the moment we walked in, the ambiance set the stage for what was to become an unforgettable dining experience. The staff greeted us with warmth and professionalism, ensuring that every aspect of our evening was nothing short of perfect.The food at Pucciarello's was nothing short of amazing. Each dish that was served seemed to tell a story of its own, with flavors that were both bold and harmonious. The ingredients were clearly fresh, showcasing a commitment to quality that could be tasted in every bite. Whether it was the appetizers, main courses, or desserts, each dish was presented beautifully, marrying visual appeal with culinary excellence.“
“Do you like authentic thin crust Italian pie? I do! This is why I love their pizza. I love the bubble in the crust with just the right amount of cheese to sauce ratio. I always ask for very little cheese on my Margherita pizza and more sauce. They get it perfect every time. I liked it better than the pie I had in Naples.“
“The service at Locanda Vecchia is very good. We arrived a little early, but we were accommodated readily. Our waitress was friendly and prompt. It was a pleasure to have her as our waitress. My Verde salad was good. Nice glass of sauvenon blanc was delightful. Our dinners took a little while to arrive. It was a busy night there. The food was great. We enjoyed ourselves and hope to return.“
“Really cute café. The service was excellent and the food was really delicious. They have a really good variety and it is extremely clean and inviting with very convenient parking . My son and I shared garlic knots come and he had a delicious Stromboli and I had a wonderful chicken cranberry wrap.. he is very excited to go back with his friends.“
“Absolutely insane experience at Rosie’s!!! Wow!!! Food was SO delicious, and the ambiance was great too! I ordered the grilled octopus which was to die for, surf and turf and the most delicious chicken parm I have ever had. It was so good I had to buy some of Rosie’s famous sauce to take home :)I can’t wait to come back with some friends!“
“Service was quick, attentive, personally attentive and professional.Food was delicious. I recommend their bruschetta, the homemade bread was amazing. Great balance with the balsalmic vinegar, exceptional taste.We can't wait to comeback and see the new dining room once construction is complete.Parking: Depending upon the time of day, parking can be a challenge. There was plenty of spots in front on the street at 4:30 pm on a Tuesday.“
“Fantastic Italian sandwiches. Fresh ingredients, pleasant staff, and big portions. Can't ask for too much more from a deli. I haven't tried any of their bakery items and have always gotten my food to-go but they do have a wide selection of foods from every category, and have ample seating available for those wishing to dine in. Parking is a little weird as the shop is at the top of a hill, and the area tends to be swarmed with police cars. But the lot is big enough you won't have any trouble getting a spot. If you're looking for a sandwich recommendation, listen to what all the reviews are saying and try to the eggplant - you won't be disappointed. It isn't even just the eggplant, all the ingredients come together well. The mozzarella is extremely fresh too. They also have several other spreads and toppings you can substitute or add on if you wish if you prefer to customize your sandwich. Price might seem a little high for a sandwich, but the portion size makes up for it, and to be honest it's pretty in line with competitors.“

“The food here is DELICIOUS! We didn't have a reservation (this place books fast apparently, so make one!) but were kindly seated in between reservations. The bread in the beginning with olive oil was perfect, drinks were delicious and the main event was amazinggggg. Get the chicken parm!! This is the Italian restaurant you go to when you want a filling and flavorful Italian meal. The decor inside was lackluster but am looking forward to dining outside when it gets warmer out under the pretty lights.“
“I am giving Lucco five stars, but with a caveat. First, their food is outstanding. That's why they deserve the five stars. And I believe most reviews should be based on the merrit of the food and not on "how long someone had to wait" or "all the meals didn't come out at the same time".Anyone who has been here knows that it is SUPER LOUD in there, hence the atmosphere rating.My biggest issue is their takeout. I understand wanting to prioritize the patrons on location at the moment, that's legit money being made right there, however, if they do choose to go that route, they should either stop or pause delivery and togo orders during their "peak" hours. It's frustrating to place an order only to have to wait 30 minutes for it to be "accepted" and then being told it will be another hour before it's delivered. For me personally, no big deal, however, I can see that being very offputting for the majority of the food ordering public. Just my two cents as someone who is now 47 and has been in customer service since I was 14, a good amount of that time in the food industry.“
