I visited Nunzi's for a work managers outing, and it was such a great experience! We ordered a variety of dishes to share, which made it fun to try a little bit of everything. The atmosphere gave chic, upscale vibes while still feeling comfortable. The bartender was amazing and made every drink to perfection,seriously impressive! And the espresso martini? Absolutely to die for. Overall, I had a great time and would definitely go back! read more

I do apologize for the backdated review. I can't believe I forgot to post it. My experience was excellent. Me and my date went on 11/26. Service was amazing. Food was delicious and the drinks were fabulous. Thanksgiving Eve met up with my date at Nunzi's It was giving "Hot Stuff" -- literally. I walk in with my date, and before my coat even unbuttons, Donna Summer herself is serenading me like I'm about to strut down a disco runway. Perfect timing. We were the first ones in the restaurant, which honestly made me feel like they opened the whole establishment just for my convenience. The host said, "Pick any table." Baby, don't threaten me with a good time. I saw that corner booth--cute, cozy, and prime real estate for flirting like I'm auditioning for a romantic comedy--and I claimed it like the last good parking spot at Target. The vibe? Oh, this restaurant is so my ministry. Trendy, modern, dimly lit like they're doing me a personal favor. If you're a social media fanatic like me. The entire décor is basically screaming, "Make a reel, post a story, take a selfie sis." The soundtrack? Disco, 70s and 80s R&B, a sprinkle of house. My favorite genres. The stuff that makes you want to shimmy your shoulders while pretending you're not checking out your date's jawline. The drinks? Oh honey... I ordered a blueberry lavender margarita because lavender is my personality at this point. My date got a banana Jameson old fashioned. I asked for a sip, took a sip, then instantly contemplated snatching his whole glass and telling him to order something else. It was that good. I asked the waiter about the pineapple infused vodka. "Can you taste the alcohol?" He said, "No, and that's the problem." I said, "Say less." Sold. LMAO. Had it in a martini fashion. Now for the food. We started with the Oh My Garlic Bread. Except... Oh My, what happened? The cheese was barely melted and the bread wasn't toasted enough. I wanted feral, unhinged, cheese-pull, toasted bread madness. I got "this could've been great but someone clocked out early." Sadness. It did come with a side of their delicious sauce and spicy vodka sauce. But THEN... that fried burrata came out like Beyoncé at the Superbowl. Melty, gooey, fried perfection. Cheese is my favorite food group and that burrata had me emotionally compromised. We also got Grandma's Meatballs. Delicious and they held their own and in chunky tomato sauce, with a dollop of ricotta? Mama mia, yes. For pasta, the server suggested the spicy rigatoni or the linguine bolognese. We went bolognese, and baby... that plate was giving comfort, warmth, cozy blanket energy. Delicious. Finished the night with the chocolate chip cookie sundae. Great ending, but listen--at an Italian restaurant, my middle-aged spirit WANTED tiramisu or a cannoli. I'm traditional like that. Overall? Five glittery stars. I will absolutely be back--probably dragging my work bestie for a happy hour where we judge men and eat fried cheese. read more

What a vibe! The space is gorgeous - it has that late-night Sex and the City energy in the best way. Our waiter was so kind and attentive, always checking in on us. The food was fantastic. We shared a pizza and zucchini chips to start, and everything came out hot and delicious. There were six of us, the restaurant was completely packed, and yet the service was still impressively timely. My only note: given how large the restaurant is, they really should convert the women's bathroom into a two-stall setup. There's definitely enough room, and the line was pretty long. Overall, such a great experience! read more

First off the ambiance is wonderful, I loveeee the cleaning and design of the place, great visual aesthetics. The appetizers were very unique and tasty. The food was typical American Italian food. The spicy vodka sauce was actually delicious, but I felt like the price did not match the quality of the food. Our server was wonderful. He even let me change the sauce in my pasta, which was very sweet and he actually was a great server because there was about 18 of us driving him crazy lol read more

