I was so impressed with the entire experience at Spigola's! When walking into the restaurant, I was in awe of the huge space and swanky atmosphere. I felt like I was in the city with the gorgeous lighting and ambiance. My friend and I went on ladies night, where every Wednesday they have a DJ and 10% off food/drinks at the bar! We started off with 3 different apps, the zucchini fritte, the meat and cheese board for two, and the rice balls. Everything was phenomenal! The rice balls were stuffed with shredded beef instead of ground beef which I liked and the Gorgonzola cheese sauce was tangy and savory. The zucchini fritte was fried to a golden crisp and felt light and satisfying. The meat and cheese board is truly perfect for pairing with some pre-dinner drinks! Neither of us felt like drinking that night so I got the Stella Rose red berry spritz and she got the black berry spritz. These were fruity and sweet and perfect for a night out. Great alcohol free options. For dinner I got the cacio e pepe which came in a huge serving. The pasta was cooked perfectly al dente and I really liked how creamy and cheesy it was without feeling too heavy. My friend got the eggplant rollatini which was a humongous portion and she devoured it and still had some for leftovers. These were both great meat-free options. For dessert I had the chocolate lava cake which was rich and decadent. Perfect for sharing but mine was all for me! My friend had the creme brûlée which she indulged on without a single bite to spare! Can't forget to mention the impeccable service! Our server Andres was so sweet and took excellent care of us and always checked in with us. I'm so glad I finally checked out Spigola! This is a perfect restaurant for a great meal. Since it is an elevated atmosphere, this makes it extra special for birthdays, anniversaries, date nights, etc. With their big event space in the back, Spigola's is a wonderful spot for showers, rehearsal dinners, parties, even intimate weddings. What a wonderful gem to have in the Mercer county dining scene! read more

Ordered takeout from here for my first time and it was delicious! I got the chicken parm with extra penne pasta and it was a very good portion of both chicken and pasta! They also send home slices of toast with garlic chunks. The chicken was very good and the sauce was yummy! I am going to try here a few more times to see if they are consistent. I'll try eating in the restaurant next time. I'd like to add on I spoke to the manager when I called and he was very friendly and accommodating! I'll be back here soon! read more

Big surprise. Feels like you're in a bar in the city. Food is awesome. Bartenders are great. five stars for ambiance

The service is incredible here! Super kind and attentive. Plus the space is big and open and I think they have a big room in the back. The shrimp pasta was a bit too lemon-y for my taste. I think the lamb and risotto was the best dish we ordered! read more

My boss talked about this company from day one when I started my new career in NC. He said he was taking us up to NJ for work but really for the food here. This place did not disappoint. Excellent food, excellent service, excellent everything. Our waiter was awesome and took care of us. I ordered the Tomatillo al Limoncello that was on as a special. Awesome homemade pasta and the scallops were on point. I was worried that the cream sauce would be too heavy but it was not. Only thing I wish I would have gotten with that meal would be like a homemade dinner roll to eat more of that sauce...so good. I am so glad we came here for dinner...I will definitely be back! read more

Very disappointing. Now full disclosure this was a take-out order but you're looking at $40 dishes for just pasta here, so it better be good once you receive it. I went with calamari with homemade pasta. The pasta was soggy, and the calamari honestly did not have flavor. Total bust. My girlfriend got a gluten free pasta dish which she said she enjoyed. My dad had the Fri Diavolo with shrimp but by God man it was hot. I do not order Fri Diavolo anymore personally as I don't want to feel like it's a chore to finish your meal, if something is too hot imo it does not complement the dish anymore but takes away from the dish. My dad claims he enjoyed it but sometimes I feel people say things are good just because they do not want to admit they made the wrong decision. I been to the restaurant before in person and have taken out now, but this spot is not my cup of tea. Some people absolutely rave about this spot on yelp however to them I say bon a petit! As always people SYOY!!! read more