“Authentic Greek food down to the water. Super professional Gyros. Everything was delicious and Fresh. I tried a chicken Gyro and a Lamb Gyro. Both were the best i’ve ever had. The meat was seasoned perfect and tender. Gyros were filled to the max and were very filling with tzatziki sauce, lettuce , tomato , onion and even some French fries. I also had fried Lobster claws with a Remoulade sauce over cabbage slaw which was absolutely phenomenal and a chicken Souvlaki platter which was just as good as everything else. I didn’t make it to dessert but they had plenty of options from salads , Gyros, Greek platters and even flatbreads. I will definitely be back to try other things. Friendly service and lots of seating.“
“We came here on a strong recommendation from a family member. We were truly impressed with the quality of the food and the service. The menu offered many delicious classic Italian dishes, along with some elevated interpretations of the classics. We will absolutely return to try other items that this great restaurant has to offer! Do yourself a favor and eat here soon, and try the roasted pear salad.“
“A delightful dining experience at this BYOB. Probably the friendliest service we’ve encountered. Next door to a wine shop if you forget. Stuffed mushrooms were excellent, earthy with a very nice sauce. Specials of seafood w linguine (clams and crab) and a Parmesan chicken (chicken martini) were excellent. The homemade tiramisu was delicious and fluffy, to melt on the tongue. Excellent dinner. Service was perfectly paced.“
“Friendly staff, great quality food. Nice dine-in room set apart from the take out counter.Vegetarian options: Italian-style sautéed veggies ...YUM...my broccoli had great fresh flavor . (They also offer sautéed spinach and rabe.)Dietary restrictions: Gluten free personal pizza. Super happy with how light & crispy Roma's GF version is. Nicely done.Parking: I parked at a town parking lot around the corner. Spaces on the streets too.“
“Stopped by Palermo's with the family for the first time. We wanted to grab a regular pie, but ended up trying out a Fat Sandwich, a large pie, a few other slices, and a Caesar salad. The pizza was fantastic and their cheese is delicious. The sandwich was very good and the salad was one of the best I've ever had.We dined in and the staff was very accommodating. We also spoke with the owner who was very helpful and friendly.We thank you again for a wonderful experience from the food to the service. We can't wait to order from Palermo's again!“
“This place is a home run no matter what dish you order. Great service, with an even better product. I’ve had pizza all over the world, but their Margarita pie reminds me of the old country. You can taste the great fresh ingredients, and my son loves it even more than I do. If you haven’t been you must go! I love this place!Kid-friendliness: They treat my kid like the prince that he is. :)“
“Always excellent. Been eating here for years now and never disappoints. Service is always good. And Chuck treats everyone like family. We like to go early so it's not too crowded but reservations are a good idea. Love the Antipasto salad with meat with the BEST dressing (that you can take to go). Get it every time. Pasta ( rigatoni salsiccia & penne vodka) and chicken (Arturo, Marsala) dishes are a must. Weekly specials always worth a try. And leave room for dessert- NY cheesecake.“
“Today was the first time we ate out on a Holiday. Having Easter dinner @ Portofino's was the BEST!! We enjoyed a delicious meal, wonderful service and atmosphere without any 'clean up'. The food was served hot and appetizing. It couldn't get better. The entire staff was pleasant, accomodating and attentive.“
“Great food and strong drinks! Calamari was cooked well, and the garlic bread that came with it as an appetizer was cooked perfectly crispy. The pizza was dense and filling. I could see the rest of their food being great and would definitely go back. Overall, I give Reservoir Tavern a 4.5 out 5.“
“We love this place and I'm embarrassed to say I've lived here all my life and only started going less than a year ago. Their pizza is super thin and flavorful, the sangria is amazing, the meals are so good. We always have Isabel as our server and absolutely love her!“
