    Bob took care of us! Ice tea was lovely. I loved my crab pasta dish ! We split a house salad and eggplant rolatini. A perfect day! Gorgeous view of the water & such a pretty venue.

    The venue and waterfront scenery is great! The food is also good, but I'd Recommend asking for a suggestion from the server to make sure you pick the best option for your meal! Thanks to my server for helping me out!

    What a beautiful restaurant with truly lovely views that immediately set the tone for the evening . The experience itself was just as wonderful, and knowing it is family owned and operated really comes through in the high level of service. We chose to sit on the enclosed patio to maximize the scenery , and it did not disappoint, especially with them experimenting with live music that night . Indoor dining looked equally charming and would be perfect for a romantic night out . I ordered the Seafood Carnevale with marinara sauce and penne, and it was fantastic, with flavor that felt perfectly balanced and truly memorable . I would highly recommend that dish without hesitation. One of the Carlucci sons stopped by our table to welcome us and make sure we were enjoying ourselves, which felt thoughtful and personal, though his name escapes me since there are two with the same name . After dinner, there is a lovely walkway behind the restaurant ‍ that's perfect for a relaxed stroll. Parking was ample and convenient , which made the overall experience even smoother. Highly recommend dining here , and I'm already looking forward to visiting again .

    This beautiful restaurant was the perfect venue for our daughter's wedding this past weekend. Danielle was just the best. She's a pleasure to work with, knowledgeable, and kept everything on track. The view from the gazebo on a splendid autumn day created a gorgeous setting for the ceremony. The reception was wonderful and the food delicious. Danielle, Rosaria, Carlo, and Carlo made us feel like family and we couldn't have asked for a better day. Highly recommend for any celebration or just for dinner! Oh and PS- the tiramisu is not to be missed! Amazing!

    Easy to make reservations and the hostess was very pleasant on the phone and in person. She remembered that this lunch was for our birthday and a nice card was waiting for us at the table. They also served us their cannolis and fresh fruit with a candle to make a birthday wish. 2 candles would have been better but, nice touch! The restaurant wasn't busy but the patio that overlooks the river was much warmer than the inside section. We chose to stay there for the open and airy ambiance. Our food was pretty average and I would have preferred more choices of pasta to go with our veal and chicken entrees. The portions were huge and so was the salad. Our server was a bit slow but he was covering most of the guests. Once we got his attention, he aimed to please and really, all our needs were met. A handsome man who may have been the manager ? appeared after our meal was finished asked us if everything was okay. Overall, it was a fine afternoon, thank you!

    Spaghetti and meatballs not on menu
    Carrie S.

    Dinner was nice. I ordered the braciole which I thought was delicious. The meat was cooked perfect. The sauce and pasta were fresh. Enough for two meals so the price wasn't terrible. My husband ordered spaghetti and meatballs off the menu. Don't do it! He learned the hard way. It wasn't good. The service was ok. They did provide a birthday mini cannoli which was so nice!!!!!!

    Sunday lunch they search full menu with some specials. Attentive service, great lighting and nice water front view There are many parties in venue. Had pop octopus as appetizer - great sweet bbq flavor and appealing presentation. Me and my friend both had salad add protein options: Greek salad with salmon and wedge salad with chicken, both large portioned. I enjoyed my experience here

    Went for valentine's day, loved the decor, staff was very friendly. Service and food came really fast.

