"It was very easy to make a reservation and I was impressed with that. We arrived at the restaurant and we waited for about eight minutes for someone to even acknowledge us. When someone did, I was approached as pointed finger ant me and asked , carry out? I said no. Table for two, reservation. The guy then said she’ll be right with you. we were seated in a very small table in the corner and I asked to be moved and she took us to a small table in the bar which I asked again to be in a little bit bigger table and she allowed us to sit there. we ordered our drink. It was fair , then we ordered our food and we waited almost an hour to get our food. When it arrived, the chicken Parmesan the Chicken was burnt. My crabcake was very dark. I wouldn’t say burnt but almost there the garlic in the spinach and I believe carrots was horrible. It just reeked of garlic. Our waitress did not come back and check on us until I asked her for a water. Before we got our food, she walked by me three times and made eye contact and never gave me an answer as to where our food was. I was very disappointed that it was not that busy. the dining room was full, but the bar area had very few people in it maybe six at the bar and maybe a total of 10 sitting around the bar. This was our first experience here and I can tell you we probably won’t be back. I had to go to the hostess station and ask for a carry out box."

"The cheese pizza I had was quite filling, but that’s where the positives end. The cheese had a rubbery texture, the sauce was insufficient and bland, and the dough was chewy, lacking both flavor and proper cooking. Overall, the pizza reminded me of the kind I endured in school, which I was eager to forget—definitely not a good sign. While pizza is generally an affordable meal option, these plain slices were over $3.50 each! For something so basic and unappealing, that's outrageous. There are countless places in and around NYC that offer much better pizza at lower prices. It's shocking how expensive this disappointing pizza is, especially given how many tourists and locals the restaurant attracts. The price for a whole pizza is somewhat reasonable, at least. Unfortunately, the worst part came shortly after finishing the pizza—I experienced a severe stomachache that felt like intense menstrual cramps for hours. I completely lost my appetite for dinner and only managed to eat some fruit, which was uncomfortable to do. It’s worth noting that I hadn’t eaten anything else beforehand, so the pizza was definitely the culprit. Who knows, maybe there was actual rubber or plastic in that cheese? I wouldn’t be shocked. The pizza on display also looked dry, overly thin, and of poor quality. Additionally, I’ve ordered from here before, and I can confirm that you cannot microwave this pizza. It cools down rapidly, so if you order more than one slice, reheating is almost a necessity. However, when you do, the pizza becomes even tougher and chewier (and tasteless) than before. Trust me, do NOT microwave this pizza. I’ve tried it and regretted ordering pizza entirely. I wouldn’t have bothered writing a review if it weren't for the stomachache—it truly was the last straw. This place will definitely be my last choice for takeout on the island from now on."

"This was our first time at Piccola Italia. We LOVED it! Upon arriving we am sat at the bar and was greeted by Mike, the bartender. He was very friendly and immediately served us. Our Manhattan and Pinot noir was very good. When the rest of our party arrived, we sat at a square table (we were 7) and from the appys to our main entrees (porterhouse steak that fed three men, and lump crab with a bucatini type pasta), everything was so delicious. Ryan was our server and he couldn't be more accommodating and friendly. Dessert didn't disappoint warm apple crumble cake, bread pudding and sea salt caramel gelato!! And to top off our night, the chef came to our table when we were done and gave us some grappa on the house. We will definitely return!!"

"We made a reservation and arrived on time, but no one acknowledged us. Finally, the manager looked at us and asked if we were waiting for a table. After waiting for 20 more minutes and at least six different staff members passing by us, we decided to leave. We never had the opportunity to taste the food, and we would not return due to the poor experience."

"This restaurant is amazing! Adrian, the owner, is such a delight so attentive, professional, and generous! Francisco, the chef, deserves many awards. We also love Josh, one of the servers. So sweet and kind. The four of us ordered the meatball appetizer One of the best I’ve ever had, the Pork Giambotto, Chicken Jimmy, Linguine and Clams, and Branzino. And we ordered a few desserts, which were absolutely delicious! I’ve been here many times and the food is superb. Always busy with happy customers! Don’t miss this place if you are ever in the area."

"Nice seating area inside and outside of the restaurant. They offer a large variety of basic pizzeria items. I ordered grilled chicken salad. The salad was fresh, but the chicken was super dry. More like bread crumbs. Very courteous counter clerk/server. They do seem like having the equipment to bake nice Neapolitan pizza. Not sure why they don't? About 25% expensive."

"Oh my. Frank's Trattoria is a wonderful hidden gem located in the Richlandtown/Quakertown area off of 309. How delicious! The restaurant was nicely decorated, super clean, byob and our server Liz was beyond sweet. Now as for the food... it ranks as one of my best privately owned Italian venues and I visit many. The seafood and pasta dish was outstanding along with freshly made garlic knots, beautifully plated salad, and a complimentary glass of wine. All under $20. They also serve pizza, steak sandwiches, etc. Abd deliver. I shall return!"

"The service we received at this restaurant was very friendly and attentive. We chose to split the antipasti for one, which was simple with only cold cuts and two slices of provolone, but it lacked dressing. My companion ordered the lasagne, which was a good size and delicious, although he was informed that it was meatless when it wasn't. I decided on the Veal Marsala with mushrooms, which was tasty and had tender veal (something rare in most restaurants). The portions were generous and reasonably priced. Despite not being in my neighborhood, I would probably come back again."

