    Chicken Parmigiana

    All the food we ordered were delicious and perfectly cooked. We ordered Linguine and clams sauce, shrimp scampi with linguine, and chicken parmigiana. They are were nice portions. Service was quick!

    High end Italian restaurant. Beautiful interior and excellent service. Indoor and outdoor seating. Enjoyed appetizers of clams Oreganto and burata . Enjoyed my entree of shrimp and scallops over fettuccine.

    Vincenzo's is a family favorite for get-togethers (birthdays, repasses) as well as casual dinners and take-out. My Aunt lives really close to them and she goes consistently. They have always been very welcoming to us for all of our events and casual meals. I am a fan of the Pollo Francese and their Penne Ala Vodka is always a solid simple choice. Inevitably someone at the table also gets the Vitello Danielle or Veal Marsala.

    I came here for dinner with a friend who treated me. We were immediately greeted by a friendly waiter and host. All the tables have white linens on them. They have a small bar near the entrance. Once seated my server Fernando came right over. He was very pleasant, had a great sense of humor, and made really good suggestions. The service we received was excellent. We started with a a bottle of SAUVIGNON BLANC. On the table was complimentary bruschetta. We then ordered two appetizers- the first was CLAMS OREGANATA - one dozen baked and served in a garlic sauce. They were sweet and delicious. The next appetizer ordered was a Special on their menu, STUFFED ARTICHOKE - it was one of the best stuffed artichokes I've ever had. I loved that they added sautéed pancetta in it. Next was a complimentary HOUSE SALAD. I added a lot of freshly grated cheese. It too was simple and good. For my entree I ordered another Special on the menu. VEAL CHOP- it was cooked perfectly and came topped with sautéed onions and mushrooms and added cherry peppers. For my sides were roasted potatoes, broccoli, carrots and zucchini. It was really delicious. My friend ordered their GROUPER OREGANATA- the grouper was delicate and the garlic bread crumbs on top added so much flavor. She also got broccoli, carrots, and zucchini for sides. Just when I couldn't eat another bite, out came a dessert tray. There was amazing assortment of all different kinds of desserts. I chose two different ones to share. The first was PISTACHIO CAKE- it was light and flavorful served with sliced strawberries and whipped cream. The second dessert was CHOCOLATE BANANA CAKE- chocolate layer on the top with a sweet banana filling. It was devine. We finished off our dinner with CAPPUCCINO. This restaurant is definitely a must. I would recommend it for a date, a special occasion or if you want a really good meal. I will definitely be returning.

    Lamb Shank over Risotto
    Carl H.

    Always a great meal and the best of service at Vincenzos. Last minute birthday party for 12 and the service and food were incredible. Their lamb shank special over risotto was tender and rich in flavor. The risotto so creamy. Too busy enjoying the night to snap photos of the rest of the food but everything was perfect!

    Homemade gnocchi with mushroom and cheese ravioli with meat sauce
    Anna D.

    3.5 rounded up to 4 for good service. I've been searching for solid homemade pasta in Central Jersey and came here this past Saturday for dinner. It was packed with families and groups of friends and some couples too. They have an outdoor area overlooking the parking lot and road and an indoor dining area. We were give bruschetta and bread to start and the bruschetta was tasty but a bit soggy and mine fell apart immediately when I picked it up. We got glasses of house wine which was good and the broccoli rabe with sausage to start which was heavy on the oil but tasty. The homemade cheese ravioli with meat sauce was good but lacking flavor - would've loved an extra hit of garlic or herbs. The gnocchi was great texture but the sauce was a miss for me - too acidic for mushrooms and pancetta and neither of us liked it. With a bill over 100 bucks I wasn't too impressed but maybe we didn't order the best dishes.

    Con Frutti di Mari
    Catina S.

    NYE dinner reservations with my love was perfect quaint intimate atmosphere. Waiter was attentive & informed us of all entrees.. we started off with clams oreganato & scallops wrapped in bacon. Deliciouso scrumptious .. we had tequila casa Migos with fresh lime juice... so refreshing. For my entree I got Con Frutti di Mari , lobster, clams, shrimp on fettuccine noodles with a tomato base sauce the waiter asks your spice level so no need to add Anything to this dish it was outstanding ! Will definitely be back again !

    Came to El Forno Legna and had such a great experience. The rigatoni bolognese was perfectly…read morebalanced--bold flavor, smooth texture, and that cream tomato sauce was seriously exquisite. One of those dishes you don't want to end. The margherita pizza was just as impressive. The fresh tomatoes were so fragrant and flavorful, it added a whole other level to the pie. We also tried the Tommy Boy, which was --the creamy pesto, breaded chicken, and subtle red pepper kick worked beautifully together. On top of all that, the service was top-notch, the atmosphere was great, and everything felt relaxed and welcoming. We truly enjoyed our meal and cleaned every plate. Highly recommend if you're looking for amazing food and a great vibe.

    Me and my wife went here to meet up with a coworker of mine. My coworker was nice enough to treat…read moredinner for us that night. She recommended eating here. When we walked in, we were seated right away. All the staff was very friendly and very professional. It was very clean inside too, and I could tell they take good care of it. Our food came out in a timely manner and everything was delicious and made fresh. Our chicken was cooked just right and had the perfect amount of crisp to the breading. The appetizers were very good too with the cheesy bread and the wings we ordered. This is a great Italian place, if you're ever in Dunellen, definitely check this place out. It's right near the municipality for the town so it's easy to find. You won't be disappointed when you come here.
