You will have to wait perhaps an hour or more but it's worth it. The ambiance is...well maybe rustic and old school. I'll just say do not come for the atmosphere. It's all about the food and the service. Seafood pescatore is a signature dish. It's loaded with sea scallops, bay scallops, rock shrimp, jumbo shrimp, calamari, clams, mussels, and more. I get this all the time but you can't go wrong with any seafood dish here. I was told the owner goes to the docks and personally selects the fish for the week. If you are in the area or even if you have to drive a long way Ninos is the best on my book!

Had a nice time overall at this Italian spot. We started with the calamari and Brussels sprouts…read more The calamari was a bit underwhelming--lacking in flavor and seasoning. However, the Brussels sprouts were a highlight: nicely crisped and well-seasoned. For the main course, I had the veal piccata, which comes à la carte, so I ordered a side of linguini. The veal was excellent--tender and flavorful with a lemony sauce. The linguini was just okay, nothing particularly memorable. We also tried the lobster pasta, which was a standout--rich, flavorful, and well-balanced. All in all, a pleasant dining experience with a few strong dishes. Would return, especially for the veal and lobster pasta.

Review: Mangia Pizza & Pasta - Rio Grande, NJ…read more Mangia Pizza & Pasta is a great little pizza spot conveniently close to the ocean, making it an easy stop before or after the beach. The service is friendly and efficient, and the food overall is very good. We tried the Margherita Nonna's pizza. The crust was very crispy and well‑done, which we loved. The sauce could use a bit more flavor--some garlic, oregano, or Parmesan would really elevate it--but the base and texture were excellent. The rest of the menu offers solid Italian comfort dishes, making it a reliable choice for a casual meal. A nice local spot with good food and a welcoming vibe. I'll definitely be back.

The freshness of the food, the care in selecting ingredients, and the interaction with both the staff and the owner truly put this restaurant over the top. We started with stone crabs, followed by a risotto with Wagyu, sole over pasta, and a lobster ravioli for our mains. Every dish was prepared to absolute perfection, using hand-selected, high-quality ingredients. The owner personally came over to describe how he choose their products and craft each dish, which made the entire experience feel even more special. Exceptional food, exceptional service -- an unforgettable meal. Highly recommend.

Our server/waitress was outstanding. She was attentive, friendly, helpful, and had a great sense of humor. She made a difference. It makes such a difference when you have great service and Spiaggetta clearly understands that! There were 16 of us and the highlights were the Carbonara, Pork Ossobuco, meatballs, and Veal Saltimbocca. You can't go wrong with any of those. Ony disappointment was the Octopus. Two of us had the appetizer and it was burnt and tough for each of us. I mentioned it to our server and while she seemed to truly want to know our view, she did not make an adjustment on our bill, which frankly she should have. She did mention the octopus was prepared by a new chef and I am sure he will get better. It sat on a bed of Tuscan beans, which were delicious! She said the executive chef prepared all but the octopus. Hopefully next time. And Spiaggetta has not been infected by the credit card fee virus like a few others in Stone Harbor. They did not charge a percent convenience fee, which we appreciated. They get 5 stars just for that. We cannot wait to be back!