“We have been regulars at La Cucina for over 6 years now. They're our go-to for catering as well as family dinners when we don't have energy to cook and over the weekend when we entertain. Fresh and delicious every time! Catering is timely and we've always gotten compliments on where we ordered from. Such friendly staff and so attentive! Highly recommend.“
“Loved pizza before, but cant anymore due to recent health issues. Love that this place has "no cheese" and "light sauce" as options! I know that "isnt pizza anymore", but it's closer to pizza than I recently have been having!Dietary restrictions: Options for no cheese, less sauce, etc. Excellent!Parking: 20 spots shared amongst a few businessesWheelchair accessibility: There is a ramp“
“We order from Mario's for our Religious School and sometimes social hour after services. This week we were supposed to get food from another local vendor, but even with confirmation, they did not show up and told us they forgot. Mario's to the RESCUE! I called them and they quickly brought us 10 pies and Saved The Day! Thank you Mario's! They are never late, the kids and adults love not only the pizza's but every dish we have ordered from them. We are lucky to have them in our community.“
“Our family discovered Dante's in 1993. Tommy and I enjoy going for dinner, but our family has catered so many parties there; most recently our granddaughter Aria's Christening on 2/17/24. We have catered our younger daughter Alex's communion, our Michelle's bridal shower, my Mom's 90th birthday and my 65th birthday there three years ago. Lisa has always gone above and beyond, and especially working w/Michelle who lives out of state; making Aria's christening perfect! We can't thank her and her staff enough for making my granddaughter's Christening fabulous on Saturday! The Vitale and Nolan Families“
“Last year: Good food, great service, and a comfortable atmosphere. Great find!A year later, I was in the area and went back. It was once again really good.If you are looking for a comfortable atmosphere and food that is straightforward, hearty and good, then I highly recomend Charlotte's Web.“
“We were actually a party of four which is what our reservation was confirmed for but for some reason your survey came in that we were a party of two so I just wanted to clarify that Casa Bella is one of the best restaurants in Morris county & I would venture to guess in all of New Jersey! Their food is high-quality & delish & their service is superb... always professional, courteous and accommodating! Excellent Italian restaurant!!“
“I love their sauce! One of my favorite pizzas in the area. My bf and I also love their tortellini carbonara and one meal is more than enough for us to split! Their chicken wings are good too. And if you’re looking for something a little different, try any one of their sandwiches (hot or cold) on a panini. You won’t be sorry. I enjoy the cheesesteak panini.“
“We came here from Staten Island not knowing what to expect, and we were pleasantly surprised. The owner and who I believe was the manager were very pleasant and personable. The service and food were excellent, and the prices were extremely reasonable. We will definitely return soon.“
“Searching around the area for pizza 2 places came up I decided to stop here . I was met by the owner on her own making pizza , garlic knots and a few more things . What a hard working woman. The pizza was amazing , the garlic knots amazing . My coworkers loved their meals . She chatted with us for a little bit , gave a little history , and how she takes pride in what she does and what comes out that kitchen and oven . Definitely recommend this place . Keep doing a great job and thanks for the great customer service . See you soon !!!“
“Meet up some old pals for dinner, good food and service also no rush on dinner, they let us hang around and catch up on life.Parking: Large!Kid-friendliness: We were kid less there, but there were other children around.Wheelchair accessibility: Nice ramp up into the building.“
“Even though Google says they open at 11 am. I called to push my luck and to my surprise they were open and I called them at 10:30 am! The owner of the restaurant Anthony picked up the phone. He is the most sweetest man I have ever spoke with on the phone. This is my first time ordering a huge order for my work place and he helped me plan everything and I was so nervous to because it's my first ordering for my work place and trying out NJ pizza. I only know NYC pizzas lol. I am getting off topic here. I highly recommend this place for anyone. They are so welcoming and you can definitely tell they care about their clients needs. Their pizzas is just as good as NYC.“
