Vodka Rigatoni
Tricia G.

OMG - 2010 was my first review here!!! Wow, how times flies! You know when something is right in your "back yard," but you just don't seem to go there? This is the case w/ Filomena (Blackwood)! For some odd reason, I hadn't been here in MANY years, and it's about a ten minute drive from my house! (We actually frequent their Berlin location more). On this Friday eve!, we mainly came to see a music duo (Lisa and Joe). They were sensational, as was our food. I had a (rare cooked) steak dinner salad that was just perfect and delicious. My dad had the same, but with medium cooked steak, and a different dressing than mine. He loved his as well. Joey only had a (chicken) meatball app. He really enjoyed it (I didn't feel like trying it, mixing with my steak taste that I wanted to savor!) My mom had their Vodka rigatoni. She said that it was very good (I was initially skeptical b/c the sauce was a darker color than what I'm used to); it was also a big portion (she didn't finish it). We had a blast dancing, mingling, and just, well - enjoying life :) I'm looking forward to a future duplicate time!!! (I forget our server's name, but she was excellent in all ways)

French onion soup

Excellent onion soup. Great HH all day Sunday. $8 Burger Mondays. Yummy specials like mushroom ravioli and albacore tuna melts

This Filomena Cucina Italiana is located along Blackwood Clementon Rd. in Blackwood, NJ. It was recommended by a friend that lives here to go there for dinner. There was ample parking when there and they also have outdoor seating available. Our visit here was on September 23, 2019. We got here around 4 pm. There was no host or hostess at the front of the place. There was a sign for noting to seat yourself. The only part of the restaurant open was the bar, which we were trying to avoid. Someone came out and ended up seating us there, but quickly needed to move because they sat us in a very loud part of the bar. We would end up at the other end of the bar, but it was still pretty loud in there. After a minute or two, our server came to the table with some waters and to take our drink orders, but we did stick with just water. She gave us some time to look over the menu. A few minutes later she came back, but we were not quite ready yet, but did order the Bruschetta appetizer during happy hour. A few more minutes later she came back and we were ready to order. I ended up going with the Ricotta Ravioli with Alfredo sauce instead of marinara sauce. A few minutes later, the Bruschetta appetizer came out to the table. The Bruschetta was very good, but the bread it was on was pretty hard. It didn't stop me from eating it though. She also brought some garlic bread and regular bread to have, as well as some peppers. The garlic bread was really good. Next up was the salad that comes with the entrees. The salad was good, but I didn't realize it had dressing on it. I normally do salads with no dressing. About 5-10 minutes after that, our orders came to the table. The Ricotta Ravioli came out hot and with the Alfredo sauce. The ravioli was really good. It was typical of most other Italian restaurants I have been too back home as well. The portion size was large, which was a good thing. I almost felt like I would have to roll out after eating. Overall, the food and service was very good. The bar was too loud regardless of where you were so it was hard to have any type of conversation. They really should have the regular dining room open as well, which is the main reason for only giving three stars. Maybe it was an off night, but that's how it went for me. If you are in the area and looking for an Italian restaurant, this place is still a good one to come to. As for exiting, the exit is at the back of the restaurant. Turn right and then turn right again at the second road. The first one doesn't have a traffic light while the second one does.

Alfredo suppose to be capellini
Brit B.

I don't know what all the hype is about this place. I placed an order online . Alfredo with capellini and salad .extra Alfredo and extra salad dressing on the side. $23.00 . Pasta is decent size but I got linguine instead of my capellini that I ordered. Salad was about 4 pieces of lettuce. No extra Alfredo on the side or extra dressing at all. I will not be returning .

Stuffed mushrooms and fried mozzarella with marinara
Cyara P.

I have no complaints , only complements. The atmosphere was very vintage Italian and cozy. Service was fast and friendly. Food was hearty and flavorful. Great portions . Plenty to share . Awesome price.

Chicken Parmigiana
Angela O.

We came here for our anniversary dinner last night. Everything was fantastic from the service to the food and drinks. We've been here several times in the past and have had exceptional food and great service always! I ordered the four course meal with crab stuffed flounder. My boyfriend ordered chicken parmigiana. I ordered a glass of Kendall Jackson and he had 3 shots of Patron. We definitely got what we paid for! Our server Andrea was very personable and we even had a nice conversation, also the bartender George was great! I highly suggest eating at this location!