Came to Spigola for a late birthday dinner, and the experience was excellent from beginning to end. Even though we arrived later in the evening, the restaurant was very accommodating, and the staff was warm, polite, and welcoming. Our server was fantastic, well-mannered, informed, and genuinely friendly, which really made the night feel special. I ordered a steak, and it was cooked perfectly - tender, flavorful, and exactly how I like it. The freshly made garlic bread was another standout. I haven't been eating bread lately, but I had to indulge... and it was absolutely worth it! The restaurant has a large bar inside that adds a lively touch to the atmosphere while still feeling relaxed and comfortable. It's located in a plaza behind the Wawa on Route 130, with plenty of parking available. Overall, it was a great place to celebrate and unwind. read more

Wrong Turn, Right Restaurant My wife and I had just picked up supplies to build a zen meditation fountain in our backyard (because nothing says tranquility like arguing over plumbing parts in a Lowe's parking lot). We made a wrong turn on the way home, and somehow ended up at Spigola Restaurant and Bar in Hamilton. Best wrong turn we've ever made. We walked in hungry, tired, and still slightly bickering about PVC pipe--within minutes, we were totally disarmed by the warm atmosphere and our amazing waitress, Daphne. She was funny, fast, and somehow knew exactly what we needed before we did. If you watch The Bear, you know how chaotic a kitchen can be--Spigola felt like the polished, grown-up version of that world, where everything works and nobody's screaming "Yes, Chef!" (Though I might've whispered it when the short rib hit the table.) The short rib was fall-apart tender and rich. The grilled octopus was charred just right--crispy edges, soft inside, like they fished it out of the Mediterranean that morning. And the chocolate mousse cake? Absolute perfection. My wife tried to share it evenly. I respectfully declined. We didn't mean to end up at Spigola. But now we'll be going back on purpose. read more

Until today I have only eaten at Spigola in person. It has been delicious. I was craving chicken parm and saw them on DoorDash so I decided to go for it. First I called them - the number on door dash didn't work so I just looked on their website and called that number. I got Mike the manager and explained that it looked like I could mark a gluten allergy when ordering but I wanted to make sure as it is not worth taking a chance. Mike was great. He told me to place the order and mark the allergy and then to call him back and he would make sure to take the specifics. I called and true to his word he went through my order and we agreed that the pasta would be gluten free and the chicken would be grilled. Everything came correct and was wonderful. It tasted awesome and it was such a nice treat. I really appreciated their assistance and ensuring that I did not get sick. I give Mike and his team an A+ for service and quality. Will be back again. read more

All of it food staff service all excellent recommend shrimp scampi and vodka pasta and summer baratta and peach salad

I recently attended the inauguration/Grand Opening at Spigola Vino e Cucina in Hamilton Township New Jersey, this restaurant has been my regular stop for business meetings, luncheons banquets all types of entertainment. Always a great success for the past 25+ years. It was recently sold and no changes to staff or menu except upgrades and take place. The place looks fabulous. The food is over the top service as well. The ribbon-cutting at the opening was a great success. We were rocking everybody to try it again. Absolutely friendly high-quality, and an outstanding Chef & Staff.. The new owners are highly qualified restaurant tours and successful entrepreneurs in the business world & and bring a very new and fresh look and flavor to a long time existing Italian restaurant, which should go on for many many many years. read more

So this is a four star review for just one reason..... cost. The place is very nice! The service is excellent, as was the food! I had the Berkshire Pork Chop and I can say it may have been the best pork chop I have EVER had! My GF had chicken and loved it. We invited another couple for dinner and after 6 glasses of wine, two apps, and four entrees.....with tip, the bill came to $350!!! If it was $100 less, I would DEMAND that you go here! I still think you should try it but just be prepared as other reviews I read were right.... pricey. read more

On Friday my Wife and I celebrated our anniversary at Spigola. We have lived in the area a long time and always wanted to try it. We now have a favorite place to go. The atmosphere, staff and food were awesome. We will definitely be frequent customers. read more

The owner is beyond amazing and attentive and the chef deserves a Michelin star for bringing true Italian home cooking to the community. The wine list is impeccable and the specialty beverages will appeal to every connoisseur. We started with the baby grilled lamb chops... succulent perfection. Then the caesar salad which was better than any five star Manhattan venue. The frutta di mare for two was a piece de resistance. The panchetta in the Carbona was delicioso and the cannoli for desert was perfect. The plating was so appealing. Portions were generous. The problem is everything is so delicious you are tempted to over order. A must try- read more
