This hidden gem in a shopping center blew all of my expectations and was definitely on top of my list for my go to's now for Italian cuisine. We came to this spot after learning it from Joe Rogans podcast. Thank goodness I listened and actually took this into consideration this time. The ambiance and decor is definitely something you wouldn't expect. You walk in and it feels like a restaurant in the Italian countryside. Rustic and classy at the time. Great spot for formal occasions and dates. Thanks to our amazing waitress (Carmen) recommendations and service for our meal were top tier. For our appetizers it was recommended that we split the Wagyu Meatballs, Caesar salad and prosciutto with burrata. For the second round, we split 2 pasta dishes. Red wine parpadelle with short braised short rib and spicy rigatoni. Both dishes were amazing, however I can whole heartedly say that the spicy rigatoni was the favorite. Only bad thing I can say is that I wish there was more. Even though we had more than enough food, we foolishly ordered. A third round for entree which comprised of Ribeye with complimentary roasted bone marrow, filet mignon, seared tuna steak and Pork chops. All the entrees were exceptional and cooked to perfection. Owner (Anthony) and manager Norman were gracious enough to check in on us, making sure everything was to our liking. The staff here were very hospitable and really made our first time experience a memorable one. Will definitely be coming back with the rest of my friends and family. read more

I've had Il Nido on my radar for a bit and finally went on a Saturday evening. The restaurant is dimly lit and tastefully done. It's divided into 2 dining areas. Service was good overall and we were not rushed. Appetizers Caesar salad Octopus Entrees Branzino served with gritty polenta ( they accommodated our request for the polenta) Veal Osso Buco Dessert Budino Zeppoles Good experience overall. We were surprised that it wasn't more busy for a weekend night. Hopefully they will remain for many more years to come. read more

This is a difficult review to do because there were some great things and some not so great. So I will be very fair. Four of us in our party went for my son's birthday dinner. He picked this because of the reputation and because all of us are big foodies. The service was impeccable. Very attentive and first rate. The drinks were fantastic. The wine selection is impeccable. Overpriced but it costs to keep good wine well, and you pay a premium at an upscale restaurant. The wine was indeed fantastic. But be ready for that bottle to be a quarter of your bill. The appetizers and meals were delicious. The quality of the ingredients and skill of preparation was excellent. We had shrimp arancini that cooked well with pickled fennel that was amazing. The beef carpaccio was tender, served with delicious mushrooms and a sort of olive tapenade with lovely crackers. So tasty. The octopus was tender and grilled perfectly. The tabbouleh and farro salad was delicious and a nice fresh counterpoint to the grilled octopus. For our main meals, we had spicy rigatoni with beef brisket topped with toasted breadcrumbs, gnocchi with sausage and broccoli rabe, duck over puree, and short rib parpadalle. All of these were outstanding. The pasta was phenomenal. The sauces were all delicious and perfectly made. What disappointed? Two things. The bread basket bread and the desserts. The bread basket. This is an Italian restaurant. Bread is essential. I was completely shocked the bread was typical ordinary two star Italian bakery level round wheat loaf. Not crispy homemade. Not that crusty substantial Italian bread that we all know and love. How can you have a meal for four that cost more than $120 a person all tolled and have mid level bread?! Bread is easy to get right at a mediocre local Italian restaurant/cafe/bistro. How do they get that SO wrong. Dessert -- We were surprised given the quality of our main meal that the desserts were very subpar. Not mediocre. Not okay. Subpar. We had the olive oil cake, cookies, and bomboloni (Italian donuts stuffed wirh cannoli cream). First the olive oil cake - it was bland. To be clear here, we are fans of olive oil cake and have eaten it at many upscale places before. This was truly bland and boring. The sauce was also bland and insufficient to remedy the cake. The gelato on the side was also meh. The apple crumb topping tasted EXACTLY like Apple Jacks cereal, which we all found very offputting. It's a weird thing to have an upscale olive oil cake that reminded us of a bowl of pedestrian supermarket cereal. It's an odd choice. The bomboloni was also bland. The cream didn't taste like cannoli cream. It was creamy. But bland. Lacking those ricotta/salty/sweet notes of cannoli cream. To be honest two of at the table I would have sworn it was homemade whipped cream. Perhaps the cannoli cream was combined with whipped cream to lighten it, but there was zero cannoli cream flavor in that cream. And it was light and thin like a whipped cream. The donut was fried right and was light. But it too was bland. No vanilla taste at all. Finally the complete disappointment were the cookies. We chose the cookies with the thought that for this quality of a restaurant to have them on the menu they must be amazing. And honestly - if you're going to have them on this sort of a menu, you MUST knock it out of the park. Sadly, they weren't even the quality of school bake sale cookies. Yes they were large. Yes they were soft. They had little to no chocolate taste. Little to no brown sugar taste. They were so bland if you closed your eyes and at ate them I would bet you couldn't tell me they were cookies - let alone chocolate chip cookies. In short, when you're excited to close out the meal with a great dessert and then end up utterly disappointed, it just ends up sort of deflating the whole experience. At these prices, they must get the whole thing right. And to get dessert and bread SO wrong, the meal fails overall. We walked out on a low note. That is definitely not how it should be at a place like this. read more

