It's been a while , but Vicky and I were curious to see what had changed here at Indici since the recent rebirth The room was always very inviting , warm, and sensual in a way that keeps you captivated, nothing changed here. That we noticed. We sat at the bar with a truly pleasant barkeep named Devon. Great guy. Produced two stunning cocktails ( Awedome Negroni and blood orange Margaritas) He showed us the changes which were mostly operation things but also the new menu. ( I always liked the old menu but this one was also inviting ) He explained that they did away with pizza .. that's fine as I wouldn't think of going here for pizza .. that I'll do at Birravino .. we ordered the tuna appetizer which was delicious and fresh. Served in a chilled broth with Avacado nice dish. Vicky loved it ! I had the eggplant parm app which was also pretty authentic in its simplicity but with a fantastic sauce. I could have stopped there as it was so satisfying but no.. we needed. To try the veal malfadine which was perfectly al dente and the killer pork chop which was hands down one of the most delicious I've had in a while To finish we sampled the bambaloni, a zeppola type dessert which was nicely deep fried .. presented well and tasted great but I had a major guilt thing after eating such a heart attack invitation All told we love it here .. read more

Appetizers: Octopus carpaccio Burrata fritta Crespelle Entrees: Polenta crusted salmon Melanzane Parmigiana It was a lovely evening and perfect way to celebrate my birthday. read more

Always an amazing time. Last night was no different. This is our go to date night place. Last night I ordered the veal Milanese. It was a huge portion but cooked so tenderly. Everything is so fresh. I ordered two Sicilian spritz drinks. Epic. Topped it off with a frangelica after dinner drink. We started with the pear appetizer. Also amazing. The service was so nice. We even had the bitters cart table side experience after the meal. So generous. read more

My wife and I visited Undici around the holidays for a date night and really enjoyed it. We started with the grilled octupus. This is an appetizer that we commonly order and it's safe to say that this is one of the best I've ever had. The octupus was cooked pefectly tender, not rubbery or chewy, with a nice char. For dinner, I had the veal chop with potato croquette and brocolli rabe. The veal was cooked perfectly and was a nice size. If I am enjoying vegetables, that is a good sign which means the brocolli rabe was chock full of flavor. The service was attentive and professional. I am already looking forward to coming back here. read more

Undici Taverna Rustica - Grilled octopus - Italian Near Me - Rumson, New Jersey

I've been in this restaurant over 50 times over 15 years. it was always on pricey side but good food. It's still on pricey side and food is still good but menu is different and these days you get overpriced pasta pretty much. In addition their wine pour is 3oz Per glass. That's 8.4 glasses per bottle. it's always crowded and all interior finishes are hard therefore very noisy. For me personally this place is so so with better alternatives around, especially since they changed their menu. read more

Food is always excellent and we love the atmosphere. Service is very good. Our favorite is the bolognese sauce is our absolute favorite dish. read more

Way over rated, two of four entres were terrible and one came out cold..................

Undici is one of my favorite restaurants I was very concerned when they were remodeling that it was going to change the atmosphere there but it's just as warm and inviting as it was before maybe even a little more. The staff was wonderful. The food was delicious. The cocktails were amazing and I can't wait to go back. read more

Food was incredible and service was impeccable. We had the grilled octopus, mozzarella, rigatoni, branzino and mission fig gelato. We also had Aperol spritz and a bottle of white wine that came recommended from our amazing server, Joe. It is rare that we get a night out with two young boys at home, and I am so grateful we got to come here for our date night! Can't wait to come back again! Thanks for everything! :) read more

We have dined at Undici many times over the years. This was our first time back since the renovations and menu update- still a 10/10! Their staff is top notch and the food is incredible. Looking forward to our next night out! read more

The food, service and ambiance is perfect. You won't be disappointed. Go and have a night out, you deserve it. read more

Undici is a solid spot. Pizza is very good. The vongole was excellent. The polpo was good but the guac on the dish was a bit out of place. The bucatini had flavor but sauce was dry. The branzino served table side was not necessary. Most prices are aligned with expectations but $15 desserts was definitely overpriced for what it was. Otherwise, very good. read more

