This has become our go to place for dinner up near Closter. The food is always right on point. No matter if our party is for 4 or 12.

Giulo's is the best restaurant in Rockland County. Very comfortable seating. Large cocktails. Great food. Excellent desserts. Top-notch service. Benny, the owner, is on top of things. Have a great lunch or dinner and go to Giulo's. I highly recommend Giulo's. read more

Giulio's Restaurant - Seafood combo with risotto. Lunch. - Italian Near Me - Tappan, New York

I wanted to add to my previous posts. Another great night at Giulio's. Last minute decision to go and it met our expectations. We started out with the crab cake and slab bacon specials and they were delicious. We then ordered the surf and turf and porterhouse specials and were blown away. We both had to take home some of our entrees. They were delicious and were beyond what we could finish. An incredible night out. read more

W attended an event so this review might not be an accurate representation of the restaurant. The food was ok. The salad was just mediocre but the dressing made up for it! It was so delicious that I dipped my bread in it! The bread was hard though and hard to bite. I had the chicken Parmesan and it was good. The portion was very big and they were prepared to give us to go boxes. It was a little expensive, but that might've been because it was an event, I would like to revisit when I can just go to enjoy the restaurant. read more

The food was well prepared and delicious. The service was top notch. I will definitely return.

My first choice for dining out. I highly recommend this most welcoming, elegant restaurant in a landmark Victorian house. We were treated to absolutely delicious food, enjoyed in a room with big fireplace, gorgeous original woodwork, and the most attentive, unobtrusive service you can imagine. read more

I booked a private party for 24 people 2months in advance and gave them a 25% deposit. the day of the party when we got there they were not ready for us. They served us cafeteria food that had no taste especially the veal Marsala. Some of the clams oreganata had a bad taste and left my guests sick. The service was ok but the room was too small and we couldn't move around. We were rushed to finish dinner and told very impolitely to pack up and go within two hours from the start of the dinner. read more

Terrible service. Fish entrées, awful. We had to wait one hour for waiter to take our order and another hour for the food to come. read more

We had our family here for our moms funeral reception'! I highly recommend this place ! Everything was spot on! Staff was excellent! Food was huge portions! read more

Wow- what a pleasant surprise! Went on Saturday night party of 4- nice ambiance ample parking. Menu/specials extensive- all meals and apps were excellent. Ample pours on drinks, great service , and imho very reasonable prices. Will definitely be back, wish it was closer to home but nice drive over to Tappan read more

We were a party of 5, all belonging to different organizations and looking for restaurants for different occasions. The ambiance is lovely, our servers were very attentive and friendly. We asked for separate bills when we entered as we were going to test a variety of entrees from the menu. There was no problem. Everyone only ordered one entree. Not to hard to calculate. However, when the owner came with the 5 bills he was extremely rude and in a very arrogant manner told us he would not do separate checks again!! Well thank you very much. You won't be seeing any of us again, or any of our friends! read more

Have dined there many times. Always great food and service. Highly recommend all menu items, shrimp and mussels always a favorite.

Awful Valentines Day experience. Giulio's overbooked and there were so many unhappy customers ..... It was mobbed! they closed the parking lot, they stopped honoring reservations... it was really terrible. We thought that Giulios would be the perfect romantic outing ... and it turned into a stressful bad time. Very surprised that a good restaurant so mismanaged the biggest night of the year. read more

This is the best Italian restaurant in NY/NJ. Ambiance is incredible. The owner, Benny really cares about your experience. The food is delicious! I really hate thinking this will become a tourist trap but I need people to know. read more

Our Christmas Day dinner 2025 was celebrated at Giulio's and was just fantastic! Our family party of 12 enjoyed every appetizer and all the dinners were amazing! So delicious and the presentation was just great! For such a busy holiday the service was amazing. The staff was so friendly and so accommodating!We had such a warm and friendly feeling in the restaurant with such a great atmosphere! Thank you to the staff , the bar tenders and to the chefs for making our experience at Gullies so special on Christmas Day! read more

Two of us went for Thanksgiving dinner and the experience was fantastic. We had eaten there before but never on a holiday. The experience was fantastic. The ambience, service and food were outstanding. The menu was extensive, but we opted for the Thanksgiving dinner special which was four courses and each was delicious. This was the BEST dining out on a holiday experience we've ever had! Well done! read more

Food and service were amazing! The ambiance and beautiful house makes for a very cozy atmosphere. Highly recommend!

Generous portions delicious great presentation will definitely go back Wide variety on the menu read more

Awesome! Food was delicious and service was superb. First time there and can't wait to go again!

