“Wow. The double grilled chicken over ryans grandmoms home made gnocchi’s & emmys secret light vodka sauce. I almost ate it with my hands! Complimented with a slice of fresh bread out the oven and washed down w a healthy twist on ice tea by Peak. Refreshing to say the least! I’ll be back again tomorrow to try their hot honey roni slice well done. My mouths watering already“
“Consistently a great pizza. They have a nice selection of slices ready for lunch. Subs are generous, fresh and reasonably priced. Entrees are an absolute bargain and I haven't had them all, but what I've had has never disappointed. Service is always attentive. Delivery is generally quick. Speaking to the owners, the place is about to get a facelift which will only improve the experience.“
“No complaints about the food ever but Oscar needs to have a lesson on etiquette and customer service, otherwise he’s in the wrong damn business. He’s very disrespectful. That’s it. Multiple people I know say the same exact thing and because of that they won’t go back.“
“I had the Octopus and Calamari in a delicious broth. I enjoyed it very much. Two family members had the Scallops special and they said it was very good. The other family member had the pork chop special and he loved it. Try the muscles appetizer, it’s phenomenal!!! Our waitress was knowledgeable and very polite. The dining room is clean but a bit cramped. The place is a bit small and noisy but it was a nice meal. It’s a byob establishment, bring some wine or beer and have a good time.“
“I've never had pizza that tasted like it did ever before. It was almost novel at first, the sweetness of the pie. But as I kept eating, the bites got better and better. Our large pie was finished in about 10 minutes, maybe less! And the shrimp cocktail was on point too. Was easy to get a seat at the Lima bean shaped bar. It was fun to sit like that. Overall, great experience. Next time I'm back in NJ I'll be seein y'all!“
“We came on a whim for some dessert. The kind hostess told us she had a seat for us and we got right in, so that was nice. Even though it was quite busy. Our waitress, Brooke was so sweet and overall very friendly and warm. The dessert was delicious. Especially the pecan tart! Yum. We will be back.“
“Phenomenal sandwiches and other italian fare. Fried ravioli are must-trys. The sandwich selection is HUGE, and you can have them make any sandwich you like. I had the Mel Brooks (pastrami, corned beef, swiss, cole slaw, Russian dressing) on a panini. Absolutely delicious. Needed about five napkins as it was so juicy and savory. Will be coming back repeatedly and will try the italian egg rolls next time.“
“Amazing meal. Ivan was our server. Went out of his way to tend for our every need.Good was cooked to perfection. Artichokes & Non as meatballs for apps, Short-rib & Chicken Scarpiello for entrees.Will be back. Frankie, you killed this! Love it!“
“We had the baby artichoke salad and mussels as appetizers and both were fantastic. Presentation and taste were both great. For the entrees, we had the halibut and also the daily special, which was a red snapper. All entrees came with side dishes, but we also got a side of crimini mushrooms which were very tasty. This restaurant is not inexpensive, but it's worth it for a special occasion.“
“Great place to enjoy a nice casual, comfortable, and professional place to eat. I enjoyed the service, and it was B.Y.O.B. I recommend a nice night out with your lady, she's worth it. Take her here, and make sure you can afford it..worth every penny!“
“Olivia’s II is an enchanting Italian restaurant which I was delighted to discover. Everything about it made you feel at home and cared about as family. It is one of those places whereby you might be having a difficult day only to have that change by the hospitality and quality of food. I always enjoy the pizza with sausage and anchovies as well as the Brooklyn pie which is also “heavenly”. The chicken parmigiana with linguine, garlic and oil alters your feeling state and makes you smile.It is delicious! I have never been disappointed and frequent this wholesome haven regularly.Dietary restrictions: The food is cooked to order and they also have vegetarian and gluten free options.“
“This is a 5 star establishment!! Thank you guys for being here !Parking: Huge parking lot next door. A-little busy during the day but after 5 everyone leaves the office complex next door . But even then he’s got a couple reserved spots for BELOs right next door .“
“Our group dined early and it was initially quiet. As the restaurant filled up, it does get louder. Food was phenomenal as usual. The Sea Bass entrée was really enjoyed by two of us and the Burratta appetizer & Harvest Salad were quite nice.“