I'm so sad to have to downgrade my rating. Il Nido was actually my favorite restaurant in central jersey between the incredible food, atmosphere, and welcoming service. The restaurant has been empty for months now because the food has taken a turn for the worst and the service is god awful. The last straw since the management change around 1 year ago was when we dined in a few months back and the waitress took my plate away as I was mid-bite... We haven't been back because the food isn't nearly as good as it once was and that experience was truly bizarre. Unfortunately, Il Nido will probably be closed before the year is over if they keep this up. read more

My first visit to Il Nido was highly anticipated and just short of perfect. The menu definitely appeals to food lovers and I was excited to share multiple dishes with my family. We all agreed that the appetizers were the stars of the show, my favorite being the autumn crostino, it was absolutely delectable. Appetizers: - Autumn Crostino *** - Jersey Scallops *** - Charred Clams I had drooled over photos online of the charred clam appetizer but I ultimately found it to fall short of my expectations. The focaccia it was serviced on was buttery but suprsingly not crunchy, which I think would have improved the texture of the dish. However, all three appetizers were thoroughly enjoyed. Entrees: - Raviolini (crab, squash) *** - Tagliolini (wild boar, espresso, chocolate) - Halibut Entrees were taking a while to come out but that wasn't a problem for us. However, when the entrees were served, all three were room temperature. We did not want to send all of our entrees back or complain. Unfortunately, our table sat directly beneath the air conditioning and we had told the server it was cold at our table but the comment went ignored. As a result, the entrees were cold within minutes. This was truly disappointing, and service definitely slowed down after this and I wish we had said something sooner. Despite this, the ravioli was excellent with really great flavor. The sauce of the tagliolini was unique and delicious, however I felt it would have paired better with a larger pasta. Dessert: - Olive Oil Cake - Almond Biscotti Gelato We could have done without the desserts and didn't particularly enjoy either one. The gelato tasted more like ice cream and lacked the creaminess that makes gelato so special. Overall, I found that Il Nido had the potential for 5 stars but a few things had stopped us from enjoying the restaurant fully. I will 100% be back as the seasonal menu changes and look forward to dining again! read more

The vibe was really nice--we sat in a cozy room with a fireplace, which was a great touch. Service was excellent, very attentive. The bread they brought out was really good, but they didn't ask if we wanted more, which was a little disappointing. I got the orange mule--it tasted good but wasn't very strong. We shared the shrimp arancini to start. It was okay, nothing special. My husband didn't like it--he thought it was too mushy. For mains, I had the truffle pasta special and my husband got the spicy rigatoni. My pasta was a bit too salty and didn't have enough mushrooms. Both dishes were really small, which was surprising. With so many great Italian spots around, I don't think we'd go back--mainly because the portions just didn't feel worth it. read more

I'm in disbelief as to how I have never eaten at Il Nido during my 25 years of living in Marlboro. Guess I need to go out and touch grass more often because this restaurant will be my go-to date night spot from now on. You wouldn't expect much from a crusty strip mall restaurant, but the interior is beautiful. It forreal felt like a bougie log cabin. I didn't feel like I was in Marlboro anymore. The food was sooo NOM. The caesar salad here is easily my favorite I've ever had. It had a stronger anchovy taste, which I LOVED. Pastas were very good. Smaller portions, but the quality was there, and we were stuffed by the end of our meal. Expect NYC prices, but honestly, I would take this over Carbone any day. The service was great. Though it did get a little slow as the dining room filled. It was a full house at 6pm on a Saturday evening (to be expected). Will for SURE be coming back to try the other pastas! read more