Nunzi's gives romantic vibes, with classy decor and fabulous food. You walk into a dimly lit restaurant, with a friendly hostess and you're seated promptly. There are small lights on the tables to help view your menu better. For drinks, we decided on their fall forward Sangria and a blueberry lavender margarita. Both were refreshing and tasty, and beautiful to look at. We started out with the fried ravioli and a dish called "Italian Nachos", and it's just that. The raviolis were crisp on the outside, cheesy on the inside. The nachos were fun, with a huge dollop of ricotta on top and sausage hidden inside, full of fun flavors. We next enjoyed a Margherita pizza, the crust is crispy, the sauce well seasoned and the perfect amount of mozzarella. It was accompanied by their harvest salad, with arugula, walnuts and pieces of roasted butternut squash, very fall forward. Our absolute favorite dish was next, their butternut squash ravioli! The sauce was rich and decadent, the ravioli were cooked to perfection, I swear we licked the plate clean! We finished our meal with a special dessert, a peanut butter & jelly french toast. Sweet, with a cinnamon sugar coating, and flavors reminiscent of an old after-school favorite, it was a great way to end our meal. I would go back a thousand times, and recommend others do the same. read more

Nunzi's really impressed me, as I was not expecting it to be as good as it turned out to be, but I highly recommend this spot for a date night. The interior is very sexy and charming, low light, neon signs, big wall art, and comfortable booths, I liked the vibe in here all night. The server was a friendly guy, personable, talked a bit, made some rec's, and we ordered a pizza to split and some other things. The pizza really impressed me, it was better than a lot of pizza spots I've been too, and can sing praises about the pie, and you'll bring some slices home cause it's decently big. My girl got the Chicken Parm, which was made the right way. Crispy cutlet, not too much cheese or sauce. But the MVP of the meal is actually, the Spicy Vodka Sauce, really special, and what Nunzi's is known for. Great place, loved it, 4 stars. read more

Came here on a quiet Monday night for a business dinner with a colleague. It was not crowded or busy so we were seated right away. We both gravitated to the Chicken Parm with spicy vodka sauce and did the weird thing by ordering the same meal! Service was great, fast and efficient. The chicken was cooked to perfection and that vodka sauce was spot on. I'd definitely recommend giving it a try for yourself. read more

My favorite ever. Best spicy rig and tortellini. Amazing Mac and cheese bars. The corn and burrata salad is amazing as well. Great group dinner options read more

We came here for happy hour and i must say 10/10 the apps were bomb and so were the drinks! Its a nice ambiance as well. I thought the deals were good as well. I had a coconut martini which was so good. The mac n cheese bars the breading was nice. The zucchini chips were a highlight for me ! The cheese was a nice touch. And the pizza is a decent size for the price. Id check them out read more

For me the food was just above diner food. Ordered the scallops which were ok... it came with several vegetables that were swimming in oil and a ton of garlic and over salted. They did make a salad to my liking and the dressing was very good. My friend had linguine bolognese that looked good and it was a nice size portion. The atmosphere was very loud and chaotic it's ok if you're into that. I couldn't wait to leave . Service was very polite. read more

Excellent food. I only had takeout and haven't dined in but I know people who have dined in and they gave positive feedback.

Very trendy & attracts young crowd Calamari appetizer was super salty & chewy.. chicken milanese was paper thin, overcooked & incredibly hard to cut....one & done...horrible experience. read more

Found this place searching on yelp and it's definitely a new fav date spot! Food was delicious! Started with the calamari and it was perfect. I got the spicy rigatoni alla vodka, my wife got the baked penne. Both were absolutely incredible! Finished with fried Oreos and ice cream, equally delicious. To drink I got the blueberry lavender margarita, she got the fall sangria. Our server Micheal was so wonderful and personable. Overall we have found a new date night spot and can't wait to go back. read more

The vibe is trendy - casual , the food is okay but nothing to make me feel the need to go back. I had pizza and chicken Milanese . Enjoyable but by no means memorable. Service was good . I would choose this place if you're going with a group and the budgets of the friends are varied so everyone is comfortable. read more

