Ristorante Mulino does something far rarer. It simply cooks. Tucked away with the quiet confidence of a family secret, Mulino has the soul of a small, beloved neighborhood restaurant -- the sort of place one nearly misses, and then spends the rest of the evening feeling fortunate to have found. The atmosphere is intimate, warm, and unpretentious. Not manufactured charm. Real charm. The kind that comes from people who seem to understand that hospitality is not a performance, but a habit. The food was, without exaggeration, exceptional. Each dish arrived generously portioned, beautifully prepared, and full of the kind of flavor that suggests care rather than gimmickry. Nothing felt precious. Nothing felt careless. It was hearty, elegant, and deeply satisfying -- Italian food with both hands on the table and its heart in the right place. The value is almost suspicious. In an age where many restaurants charge handsomely for the privilege of leaving hungry, Mulino offers portions worthy of appetite, quality worthy of praise, and prices that feel not merely fair, but gracious. A lesser restaurant might rely on polish. Mulino relies on substance. And substance, when done this well, has a beauty all its own. I came expecting dinner. I left reminded that the finest meals are not always found beneath the brightest signs or behind the grandest doors. Sometimes they are waiting quietly in a small family restaurant, prepared by people who know exactly what they are doing. Ristorante Mulino is excellent. I will return -- happily, hungrily, and without hesitation.

I've driven past this restaurant many times and it's always busy, so I stopped by for dinner on a…read moreThursday evening before 7 and it was still packed. We were greeted right away and seated in about five minutes. Everyone was so friendly, and we felt well taken care of. They started us off with complimentary freshly grilled bread and an herby olive oil. We began with the arancini, which came with five generously sized pieces. The marinara sauce complemented it well, and they were very filling. For the main, we shared a pizza, and they were able to do half margherita. All the desserts looked appealing, but we went with the tiramisu, which was loaded with fresh cream. I could see how hard the wait staff was working, and the atmosphere felt cozy. I look forward to coming back and trying their pastas next time.

Beautifully plated and presented. Happy friendly faces! The taste was amazing, never have I ever had bad food here, And I have eaten at DeVivo's since Frankie was there. (God Bless his Soul) I miss my friend. I'd recommend the Monti Christo. Amazing treat for a beautiful morning. They do serve gluten free and that was my wife's fav Thank God the coffee is always delicious! The only complaint (if that) was the price. A good breakfast for 2 with tip was over $40.

It is family owned and they offer order in advance or purchase there.

The bistro's in town are fun and casual but every once in a while you need something a little bit more gastronomically complex. They were very accommodating to my two littles. Our server was very busy but on point. They had a great wine bottle special. 50% off any bottle under $199. Salad was tasty and fresh. Had got Cacio E Pepe as a second dish before our entrées. Which I highly recommend doing. That's not an easy dish to do, but they executed it perfectly. Nice thick noodles similar to the Pici and Bigoli , you see in Tuscany. They also had a pretty sizable prime New York strip for under $70 which is pretty impressive. Most restaurants would've charged 85 or more for that steak. It was cooked perfectly. Char medium rare. Everything was fantastic. They even made us a complementary dessert with happy anniversary message. Highly recommend.

Once again, this was a wonderful Yelp event. Kendall and Postino's, thank you very much…read more We chose to visit around the time of opening. After noon, you can expect the crowd to significantly increase and it will become busy. We ran into that, towards the end of our visit. With the increase in traffic, it was nice to be tended by more than one waiter. I didn't think about it then, but I would have loved to tip the second person, as well. When going to Postino's, I always try to get something new and they never fail to impress. Drink: The Mockingbird (Mocktail) - bright pineapple, a touch of Italian orange, and toasted almond bitters. This was very good and is something I'd get again. The Board: Brie, Apple & Fig Spread - this is a repeat for me, I absolutely love it. The apples are always fresh, crisp, and juicy. This is so perfect! Prosciutto Di Parma, Fig & Mascarpone - another repeat, I can't go to Postino's without having this on my board. Mushroom & Mascarpone - If you're a lover of mushrooms, you'll enjoy these little bites. I did notice, we did not get the green onions this time around and I was okay with that. They were removed, due to the current outbreak. Great thinking, Postino's! Salami & Pesto - This always closes the board for me, I love this combination. Although, I will add, I think a different type of salami would work best with this combination. West Coaster Panini - (Smoked ham, smashed avocado, arugula, roasted garlic aioli, pickled red onion, Calabrian chili, feta cheese. For my side, I chose the tomato soup, my goodness, was it good. I must say, it is the best tomato soup, I've ever had. It was creamy, packed with flavor, and complimented my panini so well. Also, they add cheese tortellinis to the soup as well. So, good! This was very delicious, the ham stood out and wasn't muted. However, I think I will get another bread next time. I chose the focaccia, it was a bit too much bread for that particular sandwich. I will admit, it doesn't beat their prosciutto and brie panini; that sandwich is divine. Hot Donut Dots - (House made ricotta donut holes with salted butter chocolate, caramel and vanilla glaze dipping sauces.) These are superb and packs a lot in one bite. The cream in the middle is so smooth and full of flavor, but is very heavy. I'm not a cookies and milk person, but this dessert craves a tall glass of milk. They were hot, fresh, and I appreciate the fact that even when fried, they were not swimming in grease. The vanilla dipping sauce was my go-to, of the three sauces. They did well with this dessert, it hit all of the bases. Postino's is a great place to visit with friends, a date, or even as a solo-day/night out. They are one of my top 5 restaurants and I don't see that changing, ever!

This is a relatively quick trick to the location to enjoy a dinner with a friend. Overall, I would…read moresay it was a great experience. Initially I came to take advantage of a deal, however, do know that the $25 board and wine combo is only available Mondays and Tuesdays after 8 PM, and we were there around 4:30. However, despite that overlook on my part, the food definitely did not disappoint! We had an amazing server. She was easily available , quick, and accommodating. My friend had some dietary restrictions and she was quick to ask about them, and make needed modifications without any issue. Extremely kind, and fun to be around, she had some great suggestions for items on the menu. The environment was definitely more relaxed, however, the pace was definitely picking up when we left. As I mentioned we were there right before people seem to be getting out of work, and it seemed like a lot of people are making their way and to enjoy an evening meal or happy hour. We easily got a spot in front, however, if there happens not to be any available, there's lots of parking behind Lush on the opposite side of the road. I'm hoping to go back and try one of the boards, I've had one prior at different locations, but I'm sure it would be just as great here!
