It was a close call when the sea's best ( shrimp, Crab) , white wine, tomato , basil and arugula are bedded with Linguini, is on the menu. However, last night the winning choice was a glorious linguini with little neck clams in a brilliant garlicky pepper flaked broth. To say the options are plenty does not do service to the vast options of homemade pastas, slow mastered sauces and land and sea delights. A chicken parm for example was a silky mozarella wedded to a tender chicken breast embedded in roasted burst of tomatoes. Service! Professional, knowledgeable and note to self- remember wine! Casual for friends to connect, warm for special celebrations ( there was a birthday party on a Wednesday night!) perfect for date night!

OUTSTANDING!!! If…read moreyou like authentic Italian food and not the sauce heavy oil laden foods most local places make then try this place!!! We grabbed a table on a Saturday night we were immediately impressed by the amazing smells upon entering . I spent my summers in Italy growing up and this place took me back . Our wonderful waitress and over and left some bread and oil while we looked at the menu. We agreed upon the califlower as an app . Hubby had the eggplant parm and I did the pasta with shrimp and broccoli . We also got a side of broccoli rabe, the meals also came with a nice side salad . The portions are a realistic smaller size and delicious. Unbelievably so! Fresh and great quality olive oil is used you can taste the difference. We were going to splurge and get dessert but they only had chocolate cake or ice cream so we declined . It is a byob. We honestly already said we will be going again next week! Please do yourself a favor and visit!

The service was lovely--our waiter was kind, attentive, and made the whole experience feel easy and welcoming. And the food? Absolutely phenomenal. We started with the fried artichoke hearts (a must!), burrata, calamari, mozzarella sticks, and the zucchini and eggplant chips--LORDY, those were insanely good. Every appetizer was better than the last. The main dishes were just as impressive. The chicken parm was crispy and flavorful, the gnocchi was melt-in-your-mouth perfect, and the sole francese was delicate and delicious. We were passing plates around the table because no one could decide which dish was their favorite! It's BYOB, which made it feel even more relaxed and special. Total hidden gem--we'll definitely be back!!!!

I was introduced to this place, located in Midland Park, NJ by my daughter and son-in-law…read more The menu lists a lot of choices, so choosing a dish diners want to eat can be overwhelming. Since I am visiting, I don't get to eat here often, so when there's a choice between 2 pastas "houses", I have always chosen to eat here. The last time the family and I went and had our meals at the restaurant, I believe the service we had was good. Server was nice and polite, and the ambiance was nice enough for conversations. I do hate being seated right near the restroom though, so I requested sitting as far away as we can the last time we were there, and restaurant hostess had no problem accommodating us. The last few times, due to family's schedules, we ordered for pick up. Picking up was easy enough: go to the counter, give them your name, pay, and get your food. Because I hate paying for a fee by using my credit card, I always make sure to bring cash to pay my bill. I recently fell in love with their spaghetti with clam sauce (white option), so that was my order for today. With my first bite of this dish, substituting linguine for spaghetti, my mouth exploded with the excellent flavors of spices, used to cook the sauce, along with the chopped clam and the chewy linguine. This dish is prepared and served as a larger potion, so make sure you save your tummy for dish, if you choose to order one. My daughter loves her fettuccine rustica dish minus the peas and sun-dried tomatoes, which is a mom's approved dish. We also ordered a 12" personal pizza. The pizza here is not as good as their pasta dishes, so no additional comment. Overall, I truly enjoyed all of the dishes I have ordered from this location, and am looking forward to dine here again the next time I visit my daughter and family.

I'm really disappointed, and I can't give this place more than a single star. We went with a group…read moreof 4 toddlers and 3 adults, hoping for a simple meal. We wanted to order a large pizza for the kids to share, but were told they don't do large pies for dine-in after 4:30 PM. We explained we just needed something for the kids and would be ordering entrees for the adults. The waitress barely acknowledged us and didn't offer any helpful alternatives. So, we ended up ordering individual personal pies for each kid, which she failed to mention or suggest the idea they could actually be shared (I mean look at my pictures, is a 2 year old gonna eat that size personal pie herself?) Just to clarify, we had a 2 year old, a 4 year old , a 5, and a 7 year old with us, so mostly preschool aged kids. No one told us that the personal pizzas would be big enough for the kids and we ended up bringing home essentially 3 full pizzas. On top of that, they charged my son for an adult seltzer ($3.50 for a seltzer seriously?), and kids' drinks (like apple juice or soda) were priced at $3.25 each. The service was also lacking. We literally didn't see our server after the initial order, with the exception of when the check came. They added a 20% gratuity automatically. Normally, I'd understand that for large groups, but the service didn't justify it at all which felt like they knew this and went with a set it and forget it mentality towards the table. As for the food, it was disappointing. The avocado chicken panini was greasy, drenched in butter, and the tomato slices were so thick, they could've been used as hockey pucks. The $21 goat cheese and beet salad was bland, and two of the three kids didn't even like the pizza sauce. In the end, we paid $135 for 4 toddlers and 2 adult entrees, which felt completely overpriced for the quality and service. Overall, this place lacks decent service, overpriced food, and I wouldn't recommend it.