Wonderful experience all around. The building is a beautiful Victorian on the outside and inside. Wood floors, a warm comfortable feeling. The staff is professional, welcoming and knowledgeable. Our party had the rack of lamb, stuffed salmon and cavatelli pasta with sausage. All delicious. Veggies were a bit overcooked. Looking forward to returning next time I am in town. Thank You for a great experience. read more

Superior in every way. Elegant setting in a beautiful Victorian Mansion. Visited on Mother's Day and last night and both times everything was perfect. Service was friendly and attentive. Hot bread, cheese and more were delivered complimentary as soon as we were seated. Drinks arrived promptly and were very tasty and generously sized. Appetizers were excellent and Our shared Caesar salad was more than enough for two. Veal entrees were truly tender and delicious with portion size to delight the biggest appetite. The owner is totally concerned with providing a superior dining experience and came by our table frequently to ensure that everything was perfect. We have been enjoying Giulio's for many years, but the current owner has really elevated the dining experience. read more

Dinner at GIULIS was not what we expected from a fi e dining exoerience. There arevtoo many tables crowded into small rooms, lighting is poor and the service was missing. I had to ask several people to bring bread to our table. The waiter who took our order had so many tables he never came back to us. The staff seemed lost about replenishing water or clearing dishes. The manager/ owner had ti clear dishes so the next course could be served. The veal was overcooked and chewy. Finally, why the need for valet parking when the lot is close by. Service needs to be jmproved befire we return again. ios read more

What a beautiful Italian restaurant! Quaint ambiance and delicious food. One of the best penna vodka I have had! I came here for a private party, the room was spacious and service was quick. Our dinner came with a salad, penne vodka, entree choice of veal Marsala, chicken parm or sole filet with a chocolate mousse and vanilla ice cream desert. Outdoor seating is limited! read more

food on par but service was a bit slow was week Nite but still should be up to speed it seemed staff wasn't attentive maybe due to lack of customers on hand read more

Such a solid choice. Services is outstanding (Lewis is a gem). Food is on point ...really well prepared and tasty. Not dropdead but really really solid. Four of us sat outside yesterday . Salads come with entrées. The sole was a hit and so was my double pork chop grilled with vegetables. Drinks were potent and overflowing (a cab was 3/4 filled). I've sat inside and it's a beautiful setting inside. If you're ever undecided and want an unpretentious, warm choice with good food, you won't go wrong here . Price point is friendly too. read more

Their calamari isn't cleaned properly. it still has the skin of the animal which when cut into rings and fried leaves a ring of the skin in your mouth. The current owners must still use the same vendor as the old owners. Bad move as their calamari was the same way. Thankfully they took it back without issue and didn't charge us. This place has been a favorite for decades... all except the calamari. read more

Great place to eat dinner. We love it. Will be back soon. The porch is great. Tty the pastas all are good.

We came for a Christening Celebration. The restaurant is located in an old house. The woodwork throughout the property is stunning. Staff is nice. The menu, a five course Dinner started with an Assortment of Appetizers: Fried Calamari Pomodoro, Warm Brie Tartets(Puff), Filet Mignonette Carpacio Toast with Horseradish Cream Sauce(not (enough for the table to sample or maybe someone ate more than their share , Vegetables Stuffed Mushrooms. No appetizer plates were provided. We were forced to eat out of the bread plate. First Course: The House Salad: Field Greens, Asian Pears, Candied Walnuts, Gorgonzola Cheese, Honey Sherry Vinaigrette. Delicious. Where is the Bread? An Italian restaurant without bread! They brought out "bread dishes- not really, they were the saucer plates. Finally, two hours into the Dinner, bread comes. Small dinner rolls right out of the oven. Mouthwatering with butter. Second Course: Penne with Vodka Sauce. Good Entree Course: choice of Veal, Sole, Eggplant and Chicken. My table got Sole Oreganata, Veal Marsala,, Eggplant Rollatini The food was tasty, Sole was moist. Everyone devoured their plate Dessert Celebration Cake & Cookies The feast lasted 5 hours. read more

I cannot fully review this place's food as I prematurely left dinner after waiting over an hour and a half for our entree FROM ORDERING. No one checked on our table, no communication, no one asking if we needed a refill. I understand busy nights especially on the holidays but this was simply THE WORST service I have ever received from a restaurant. You could not even talk to someone as they only had runners and bussers on the floor. Appetizer was good, will never know how the entree was. I will never be going back here again and I would not recommend this place to anyone who values their time and likes an establishment who respects their customers. read more

Giulio's restaurant is more than going for dinner. It's an experience with an outstanding beautifully designed decor that is artfully crafted , and excellent cuisine with every visit. I love veal chops and they have the most outstanding veal shop on the planet. I definitely think you should give this beautiful Restaurant a try and you will be making your return reservation after the first bite. read more

Beautiful setting, white table cloth tables, and romantic setting. Service and food were outstanding. Will be back again.

By chance we found this beautiful restaurant it looked like a restored mansion with a wrap around porch. We had a delicious dinner of stuffed artichokes, baked clams, I had buttata ravioli (so delish) and my husband had surf and turf. We ended with a slice of coconut cake and the best made espresso by our lovely and attentive waiter Alessandro. The food was delicious and plentiful. Will be back! read more

Giulio's Restaurant - Coconut cake - Italian Near Me - Tappan, New York

Literally so bad. Serious corners get cut on their ingredients which is why the prices are so low, but you end up paying the real price at the toilet bowl. Filthy wine glasses, off putting tastes in the meat, you can tell most of their stuff is frozen garbage. read more

I have passed this place for so many years, and never stopped in. Finally, I made the journey. Friendly staff, the food was great, and never rushed. The owner is present and working the floor at all times, which as a small business owner, I can really appreciate. After reading some of the reviews, it seems quite sad that people complain about things like the floor, or some other meaningless issues. It's a really nice place, that serves great food at a fair price, filled with a great staff. I can't wait to come back. read more
