One of my favorite pizza spots in Central NJ. Have been here a few times and posting my…read moreconsolidated review At any Pizzeria we have to try their classic Margherita pizza which was delicious . Tried some of their other unique flavors like Rafella which is a white pizza with a kick from the hot pepperocino paste making you want more with every bite . Tartufo had the subtle truffle aroma and flavor amidst the mushroom making it earthy and aromatic while the Cacio Pepe pizza was mediocre , Beet salad and Pear Gorgonzola salad options are a must try . For dessert don't miss the Tiramisu and the Flourless chocolate cake . The staff are extremely friendly and quick to take your order and bring the food out . The dining area is bright and spacious and they have parking in the back . It's a perfect spot to spend a relaxed afternoon .

We went here for lunch today. I can confidently say that anyone who rates this highly has not had…read morebatter brick oven style pizza so they don't know what they're missing. Nomad pizza is much better than this place. The pizzas were edible, but lacked good ingredients and they just weren't too good. An artisan pizza should used fresh ground black pepper not pre ground on the calico e Pepe... Also for some reason the tap water tastes like dirt. So overall save some money and try elsewhere...

First time back here since covid, and been looking forward to it. Upon entering the first thing…read morewe noticed was how hot it was inside. They sat us in a corner, no breeze and learned their AC and fan has been broken for years. Couple next to us sat down said its too hot and left in less than a minute. We stuck it out and was glad we did. Their take on an amaretto sour was very tart and vibrant, a new favorite. Reisling was nice and sweet. Main course was papardelli, fresh pasta. Fully enjoyed that. Friday special ia chicken parm, was cooked nicely. However when we discussed dessert we just were too hot to have another drink and have dessert which is a shame. Not sure why they haven't fixed this know air issue, they are loosing sales.... What kept it 4 star for us was the wait staff. Jordan was extremely friendly and efficient, as well as the other staff that took care of us. Would love to go back, but maybe in late fall/winter unless they fix their fan/ac issue.

But, I wasn't blown away by any of the courses, unfortunately. The only dish that stood out as being really good were the rice balls. Everything else was just average-and that makes me really sad because I have been looking to try this place FOREVER, especially since we had our wedding reception at their sister restaurant that closed almost twenty years ago--and their food blew me away. Collectively, we ordered calamari- bland, arancini-delicious, crispy eggplant-bland and dry. I ordered the crab agnolotti which was just, well.... bland. My mom's salmon seemed to be cooked well, we asked for medium and that's what she got. The tiramisu was good, and I am not generally a fan. The mocktail that ordered-basil gimlet was a nice balance of sweet and sour. Overall, really giving it a 3.5 but based upon comparison to my other 4 star ratings, I had to bring it down a bit. An overall nice experience, but since the food is the star... I'm not sure if I will return.

Bennie's has become our regular Friday night pizza place. Best place in town. Never disappoints…read more Perfect pace. Cheerful staff and owners. So Ive been watching some Dave Portnoy pizza reviews lately and he mentioned something called Detroit pizza. Never heard of it. Well, were here at Bennie's last night and there it was on the menu. So we had to try it. But first, for an appetizer with some wonderful viognier from the Rhone, we enjoy some lightly fried burrata in a light vodka sauce. Was cooked perfectly. Hot outside, still cool inside. Tasty sauce with just the slightest zip. We ordered a Detroit with pepperoni, hot honey and a dash of chili. Comes in an eight slice rectangle. Wow. Super flavorful. Cross between a Sicilian and a Chicago. Lighter and more "doughy" than a Sicilian but firm under carriage and generous cheese. Very filling we could only eat one slice each. Took the rest home for lunch. Yum. Love left over pizza cold or sometimes heated up in a skillet. We finished with their homemade cannoli. Perfecto. BYOB. Come early on weekends as the back room gets busy and sometimes loud.

I loved the atmosphere; it felt warm, cozy, and like just the place you'd want to spend an evening in October. Service was very friendly! Lots of smiles and suggestions about the menu. My friend and I ordered the skillet honey butter cornbread, the mini tacos, and the devils on horseback- bacon wrapped dates stuffed with blue cheese!! Yum! There was honestly no favorite amongst them- each one was perfect. We cleaned all three plates! Overall, the Rocky Hill Inn was worth the 45 minute drive. I'll be dreaming of my next trip here until then!

This visit to the Rocky Hill Tavern wasn't as good as previous visits. Service was still good but…read morereservations are an absolute must. The French onion soup is just as good and one of the best in the area. It's so good we had it when it was over 95° degrees outside and still worth it. They've changed the chicken meatballs in the last 2 years since I've been there - much less slaw (which was a unique highlight). These were dry and tasted overcooked and tough. My chicken Milanese was also overcooked and tough. The chicken was right at that cusp of brown to burnt with some pieces being burnt and difficult to chew. My husband's fried chicken from his sandwich (much much thicker piece of chicken) was fine so it makes me wonder if it was cooked at the same time. The prices are still reasonable for a nicer pub / gastropub which is appreciated.
