    Grilled chicken caesar salad - excellent
    Go Bruins 1.

    Neighborhood institution. A family operation run by dad, mom and their son. Used to order from here often when we lived nearby. Nice to come back. It's definitely worth the hour drive to check out the old neighborhood, especially Petrillo's. One of our favorite deli in NJ, along with Fiori in Hoboken. Food is wonderful, but twice the portion compared to other places and with very reasonable prices. Check out their daily specials, especially their meat loaf, hot turkey, pepper steak, ribs, stuffed peppers, pasta, etc. They also make wonderful pizza with their sicilian being our favorite. Wonderful service. Highest recommendations. : 10 heros Note: This place gets very busy, especially during weekday lunch, so best to call and place your order.

    What a great local deli! I got the Italian sandwich and it came packed with meat. There was a great balance between the meat and veggies as well. Would highly recommend if you're craving an authentic Italian sandwich.

    My wife and I traveled here from Cape Cod in search of the best pizza from Rockland County NY through Bergen County NJ. We eventually landed here at Petrillos and met John and his parents working behind the counter. An old school hard-working family making traditional pizzas. We were blown away by what they had created, a super tasty combination of classic sauce and the perfect amount of cheese on a slightly crispy underbody with a soft but crisp crust. We ordered 13 pizzas that day, 10 plain,1 green pepper & onion, and 2 chicken cutlet and cherry pepper. We also tried an Itialian combo and Turkey sub, both were outstanding. Growing up in Old Tappan I cant beleive I never came here. We have a new can't miss Italian deli on our future trips back here. John and his family are now part of our food family. Pleasue to meet you all and looking forward to coming back. Thank you. Kevin & Melanie.

We gave this establishment a 5-star review but on a scale of 1-10 we gave our highest review 9.8 only because there has to be room for something higher, we just haven't found it yet. Keep up the good work, this will always be a stop on our road trips from the Cape. You are officially part of our food world family, La Famiglia. Thank you, from Kevin & Melanie. Ps. I grew up in Old Tappan.

    The staff is so nice! Definitely a good Sicilian slice. Just thick enough and good sauce to cheese ratio. Next time I will try the eggplant sando.

    Cousins Pizza 450 Livingston St…read more Norwood, NJ 07648 Caprese Slice Drunk Angry Nonna Slice I decided to stop by for a couple of specialty pizza slices. There was a large variety of slices offered. I only problem I had was choosing because I wanted to explore them all. Caprese Slice: This slice is smothered in pesto sauce and topped with feta and chunks of tomato. You will definitely need a fork and knife to finish this wedge. Drink Angry Nonna Slice: This slice is cooked in vodka sauce, topped with pepperoni cups, and drizzled in hot chili oil. While the other slices have an appearance identical to an isosceles triangle, the nonna looks like a scalene triangle. Regardless, it is the taste, not the shape, that matters. Both slices were a home run! They had excellent undercarriage and no flop, which is why they were very crispy. The ratio of sauce was proportioned perfectly and they were loaded with toppings. I was also pleased they each slice was served on a glass plate. The interior has a nice ambiance. A small casual style dining area is off to the left of the pizzeria. The main dining room is located on the right side, where customers can order three course dinners and bring their own bottle of alcohol. Owner Andrew made me feel right at home. He welcomed me into the restaurant and I am really looking forward to returning for a nice dinner in the main dining area. #cousinspizza #cousinspizzanorwood #drunkangrynonnaslice #drunkangrynonna #capreseslice

We began with the seafood salad...a delicious mix of tender squid, scungilli, octopus, and shrimp over lightly dressed arugula. It was a beautiful portion and paired perfectly with their warm focaccia and garlic infused olive oil. Then came the complimentary salads before the best grilled lamb chops entrée I've had in years. Outstanding. A full rack of tender, flavorful, juicy baby rib chops served with broccoli rabe and roasted potatoes. OMG. While devouring this meal, I was a bit without words. Did I mention it was a full rack?! We also enjoyed a bottle of their house Cabernet with dinner. Very smooth and a solid table wine for the price. It paired beautifully with the lamb, and the other entree we got...homemade fresh pasta with short rib ragu. Wow... that really was the best entrée I've had anywhere in a long time, and it puts Bosfa in my top three restaurants. P.S. Sign up for their rewards program!
