50 Best Italian Restaurants near Stanhope

“I ordered from Carlos' for the first time through DoorDash. I had the best Pasta Primavera in cream sauce ever!! The veggies were perfectly cooked. Not an onion or bell pepper, which I was grateful for. Broccoli, sliced carrots, peas and fresh mushrooms. Great portion too!“

“Safe and yummy for my GF/DF daughter! Their extensive vegetarian, GF and DF options work well for our family's needs.“

“Beautiful alfresco dining weather permitting. Dinner never disappoints all selections excellemt. Best mussels ever. It’s not about the mussels but about the sauce which is FABULOUS.“

“We went last night to celebrate NYE at Rosie's... the food was delicious, however we did not get our dinner until 10:45. We arrived at 8:30. In fact, our table was last to receive each course of the meal, and it was just too slow. The bill for 4, with tip, was $650, which is too much to receive such poor service.“

“We had a wonderful birthday celebration meal here. Our server Rob was excellent!!!“

“Wonderful menu with a beautiful selection of delicious food. It’s hard to decide which one to order! Fresh and made the old fashioned Italian way, with love!“

“Best pizza in town. Also better than 90% of pizza in NYC. My family loves Enzo's Pizza.“

“Excellent food, cocktails and atmosphere.“

“What a find! We are local but this was our first time here. Been going to the nail salon near by for years and decided to try the restaurant with friends! It is now my favorite restaurant and not only near because it is near by.

Can't wait to go back and try more from the menus. The Supa de Pesce was spectacular. Fresh and delicious! Service was great as well! Can't wait to return and try some other items on the menu! As a pescatarian this may well be my new favorite restaurant and being local
Is a bonus!!!“

“Thank you Sapori for the amazing food you made for my family Father's Day party! The Baked ziti was so cheesy good, the green salad fresh & crisp, bruschetta was crunchy & lots of topping, & shrimp scampi garlic yum! the service was so friendly! Many Blessings to your family from Ken & JoAnne Betz xo“

“Little Nicki’s was wonderful. The food was delicious and presentation was beautiful…wonderful atmosphere very friendly. Victoria gave us great service. And the owner Dom was delightful. Will be back real soon…“

“Fabulous food. Honestly don’t think there are many restaurants who can beat the food quality. If you haven’t tried it, you should.“

“I have switched to getting my pizza here on Fridays after work. It's convenient for me & my family who are picky about their pizza, love it. I've been very happy with the light, crispy crust, the sauce is delicious & we like how the cheese melts right into the crust. They even make 2 slices for me with just sauce, no cheese. Most pizzarias won't do that. I recommend you give them a try.“

“Small but excellent Italian deli with all the classics. The Italian and chicken cutlet hero’s were on point, quality of the meats and cheeses were on the level you’d expect from a shop that is importing many of their ingredients directly from Italy.

The $3 Parmesan and prosciutto arancini were a great snack to add on as well. Look forward to going back and working my way through the menu.“

“The food is awesome on both sides! Shabo and family are wonderful hosts! We love NY Pizza and Monte Casa!“

“Visited this restaurant with our friends, Eddie & Kathie, who live in the area and we had a marvelous time. Cocktails, wine, main meals and dessert were great as was the ambiance and the hospitality of Dina, who we met, her sister and the entire staff. We live about 50 minutes away but we will make it a point to return in the not so distant future.“

“This is a great restaurant. Great food, great service, lovely interior.“

“A Hidden Gem in Wharton That Keeps Getting Better!

This evening we had a truly wonderful dinner at Reno’s Pizzeria and Restaurant in Wharton, NJ. From start to finish, everything about our visit was top-notch. Our server, Shirley, was incredibly attentive—friendly, prompt, and made sure we had everything we needed without ever feeling rushed. What really stood out, though, was that Reno himself came by to check in and ensure we were enjoying our evening. It’s not every day you see that level of care and pride from an owner, and it absolutely elevated the experience.

We started with two fantastic appetizers—the eggplant rollatini and little neck clams in marinara sauce. Both were delicious, fresh, and beautifully prepared. For entrees, we chose the mahi mahi in mango sauce special and the shrimp scampi over linguini. Each dish was cooked to perfection and seasoned just right. Compliments to the chef—truly excellent work in the kitchen!

We ended our meal on a sweet note with the mini cannolis, which were perfectly crispy and bursting with flavor.

Although Reno’s (formerly Maria’s) has been a staple in town for some time, their recent expansion into a charming sit-down dining area has added so much to the local dining scene. It’s cozy, welcoming, and a perfect spot for a relaxed and satisfying dinner. Reno’s is a real asset to Wharton, and we’ll definitely be back! (PS It's BYOB!)“

“A happy accident. Traveling home from the airport my wife and I took the exit looking for some fast food. We took the wrong exit and when turning around we found this place. Wow! The burger I got was delicious and the stuffed arapa was amazing! What a good find!“

“To be fair, my rating is over 4. It's more like a 4.6 since 1 of us 6 mentioned a slight negative about the flavor of her chicken. And our per person cost was about $50. I expected that, but that's okay. The sights outside were very nice. The grandchildren enjoyed themselves which is a plus. If you have a boat, you can actually dock it at the Windlass and order a meal. They also have several cabana looking coverings along the dock which can be reserved so you can enjoy your meal there. My wife noticed that the seating can glide forward and back.“

“Just moved here from NH. Got it to go. My husband and I loved the food for such a reasonable price. We live in Sparta and this place is only 2.5 miles from our new home! Yea!!“

“The food here is outstanding & delicious! You must try the Sicilian Grandma's Pizza. The crust was amazing as is how they make a Sicilian slice of pizza. It's the right balance of crust and fresh ingredients without it being overpowered with dough. The salad we had was delicious too. Everything so far we had here is just phenomenal as is the customer service, staff & owner. Definitely go and check it out!“

“I truly am so excited about this restaurant. Me and my fiancé moved over a year ago and we kept trying pizza places and kept getting disappointed. I saw a post about this place and was skeptical because of all of our previous experiences with food in this area. PAISANOS DID NOT DISAPPOINT. This is the best take out in this area hands down. Thank you so much for putting so much love in your food.“

“Best pizza, chicken fingers and sandwiches around! People are terrific and prices fair for the quality!“
