We've been trying to get it her year, finally got a rest that worked with our schedule. Such a nice place, well lit, great service and it's a BYO. The food was amazing, we really liked the appetizer selection. And the fact that they some pasta dishes on the app menu is great. More restaurants should do this. The stand out was the Cacio Pepe. Well sauced, and tasty. The shrimp were perfectly cooked and the Sunday Gravy reminds you of Nonna's house on Sundays. read more

The very first time I had dinner in this restaurant, everything about it was wonderful, but the second time, not so much. I'd built this restaurant up so much to my daughter who was celebrating her birthday, only to be disappointed. Perhaps it was just an off night, but I'd hate to recommend it and have my friends/family be angry with me after spending so much money. Even the service the second time was awful. I'm sorry I can't be more positive. The ambiance is lovely. read more

Delicious fresh pasta dishes. This is a BYOB spot. Reservations needed for weekends for sure. Great service. Chic setting that's also family friendly. I would go back. read more

Sunday Gravy is a casual Italian restaurant located in the central square shopping center in Linwood. It's BYOB with plenty of parking and reservations are a must since they're always busy! You can easily book on resy.com. I've been twice now, and have enjoyed each visit. All their pastas are homemade and their dishes are very flavorful. My husband thought their chicken Parmesan was a little too salty for him with the vodka sauce, but he's sensitive to cream and has more bland of a palate than I do. I thought it was delicious. We had started off with the stuffed gnocchi appetizer. This was hands down the best gnocchi I've ever had! It was like little pillows filled with ricotta in the most scrumptious cream sauce with roasted tomatoes. We wanted to lick the plate, but used the bread to wipe it up instead haha. For my main dish, I had the shrimp scampi with the creamy rice and it was incredible! The shrimp were absolutely perfectly succulent and not overdone and rubbery. The lemon butter sauce was divine. I may opt for the linguine instead next time since I was overloaded with cream after the gnocchi, but it was delicious the next day as leftovers. Service was attentive and well timed. The restaurant is lively and not the biggest, so don't go here expecting a quiet meal. I need to try their dessert next time! read more

Sunday Gravy - Sunday Gravy Entree- rigatoni, sausage, meatball, roast...side asparagus - Italian Near Me - Linwood, New Jersey

I would never comment negatively on the food that SG produces as it is quality. However, the service and management need to drastically improve. My family and I waited for over one hour for our entree after a confusing salad course, our waiter ( young and obviously inexperienced) tried to make up for the multiple errors and we were offered two free desserts for our party of four... we were extremely disappointed. My family and I as well as many business associates have dined at SG often... we truly hope they make some needed improvements . read more

Been trying to eat here for a while, but it's hard to get a res because it's so busy and now I see why. I had shrimp scampi and we started with the best gnocchi ever and a great tomato and burrata salad. Service was excellent and food was delicious. Make sure to save room for dessert and it's BYOB! read more

Delicious food. Make a reservation and bring a bottle of wine. The bread dipping oil is herb infused. Split a salad then get your entree.

I had wanted to try this for a long time and we finally had dinner there on 4th of July. We had great food and we'd both pleased by the experience. Our waitress was professional and our food was excellent. We really enjoyed our experience. read more

A nice setting, good service, and excellent food from a place that we had been wanting to go to for a while.

Food was excellent as usual. Nice ambiance. Service this time felt a bit rushed. We went at 4 pm on a Sunday. We like to have a cocktail before ordering. Just because a place doesn't serve alcohol they should understand that some people don't want to order right of way. Nothing that can't be corrected by management. This trip I had the spaghetti and meatballs with the broccoli rabe and sausage appetizer. Unfortunately the broccoli rabe and sausage risotto balls aren't on the menu anymore. Boy they were one of favorites. My wife got the beet salad which could have been a meal itself and had the scallops appetizer on linguine which she said was excellent. We enjoyed all the food as is the case at this place. We've never had a bad meal here. read more

I expected a lot more. It would probably be fine if it was closer. Servers were fine. 2 entrees needed seasoning. Didn't like their pasta of choice for their signature dish-it was awkward on the fork. The gravy was fine. Calamari strangely sweet, but fine. read more

What a wonderful meal and experience! Anthony was the best part of the night. Can't wait to come back!

