Ordered takeout, asked if our meal came with bread, she said it did. My wife was excited about her gnocchi, she opened up and asked where was the rest? We each had 2 cute little pieces of bread. The food was good, but for the first time in my life, I was still hungry after eating Italian food.

We ended up here by chance and oh boy!!! One of the best places I’ve ever eaten!! The food was perfectly seasoned, it was hot and the flavor was absolutely perfect. We ordered 7 dishes and all of them were amazing. I’m completely amazed and will definitely come back soon!

From the moment I unwrapped my order, it was clear that this establishment treats takeout dining with the same care and precision as fine in-house service. The packaging was sturdy and thoughtfully arranged—compartments ensured that the pasta retained its integrity, the sauce was not compromised in transit, and the chicken remained tender and distinct rather than over-steamed. Even before tasting, the attention to detail inspired confidence.
The Penne alla Vodka with Chicken was, quite simply, extraordinary. The penne itself was cooked to a textbook al dente, maintaining a subtle resistance that elevated each bite beyond the commonplace softness often found in takeout pasta. The vodka sauce revealed layers of craftsmanship: a velvety texture that coated the pasta without excess heaviness, a delicate balance of cream and tomato, and a gentle heat that lingered just long enough to awaken the palate without overwhelming it.
The chicken—often an afterthought in similar dishes—was treated with remarkable care. Each piece was tender, evenly seasoned, and retained its natural juiciness, suggesting both quality sourcing and precise cooking methods. When combined with the sauce, the chicken provided a savory counterpoint that harmonized beautifully with the richness of the dish.
What impressed me most was how well the dish traveled. Many Italian cream-based sauces risk separation or greasiness by the time they arrive at one’s table outside the restaurant; here, the sauce retained its cohesion and elegance from first bite to last. It was a clear testament to both the chef’s technique and the restaurant’s commitment to ensuring that their takeout experience rivals in-house dining.
In sum, this was not merely a convenient meal—it was a thoughtfully prepared culinary experience, presented in a way that respected both the food and the customer. For those seeking the pinnacle of Italian takeout, the Penne alla Vodka with Chicken is nothing short of essential.

The food is outstanding here! The service was great. Unfortunately, it was a little difficult to have conversations at our 6 top.

I usually don’t write reviews but Mike (chef) at Genaro’s is so wonderful ! The short time I met him and talked to him I could tell how genuine and sweet he is. I had my mom’s retirement dinner at a place pretty much next door. When I called originally to see if he can cater it he called me back so quickly and helped me pick out the perfect amount of food . EVERYTHING was sooo delicious (and we are foodies ) when dropping off the food we were figuring out where to get ice and he offered his workers to go get ice for us from his kitchen(the restaurant ) … so nice! Also he said gave us plates bc I mentioned I didn’t want to eat on plastic or paper plates. I can’t wait to actually go and eat at the restaurant next time .

I paid $24 for gnocchi in vodka sauce last night, the portion would satisfy a child.

It's amazing about gennaro's meals. Chef Mike has a unique way of combining herbs and sauces to bring out the best in food. Va bene! Delicota! I hope my Italian's correct. It's the greatest!!

I don't know if you get a salad option.when you dine in, but I ordered 3 dinners for rake out and no side salads.
The food was delicious and the portions were a good size, but for the price a side salad and some bread could make it better
