Wish we had come here sooner given the proximity to so many of our regular destinations - Kellenberg, the mall, Eisenhower Park, etc.... Happy to have this great value place on our regular dining out rotation list!

Excellent Italian food. Always consistent in taste and quality. Baked clams are probably the best I have had anywhere. Pizza is excellent and on point. Various shrimp dishes are flavorful and accompanied by perfectly cooked pasta. Service is efficient and congenial. We have been coming here for many years and find Borrelli’s is still one of the Best Italian restaurants around.

I held my sons baptism here and everyone raved about the food and overall experience! I love that its family owned and that even the employees care about the customers. Amanda was amazing and helped me through the whole process and took care of me and my guests. Everyone left full and super satisfied! If you're looking for a place to throw an event or even just to have a good wholesome meal, this is the place for you. Thanks Borellis!