Chicken Graziano:  AL absolutely devoured this. He said it was really good!

I live a mere 12 minutes from Villa Nuova and had never…read moreheard of it until a friend told us about them?! He gave us a generous gift card that we used tonight. W O W We drove up to a humble building and entered into a welcoming and a very nicely decorated restaurant. I loved all the red "pops" for Valentine's Day! Giovanni seated us and Chris was our server. Both were warm and friendly. We really enjoyed our conversation with Chris and he gave us a few special treats as "first timers." I flipped for the focaccia bread! It reminded me of Lamberti's on Haddonfield-Berlin Road back in the day. This was even better though - I "kinda" had five pieces lol! We started with salads that were super good! I barely like tomatoes but these grape ones were so tasty! Now onto the star ... LOBSTER RAVIOLI in a brandy sauce! This dish was AH-MAZING and one of the night's specials - from the tender pasta and scrumptious lobster, to the incredible sauce and two succulent large shrimp. The chef added some sun dried tomatoes in, per my request - absolutely delicious!!! My Sir was grinning at me! I couldn't stop ooh'ing and ahh'ing at the "symphony " of flavors in my mouth! He had Veal Parmigiana with a side of Vodka Rigatoni, that he loved (it's his go-to dish that he bases restaurants on). I cleaned my plate, and took the remaining brandy sauce home - this gold wasn't going to waste! Chris hooked us up with two bread more bread baskets because he noticed how we were inhaling it- we took the remainder home too! A treat was meeting Peppe and his wife (?) on the way out. What lovely and gracious people! You can tell that they genuinely love what they do, which is why their food is so damned good! We already talked about going back - my eye is on the Calzone!

Peppy is the chef and he is constantly crafting wonderful specials that truly never miss. If you are looking for fantastic, authentic local Italian food, this is the place. Insider Tip: If you want to try something truly different, ask Peppy or Linda for 'Tom's Special.' I'll give you a hint: it's a legendary riff on a Chicken Parm... but I'm keeping the rest a mystery. You have to order it to find out!

Restaurant was not empty in the least but plenty of tables were still available. It was busy. A super waitress (Mariah) was superb. One of the children is a super picky eater so we knew going in that finding something for him at this restaurant would be a challenge. Thank goodness the one thing he eats is french fries!! So he doesn't count in this review because he only had a plate of french fries for his meal. Having said that, the plate of fries was GYNORMOUS ($5) !! The waitress brought 2 baskets of warm bread and a plate of warm peppers in oil & spices for the table. Awesome for both items. The adult graduate and her two friends had a cocktail ... each had a Casamigos Tequila Blood Orange Margarita that they said was awesome ($14 each). The kids diet coke and lemonade ($3 each) and my plain ole club soda ($3). The 2 friends each had the chicken parmigiana ($26 each) which came with 2 large pounded flat breasts on top of a bed of pasta. They each took half home with them. My daughter has the Penne Vodka ($24) along with a side of Italian Long Hot peppers ($8) and I had the unfortunate task of being on ATKINS diet so I bypassed all these good things on the menu and went straight for the chicken Caesar salad ($19). The salad was huge and at least a 7 -8 ounce grilled chicken served sliced on top. The total bill BEFORE the gratuity came to $179.95 + $11.93 tax for a total of $191.88 (before tip). The ambiance of Filomena Lakeview was really, really nice. We ate on their covered patio at high top table and it was really nice sitting there on a beautiful day. Anything to criticize? Not really. I didn't think the prices were out of line with any other restaurant for what they charge and the portion sizes were all very large. Nothing was skimpy at all. Mariah's service was great and ambiance was super. So, nope! All good and worthy of 5 stars!!

How is this rating so low? Bad bar food maybe? IDK …read more.. My side Caesar was incredibly good (crisp/cold/probably house made dressing?) Our entrees were exceptional- Veal Parm; Mushroom Ravioli! Great portion sizes too! Im super picky about risotto so I didn't order it, but will definitely do so (with seafood!) next time. Our darling server, Faith, brought me a sample because I told her how disappointed I had been with other restaurant's versions of it in the past (sent it back once even). This was the real deal and very damned good! We met the owner, Vincenzo, on the way out to compliment him on our food and our server. Nice man, which is always endearing :) Groupon of $40 for $20 - damnnnn !!!