    I admit, I've been a fan for years. When I decided to check them out for my wedding I was hoping for the best. And WOW, did I get it! They recently did some amazing renovations that made it beautiful, which was a lovely surprise. I had a lot of complicated things I wanted done and they kicked butt stepping up to do it all, even figuring out a work-around when something I planned wouldn't work. The room for the ceremony was gorgeous and they somehow got all the seats in. They let me do some set-up the evening before when we came for the rehearsal for things like family pics of loved ones to remember. They handled passing out the stunning flowers from Sunset/Stein Florist on Sunset Road in Willingboro, NJ. to the bridal party like pros. I'm disabled, and needed to come in using the handicapped ramp, but didn't want to be seen until I came in to walk the short distance down the aisle. They put a curtain at the short hallway there, so I could get ready in private. They work with a fabulous DJ, named Terry O'Sullivan, with whom I spent many hours crafting just the right music to create a stunning atmosphere. He was very generous with his time and knowledge. And clearly knew exactly how to do things. And the food and the service were top shelf! The hot hors d'oevres served by circulating staff were a bit hit. The prime rib was to die for, and I got good reports on the veal milano. I ordered the salmon, but forgot to say I wanted it rare. The wedding coordinator, Danielle, was so responsive that she noticed I wasn't happy, and asked if she could do anything. In a trice I had a new piece of salmon, perfectly cooked. The staff was perfect. The food was yummy, we were all surprised by how delicious they made the penne with vodka sauce. The ice cream dessert to be served with the stunning cake from J&B Bakery in Burlington, was everything they promised. And when we were done, a flood of staff descended on the room to pack up everything we needed to take with us and pass it out to my new husband in the parking lot near the ramp, making it super easy for us to get packed and get home. YES, THE NEXT TIME I HAVE AN EVENT IT WILL BE HERE. I've been to other "halls" for big affairs, but they truly can't hold a candle to the experience we had at Carlucci's Waterfront, where Rosaria and Danielle, and all the staff, make you feel like family. PS. The improvements continue, with new spacious restrooms coming soon!

    Calamari
    Jenn M.

    Order: Fritto Di Calamari, Sunset Mango Tilapia, and Apothic Red Pros: the mango spinach salad was very good and the attentive bartender gave me a healthy pour of wine. Although it was closed due to the cold, I can imagine the outdoor patio is quite lovely when it opens up. Cons: the calamari was a little undercooked for my liking and the tilapia was bland, but this was easily remedied by putting some lemon on it from the calamari

I rounded down instead of up because of my personal experience that night, but I could see that half star going either way. ANYWHO, Cucina Carini.....a local pizza shop that has an attached dining room that, while pretty small, is also pretty nice. BYOB, which we didn't know heading in, and unless we are missing something, the only beverage options are either water, or whatever YOU bring. (We weren't asked what we would like to drink, nor saw any beverage options on the menu.) SO, water it was, which was fine with ME anyway. ALSO, another thing not listed on the *dine in menu,* is that they DO have a kids menu, which consists of what you would think it does; chicken fingers, fries and the like. We sit and get to work looking over the menu. We land on crab ravioli for me, (crab meat, asparagus & plum tomatoes in a sherry cream sauce), potato gnocchi for The Misses (With spinach & bacon simmered in a gorgonzola cream sauce,) and the chicken fingers meal for The Little One. Entrees comes with soup or salad (soup for her, salad for me). Where CC is losing some points is on service. Our server was fine, but the kitchen was very mixed up. When we sat, our Little One was being a kid, so while getting her situated, we ordered all of the mains. About 5 minutes later, when the server brought the bread over, we asked to order an appetizer of fried mozzarella (which I assumed would be the fresh mozzarella, breaded and fried, but instead was the packaged Sams club type breaded sticks variety..the menu says "Fried Mozzarella, Breaded mozzarella, fried golden crisp & served with marinara sauce. Nowhere does it mention "sticks." *shoulder shrug emoji*). In rapid succession after that, the kids meal came out, and then, and I mean probably 3-4 minutes after ordering the mozz *sticks,* THEY hit the table. Still no soup or salad. The mozzarella sticks were made suspiciously fast. Maybe 15-20 minutes later the ENTREES hit the table. The server does recognize that she never brought the soup or salad, and offers to put them in To-Go containers. *second shoulder shrug emoji* The entrees themselves were good, not great. Decent flavor, but both dishes underseasoned. A little salt would have gone a long way. I had to add parmesan cheese, red pepper flake, and some salt myself to coax a better flavor out of my ravioli. The Misses's gnocchi also needed some doctoring to bring out some true flavor. The kids meal was a generous portion size, but then again, it WAS $13, so..... We decided to actually do dessert, as The Little One wanted cake, and I had seen a picture of the Peanut Butter Bomb, and absolutely wanted to try it. One bomb, and one Lemoncello Cake slice was the order. The Lemoncello cake was good, but again, lacking in deep flavor. You got a hint of lemon, then the rest of the bite was chewing on air. It speaks to the lightness of the cake crumb, but the flavor needs to be punched up. The Peanut Butter Bomb however; no notes. Delicious. Chocolate mousse on top of a peanut butter mousse, on top of a chocolate cookie type base, the whole thing covered in chocolate and peanut drizzle (?) and sprinkled with peanuts. Definitely the best thing I ate here. SO, all things put together, it wasn't a bad night. Service was a little slow, which was only really a problem because we had a squirmy 7 year old. I probably would have appreciated the pace if it were The Misses and I just sipping a bottle of wine. But, the kitchen course timings and mix up, plus the muted flavor of pretty much every dish knocked it down a few pegs. I could see Cucina Carini easily being a 4 star spot and a go-to, "our spot" type place, it just didn't get there for me on my one visit. It's a little far from us, but if I'm in the area, I would definitely give it another shot.