We've kept this place on our radar for a while and finally made a reservation. I wasn't sure what the strategy should be.

Why are there four Imperia pasta machine boxes? How much pasta can each machine crank out before it needs to be tossed?

Go here for the Chilean sea bass with the Florentine sauce, get the lemon potatoes, and spinach --…read morehonestly one of the best dishes I've had in a long time. I'd give that dish a 4.75 and the overall dining experience a 4.2. The fish was incredibly fresh, delicate, and perfectly cooked. It felt light, yet still filling and completely satisfying and nice size portion too. AND DO NOT FORGET the lemon potatoes... possibly the best I've had in my lifetime. I normally don't even enjoy foods that are overly lemony, but these were balanced perfectly with just the right brightness and flavor and seasoned with perfect salt and pepper ...when the waitress told me rosemary was part of the flavor it was surprising bc I also don't like rosemary...honestly I would go back for those alone. Hub was trying this place for the first time and ordered the chicken parm. He said it was decent but fairly basic compared to other Italian spots and I'm being overly generous with my review. The side salad was surprisingly memorable...a simple mix of greens with excellent olive oil and vinegar that made it taste fresh, flavorful, and elevated. They also brought out complimentary mini rice balls along with a meat and cheese appetizer, which was a really nice touch. I paired my meal with a Washington Riesling by the glass, and our waitress was genuinely delightful and warm throughout the evening and checked if I needed a refill. My water glass also somehow stayed full the entire night, which honestly deserves recognition because that rarely happens anywhere anymore. Small hiccup: I had to ask 4 times for lemons for the water (from other staff the first 2 times)... but hey, fourth time's the charm. They also had a live piano bar 7/8 PM on Thursday night which had a lively singer and a delight to see live music entertainment. The biggest opportunity here is streamlining the music when there's live entertainment. For example, "Wonderful Tonight" by Eric Clapton was overlapping with the piano bar singer performing "8 Days a Week," which made the atmosphere feel a little chaotic and over loaded my senses and not in a good way. The piano bar music created a much more upbeat and enjoyable vibe than the regular dining room playlist. To finish, we tried the homemade New York cheesecake with caramel sauce for dessert, and you could absolutely tell the desserts were homemade. Better than some cheesecakes I've had in NYC. A perfect ending to the meal. Overall, definitely worth visiting for the chilean sea bass dishes, lemon potatoes, homemade desserts, attentive service, and warm atmosphere. When I come back I'm getting those potatoes!

After reading so many glowing reviews, I am absolutely stunned by how awful our experience was on…read moreFriday, May 8th. Between an absentee, scatterbrained server and poorly prepared food, this was one of the worst dining experiences we've had in years. We had been looking forward to this dinner all week, especially since we were celebrating two special occasions, but from the moment we were seated, it felt like we had been placed at the "afterthought table." For the first 30 minutes, no one acknowledged us. We weren't given menus, water, or any interaction whatsoever. When our server finally appeared to take a drink order, we asked for a wine list. She disappeared for another 15 minutes, and I eventually had to get up and ask another employee for menus myself. When the server finally returned, she apologized by saying she was "busy with Phil Simms" at another table. That is not something you say to paying customers. My time and money are just as valuable as anyone else's. The rest of the evening followed the same pattern: long stretches without service, forgotten requests, and excuse after excuse. When our wine finally arrived, the server spilled it across the table and onto my wife's glass, then joked that she had "forgotten how to do her job" after being on vacation and earlier she even forgot to put someone's dinner order in! At that point, I politely explained that service had been extremely slow and asked if things could improve. Her response was to laugh in my face. After taking our entrée order, she then informed us she had forgotten to tell us the specials. More than an hour after being seated, our appetizers finally arrived. They were bland and disappointing, and once we finished, the empty plates sat untouched on our table for quite some time while our server once again disappeared. Nearly two and a half hours into the evening, our entrées finally arrived. Unfortunately, the food was just as bad as the service. The chicken dish was room temperature on the outside and refrigerator-cold in the middle, with unmelted cheese still visible -- clearly something that had been prepared earlier, refrigerated, and poorly reheated. The gnocchi was overcooked to the point of being mushy and gelatinous. The braised short ribs were dry and overcooked, and the risotto was watery and flavorless instead of creamy and rich. After one or two bites, we asked to speak with a manager. The manager appeared somewhat indifferent, though he did offer to comp a portion of the meal. He also said someone would come wrap the food, but of course, no one ever did. We then sat for another 20 minutes with no interaction until our server returned and cheerfully asked, "I hope everything was great tonight!" We explained all of the issues, and her response was simply, "Oh, sorry." We asked for the bill and waited another 15 minutes. When she finally returned, she offered more excuses and told us we should give the restaurant another chance because "the kitchen is preparing for Mother's Day." At that point, it was hard to believe how tone-deaf the entire experience had been. Needless to say, we will never return and would not recommend this restaurant to anyone.