“My first visit to Porcini was a wonderful experience, we went for a 3-course prix fixe Valentine's menu and loved every dish. We are already planning a return visit to work through the regular menu. Wonderful service and everything was delicious!“
“A deli with an extensive menu. The sandwiches are stuffed and delicious. I coild only eat half of my chicken cordon blue. The mushroom soup was fantastic. There's seat yourself seating, and the place was doing nonstop takeout when we were there for lunch. Definitely going back!“
“I’ve only gotten take out from this place, but goooooooshdarn is it delicious. We’ve tried four of the specialty pizzas, all of which elicit a happy dance. The general tsos pizza has been my favorite so far, definitely a must try. If you asked my boyfriend though, he’d say the money pie is the sure winner. At this point I’ve accepted that you cant go wrong here“
“My dish was delicious ?. Clean place and good parking space. We went early. Server was nice. Not many menu choices which is why I gave 4stars. One other note bread was hard and cold. It would be nice to have soft warm bread ?. (This is my opinion no reflection on rating) Atmosphere was fantastic.“
“We gave it 5 stars as we like down home, mom and pop locally owned Italian restaurants and it did not disappoint as the decor was just how we like it, Homey and Warm.Since our beloved Tuzzio’s in Long Branch closed due to Joe retiring we ventured to Red Bank to the New Corner Italian Restaurant and after passing this establishment for 22 years we stopped in carrying our own Wine….yes it’s BYOB.I ordered the chicken parm with a side salad and spaghetti and my wife ordered Zuppa de Pesci, it was all very flavorful and authentic, we will be back.One last thing Stephanie the waitress was awesome.“
“Food is phenomenal. We rarely eat Italian in restaurants since our family are such great Italian cools. But with 4.9 stars, definitely decided to try it.Bread was served warm, with delicious soft butter ( not that hard wrapped butter so many places serve),Clams oregenato were the Best we ever had.For entrees, we converted 2 of the other apps into main melas.The eggplant rollatini was served over pasta. Wonderfully thin eggplant. Super flavorful cheese. And marina sauce was spot on.The other app turned entree was the Artichoke hears and spinach over pasta. The hearts were amazing, served francais style. I want to come back just for this dish!We were too full for dessert! ?Considering the quality, I thought the price was reasonable. I am happy to pay more for such a well prepared meal.Thank you! We will be back!“
“We found this spot last minute because the pizza place we were headed to had a 30+ minute wait- and I’m so glad they did because the food was fabulous. I’ve lived in the area for over 40 years and go to the same places that have become Jersey shore institutions when we get the thin crust pizza craving but La Lupa rates above them all. We ordered the mussels marinara, chicken and margarita pizza, garlic knots that were the size of my hand and even dessert! Just wow. The staff and possibly owner were super welcoming, friendly and we just could not get over how attentive they were. He made the marinara extra spicy for me for my mussels and the sauce even challenged my Nona’s (sorry Nona). The thin crust pizza was wonderful. Just the right amount of toppings, great sauce and wonderful dough/crust. We loved the food so much we asked if they deliver to ensure this becomes are go to pizza delivery from now on! The only reason they got 4 stars for atmosphere is because it’s a small little place with minimal tables as it’s a pizza place from a venue perspective with restaurant menu that I can’t wait to continue to try!“
“Dinner at Toscanella was perfection! I had lasagne comparable to my homemade. My husband had a huge portion of eggplant Parmesan. Entrees came with a healthy mixed salad. Loved it! Everyone was friendly and attentive. Prices reasonable ,BYOB and great meal. Our new favorite!“
“Best mussels I've had in a long time. Big, meaty and the red-sauce was nice and chunky. Perfect (like La Strada used to be). Also, the cheeseteak I had was probably best I've had in NJ; bread was perfect, lots of meat and flavor. Amazing, top-notch food for such an unassuming place.“
“Great date night place amongst just general dinners, celebrations, etc. BYOB. It smells delicious as soon as you walk in, the ambiance and setting is beautiful. The menu is simple yet elegant. Got the burrata to start and split the cacio e Pepe and the salmon dish. So good!“