At the end, we split an order of Tiramisu and it was delicious but my recipe is better lol. Theirs is not homemade but it was tasty. Not bad for $7.99 but the portion was kinda small.

We arrived just before 7, and despite it being very busy, we were seated after just a brief wait. Shortly after being seated, we were greeted by our server who happened to have one of the most enthusiastic personalities I've ever had in a server and was extremely knowledgeable about the menu and offerings. He made some incredible recommendations and had no issue tweaking dishes to our request. We were started with warm, fresh bread. Each table was equipped with quality olive oil and other necessary accompaniments (cheese, red pepper flakes, salt, pepper) so everyone could season their dipping oil to their liking. We decided to skip appetizers tonight, something we rarely do, and it ended up being a great decision as the entree portion sizes were huge. Each entree came with a choice of salad, Caesar or House. I went with a house salad, and looking back I wish I selected the Caesar. Our server graciously, upon request, brought out anchovies to serve along side of the Caesar salads. For dinner, we all ordered something different: Chicken Marsala, Veal Parmigiana, Chicken Francese, and Eggplant Parmigiana. Everyone elected to have theirs served with pasta aside from me. I chose mashed potatoes and some of the best sautéed green beans I've ever had. My fiancé's dad requested to have his veal parm served with homemade tagliatelle instead of capellini which our server had no issue substituting. I thought the presentation of each dish was desirable. Everybody enjoyed their entrees but struggled to finish as aforementioned, the portions were large. The veal was tender and I appreciated the chicken is hormone and antibiotic fre Everyone agreed Barone's food, atmosphere, feel, space, and service would make for an outstanding option for my fiancé's bridal shower.

We held the event on the patio, and it was an absolute dream. There was plenty of space and flexibility to truly customize the event. The wait staff was professional, attentive, and incredibly helpful, ensuring every guest felt taken care of and that everything ran smoothly. The food, as always, was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented, which really impressed everyone. The atmosphere was cozy and inviting, making it feel special and personal, yet relaxed at the same time. From start to finish, the team at Tutti Toscani made the event seamless and enjoyable. I would highly recommend hosting your next celebration here!

In passing we mentioned it only when asked by our server if we liked it that it had lacked flavor. To our surprise she took it off our bill. This is the kind of service you really don't find anymore and one of the reasons I like coming back to tutti toscani. I ordered the veal which is always good, large lump crab on top. My husband got the trio of pasta but only enjoyed two of the three. The rest of the table raved about the mushroom special almost licking the plate clean - I am not a fans of mushrooms so I'll trust them. Overall I always enjoy coming here, I don't feel like I've been ripped off when the bill hits the table and service is usually good. I do enjoy sitting outside better than inside when able it's a prettier feel to me.

