A few small things if I were to nitpick: I would say that I wished the egg on the farmhouse pizza had been cooked more soft… I was hoping the yoke would spill out, but it was closer to hard-boiled. The arugula on the pizza was overpowering, and I think smaller leaves might be preferable. I would have liked to be able to see the Prosciutto (and other ingredients) but I assume it may have been hidden under the arugula. As for the brisket, it was very tender and well seasoned. I really liked the roasted potatoes, but I didn’t think the squash/zuchini slices (roasted veggies) were necessarily a good pair with the brisket. The server had offered roasted broccoli as an alternative, and I think that probably would have been a better option.
Other than my nitpicks, it was overall a great experience and we will definitely be back.
Family was in town and we always love finding new places to eat. Del Fuoco came up and I made a reservation for 5 people on a Saturday.
Parking was rough but that is no knock to the restaurant… Clifton is just a mess sometimes.
We arrived on time at 630. I was surprised how cozy it was as their website seems a bit dated and I was expecting dated inside but it wasn’t at all. Their decor was based on pictures of Europe through projectors on the wall with rotating images. I thought it was kind of cool.
David our server gave honestly some of the best service I have seen. I mean he was on it. I appreciated him establishing expectations for the flow of service from the jump. That is usually something that is missed but not by David. We loved he only called my mother the birthday girl. I was a bit surprised there wasn’t a birthday dessert offered as David did make a point of acknowledging her birthday often. No shade at David. He was amazing.
Food was pretty solid, came out very quickly which scared me at first, meatballs could have been a bit warmer but they weren’t cold. One person in our party had the recommended lasagna and was a fan. The pizza I got was obviously wood fired which I liked. The bottom could have been a little thicker as the sauce made it a little soggy. Very fresh ingredients though.
At the end of the day there are a few kinks to work out but for only being open a short time I was a big fan. They just got their liquor license which I’m sure will help them.
You should definitely go to this place for a pizza and acqua fresca. Ask for David
Thank you Del Fuoco for the memorable experience
Highly recommend!
Rachel was fantastic and made the whole experience even better with her attentive and friendly service. Lisa behind the bar was just as great.. the drinks were perfect and she brings a really fun, welcoming vibe to the place.
Great food, great drinks, and great people. Definitely recommend checking out Dal Fuoco!
Always give grace to new places as they are still working the system and the staff is still training!
However, the staff were very gracious and accommodating, and relocated us to a quieter part of the restaurant without embarrassment. 10/10
Next, the food was delicious.
I had the Pasta Bolognese, a dish I know well, and their take on it was excellent right down to the noodles, that were buttery and light. 8.5/10
My date chose the Eggplant Parmigiana, and relayed that the taste was excellent, but she felt it wasn’t quite as substantial as she might have wished. 7/10
Desert was a decision between the Chocolate Ganache Cake and the Limoncello Mascarpone Layer Cake.
We chose the latter, and that was a great decision!
In the words of my guest, “That was the best lemon cake I think I’ve ever had”, and they agreed when I joked with them by saying “That lemon cake showed me just how good a lemon cake can be!” 10/10
The staff was wonderful.
From the gentleman at the door, to our server, and the manager of the restaurant, everyone was kind, considerate, and welcoming. 10/10
I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Del Fuoco’s to our friends, and I’m glad to do the same for you.