“So glad to find a place that makes gluten free dairy free pizza that is so good. With certain dietary restrictions it can be so hard to eat out and maintain the way I like to eat. Their menu is very “diet restriction” friendly and their cauliflower crust is so good. You won’t miss the gluten or the cheese!Dietary restrictions: Gluten free, dairy free“
“Go Back In Time… (and I mean waaaay back) when every single bite of food, explodes with natural flavor, not spices but the genuine homemade tastes like Nonna made!Even the atmosphere brought me back decades; we walked in and were greeted by the owner with such warmth. I instantly felt like I knew him (though to be clear, I don’t). And I hope you can understand it) this is his kitchen, that he opens up to you, with love. The place- is like his home, like a big dining room. You’ll instantly feel at home, like family.He makes everything EVERYTHING from scratch and you can taste it!I had The BEST Pizza of my life! AndI had stuffed rigatoni in vodka sauce , my eyes rolled back in my head! There was so much but it was outta this world!You gotta go!Vegetarian options: There’s tons to choose from. They’ll make what you wantKid-friendliness: It’s very family friendly“
“Fantastic. Nice selection of prepared foods and pantry staples in a not-gigantic space. Super helpful staff, and maybe owner(?) helped me find what I needed, carried it to my car, and let me know if I call ahead on a future visit, they can get me what I want the next day. I haven’t tried my take out items yet but they look goooooood!“
“Delicious food, always very fresh & made with love just like home made. Owner John is very friendly and courteous. Our new go to place. Thank you John. You are a great addition to our local community. I highly recommend for everyone to try this restaurant.“
“This was an absolute hidden gem! We were trying to find something midway for our friends meeting us and decided to try it. What a pleasant surprise! Our waiter was super nice and provided great service. They even accommodated a special request of clams on the half shell, and they were great. Shrimp scampi over linguine was tasty and lobster ravioli was delicious and even came with half a lobster tail. Desserts were great too. Definitely will be back. Ambiance was a little dated, but it was clean including the bathrooms.“
“Best place for pizza in the area. Food is consistently great no matter what you order but specifically their bruschetta slice and vodka slices are out of this world. The people who work there are very kind too and no matter how busy the place is the service is usually pretty fast.“
“I went into Rockerfellas and I loved it. Rico and Renee are some of the nicest people you ever want to meet and have a good time with. The food is absolutely excellent. Fun for the whole family , they catered delicious meals for my family and I ,we loved it. My kids love Rico we always have a very nice time and the customers always leave satisfied .“
“First time here. Visiting my cousin. The service and professionalism were present along with great atmosphere.I had the Veal parmesan Chop with a delicious pasta. My cousin had the Halibut, which was another tasty dish. We also had the Calamari first for an appetizer. It's delicious with a slight kick with the sauce.Go and have a great Italian meal. You won't be disappointed.“
“I love their pizza. Great crust and toppings (sauce and peppers) Their White Pie is good. I got mine with Broccoli. The Broccoli pieces were big which I had no problem but if you prefer smaller maybe ask them to cut them smaller.I also got their Fried calamari, which I did not like too much because it was mix with Fried Octopus, I wish it had all ring Calamari .“
“We started with a couple of appetizers, fried chicken wings, and the fried mozzarella triangles. Which were really tasty. Then we ordered the Margherita pie and the Carnevale (meat lovers). They were perfectly done and had such a delicious sauce. We look forward to going back again soon.“
“I usually pick up my orders due to the condition of my pizza when I order delivery but I ordered in tonight. I was pleasantly surprised to find my pizza not sloshed to one side, the cheese to sauce ratio was perfect! I don't usually write reviews but I had to let it be known that Chiafullos is on the up and up! I will definitely be ordering again!“
“Great fresh food! I had the grilled chicken Cesar salad! My granddaughter and boyfriend had the cheese steak! Everything was so fresh and was awesome! The chicken in the salad was delicious!! We also had the garlic knots!Parking: Large Parking lot on the side of the building!Kid-friendliness: Tables outside to eat. It was a nice day so we sat outside!“