I've eaten dinner here with several groups of people and everybody walks out, saying the exact same thing. What a great spot the food is always really good and hasty. The portion sizes are large and the staff is always helpful. Overall, the vibe and atmosphere is exactly that I'm a Friday or Saturday night out and fun times to be had my parents and couples without kids. Drink menu is good with lots of creative options. Always a place I look forward to going back to you for dinner. read more

OUTSTANDING! I was just there this past Friday and had a blast! The food, the service and the atmosphere are all amazing. DJ Nico pumping out the music and the place was bumping. Then there was Anthony, Ryan, Jake and the Manager Mike who all went out of their way to make us comfortable so we could have the best experience possible and they totally nailed it! God bless you all and the devotion to your customers. I happen to dine out quite often, the experience at Nunzi's was exceptional and deserved acknowledgment! read more

the Italian nachos were so fun and delish. layers of super thin crispy "chips" topped w. meatballs, ricotta, mozz, and chopped cherry peppers. paired w. some delicious cocktails, spicy mezcal jalapeño marg, which was actually spicy, in the best way, and a pineapple infused citrus vodka martini, burrata rigatoni and chicken milanese were also great. cute spot and our server Anthony was 10/10. read more

False advertisement .. they say half off for ladies night on Thursday .. haha B. S .. don't Believe it ..

Such good food! Came here on a Friday night for a birthday dinner & the food topped my expectations. Friday night ambiance was loud which makes it difficult to hear but at least the servers don't have an issue with that ha! Recommend the limoncello wings, meatballs, & the prosciutto arugula pizza (4 stars) for apps and the spicy rigatoni alla vodka (add the chicken cutlet!) for an entree. Others in the party all enjoyed their entrees as well (pork chops, filet mignon, grandmas special) read more

Nunzi's - Spicy Rigatoni alla vodka with added chicken cutlet & added red pepper flakes (no it does not come doused like this) - Italian Near Me - Farmingdale, New York

First impression was wow. Whoever designed this space knew what they were doing. Slightly on the dark side offers a romantic environment for date night. The bar is off to the side behind a partition which allows for loud talking drinkers (my girlfriends) to have their space as well without intruding on diners. The wings were sweet and tangy. The Mac and cheese sticks were scrumptious. I have to say my shrimp over risotto had to be the best I've ever had. Who doesn't love snappy shrimps. This with a glass of Chardonnay made this the perfect dining experience. Super glad they were participating in restaurant week. read more

As someone who loves Italian food, this place was on my list to check out. The service was quick and our waiter was very nice and informative. We all ordered the spicy rigatoni pasta which has been added to my list of favorite pastas. The noodles were nice and soft and the burrata cheese was creamy. I got breaded chicken on my pasta which was really nice. We got the cheese sticks side which is just a cheese toast with soup. It was the perfect starter for an entree to follow. Although the pasta was a lot of food, it didn't feel too heavy. We all got non-alcoholic cocktails which were all nicely done. The restaurant itself is super chic and cute. Perfect for a date night or night out. The decoration is very artistic and the music was really good. Will definitely come again! read more

Order from here like once a week. The spicy rigatoni is my favorite. They got a perfect spicy vodka sauce. My 3 year old chugs down water but keeps eating the noodles. My daughter's go to no matter what is the Mac and cheese bars. Shout out to Liz and Naz for always making sure my order is perfect! read more

I came here on a Tuesday night at 7 PM with three friends. We made a reservation but on that day, you definitely didn't need it, we got seated right away in a booth. The restaurant is very modern chic, which I was not expecting! We ordered the calamari as an appetizer. It was very crispy with a mix of the legs and the rings and it came with a butter dipping sauce. My friend ordered the lamb lollipops and they do ask how you want them cooked; she ordered them medium and she loved them. I ordered the chicken Parm alla vodka, but instead of linguini I asked to get rigatoni. The chicken parm came with two big servings of chicken and I had plenty of leftovers. The vodka sauce is not that spicy, which is perfect for me. My only critique is that I wish it just a little bit saucier, but that's personal preference. The service was incredibly fast and we were done in about an hour! I would definitely come back for more chicken parm alla vodka! read more

Poor service. Our reservation was a delayed for an hour. Food is average nothing special.

