We just held our office holiday party at Aquaviva, and I can’t say enough wonderful things about this restaurant. The entire staff was incredibly kind, gracious, and attentive from start to finish. The food was absolutely outstanding. The chicken was the most tender chicken I have had in a very long time. The penne vodka was amazing. The sausage and peppers were spot on perfect, and even the bread and salad were incredible.
The restaurant itself was beautifully decorated for the holiday, classy, warm, and welcoming. They even added extra special touches in the section where we were having our function, which made the whole event feel even more special. They were so flexible and accommodating with our plans, and we truly appreciated their willingness to make everything work seamlessly.
All of us from VCH absolutely loved having our event there, and we all agreed the food and service were amazing.
Aquaviva is a class act. We will absolutely be back.

By far the best Italian food around!!! My wife and I go twice a month for the last 4/5 months. If you haven’t been it is a must go. The black label pork chop Is out of this world. Want to go back now just thinking about the place.

The food was absolutely delicious. I never had very high expectations when I go out to dinner because I'm an excellent cook so I've been told the food here was spectacular. We already made plans to come back.

The food and the service is absolutely excellent. The meatballs are the most moist delicious meatballs ever.. I love chicken franchise, and they are one of the very few places that knows how to make it correctly. My friend ordered lasagna and another one ordered cheese tortellini and said it was unbelievable.. I highly, highly recommend this Restaurant. The staff could not be nicer. They were wonderful…

From the moment I made a reservation for 7, I knew it was in for a special night. So kind on the phone and even warmer personal attention at the establishment. The food was authentic and DELICIOUS!!! I will definitely be coming back.

Food was very good - meatball appetizer was excellent. Pork chop cooked perfect. Great menu options. Can be tight in the dining room and gets a little loud. Drinks were good too. Service was excellent. Make reservations because it can get busy on Friday and weekends
Amazing experience from start to finish! The food was absolutely delicious. We started with the Gamberetti shrimp dish—wow, so flavorful! For the main course, I had the linguini carbonara, and it was just as impressive. Our server was truly delightful and incredibly helpful with her recommendations. Definitely a must-visit spot for anyone craving authentic and delicious Italian cuisine.

Had dinner there last night. Service was great with special notice to out server Denise. Tipped her accordingly. Other staff removed used dishes in a timely manner. Meals arrived hot and portion size was perfect. This was our 4 visit to them and always had great dinning,

4 of us went there last night not knowing reservations are recommended. We were able to be seated at 5:30 but told (not so nicely) that there was a reservation coming at 7 for this particular table! I almost walked out after that comment was made. Other than that, the food was delicious and our waitress was great!

**Review for Shannon at Aquaviva**
I recently had the pleasure of dining at Aquaviva, a charming Italian restaurant in Hamburg, NJ, and I must say, Shannon's skills as a server are nothing short of extraordinary. From the moment we were seated, the experience was impeccable.
Shannon's expertise lies in her exceptional service and her ability to make fantastic recommendations. She was attentive, knowledgeable, and made us feel incredibly welcome. Shannon's warm and friendly demeanor, combined with her thorough understanding of the menu, ensured that our dining experience was seamless and enjoyable.
We started with the Shrimp B. appetizer, which Shannon recommended, and it was cooked to perfection. Her suggestion of the veal chop with a light buttery garlic wine sauce was a standout, and the pork bracciole was a delightful nod to traditional Italian cuisine. Shannon's recommendations truly enhanced our meal, making each dish a memorable experience.
What sets Shannon apart is her dedication to creating memorable dining experiences. She took the time to explain each dish with enthusiasm and detail, making us feel special and well-cared for. Her ability to manage the dining room with grace and efficiency ensured that our meal was smooth and enjoyable from start to finish.
The dessert, a beautifully presented tartufo, was the perfect end to a fantastic meal, thanks to Shannon's spot-on recommendation.
Shannon's outstanding service and her knack for making excellent recommendations make Aquaviva a must-visit. Whether you're celebrating a special occasion or simply enjoying a night out, Shannon's efforts will leave you wanting more. Highly recommended!