    We've been to Casa a few times over the past year and have also ordered takeout, but this visit was…read morea little off. When we first arrived, we were greeted by a gum-chewing hostess and seated right away, which was fine. It took a few minutes for our waiter, Juan, to come over and take our order. We didn't order any appetizers, so our salads came out quickly. After that, we waited...and waited...and waited. The delay was long enough that the manager came over to ask how everything was and whether we were interested in dessert. I had to tell him that we hadn't even received our meals yet. When the food finally arrived, everyone else enjoyed their dishes--veal parm, chicken franchise, and a few others. I ordered the special, described as a porterhouse pork chop with potatoes, vegetables, and a mushroom cream sauce. Thankfully, I asked for the sauce on the side, because it was very sweet--even the waiter mentioned that. The pork chop itself was cooked the way I like it, but it was not a porterhouse cut. A true porterhouse pork chop should be bone-in with both the tenderloin and loin sections. What I received was more like a pork loin cut, and while it was listed as 16 oz, it didn't appear to be anywhere near that size. Moving forward, we'll likely take a break from Casa

    The service was a bit slow as it looked like they only had 1 server so she didn't come over for…read moreabout 15 minutes after we were seated which was fine since I couldn't find a menu online to check ahead of time. They had a pineapple burrata appetizer special which was something I haven't seen before so that immediately caught my attention. It was a decent size and ate like a salad for my husband and I to share. We got the bubble bread for an appetizer too since we've never had it before. For my entree, I decided on the Chicken Frangelica which gave a sweet and savory flavor. My husband had the butter fish which was tasty. Give them a try if you're in the area. The decor inside was nice and they have an outdoor seating area.

    Went to Bar Tacconelli's tonight hoping to be WOWED, but WOWED I was not! The service was good but…read morethe food excellence that Tacconelli's usually delivers was not present tonight. We ordered 4 small plates. Meatballs which we had from Vince before and loved, not so much tonight. They were cold, bland and very dense. Gnocchi which were mushy and lacked flavor. The arancini were over cooked (fried). The Sicilian pizza was the best, then again it should be Tacconelli's is known for pizza. Dessert was ok tiramisu. but the cappuccino was horrible! I'm not even sure what the served me! It was like mud, thick and bitter with no froth. They need to go back to the drawing board and start over. We actually cancelled a future reservation we made with friends. We will not be going back anytime soon!

We then got a berry mule off the happy hour menu. Honestly next time I would get the berry mule and try the other cocktails on the happy hour menu. It was really good. Off the happy hour menu we got the flatbread, white bean dip, empanada and chicken fingers. Highly recommend the flatbread and white bean dip. For dessert we had the ala dude cookie skillet. I would go back for the cookie skillet itself. It was delicious. Overall it was a beautiful place in an area you wouldn't expect (next to a dunkin' donuts). The waitress was very kind and explained their advanced menu. But again since we just ordered off the happy hour menu it wasn't bad. Just to let you know our bill was under $60 for 2 people with multiple plates and drinks! Highly recommend :)

Very tasty bread (I used most of it sopping up my pasta sauce!) I could not NOT get the Pear (pasta) Sacchetti - soooo delicious. A definite go-to for me here - wowee!!! My besties Seafood Manicotti was damned amazing too! Very rich but perfect! We ended our evening with decafs. Our server was lackluster and MIA a lot. My poor friend's dish wasn't hot enough and she was nowhere to be found... (wasn't overly busy at 5:45 pm either). My/our only ding.

It's December and we were unwillingly seated in the bar area at a table in the glass enclosure which was easily 10-15 degrees colder than the main area. We did not want to sit there--not only was the room cold but the table was metal patio furniture against a fully glass-enclosed space, not even a tablecloth to help take the chill away-- and when I asked the hostess if another table was available she looked me in the eye and stated a firm "no," matching the lack of warmth in the room. Alrighty then. People at the other tables along the same glass wall were dining in their coats. Didn't management notice this? On the bright side our server (forgot his name) was very good, thoughtful and anticipating our needs. Our dinners were good, matching previous visits, but had gotten cold by the time we were taking our last bites. Instead of ending the evening with a cocktail we left and went to the bar at another Italian restaurant nearby.