“Busy little spot. I love the complimentary bread. It came fresh out of the oven. So good. The lasagna didn’t look like the most appetizing dish but it was very good. I liked the flavor. The meatballs were decent. A little bland but my son loved them. The beet salad had more mixed greens than beets. Pet peeve of mine. The branzino was ok. The zeppoles were awesome. Get them with nutella. Service was great and I would come back. Check it out!“
“This place is definitely worth trying. Every time we go there, I get something different, and they never disappoint. The owner, Anthony, is very sweet and personable. He greets and chats with everyone who dines there. His staff is great as well.“
“Was visiting the area last week and had no idea what to eat. Saw this place had high ratings and gave it a shot. Lemme tell you, they earned these ratings! Affordable, filling, and delicious. Reminded me of my aunt’s cooking growing up. Home style cooking and great portions. Now where I’m ordering from next time I’m in the area! Love it!“
“we have been eating at an ordering/catering for years! The food is always amazing! The owner John and his staff especially Mike are always so welcoming! Chicken parm and penne vodka are the best! Also, always so charitable catering our sporting events at our local school events!“
“Krispy Pizza offers a delightful dining experience with its delicious food and excellent service. From their crispy crusts to flavorful toppings, every bite is a delight. The staff is attentive and friendly, ensuring a memorable visit. Highly recommended for pizza lovers!“
“The BEST pizza and food hands down. Freshest ingredients all made with love. Excellent Salads, Sandwiches and Pasta Dishes. And don't forget dessert at Del Pontes Bakery and Del Ponte's Creamery too! Everything at Del Ponte's block of Heaven is TOP NOTCH.“
“I Was there with a party of about 40 women last night for a Christmas get together and the Food and service were great! We had a wonderful time and will return! Thank you Lana for a wonderful night with friends.Dietary restrictions: WAs very accommodating being gluten free“
“Ordered here for the first time after searching for a new pizza place when our favorite spot went out of business. Ordered a plain pie and a focaccia deep dish style. Both were fantastic! We are so happy to have found this place and can’t wait to order again soon.“
“This was our first time there. The place is nice and so was the staff. Our waitress was very good. They give you hot bread when you sit down. I had spaghetti and meatballs. It was good and I loved the meatballs. You get 2 good size ones. My boyfriend had the linguine with white clam sauce. He enjoyed it! We will definitely be going back there again!! Thanks!! Cathy“
“We had the most amazing experience with doughboys, ordered some food for catering, our guests loved it, from the moment we placed the order till the moment we picked up the food it was a very pleasant experience, and the food was amazing, thank you very much for a great catering experience, we will be seeing you more this year“
“Food was excellent. Large portions. We ordered the stuffed meatball & bruschetta pomodoro for apps. 2 of us had the special Chicken Rolletini which was huge and the chicjen was so tender. My husband had the pork Osso Bucco & other guest had Ckn Parm. Desert I had the Creme Brulee. I will say it was crowded so the noise level was high. We actually had to shout to talk but would definitely go back again.“
“Food was good, a little expensive. We had a gift certificate we purchased online and at first the Tinton falls restaurant said that was for the coney Island restaurant and did not want to take it. Showing him the gift certificate did not state Coney Island only, he did accept it. That was the only issue that the did resolve. “
“This was such an amazing experience! George made sure my family and I were well taken care of and delivered nothing but grade A service. The owner Pasquale should be very proud of him self and servers for delivering such a breathtaking experience. I felt like I was with my Italian grandparents again who sadly left this world and really made me feel like I was in nonas kitchen. Happy Easter and thank you for this amazing experience. You have gained returning customers.Dietary restrictions: Plant based options. Italian "sausage" broccoli Rabe was incredible“
“A great find! Love the creative menu and the food continually impresses - whether the seafood, steaks, or traditional Italian. The Bolognese and the Calamari are always on point. The service really stands out, especially Juan and the attentive bus staff.“
