"The best Italian restaurant in Raritan. Food was excellent. The steak, the pasta, the sauce, everything was flawless. They gave huge portion and complimentary salad and bread. Everyone left with big boxes of leftover food. The only headache is parking. They don’t have their own parking lot. We usually do street parking and walk over. The place is small with a bar. So it can get crowded and loud for dinner time. Service: Dine in Meal type: Dinner Price per person: $50–100 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 4"

I have been coming here forever and never lived near the place It's great basic red sauce Italian food located on a back street in central NJ. Never had a bad meal here. Street parking can be an issue but otherwise nothing not to like. Food: 5 Service: 4 Atmosphere: 4 View menu

Exceptional traditional Italian cuisine. I really enjoyed the pork chop Murphy. Without a doubt, this is my top choice for the best Italian food in Central Jersey. Just be sure to arrive early since they don't take reservations. Also, the cheesesteak parm outshines anything you'll find in Philly.

This place is absolutely fantastic! I traveled from Texas to visit friends, and every single one of them recommended it. It's the best Italian food we've ever had. We absolutely plan to return on our next visit. The atmosphere, food, and service were all incredible. For our dinner, we spent over $100 per person. I would rate the food, service, and atmosphere all a perfect 5! View menu

Whether it's the Steak Parm, the pasta dishes, the daily specials, or the garlic shrimp, everything here is delicious. The atmosphere is warm, and the service is friendly. I used to work nearby and often made this a go-to spot. The new owners have successfully maintained the tradition, and the food remains top-notch. You definitely won't be disappointed. That’s enough from me—go and enjoy!