Amazing and an outstanding job by their team. Could not have had a better experience. The place is set up really nice. 10 plus stars, if possible! Above and beyond our expectations. About 1.5 years ago, based on Yelp reviews, I started interfacing with Michael, one of the owners of Nunzi's of Farmingdale, NY, about a Celebration of Life Party, at his restaurant, when the time comes for my mom's passing. Our mom recently passed during the July 4th timeframe and Michael, his brother, Vincent and their extreme team went into action. Pricing was extremely reasonable for the services, food and drinks provided. We were not sure how many people would come from the cemetery to the restaurant, but we had 15 total. Food starters for the group - Calamari - fried with cherry peppers, grape tomatoes, white wine butter sauce and we added marinara. Lemon Wings - grilled lemon slices and calabrian pepper. Amazing Lemon Flavor and crisp. Italian Eggrolls- sweet/hot Italian sausage, broccoli rabe, and pecorino with mozzarella cheese. One of the best dishes. My spouse couldn't get enough! Grandma's Meatballs - tomato sauce, fresh herbed ricotta, also amazing. Main dishes - Pizzas were fantastic and also amazing, along with the below dishes, were folk's lunches. Had someone that only Does Kosher - No Meat - she had the Eggplant Parm - classic home-style tomato sauce, pecorino and cleaned her plate. Had Full Vegan - No Animal- Plant only and he had the Bow Tie Pasta less cheese and butter - Olive oil instead - cauliflower, garlic, pistachio, toasted breadcrumbs. He really enjoyed the food and that they accommodated his Vegan requirements the best they could. Took a to go for his Girlfriend! PEI Mussels - or white wine garlic sauce and crostinis - the person gobbled up and cleaned her dish. Chicken Parm - Excellent - wish I got their Chicken Pizza instead, but this was too hard to pass up. Reheated leftover later for a snack. Yummy. Folks that were able to take the leftovers home, have NOT stopped talking about the food. If you are close by or want to travel a little, or as they are close to several LI cemeteries, or other social events, this is the place to reach out to for such events. You will be taken care of 150% Plus. Highly recommend. Thanks to Vincent, Michael and Alfredo for an amazing afternoon. They made a celebration of life, during trying family times, into an easy. no worries event to plan. read more

Authentic Italian food. Beautifully plated and photo worthy, everything is best enjoyed immediately while fresh. The atmosphere is chill, with modern, relaxing music playing. Large booths, tables, and bar seating is available. Greeted the moment I entered, seated almost immediately. The hostess (Naz) fumbled her words a little (haha) and had such a positive attitude. Madison, another worker, quickly sat me at a table and gave me a brief, detailed overview of the menu to help me choose my dishes. Off to a great start! Here's what I ordered: - Spicy Rigatoni Alla Vodka: A safe choice at italian restaurants if the menu has it. I went ahead and added burrata and a chicken cutlet. So freaking good. - Limoncello Wings: Grilled to perfection, with a beautiful glaze on them. Very lemony, very different, but good! It definitely hits different and throws you off because it looks like sweet & sour sauce. - Eggroll Italiano: Two egg rolls fried and cut in half, these smelled wonderful. The ingredients looked amazing. Dipped in marinara, it's delish. A little on the salty side but still good. - 1274: This cocktail is amazing. The elderflower from the Empress gin and the hint of sweetness from the honey makes this taste so good. 10/10, I would have ordered 4 more glasses. - Crispy Apple Pie Rolls: Wow. Pretty much like a fried apple pie with a side of my favorite, vanilla ice cream. Mine was topped with chocolate drizzle. By far the nicest staff that I've ever encountered. Everyone is so courteous and polite. Makes me want to move back here from CA! I highly recommend this place! read more

