Great Italian food! Super friendly knowledgeable waiter. Surprisingly, none of our party ordered dishes with traditional red sauce & everything was fresh & delicious. Visited on lovely Spring evening, seated outside, intimate, screened sidewalk space. Even the busy sidewalk car show did not take away from our experience. Parking nearby. read more

Prices were reasonable, food was okay. Nothing to write home about, but it's in a convenient enough spot on main street in Somerville. We went for lunch and went on to enjoy the rest of our day. read more

Savor Restaurant - Chicken francese - New American Near Me - Somerville, New Jersey

Above average Italian restaurant with homemade pastas. Never ate here before and took a chance and was pleasantly surprised. Had artichoke hearts and meatballs for apps, mushroom ravioli and oriechetta for entrees. Salted caramel gelato for dessert. Everything was great from beginning to end and our server was exceptionally polite and attentive. We'll be back! read more

Friend and I were craving some pasta and stopped by this restaurant along the street. Their free bread and olive oil was a great starter, and they were happy to refill for us twice. I got their chicken and spinach pasta special, while my friend got a garlic tomato linguine. I wish I got the linguine- the pasta was perfectly al dente, and the simple flavors really shined. I wouldn't recommend the special I had, not the tiramisu, which tasted like it just came out of the fridge. Other than that, the atmosphere felt like a dine in family restaurant which was nicely dimly lit, and peaceful. That's it from me :^) read more

The Caesar salad was delicious as was the Icelandic cod. Gelato after dinner was a good choice. Go early for dinner or make reservations for weekend. We'll be back. read more

This was a traditional Italian restaurant that had a standard menu with homemade pasta and a few specials. There seemed to be a large party or event area on the left side upon entering and a more casual dining room to the right. The service was kind and friendly as we only ordered appetizers. This was also BYOB. They start with a breadbasket. It came out very hot. It was very tasty. The crust was crisp while the inside was soft and had a nice texture. For appetizers, the eggplant stack ($15) and the Prince Edward Island mussels ($17) were ordered. The eggplant stack consisted of fried eggplant, fresh mozzarella, and roasted peppers with a balsamic glaze. This was solid. The eggplant was crispy and very flavorful. It paired nicely with the mozzarella. The only issue for me on this dish was the roasted peppers. They came out cold and were very thick. It just seemed off when eating the rest of this. The mussels came with tomatoes, basil, roasted garlic, and white wine. There were about two dozen or so mussels. This was okay at best. The sauce lacked flavor even with the thin garlic pieces. The mussels were tasty, but the sauce left a lot to be desired. Will I go back? Probably. read more

Savor Restaurant - New American Near Me - Somerville, New Jersey

Savor in Somerville was a standout dining experience. They started us off with warm, delicious bread that set the tone for the meal. My boyfriend ordered the blackened salmon, which came with rice, vegetables, and baby shrimp--he said it was the best salmon dish he's ever had. I had the linguine Provençal with fresh tomatoes, basil, roasted garlic, and a light white wine sauce. It was vibrant, comforting, and well-balanced. We sat outside, and the outdoor seating was beautiful--especially on a nice evening. Don't forget to make a reservation; it fills up quickly, and for good reason. read more

Surprised to see the lower ratings here. We had a lovely experience. We shared a very generous salad appetizer. I think the menu was a bit limited, but kitchen accommodated my request so I was thrilled. Staff was friendly and efficient. Ambience was nice There are tons of great Italian places in the area. This is not a standout but a fine choice read more

I ordered the NY strip steak (it was my birthday), it was NOT that cut of meat, it had no sear and somehow managed to be gelatinous and chewy at the same time - inedible. My husband ordered the Zappa de pesce and really loved it, my son the vodka pasta that he enjoyed. I was so disappointed in my meal, filled up on the bread. Also, our food took well over an hour to arrive (it was a Tuesday night, not the weekend). Our server was very courteous. Just FYI, it's BYO, but there is a store to buy wine close by. read more

Delicious and fantastic service - plus a BYO! I certainly would recommend any app on their menu. No complaints at all, worth checking out! read more

I ordered the Mahi-mahi special which was served over pasta. It didn't taste like what I was expecting but still flavorful. The restaurant had an inviting ambiance. Savor was one of the few restaurants opened on a Monday, but it wasn't very busy which was great. For an appetizer, I ordered the caprese which had thick cuts of mozzarella and beefsteak tomatoes, basil, and olive oil, drizzle of balsamic glaze. I am obsessed with balsamic, so I should've asked for more on the side. Everything tasted extremely fresh, but the basil tasted as if it was perfectly harvested. For my entree, I planned to get the NY Strip but made a last minute change when I heard the Mahi-mahi was one of the specials for the day. It was dressed with sun-dried tomatoes, garlic, and asparagus which ultimately won me over. If I ordered it again, I would ask for the pasta to be served on the side. Our server was very attentive and helped us with last minute accommodations to our orders. I did request a side of risotto to come out with my entree which never hit the table, but I didn't even notice. There was enough food in front of me. I would return again. read more

I tried the mushroom ravioli- overall found the dish very bland. Similar experience with the chicken rollatini. I think it might have been the marsala wine sauce that was lacking for me as that was a common factor with both dishes. read more

