Great food and good portions with excellent service. Nice selection of salads and appetizers with perfectly made bread. We had Chicken parm, made to perfection, stuffed squash with lobster & crab which was delicious and presented creatively, Chicken Piccata, tender and made fresh. Great selection of cocktails and nice bar area. Valet parking only. I Suggest reservations. We'll be back!

Disappointed.. NOT same as in Brooklyn. Obviously they can't use same chefs. I wish I read the reviews before I spent all that money. Bolognese sauce was metallic and too salty. Rigatoni was overcooked. Homemade pasta was good but Sauce, not. Roasted garlic appetizer was not roasted correctly thus lost its flavor. Even the Miller on tap was too fizzy and off. Definitely need new cooks. And what's with the rotten egg smell as you walk in and out? I don't normally write bad reviews, but maybe someone will read this and take action and commenting. They can do really great here as the name alone will bring people in.

Beautiful quaint place with top tier service. Ambiance is wonderful, food is great, we had the fall soup, calamari, Gargiulo's salad, and rigatoni bolognese. Dessert was tiramisu and cheesecake. They were delicious. Wait staff and valet were amazing. The whole experience was delightful.

Appetizers and dinner were excellent, it's refreshing to enjoy a restaurant that prioritizes quality over quantity.

Service was excellent, very attentive and we never felt rushed.

We will definitely return.

I have been a regular patron of the original Gargiulo's in Coney Island for over 40 years! This was my first time sampling the food from the New Jersey outpost of this venerable establishment.
Full disclosure: My wife and I did not eat at the restaurant. I am recovering from emergency surgery, and my brother-in-law knew my fastest road to recovery would be via a Gargiulo's meal (or two). So he ordered some of my favorite dishes and had the restaurant ship them to my wife and me—from New Jersey to Utah!
First, the food. Sausage and broccoli rabe was prepared in the classic fashion—nice and garlicky. Our next meal was chicken Scarpariello, which was even better. It was extremely flavorful and the chicken remained tender even after a journey of two thousand miles! Obviously, we had to heat up the food ourselves, but instructions were included, and anyway I'm an expert at reheating food.
Now, the service. All the dishes were cooked, frozen, and packaged with tender loving care with insulation and freezer packs. They all arrived here in Utah in perfect condition. This is not something the restaurant typically does (or has EVER done) so the staff gets an "A+" for their efforts. I've still got a couple of meals to sample but I wanted to get this review posted to thank the folks at Gargiulo's for contributing to my rehabilitation (which is progressing very well!)

Absolutely outstanding!! Great atmosphere, great service, and fantastic food from appetizers to entrees to desserts! Have been to the original in Brooklyn many times over the years but this was our first time at Gargiulo’s in Tinton Falls and it did not disappoint. Spoke to Theresa at the end of the night and she was very welcoming and sweet. We will DEFINITELY be back! Not one negative thing to say about the entire experience.

This was our first time at this location. The food was delicious, the staff attentive. When we made the reservation we were fine with outdoor seating.
Upon arrival we were so disappointed to find that we were sitting in the parking lot , next to the valet.
Not to mention there is no sidewalk between the tables and the street, so cars were wizzing by, the valet was backing up cars less than 10 feet from our table. To make it even more stressful a car hit and moved the concrete divider that the table next to us was butt up against. Lucky no one was hurt. It really soured our evening and not one member of the staff came over to acknowledge the mishap. I am sorry garguilos but your outside seating area is a hazard and should be rethought.

We went to last night for our anniversary dinner and it was one of the best dinner experiences. The food was INCREDIBLE. We had burrata as an appetizer followed by a filet mignon cooked to perfection and shrimp scampi (I tried the pasta and sauce but not the shrimp) and we were blown away then they had a delectable dessert brought to us including a caramel crunch ice cream, a tartufo and tiramisu. The drinks were top notch. Our bartender made the best mojitos I think I’ve ever had and curated a whisky flight that was immaculate. The live entertainment by @zackjazz made the atmosphere absolutely perfect. I don’t think we could have had a better experience. We will definitely be back again and again.
