Hands down, one of the best Italian restaurants in New Jersey…read more From the moment you walk into Fiorino, you feel genuinely welcomed. Everyone greets you with a smile, and there's a warmth to the hospitality that makes you feel less like a customer and more like family. This past Friday night, I had one of the best dinners and overall dining experiences I've had in a very long time. Mentor has done an outstanding job creating something truly special here. The service, food, wine, atmosphere, and hospitality all come together seamlessly. The ambiance is cozy, intimate, and full of energy. The dining room always seems to be buzzing, and you immediately understand why. The cocktails are always a hit, but the wines... oh, the wines! There are some incredible bottles to discover, along with an excellent selection by the glass. If you appreciate wine, this is definitely a place where you can have some fun exploring. Every dish that hit our table was spectacular. Everything felt thoughtfully prepared, from the pasta to the entrées and all the little details in between. There wasn't a single miss the entire evening. And now I apparently need to come back for the "Happy Meal" . As someone who works in the hospitality industry, experiences like this mean a little more to me. When you dine somewhere where the food hits, the drinks hit, the service hits, and the hospitality feels genuine, it reminds you exactly why you fell in love with this industry in the first place. Thank you, Mentor, and thank you to the entire Fiorino team for an unforgettable night. I can't wait to come back. -- Jeffrey Umaña @jeffrey.umana

Felina Summit is absolutely beautiful. The restaurant, located inside the Albion Summit Hotel, has…read morebeen stunningly renovated and feels elegant, modern, and welcoming. The floor-to-ceiling windows create a gorgeous atmosphere, and the food was delicious. Service throughout the meal was very good, and our server, Abby, was friendly and attentive. That said, there were a couple of disappointments. It was my birthday, and we were asked multiple times throughout the evening whether we were celebrating a special occasion. However, nothing was ever acknowledged at the end of the meal. We even had to remind our server about the limoncello shots that typically accompany dessert, which felt a bit awkward after being asked so many times about the occasion. My biggest concern is the seating issue with the windows. While the floor-to-ceiling glass is beautiful, the sun glare was extremely uncomfortable where we were seated. The sun was directly in our eyes for much of the meal, and we found ourselves switching and repositioning our chairs just to be comfortable. The restaurant should consider installing shades, scrims, or another solution to help manage the sunlight during certain hours. Overall, Felina Summit is a gorgeous restaurant with excellent food and good service, and I would certainly return. With better management of the sunlight and a little more follow-through on special occasion acknowledgments, the experience would be even better.

The food was okay. Not worth the price. There are better places in Summit for food. We had the farm salad and the Frutti de Mare (seafood pasta). The salad was mainly greens with sliced tomatoes soaked in dressing which was uninspired. The seafood in the Frutti de Mare was tough and rubbery. The shrimp was overcooked while the lobster was difficult to extract even though it was completely cut in half. The dessert which was a peach cobbler was both overly sweet and tart. The service was great. Food came out promptly. Our server might have been overly attentive and checked in on us at least 5 times during the meal to see if we enjoyed it. So a great place to visit and enjoy the ambience but not a great place for eating.

TLDR: MUST order a calamari pizza if you come here. Quick service, reasonable prices, delicious…read morespecialty pizza. Located in the heart of Summit, you cannot go wrong with lunch/dinner here. The specialty pizza is not something you can find anywhere else and they don't miss. Calamari pizza slices are only available on Fridays and the pies are available whenever you want. Calamari is perfectly breaded, dollops of marinara are great and the dough itself ties it all together. I can't stop thinking about this pie Buffalo wings: great flavor, great crisp, could be a bit bigger..

Now let's get down to the food, the diners around us had interesting looking plates. We were not that hungry so we only ordered entrees. I ordered the shrimp cavatelli and my friend ordered the penne allá vodka. Food was ok mine was a little bland. My friends did have good flavor. I did have nice pieces of shrimp but they were inconsistent in size. We did order a full bottle of wine. They also brought out bread but it needed some seasoned olive oil dipping sauce. At the end of our meal they did give us some complimentary lemoncello shots. I also did get the affogato which was good. All in all a good experience I think I would order something else next time.

