But, we do know that NJ can have great Italian food-- you just have to know where. This place is so definitely it. The food, staff and service all get rave reviews. We had close to 60 people, with an unbelievably delicious 3 course meal. Staff is easy going, but on top of things. I grew up in NJ, and know that NJ can have great Italian. This place is definitely it. Frank was phenomenal and easy to work with. After a long morning, we couldn't have asked for a better place to be. And, my mom was 100% Italian heritage. I have to believe she was vicariously enjoying everything through us. Thanks to the staff. This review is the least I could do to convey my thanks and appreciation.

It's also BYOB and there is street and lot parking. I recommend getting a reservation as well.

Appetizers: arancini, calamari, and eggplant parm. All were exceptionally good. Next time, I plan on having the arancini and eggplant as my main meal. My better half had the pappardelle special, which I happily finished after she couldn't eat any more. Prima had the monkfish, which she's still talking about a week later. I had the cacio e pepe--perfectly balanced in flavor. For dessert, we shared hazelnut gelato, just as good as any we've had in Europe. BYOB, plenty of parking, and the ambiance was excellent. We'll be back to try the rest of the menu after the deep freeze. Looking forward to having a bike nights this coming spring/summer.

Our first visit to Casa Arturo Bistro in Little Falls was a real winner. The restaurant looks small…read morefrom the street, but it's more spacious than you'd think before walking in. It definitely has a cozy feeling though and is a very pleasant place for relaxing dinner. The restaurant is a BYOB establishment, and they deftly opened our bottle of wine. I would have broken the cork for certain. For starters my father and I both had their version of Oysters Rockefeller. It included six oysters that were prepared with bacon, spinach onions and cream. While not strictly traditional it was absolutely delicious, and we'd order it again. The restaurant also serves Spiedini alla Romano, which you don't see often. We didn't get it this time, but we saw it being served and will definitely try it on our next visit. For entrees we ordered the Veal Francaise. It came with roasted potatoes and vegetables that were perfectly cooked. The veal was tender, and the Francaise sauce was flavorful with a proper lemony note. This is another dish we'll order again. The service was friendly and attentive. The prices are very reasonable. Casa Arturo Bistro is definitely worth a try.

There is a small little parking lot that can fit 4-5 cars right off the main road. Inside was decorated with cute Christmas decor, and the domestic violence scene from Godfather Part 1 casually playing on the TV while I'm trying to eat my food. Good variety of options of appetizers, small shared plates, pizza, fresh pasta, and entrées to choose from our group decided to split the popular pizza. Then everyone offended for themselves - our table ordered the gnocchi with pesto and chicken Milanese, chicken parmigiana with penne, Arancini, and the "focaccia"/house garlic bread. The Arancini was perfectly crisp on the outside and soft and luscious on the inside. The pizza was a perfect sweet and savory combo of burrata, prosciutto, and balsamic glaze. The pesto was a bit thin and ate a little soupier than I prefer. Buyer beware with the focaccia - although it's called focaccia, it's also listed under the pizzas so it was served thin and crispy like a pizza rather than thick and fluffy like we had been expecting. I would absolutely return again to try all the other dishes, especially the shared plates, different pizzas, and other fresh pasta offerings.