"The restaurant was packed on a Saturday night with happy diners just like precovid days. Yet the service did not stumble the food was delicious and dining experience was well paced, comfortable and attentive. I dislike writing reviews for restaurants I favor but for Piccola deserves the positive mention. Good food, terrific service and delightful dining earns kudos from me!"

"The margarita pizza. This pizza was so good and fresh, and a pretty big slice! I enjoyed it very much and it was my first time here. I am from Brooklyn and this pizza was delicious! I will be back here for more food as my appointments are nearby! Such a great find and the vibe is so great. The service was top notch as well!"

"Molly's restaurant offers an exceptional dining experience with excellent service and reasonable prices. The home-cooked meals, especially the ribs, are a true delight – they fall right off the bone and boast an amazing flavor. A must-visit for those seeking a combination of great atmosphere and delicious food!"

"was really disappointed with my recent experience at DePaul's Table. The food was overpriced, the portions were small, the cooking was amateurish, and the service was hopeless. I started off with the roasted beet salad, which was overpriced and underwhelming. The beets were dry and tasteless, and the goat cheese was bland and unseasoned. For my main course, I ordered the grilled salmon, which was also a disappointment. The salmon was overcooked and dry, and the vegetables were undercooked and mushy. The service was also terrible. Our waiter was inattentive and never came to check on us. When we finally flagged him down, he took forever to bring our food. We also had to ask him multiple times for water and utensils. I would not recommend DePaul's Table to anyone. The food is overpriced, the portions are small, the cooking is amateurish, and the service is hopeless. If you're looking for a good dining experience, I suggest you go somewhere else. Specific details: Food: The food was overpriced, the portions were small, and the cooking was amateurish. Service: The service was hopeless. Our waiter was inattentive and never came to check on us. Atmosphere: The atmosphere was unremarkable. The restaurant is small and crowded, and the noise level is high. Overall rating: 1 out of 5 stars"

"This place was a real find. The decor is warm and inviting, like being part of a family. The food was a distinct cut above the usual North Jersey Italian fare, and the portions were generous. The wait staff couldn't have been nicer. We're definitely going back--and bringing friends."

"A huge thanks to the staff at Portofino's. Was in Morristown for the Verizon Corporate Classic and was one of the parents overlooking a bunch teenagers who volunteered. At the conclusion of the race, our group pretty much took over their outdoor seating area to treat the kids with some pizza. Having been to events were large amounts of pizza are are served, I know it could be hit or miss when it comes to tasty pizza with freshness being not east to manage. I must say, they knocked it out of the park with fresh pizza that was warm and tasty. After a busy night, I can only imagine the last thing the staff wanted was a large group invading their dinning room when they were so close to going home. Despite our group size and pizza only order, thr staff was awesome. The outdoor dinning area was perfect atmosphere for our group. Did not explore their menu any further but would definitely return for a nice outdoor patio experience bringing my favorite bottle (quick disclaimer- pretty sure it's byob"

"I do not recommend this restaurant. The food tasted like it had been stored for a long time. I visited on Sunday, March 10, 2024, and I must say the service was extremely poor, leading to a very unpleasant experience. It was obvious that the waitress had to step in to help in the kitchen while the waiter was absent, which left much to be desired. Overall, it was a terrible experience, and even now, I still have an upset stomach and am taking medication as a result."

"I am not from the area and have stopped looking for a search in Google maps for restaurants in the area. I bought 3 slices of pizza with extra cheese, sausage and pepperoni. I was hungry, so I ate her in the car. The slices were great. The size of the slices was good. The cheese was good. The sausage was real. The slices were so good that I went back to the restaurant to buy a little cake. Lol. I'm sure if the owners read this, they'll know who I am. Anyway, the food was worth the praise. I don't have any pictures because I have received the request for this review on the following day, and... the pizzas have gone sadly."

"Great Italian restaurant. Everything I had was excellent. Rolls and olive oil for dipping were outstanding. The olive oil had garlic and basil in it. We had an assortment of appetizers including eggplant rolatini, bruschetta and calamari. The calamari was outstanding, very fresh with actual flavor and a light crisp crust. The caesar salad was great. I had fruitti de mare which actually comes with a choice of marinara, fra diablo or garlic wine sauce. All the seafood was very fresh. Portions are large, we took a lot home. Service was outstanding. Our waitress has worked there for five years. She was a lot of fun. Great experience overall and every bit as good or better than the other Italian restaurants we have been to. And if you’re still hungry when you leave it is right next to Karl’s sausage store."

"We have been to Fratellos twice in the last 2 months. Service was good , food was average. I ordered the same meal both times and the second time it had probably half the amount of eggplant on it. While it can be a great local establishment, at this point the facility could definitely use some updating. Its dark and dingy and could be so much better."

"Excellent service and fantastic food! I took my cousins who were visiting from out of town on a city tour and chose to treat them to some Italian cuisine at Carmine's. Our waitress Amanda was incredibly helpful, patient, and friendly throughout our experience. The calamari was delicious, and the pasta dishes were simply to die for. I highly recommend dining here!"