Our 4 entrees were all delivered to our table at the same time, a big plus for me. Great job, we'll be back!

Experience up front- One Star Dining Service once seated -…read moreFive Star Food - Four Star Overall 3.5 Stars. Decided to try this as the wife's pick for her birthday- first timers. We had a confirmed reservation at 7:45p and checked in at 7:40p. There were a few chairs in the entrance area, of which one was open so my wife sat and held our 2 yr old. 20 minutes in, a staff member arrives and simply asks her to vacate the chair as they needed it. So you take the one chair with the woman and a toddler- classy. The other individuals seated next to her were also appalled and so kindly stood up themselves offering my wife their seats. A 40 minute wait ensued despite a confirmed reservation. The attendant said it gets busy once it hits 7:30- I get that and that is a great sign for business, but what is the point of even confirming a reservation? We were told a few times a table was nearly ready and just had to be cleaned but the wait continued. Thankfully by the time we were seated we knew what we wanted to order and after placing the apps- our first selections arrived within minutes. Note- despite the terrible service up front waiting, our server(s) were on their A+ game! Fried Zucchini- shoestring cut and crispy- dare I say as a french fry lover that these were a wonderful alternative. The kiddos devoured them too. Burrata - this was a huge hit with the wife and perhaps one of the highlights for her. Rigatoni spicy vodka sauce- we ordered 2 to share amongst us and one bowl was gone quick. This was perfectly spiced and a hit for all. Bucatini Cacio e Pepe - this one fell flat. Thank goodness at least our toddler ate some. The other three of us found it way to diluted "watered down" - and muted flavors. The lone miss of the night- food-wise. If you like sundaes- get the Sundae Royale- enough for 3, maybe 4 to share and be more than satisfied. Odd note: While the name of the restaurant is Focaccia, the pieces they bring to the table once seated are rubbery and chewy. The other bread included was about an hour from being a crouton.

It was a full restaurant and even without a reservation they accommodated us outdoors after a long wait. The focaccia bread for the table was so good. I ordered the chicken palard and the waiter made a point that it doesn't have any sauce, that it's "just chicken grilled with sautéed mushrooms on top". Despite this resounding endorsement, I ordered it. If I was the waiter, I would've said it's a simple, comfort dish of tender chicken with a savory blend of sautéed, buttery mushrooms. It's served with small side of penne marinara and I enjoyed the simplicity of this too. Unfortunately I was the only one happy and here are the misses. Cavetteli con ricotta, unlike the picture online with a dollop of ricotta on top, they blended the ricotta into the pasta. This diluted the flavor and made kind of a mush of things. The pasta was al dente and all the food was served hot, big points in my book. No need to write about the disappointing pizza, just look at the picture. Service was good and the atmosphere sitting outside was nice. The table before must have made a mess and there were fries all over the ground. I would've preferred they clean it up but never did. I'd come back but not sure I can convince my family.

After finishing our starters, we ordered Linguine and White Clam Sauce, Branzino, Pollo Murphy and Shrimp Fra Diablo. Each meal was perfectly seasoned and were generously portioned. The Pollo Murphy was massive with plenty to eat at the restaurant and plenty to take home.

Plenty of parking in street if needed. Inside is dark and inviting and they have a cute outdoor dining space as well. They start out by serving fresh Foccacia with seasoned olive oil. For starters , my wife and I shared an eggplant tower, fried eggplant layered with mozzarella and tomatoes. Very good. Our friends shared a salad and enjoyed as well. For mains our friends both ordered the hanger steak, my wife had the salmon, and I ordered their chicken special ( a boneless breast wrapped in pancetta). Everything was not only delicious but plentiful. Owner checked on us several times during our meals. Highly recommend trying this establishment.