The restaurant was absolutely beautiful. Cozy, dark, romantic. The food was all delicious. From appetizers to dessert, everything was made perfectly. Rabbit special was to die for, like you were eating in Italy. Pear salad, clams, burrata. Best thing i tasted was the steak, cooked to perfection with the most incredible sautéed onions. Dessert we all had a nice mix, from walnut cake (amazing) pistachio biscotti, cheesecake all yummm!!! Franglico coffee was also one for the books! Our waitress was very nice, polite, knowledgeable of the menu. She knew what wine would pair well with entrees. I would highly recommend this restaurant to all friends and family. Can't wait to go back read more

Superb restaurant! A must on all levels! Delicious wines and abundant choices - a diverse menu!

Not good. Wine (barbera ) was awful. Even after sending for a new glass. Overcooked veal special. Rabbit forgettable. Risotto bland. Gelato desert was only thing ok. Very disappointing read more

The atmosphere is amazing. The waitresses and waiters are excellent. The food is exceptional. The bartenders are so professional and personable. It was a great experience. I highly recommend. read more

We had the pure pleasure of dining at Undici last evening. The interior is beautiful, warm and inviting. The food was exceptional. We shared everything, starting with the Cacio Pepe salad and the Octopus. The salad was very good, the octopus outstanding, tender and flavorful. For our mains, we enjoyed the Malfadini Bolognese and the rabbit with creamy risotto, which were also outstanding. All the portions were generous. My cocktail, the Martini Genovese, was incredibly delicious. Our evening was made even more enjoyable by our wonderful server, Mary. She was friendly and engaging, and discreetly attentive to our every need. Bravo to the front of house, kitchen, and above all waitstaff. We will definitely be returning to this most enjoyable establishment. read more

Limited menu, food was just ok, wine was just ok. Cool atmosphere and good service. Other better spots in the area

The food choices were very limited expensive and the taste was the most disgusting food you will everl place in your mouth. How this place survives is amazing. My wife had a glass of what they called wine,carefully pour from s measuring cup to ensure you get a mouthful of vinegar for $16 dollars. The bread is served by a couple of slices at a time. You feel like you are in a bread line. No bread basket. Asked for Chicken scarpariello and got a corniche hen cut in half and the chicken was tough and no flavor after spending $320 for three people for a terrible experience, will never eat here again and will never recommend this place to anyone. I give Undici a well deserved zero rating. read more

A strong 3 stars. Nothing bad, nothing great. My favorite moment? Sitting by the warm fire in the waiting area. For such a large menu, it felt limited from the wine options to pasta. The one slice of bread was surprisingly, disappointed but again, limited. I'd recommend the gnocchi but that's about it. read more

We had reservations for Monday night at six and had a choice of tables and servers. Love the atmosphere and love that a lot of greenery outside the window so we didn't see any traffic. it's very atmospheric. But the crowning touch was the food! we had Osso Bucco, eggplant Parm, and the tuna special. Everything was delicious. When we ordered red sangria, the wine steward came and made it right at the table. The fruit was all well mashed in the pitcher and she proceeded to pour a whole bottle of wine in. It was the best sangria! Fantastic! A great dining experience. We will go back. read more

We had a nice meal here with some friends ahead of the holidays. I know where we are and all, Rumson, but these restaurant prices are getting a bit out of hand, hence only about 3.5 stars in my book. Service was great, our waiter was very attentive and we got a table right in front by the fireplace which was nice. The ambiance is definitely 5 stars for winter time. I got the pork chop. It was good, but not anything to rave about for $40. I liked the veggies on the dish as well. We also got the stuffed chicken which was delicious, the side potatoes were very flavorful. I didn't taste any of the other food, but everyone was satisfied. Our full order was: 3 glasses of wine, a whisky, 2 beers and then 2 entrees and 3 pasta dishes. It came out to be $65/person or $325. I just found that to be pretty pricey for the equivalent of a meal and a drink per person but at least the food and service are high quality. read more