Savor has been able to be open again, after being affected by the fire on Main St. up the block at King Tut, luckily they were only closed for 3 weeks. I'm sure for Rob and staff it felt like 3 months. We went yesterday, was so nice to see the umbrellas up and outside seating ready for guests. We opted for inside seats, near the windows (always great to people watch) for our lunch "date". Can't even count the number of times we have all eaten here, I personally must have been here 50+ times over the years, (not including showers, rehearsal dinners, repasts, and catering) who knows about the other three? Anyways, yesterday, did not disappoint as in any other time. Maybe the smiles on Rob, Lisa and staff were bigger than usual? Salad's were super fresh with dressings that popped, chicken succulent and shrimp cooked to perfection. The home-made rigatoni was al dente with the best vodka sauce in town. Having two sweet tooth's with us, off-course there would be dessert with lunch! The fluffiest, lightest, most-delicious cheesecake with a thick decadent raspberry sauce on top (I tried half of a bite, amazing) and who can pass up home made cannoli's? So glad Savor can be back in the rotation read more

This restaurant was NOT good - fake Italian. Not ONE thing we got was good, and the dessert - hot chocolate lava cake - was actually stale. One of the appetizers was canned or frozen artichoke hearts "francaise." Is this a bad joke?? The "zuppa di pesce" on black ink linguini was just average tomato sauce with steamed seafood thrown on top. The service was mediocre, insisting we place our entire order at once, and not attentive throughout. Having travelled to Italy many times, many regions, please trust me when I tell you - you will NOT savor your meal at Savor! read more

Known for their homemade pasta. Great location in downtown Somerville. Def recommend making a reservation. BYOB. Good food, the sausage and pasta dish is my favorite. Mussels are good, could use a bit more garlic in my opinion. Overall - good experience after going a few times. read more

was here while on vacation. Accidentally left my credit card after paying the bill. Got home....called...they said they had it. I told them I would send my friend in to pick it up. My friend went in a week later and it was not there. They said they shred them every few weeks. WHY would you shred a card someone called for and verified was there and were sending someone in to pick up. Idiots. read more

Delicious fresh salads and pasta. Warm and attentive service. Everything we ate tasted homemade with care. Bring your own wine!

As a native of Italy, I must express my disappointment with this establishment. It fails to meet the standards of an authentic Italian restaurant, merely presenting itself as a pretentious establishment attempting to replicate Italian cuisine. There are superior dining options available in the vicinity. Desert was stale. Never going back. read more

Great menu, great food, great service. there were a number of entrees I want to try. We will be back.

In an area of 500 Italian restaurants very few make their own pasta. How can this be. Well this place does and you can taste it. Menu is simple but always delicious. Vodka sauce is fire. Place is simple and nice inside. It's standard very good Italian without the Instagram hype. read more

We found ourselves in Somerville for a few hours and decided to have lunch. There were many choices and most had ample outdoor seating. After walking a few blocks and reading menus posted by most of the restaurants we decided on Savor. I started with the French onion soup which was fantastic. This is a soup that I automatically order from any restaurant that has it on the menu and I must say that this is one of the best I've tried. My wife ordered the roasted pear salad with pecans, feta, spinach and grape tomatoes in a white wine vinaigrette. It was very good and a nice portion. I ordered the homemade gnocchi in a pesto cream sauce which was pretty good but strangely served in a soup bowl. It was very rich so I had enough to take home for a second meal. My wife ordered the homemade mushroom ravioli in a marsala sauce. Also served in the same soup bowl. I've never seen ravioli shoved into a bowl before. Both dishes would have presented much better on a plate. The Marsala sauce was not thickened so it was more like a broth and the mushrooms seemed to be cooked a little too long but the homemade ravioli made up for it. Overall we had a nice lunch and we both enjoyed our meals. read more

I would rate Savor outstanding for all three - food, service, & ambiance. I love the pasta dishes I've had there and their salad entrees are beautiful because they use mixed greens (not just standard lettuces). The waiters are pros; they know when to pop over, refill water, check if you need anything. read more

From a vegetarian's point of view, the food here is awesome!! I've had the wild mushroom ravioli twice now and it's sooo delicious. The flavor of that dish specifically is so well curated and unique - the sauce/reduction is yummy I could never get tired of that taste. Their Main St salad is my favorite, wish they gave that with the white balsamic instead of raspberry but still good. Unfortunately they don't deliver but their food is worth the trip to pick up. read more

Pass by all the time, finally gave this place a shot and so glad I did. I went with 2 other friends and we all enjoyed our dinner. We were not disappointed with any of our dishes. We sat outside on a beautiful day which was nice. I would definitely go back. There service was a little slow but understandably so. read more

2 couples. 4 meals. All very good to excellent. Reservation for 7pm. Walked in sat right down. Excellent. Service/server - excellent. Ambiance- very good BUT with a hitch. Loud! Having a conversation required talking (and having to repeat ourselves frequently) to hear one another over the noise. It was a crowded Saturday night (which means good food and service). Price including tax and 20% tip was $50 per person. Each couple shared a salad-btw). Not sure if we would go back. We like to have conversations at a normal volume. read more

Food was really good. We both got the chicken francese and it was cooked perfectly. Our server was ok, several times he stared longingly out the window behind us at the street. Had to ask for refills which I really don't mind, but if you're the type to get mad at that, get over it or don't go to restaurants. The reason for the low review, is the restaurant ambiance. It felt like we were eating in a hotel lobby. Weird non-copyright techno music was playing. The walls were peppered with stock photos of random things (there was a city scape next to photo of a beach). Also, I guess they don't have AC, because there were just several small industrial fans. I think maybe they had a water problem? And to top it all off, the table was set as if this was a high end dining experience. Real candles, silverware set, and a high quality cloth. Those are all nice things, but next to the hotel lobby ambiance, huge juxtaposition. read more

Disappointed. Menu looked great service was good, food not so much. Ordered the special appetizer and special entree. In both cases the shrimp was over cooked very tough and rubbery. The purple gnocchi was undercooked as you could taste the flour. Was hoping for a much better tasting meal. read more

Great service and really good food! And it's BYOB! What more could you want? We ordered the antipasta for an appetizer which was a beautiful charcuterie board.