We had such a lovely and delicious dinner at our first time at Nunzi's. We came on a Monday night to celebrate our anniversary. From the moment we walked through the door, we were made to feel very welcome. The hostess was lovely and asked if we were celebrating anything special. The food that was coming out looked very delicious. Hubby got a cocktail (Espresso Martini) and a glass of wine. Both excellent. Our waiter was great too by the way. We ordered the Steak Sandwich app and Italian Salad. The Steak Sandwich was very delicious, especially with the hot peppers they provide on the side. The portion was huge and I could have this as an entree and be perfectly happy. I'd definitely order again. The Italian salad was like having an Italian sub without the bread, in a bowl plus chick peas. Perfectly dressed salad with cured meats, onion, cheese. Very yummy and not your typical salad. For our entrees we ordered the Spicy Rigatoni Vodka Sauce and the Artichoke Spinach Pizza. The Rigatoni was delicious. Not too spicy and just spicy enough. The pizza was our least favorite. I've had this type of pizza other places and it's been tastier there. It needed a little more seasoning or less mozzarella, more Parmesan or something. It was OK. Perhaps if I hadn't had it executed better elsewhere, I would have been happy with it. Ingredients were very fresh but I guess I wanted it to taste more like your classic spinach artichoke dip but on a pizza. :) Overall it was a great dining experience and we were very happy we came. One thing that we noticed toward the end of the meal, they lowered the lighting and that made a HUGE difference with the ambiance. Much more romantic. When we first walked in, it was very bright. It did feel a bit stark but it wasn't until they lowered the lights, did we realize how much nicer it was with the proper lighting. We were too stuffed for dessert but our hostess didn't want our anniversary not to be recognized. So Nunzi's gave us a complimentary dessert with some fireworks. That was very awesome and generous. They certainly didn't need to do that. And the dessert was outrageous. It was a scoop of cannoli cream with rainbow cookies blended in and biscotti. Inventive and delicious!! Thank you Nunzi's. Our anniversary celebration was complete. And to top off the amazing experience, our hostess ran out in the FREEZING cold to give us our doggy bag which we forgot. We will be back and we highly recommend Nunzi's!!! read more

Made reservations for a group of 10 during the week. The place itself is not too big. Our waitress was very nice but hard to find. I felt like we were constantly looking for her or asking other ppl for things. The food was delicious but they are on the pricier side. I mean $40 for a chicken Marsala? That's a bit much, the food was great but you can find equally good food elsewhere for way less money. This was def a one and done for me! read more

Round two. Nunzi's is a class act. The owner contacted me and apologized for our experience at his restaurant on my birthday and invited us for another chance. Nunzi's on Thursday night is packed, reservations are highly suggested. The place is full, great music is playing and it seems people are enjoying themselves. Second time here, I wanted to order what we'd normally order at other area Italian restaurants. Charred Octopus: Nailed it. The chef had the right amount of charr as well as the sides. The small potatoes balanced out the dish. Scallops: My wife and I both loved this dish, the sea scallops must have been taken from the middle of the Atlantic Ocean because they were huge. Yuge!! The scallops had a nice sear but the corn puree on the bottom made this dish a home run. Linguine Bolognese: My sister in law is a Bolognese fiend. Big chunks of beef mixed with al dente spaghetti. Perfecto. Nunzi's is a cool spot for a nice glass of Italian wine and some good Italian food. If you're in the area, give them a try. read more

Attentive service, good food, pleasant ambiance, tastefully decorated, soft dance music playing, clean bathroom. The calamari was adequately light and crispy served with a balanced tomato sauce. The Italian egg roll was served with a punchy chimichurri sauce that complemented the inner flavors. The margherita pizza had a good chewy crust, nice sauce and cheese but it was missing the added oomph of basil. The smash burger had very good flavor. Would benefit from some pickles to cut the fatty flavor or something crunchy added for texture such as crispy shallots or bacon. All in all, a lovely meal and I enjoyed my visit to Freeport, Long Island. read more

I was so excited to try this place ! The decor is so cute and this spot makes a great girls night or date night. We started with the sweet and spicy pizza which was my fav thing we ate. It had just the right amount of spice and was full of flavor. I ordered the salmon wrapped with prosciutto which came with a cauliflower puree. The portion wasn't terribly big so if you are starving I'd opt for something different however it was very good. My friend had the spicy rigatoni alla vodka with chicken and burrata. We split the cannoli filled zeppoles for dessert which tasted stale. They were very hard to cut with a knife. I'd love to come back and try other things ! read more