We had the server James twice now - however all the servers and workers are very professional, attentive and nice. We want to thank James for accommodating our special requests the last two times he was our server. The food is super delicious! I found our meal over the winter to be slightly better than our last visit, but our reservation was much later in the evening I'm not sure if that had something to do with it. We tried the scallop app, Caesar salad, filet and took home the cheesecake. My god the cheesecake was decadent! Loved the filet except missed the Brussel sprouts which had come with it over the winter. The inside ambiance is super cozy, with lots of wood, mood lighting, and they play relaxing music that makes you feel at-home. They didn't rush us at all during our last visit even though we were one of the last tables. Be sure to make a reservation in advance as they get super busy especially over the weekend. Excited to go back and thank you so much!!! read more

This Italian establishment is located in a unremarkable strip mall but you enter into somewhat of a cozy oasis. The meatballs were my favorite dish of the night followed by the panna cotta. The spicy rigatoni was good but wasn't on the same level as the meatballs. The ricotta and focaccia ratio was off to me as I felt like there wasn't enough focaccia to ricotta. Nonetheless, all the food I had was delicious and I will come here again. This is a great spot for dinner. read more

This rustic yet stylish Tuscan styled restaurant is a perfect pick for a special dinner. Starters and entrees were outstanding and well presented. Delicious!

Ambiance and service gets it 5 stars. Shoutout to carmen our amazing waitress. We started off with drinks and bread was brought to the table with olive oil. Simple but delicious. We then followed it with a wagyu meatball. The sauce was good, though a bit bland. I had the special of the evening which was a homemade sheet of ravioli made with shrimp. I thought it was delicious. I wished the pasta would've been a bit softer. I dropped my fork trying to cut into the edges. My wife had the short rib pasta and loved it. We then had dessert. This was where it got underwhelming. Both the olive oil cake and the brownie were dense and dry like they were store bought and refrigerate. Overall would go here again. read more

Food was good, creative with ingredient combinations. Cocktail menu is different and delicious. Atmosphere was nice, not too loud, we're able to enjoy conversation at our table and we were not rushed thru dinner. With that being said our server was friendly but lacking in attention to our table or maybe experience, when taking our order had no pen, disappeared for 15/20 minutes before returning, had to ask for more bread, asks a question about a pasta dishes walked away, had refill our own water glasses, and even forgot to bring a side and one of the coffees ordered. 3% service charge and the amount our bill I would have expected better service. I guess you have to be an Instagram influencer or famous to get good service. We would go back for the food but there are other places to try first. read more

This place is a hidden gem. I typically don't get chicken at a restaurant but when I tell you this is the best chicken I've ever had, it's the best chicken I've ever had. The sauce has the most delicious balsamic glaze. The squid ink cavatelli had a small kick to it and the perfect bite (Al dente indeed). We also got vodka sauce with shrimp. Service is phenomenal. I left my credit card in the table and someone from the staff came running out to find me to return my credit card to me. 10/10 will be back. read more

Il Nido is one of the best restaurants in New Jersey. It's a high class restaurant with high class service. Our waitress nailed every recommendation and was a pleasure to be served by. The ambiance is cozy and perfect for a date or family dinner. Every single bite was so delicious, and I really appreciate the uniqueness and authenticity of this restaurant. Some highlights of my meal were the charred clams, beef carpaccio, and the garganelli pork ragù. We need more restaurants like il Nido! Everything is so carefully prepared. read more

This is my 2nd time going to Il Nido. I hadn't been there in about 2 years. It was for my boyfriend's birthday so I felt that would be a really nice place to take him. I requested to sit either in front of the fireplace or the chef's table and they were able to accommodate me with either one. We first opted for the chef's table, but I felt the fireplace was a nicer vibe since it was for his birthday. We started off with the Il Nido Caesar salad and the Pulpo Alla Griglia(octopus) Both were exceptional. I myself, make homemade Caesar salad, so I am always very critical. It was so good. The octopus was also extremely tender... both were great appetizers to share. Even the bread was fantastic. I had the halibut which was absolutely delicious... If I see halibut on a menu, I always order halibut because it is my favorite fish. It was prepared in a delicious sauce, and it even came with a couple of muscles. My boyfriend had a pasta special which he thoroughly enjoyed. Since it was his birthday, I had requested on my notes that whatever we order for dessert to please put a candle in it. He opted to not have dessert as he knew what I was going to do, and our waiter was so nice that he still brought out a vanilla gelato with a candle on it and Happy Birthday was written on the plate...it was on the house. That was an extremely nice gesture. We also had two glasses of wine(Paso Robles & Ladouceur), & we also each had the called Spring Fever. Spring fever was absolutely delicious, and I highly recommend it. It was a fantastic dining experience, and so happy we went there for his birthday. The only downfall was that I did feel bad for the waiter as he was handling every table in the room. Not his fault, and they need to get at least one or maybe two more waiters to help him. He did his best to accommodate, but we didn't get our wine until halfway through our main course. Again, not his fault, but Management should definitely help him out and hire more people. I will definitely be back. It is a wonderful restaurant. read more