Heard good things about Sunday gravy. Italian byob with homemade pasta on par with zeppoli. Server was attentive and helpful as we were asked if it was our first visit. I tried three pastas. All on point. Yes the gnocchi are a 10 out of 10 you have to try. Meal was quick but didn't feel rushed, big crowd waiting for a table as we were leaving. I would recommend and we will return. Didn't have dessert. I mean I had three pastas how more can you consume. Last comment reasonable prices for the quality read more

Sunday Gravy - Bring a good bottle of wine. This is on the list at Steve & cookies. - Italian Near Me - Linwood, New Jersey

The food is always delicious!! Everything we've ever tried from Sunday Gravy has been great. My favorite is the Ricotta Stuffed Gnocchi appetizer...it is AMAZING!!! I'm not usually a big fan of gnocchi but I absolutely love these. They melt in your mouth..I crave them. The restaurant's service & ambiance are also always on point. I highly recommend Sunday Gravy...and I tell everyone I know to try the gnocchi app when you go!! read more

Wow! Probably the best meal we've had in a really long time, and all year with that. You need a reservation to go here and besides the bar I don't think they take walk ins. We managed to get a reservation on a Sunday evening. We were seated promptly. From start to finish everything was great. We ordered the calamari as an appetizer and it was the best we've ever had. So light and crispy with a unique flavorful. Yum. For mains we had the Sunday Gravy, chicken parm, mussels and asparagus for my Grandma and the shrimp and crab fra divolo. Everything was divine. So fresh and flavorful. We wished we were able to come back another night but it was our last night in the area. Highly recommend! read more

Get the desert! We were here because we got a gift card to this place. Their food was generally a bit salty. But their desert was spot on! If I come back it will probably be just for the desert lol read more

Great food. Great service. What more can I say? The menu is terrific and the prices are reasonable. read more

I would like to leave zero stars, but that is not permitted. We ordered take out and an item was missing when we got home. My mother returned with the receipt and was accused of lying. She then made another trip back to the house to collect all the food and bring it all back for a refund. She is a 76 year old local who has been living and contributing to this community for decades. Not only is it pathetic to accuse her of lying about a $15 appetizer but its extremely insulting. There are many other businesses to choose from, and I strongly encourage everyone to find a more local friendly place for Italian. These people were rude and insulting to the local , elderly people. read more

I don't want to post this review! Every reader is forbidden from telling ANYONE (lest it become even harder to get a reservation!). By far the best, most authentic fine Italian BYOB eatery at the South Jersey Shore. Whether you are after seafood, steak, pasta, it will be prepared and presented beautifully by excellent, friendly and knowledgeable wait staff that work together as a well oiled machine to deliver every one of their diners a most memorable experience. I had the Sea Bass with crabmeat and capers, it was HUGE and delicious, accompanied by a side of pasta with garlic and oil- astonishing! My wife chose the tortelloni dish which is our server Colleen's favorite, and it was equally excellent. OK, yes, you should definitely reserve weeks before your upcoming week at the shore as it has been discovered, and I must hide my identity for revealing this secret. This message will self -destruct in 60 seconds LOL! read more

This place will always hold a special place in my heart bc my husband and I had our unofficial wedding reception dinner here! They were so lovely and I am so behind in posting how indebted to them we are, but I wanted to make sure the review detailed how amazing this place is. My husband and I planned our wedding very very last minute. At first, we were hell bent on just going to city hall and going to dinner here with our two witnesses and parents. Of course, nothing ever goes as planned and our party of six turned to twelve, to 15... and then eventually 20 (I know, I'm the worst). They never made me feel like we were being annoying after the million phone calls and drop ins explaining how we had to add another person to our reservation. Prior to our wedding, we dropped off a couple of items to personalize our night a little bit. When we arrived at 730, everyone was simply blown away. They cleared out their reservations so they could simply focus on us and it truly felt so special. The decorations, attention to detail, kindness, service, and food were absolutely top notch. They set up a little table with all our wine, pictures, and guestbook and even had a table for our cake. We couldn't have asked for more. Thank you so much to Sunday Gravy and its staff- you truly are one of a kind and we hope to make more memories here in the years to come :) we love you! read more

Sunday Gravy - Had our wedding dinner here and they were absolutely amazing! - Italian Near Me - Linwood, New Jersey

Our first visit to Sunday Gravy has already made it a new favorite in the area -- probably close to the legendary Chef Vola as upscale Italian spots go! Every aspect of our meal was executed perfectly, from the warm, friendly service and surprisingly fast turnaround of dishes to the clearly a la minute preparation of said dishes and how totally delicious they were. For appetizers, the crab bisque is a total standout -- unlike so many cream seafood soups it is chock full of HUGE lump crab pieces and so flavorful, and a very big bowl for just $8. For entrees we shared the Chilean sea bass and the spicy shrimp and crab with linguine. The sea bass, served in a delicate garlicky broth with cherry tomatoes and crab (this place does not skimp on the crab, much to our delight) is one of the best cooked pieces of fish I've had in my life, just....summer on a plate. The spicy shrimp/crab pasta does live up to its name -- it is definitely quite spicy -- with super fresh, perfectly cooked shrimp and linguine. Everything here is really beyond reproach and the prices are among the most reasonable for a spot of this caliber we've found in the area--we can't wait to come back soon! read more

