Sadly, they are selling the business, but I will recommend trying it before they do. I'm honestly scared. It's gonna turn into something else.. I hope whoever decides to buy this business keeps it the same. It's right at the end of KEARNY and such a welcoming place. The owners are always kind to my kiddos and very family friendly. It has an old school vibe, but it is perfectly clean! I highly recommend you give this place a try you won't be disappointed I promise.

(There's a pang of sadness when I see any of my old reviews that mention Clinton's iced teas. I…read moreguess I can find comfort that I drank entirely too many of them in my youth and even my own kids got to try them once or twice before the company went kaput.) Onward and upwards... it's now (almost) 2024 and while the the shelves are a bit more sparse than I recall and they got rid of their lottery machine (which seemed to bring in a lot of old-timers) - what I'm here for is their sandwiches. Specifically their #1 Italian. And I'm happy to report: they're still the best around. (And it tasted even better after a recent not-so-good visit to a Jersey Mike's in my hometown.) Besides their incredible subs you'll find the usuals (chips, soda, ice cream) and a few random items (aspirin, Chapstick). Cool crew behind the counter. Good pricing for such a quality product. Trying to find parking is still a nightmare. 'Enjoy every sandwich.' -- Warren Zevon (No truer words were ever spoken.)

I do not often review a place twice, but Appetizzio's is an exceptional take-out business…read more Everything you get is fresh, generously portioned, and a good value. This is another business I have spent some time ordering from during the shelter-in-place. They have adapted and worked as hard as possible to keep business-as-usually, even with some of the food shortages that are hitting the nation. One big bonus to me is how accommodating and friendly the staff is. They are always happy to see me (first name basis for all of us). They will make any order the way you want it if they have the provisions (and generally they do). They also crank the orders out pretty quickly considering items have to be prepared to order (no pre-sliced cold cuts, etc). Their provisions are exceptional (get some Fresh Mozzerella). If you have an issue with parking, you can get curbside pick-up. I generally like to park (even if I'm a block or two away) so that I can browse their market goods.

We finally made it this past weekend to Vinnie's Mootz for one of their special tasting menu…read morenights, and it absolutely lived up to the hype. If you're expecting a typical dinner, think again. The tasting menu featured around 12 courses, and by course ten I was completely full--but somehow still excited for what was coming next. Every dish was thoughtfully prepared, packed with flavor and very tasty. For me the standout of the night was the very first dish which was Vinnie's homemade mozzarella with tomatoes, which was so good that we even bought some fresh mozzarella to take home. The meatballs were also outstanding, and the steak and eggplant course was another highlight. After all that food, finishing with a cannoli just felt like the perfect ending. The atmosphere is casual and inviting, but the food is every bit as good as what you'd find at restaurants that cost a lot more. Live guitar music throughout the evening added to the experience created a nice vibe. My only suggestion would be maybe to turn it down a notch or two as it was a little hard to hear others at our table. Still a very nice touch though and all songs you would know. I always like it when a chef comes out of the kitchen, especially at a tasting menu, and Vinnie came out several times to chat with guests which was very nice. It just added a personal touch and showed how much pride goes into both the food and the overall experience and we got to hear his back story. This tasting menu is an incredible value and a great way to try dishes you might not normally order. Just remember to come hungry--and maybe skip lunch beforehand. If you can get a reservation for one of these tasting nights, don't hesitate.

The owner is a lovely man who takes pride in his cooking and customer service. It's always nice to see "regulars" meet daily to have breakfast or coffee together. They actually made our experience even nicer as they noticed we were new to the spot and quickly welcomed us and raved about other items to try. I love joints like this! We both opted for bagel sandwiches and thoroughly enjoyed. However tip from regulars was to ensure we try his lasagna one day. What I absolutely loved was his medium cappuccino with one sugar to go! I heard that espresso machine brew away and thought this can't be. It was one of the best I've had and loved the large cup. I simply would come here daily just for that and his pleasantries! I believe a customer told me he was actually a chef at a famous restaurant before, but maybe I'm screwing this story up a bit. However I am coming back as my hair salon is across the street and I will now stop here beforehand even if just for the cap! Looking forward to trying his other food and he has very affordable pricing! About 4 tables to sit, but many were coming in to order and go! See you soon!

The Pizza Gane was large, and we were able to make three meals out of it, and share a hunk with our neighbor. When we picked it up, the kid told us that anytime we want one, let us know.

I usually go with the Big Bite but yesterday I went with the tuna melt and that was pretty solid as well. My son has been going with the Buffalo Chicken sandwich and he's said it's one of the best. We both get a half size and he usually winds up saving half of that. So it is a solid meal. Decent amount of parking with options to eat in as well. Interior is very basic and everything is made right in front of you.... fresh. Only downfall is that they are cash only. Which I used to understand, but now you can order online via food delivery apps, so the ability is obviously there to take other forms of payment. In an era of everything being electronic, including our paychecks, cash has gone from King to inconvenient when you need to use it. All in all, by far one of the best in the area and you'll be full until the next day.