Seated quickly on a weeknight but I know this place gets packed on the weekends. Service was pleasant and fast. Cocktails were good, they have a few old fashions on the menu. I got a gnocchi dish thinking it would be a decent portion but it was pretty small for the price I paid - luckily I was not that hungry. My husband ordered a steak and he was very impressed. I would probably go back and split a pasta dish and a main dish to eat amongst two people. The pastas are under the part of the menu "primi" so I guess it's implied that it's a smaller dish and not the main? Not sure but sometimes you just want to eat pasta for dinner and be full read more

Il Nido - Pistachio martini - Desserts Near Me - Marlboro, New Jersey

As I walked in my mood immediately picked up. It's a beautiful, dimly lit interior, very cozy with just enough tables to create an intimate dinner setting. The expectation was immediately set to a give star review. The server clearly was having an off night. Not that he didn't properly take our order, but he never smiled the whole evening, which was off putting, to say the least. Saving grace were the cleaning crew who worked their butts off and smiled at every turn. The food looked beautiful, but unfortunately tasted less than. The gnocchi which was bland and flavorless, the desert "donut" tasted overly greasy and topped with Nutella, and even the meatballs tasted like they came out of the frozen section of a local grocery store. Bottom line, the food was below par, the cuisine did not meet taste expectations, and certainly not the price one pays for it. read more

We were a large party. They set us up in a room in the back that had a curtain. So it was kinda private which was nice. We ordered some appetizers. The bread was good. The olive oil was great. I ordered the gnocchi special. It was ok. Tried some of the other pastas on the table. They tasted better. Our waiter was very nice. My only complaint was the bill has a 3% charge for CC on it. And i was paying cash. It turned into an unnecessary mess at the end of an otherwise real good meal and good time read more

Wow what a long wait at hostess stand. No one in sight and we aren't even acknowledged for 10 minutes. Once we sat the experience got a little better. The three cheese ravioli was delicious. The, branzino had a funky smell to it. One of the worst dishes I have had. The crispy potatoes were delicious with the aioli being lovely. The beet salad was nice as well. The shrimp aranchini had a nice crispy and flavor. The best thing we had. Also enjoyed the zeppoles. They were like munchkins from dunkin donuts but kicked up. They had good flavor with the honey and pistachio's as garnish. Overall, food was decent (minus the branzino) but service was not good. Wouldn't come back. read more

This is our second meal at Il Nido in the last month. It was so good we came back for New Year's Eve and it did not disappoint! Il Nido has it all, amazing, attentive service, delicious food and a very nice spacious ambiance. Oh and very good cocktails and wine too! Even on a very busy New Year's Eve, we really enjoyed ourselves. We started off with the Cauliflower Dip. Don't let the name make it seem unimpressive, this dip was so good. It is served with the crispiest, crunchiest bread, just perfect for the smooth texture of the cauliflower that is topped with pistachio. Yum! i ordered the 4 Story chicken which was perfectly cooked and very flavorful. Love that all the food is organic and Story Hill is actually a farm in PA. Hubby has the Scallops and Lobster which he thoroughly enjoyed along with the scrumptious crispy potatoes. Every single potato was crispy and so good. What a pleasant surprise. Not your regular potatoes, that's for sure. We finished the meal with the Apple Tart which was so buttery good and came with thinly sliced apples that were so yummy. I didn't get to taste the gelato as hubby polished it all off before i could even taste it! Enough said on that! Il Nido is probably the best restaurant in Marlboro. It checks all the boxes and more. Go make your reservation now! read more