This was the worst experience I've ever had ever and I not a complainer. We sat down at 7:36 the waiter came and introduced him self poured our wine said take your time look at the menus and we will get you some bread . 25 minutes later I had to ask a bus boy for some bread . Our waiter then returned to take our order we ordered a salad first then calamari second then our main courses. At 8:10 our dry Caesar salad came out . At 8;30 I told the waiter to cancel the calamari he said no it's in the crisper . It arrived at 8:35 along with a very " I'm right your wrong " manager who needs to take management classes she said they were going to serve it to us but would take it off the bill . I didn't care about paying for it I thought that an hour and 5 minutes was a little long to wait for something that just gets thrown in the fryer they weren't making a fancy dish . So we tried to eat the calamari you couldn't hardly cut it was over fried so much . When told the waiter to take it away the manager then again came over to give me a piece of her mind because as she demanded there was nothing wrong with their food . I told her she needed to be quiet and go away as she was making the experience worse . I was very kind to the waiter told him he was not in control of the kitchen nor the mouthy manager . As we left I looked over to the waiter and said to him thank you it was a pleasure and as we were almost out the door he returned my remark with YEA SOME PLEASURE then he and the Manager started to laugh at us . THEY NEED TO TAKE A CUSTOMER SERVICE COURSE . What they don't realize is the best advertisement is word of mouth and I will be spreading the word . read more

Zero. After having to cancel reservations twice in the past, which was done in a timely manner as required, we (party of four) were RUDELY actually turned away from this establishment when we showed up for our reservation on the third occasion. No call. No text. No email. We got there in pouring rain and when we went inside, we were told that our reservation "was cancelled" (by THEM) because we had twice cancelled before. Is this what the very concept of sunday gravy is supposed to be about. Shame on them! read more

What a fantastic dining experience! Everything was so good and I can't wait to go back. The pork ragu was fabulous as well as the chicken saltimbocca. My husband raved about the crab bisque and said it was wonderful. The guys had the lobster ravioli and Sunday gravy and loved their meals. The service was impeccable and the restaurant has a cozy vibe. We're definitely going back to celebrate our April birthdays! read more

Sunday Gravy was the perfect setting for my mom's birthday dinner but it would be the perfect setting for any occasion or no occasion at all! I would label the food as upscale Italian and the interior as casually cozy. Make yourself a reservation (trust me) and bring along your favorite bottle of wine-they are BYO. We arrived just a few minutes before our reservation time and were seated quickly. Our waitress was both polite and professional. Despite how busy the restaurant was she was quite prompt with taking our order and getting our salad to the table-which by the way, was the best Caesar salad I've ever had! Don't skip out on a Caesar here. It can easily serve two people and comes perfectly dressed. My favorite part was the tasty parmesan crisps dispersed throughout. As great as all of the food was, the salad was actually my favorite bite of food. Also impressive was the main entree that I indulged in. Multiple options appealed to me but I ultimately landed on the crab pomodoro and I wasn't disappointed. There was ample crab meat in the dish which gave it a hearty feel. The crab was in good company with al dente pasta and fresh sauce. I'd happily order this again. My mom raved about the lobster ravioli as well. Both dishes hit the mark! Dessert was a pleasant end to the evening with a lovely tiramisu and lemon cake. Both were light, creamy, and delicious. I can't wait to return for more Sunday gravy! read more

Cute italian restaurant in Linwood. Chicken parm, stuffed gnocchi, and meatballs were standouts. Service was excellent! Definitely recommend for a night out read more

Pretty busy little BYOB spot in Linwood , mostly Italian food but also steaks if that's your thing. It's BYOB and this place was busy at 5.15pm Friday night. Get the Caesar Salad, very tasty dressing and big enough for 3 to split. Calamari and Shrimp app is tasty too , ask for that sweet n sour sauce on the side to dip. Rolls are warm and crispy . My parents got steaks which they thought were a bit overdone so ask for it rarer than you want it . I got Crab Pomodoro pasta which was ok but I would try fish next time. Tiramisu is fine. Chocolate cake is dense and fudgy. Creme Brulee Cheesecake I would skip. Nothing special but the Tiramisu is good. Get that . Definitely make reservations and bring some wine . Lots of parking right outside. Staff are really nice . Also you have to order sides with the steaks because they don't come with anything. Get the Garlic Mashed Potatoes. read more