Errors that could be avoided. Cold corn appetizer--ruined one of our favorite dishes. Undecooked, pink pork chop--unsafe risk of cysticercosis. Flies buzzing around. EXPENSIVE for such a crap experience. Flies? Health department inspectors should swing by! read more

It was such a pretty restaurant. Although we loved the ambiance i have to say the lighting could have been just a little bit brighter. I ordered the gnocchi and it was delicious. For dessert i had the biscotti with a cappuccino It was scrumptious. I really enjoyed our dining experience and look forward to going back. Our waitress was very nice and efficient. We didn't wait ling to order or for the food to be served. read more

Second time at this restaurant and the pasta entrées are delicious - the rigatoni with sausage had amazing flavor and the gnocchi with beef was perfect! It was nice when the management came around to check on us too. read more

We finally made it to Undici - the service is top notch from the Hostess, to the Bartenders to the service. Attentive and do not rush you. The food was good, not in my top ten. And once again a New Jersey Restaurant pricing as if it was Manhattan. Will give it another shot. read more

Went to this place with my boyfriend on our way back home after the beach when we were craving Italian food. We arrived at around 4:45 and were seated quickly, in a nice table outside in the back. We ordered the Originale pizza, the Bucatini Amatriciana, and the Fettuccine al Pesto. The pizza arrived first and was beautiful and so delicious, particularly the sauce and the crust. The pastas arrived around 20 minutes later. The Amatriciana I ordered was buttery and flavorful and my boyfriend thoroughly enjoyed his pesto pasta. The wait service was kind and attentive and we had a great experience overall!! Would definitely come back if I'm ever down in Sandy Hook again. Also, just to add, we came at the perfect time, right before the dinner rush. As we were leaving, around 6pm, the restaurant was quickly getting crowded. So I guess if you're looking to avoid the dinner crowds during the week, maybe come around 5pm! read more

Went to Undici last night and was looking forward to having a great meal. Had been there before COVID and the meal was excellent. However, last night was a disappointment. Ordered the Grilled Octopus and for the price, the portion was beyond skimpy. Order the Mafaldine Bolognese and it came out warm - cold. The only bright side is that the staff was friendly and the glass of wine was decent. Not sure I would go back. read more

This place is fantastic! The interior is nice with a huge bar in the middle. The patio area is nice with nice log looking tables. The servers are attentive and knowledgeable of the menu. However, at 5pm on a Saturday they ran out of some menu items and wine. Nonetheless, the food was delectable! The gnocchi and ravioli were tasty! I would 100% come here again! Plus, Rumson is a great area. Who doesn't like dining with the rich? read more

They're watering down their drinks and at $20 a pop it feels insulting and innapropriate especially considering the area.

I was able to make a reservation at Undici for the same evening and specifically on the beautiful outdoor patio. Upon arrival, I was amazed at the attention to detail both inside and outside the restaurant. It was classy yet casual, making it easy to enjoy a delicious meal. Our service was fantastic. The servers were all extremely friendly and helpful and brightened our day. On my way out, I stopped by the restroom which was impressively tidy and aesthetic. Bravo Undici! read more

Been to Undici many many times..live a mile away . Have to say don't go much..vic the whole beautiful moment has faded . Service was ok and food not great. Had the duck special ..nothing special. Sad . Very let down wasn't anything . Better places for way less. I know why we stopped going to Undiici. read more

I really really like this place! First time we went food was really good, but ac was broke & it was not a great overall experience. Last night it was fabulous! The food was divine & the atmosphere & temperature were perfect. All my food was fresh, tasty & delicious! The Frose was fantastic. The waiter was nice. I am so happy we went back to give it another try. It might be one of my favorites & I can't wait to celebrate by going back 11 more times in the next couple of months. My only ask is they make a smaller version of the cold antipasto platter, as if there are only a couple people at dinner that want it, it's close to impossible y on finish. read more

We dined in one of the outdoor "igloos" for covid social distancing and the setup was great; They had some portable electric heaters. The food was delicious and the service very attentive. The cost is on the expensive side but justified by the quality of the food, service, and choices of rare bourbons. read more