Il Nido is a hidden gem! Who knew such an eclectic menu, delicious food and beautiful atmosphere could be found in a strip mall. My family shared 3 appetizers and 3 entrees, while all delicious in their own way the standout must order dishes are the autumn crostino, Jersey scallops, raviolini and the tagliolini. Everything was packed with so much flavor and the garnishes complement all of the dishes well. All of the pasta dishes were cooked perfectly al dente. I'm excited to go back for a 5 star experience as I landed on 4 stars the first time around as service got slower as the meal went on and the food came out room temp and quickly chilled as we were seated right below the air conditioning. read more

The food was delicious. We got the beef tartare crostini The mashed potato filled gnocchi with truffle and mushrooms Dry aged ribeye with crispy potatoes and bone marrow Roasted chicken with veggies Everything was delicious but if I had to choose, their pasta was the best. Next time I go, I'd just get 3-4 pasta dishes to share. The atmosphere was nice and classy. Our server was named Erica and she made sure we felt welcomed and had everything we needed. It's very rare to find a nice traditional classy restaurant with an open kitchen in a time where everything is about instagram and the 'trend'. Worth every penny, 100% would go again. p.s: might be a biased review since I proposed and got engaged 30min before my meal. read more

Sorry. read more

To summarize, food was a little over 4 stars but service was abysmal, near 1 star. First time visiting after hearing great reviews. The ambiance was beautiful and the meatballs, spicy rigatoni and potatoes were top notch, kudos to the chef. Our server visited what felt like once an hour. It was not a busy night by any means in the restaurant world. Drinks were slow to come out and then never cleared from the table, mistakes were made with entering our order but never taken off the bill, we were never given utensils and our dinner plates came out. We had to get up from our seat and find our server in the restaurant to ask for utensils. When the server cleared our table, red sauce was dripping on the floor right next to my leg, trying to carry too much spilling drinks as they are carried off the table. Just poor professionalism in there. read more

I thought the restaurant was pretty good. The ambience was nice, the service was pretty good, the waiter was attentive. I had a veal pasta Bolognese, which was very good, I highly recommend it. In terms of value, I didn't think it was a great value. The pricing was very high and the portions were not that big. I was very disappointed in this factor, I am all about value, and I don't think this was a good value. The place was nice. The food was good, the service was good, but the price they charge was too high for what they gave you. I didn't even wanna think about wearing a steak, as the price of all the steaks were through the roof! Look at the menuonline if you can see it! It's crazy. Probably won't go back again, and that's mostly because of the value. read more

Il Nido - Spicy Rigatoni - Desserts Near Me - Marlboro, New Jersey

Looking back on 2022, I had some very excellent meals at some very excellent restaurants. Il Nido is without question at the very top when I think about my recent experience. For starters, the service is very attentive. Expect everything from a doorman to your plates regularly cleared to your waters topped. Also expect freshly baked bread served with olive oil. We started with a couple of drinks off their cocktail list. I really enjoyed their Maple Old Fashioned and my girlfriend liked her Pink Lady. For the food, we began with their grilled octopus served with lentils. It was meaty and juicy. We practically licked the plate clean. For dinner, we ordered the Wagyu short rib and squid ink spaghetti. The pasta was superb - you can tell it's freshly made. The short rib was the best I've ever had and practically melted in my mouth. I left none of it to spare. We topped the meal off with their lemon ricotta cheesecake and espresso. We did not feel rushed. In fact, it was a very relaxing experience and perfectly rounded out the year with a bang. I already can't wait to go back and can't recommend them enough. read more

Second time visiting here with my boyfriend. Everytime the food is amazing! The problem is the service. Upon our first visit, we sat for nearly 3 hours in an empty restaurant waiting on drinks and service. They clearly felt badly and gave us dessert for free, which is nice but didn't really make up for it. We decided to give it a second time around since we loved the food so much. The service started great. We were moving at a steady pace. Then once our apps came out we never saw our server again. Not even at other tables. My boyfriend never got the drink he ordered. We saw another server moving around and very attentive with his tables. Our server was no where to be seen. Strange. All in all, it's great food for terrible service. Probably not going to return. read more

Wanted to try this place for a while but never managed to fit my schedule. Finally tried it and boy it was good. The experience from beginning to end was just perfect.

Everything was organic, fresh and delivered very quickly. The pasta was perfectly cooked al dente with flour imported from Sicily and made fresh in the restaurant.
