Villa Rosa is one of those places that just makes you feel at home. I’ll never forget the first time stepping inside and being greeted with a big smile—and all the Yankee memorabilia instantly took me back to my childhood. As for the food, the pizza is absolutely amazing. My go-to orders are the Alfredo chicken and broccoli and the meatball parm—both cooked to perfection every time. Love this place and always look forward to coming back!

My husband and I enjoyed there Valentine’s special I had the prim rib that melted in my mouth and was so good the best. My husband had the stuffed flounder with crabmeat and he loved it. Every thing else was so good as well. I had a great Valentine’s dinner thank you !

Sauce had a lot of oregano …. some loved it While others thought it was too strong. The staff was great kept our water glasses filled and even brought extra wonderful bread, but we did not order pizza but entrees instead and some of them were not up to some diners standards. Based on how crowded it was though it seems a very good local favorite and we shouldn’t bring picky people there

Extremely disappointed. Asked to have the meatballs broken down with the fork so you can eat the sandwich. Still big chucks. Pick up the sandwich and it fell apart. The sauce is way too spicy. Will not go back again.

Villa Rosa Restaurant in Hawthorne, NJ, has become our go-to spot.
The customer service consistently exceeds expectations, and the food never fails to impress. Their pizza is consistently amazing, delivering deliciousness in every slice. It’s a place we always look forward to returning to for a fantastic dining experience.

One of the best pizzas in town. But their grandma pizza, the best, end of story. I moved to Pennsylvania and I’m pissed at what they’re passing off for grandma pizza here. When I visit, their grandma pizza is a must get.

Not only one of best pizzas in the area, but quality food served in the restaurant. We shared best manicotti we’ve eaten and their flounder Italiana, a large filet with their special blend of seasonings. One of best fish dishes we’ve eaten. So good that people would pay $38 for it in a white tablecloth restaurant as opposed to the $23 here. Loretta was friendly and provided excellent service. Bobby, the owner/chef has created a winning formula of food and ambiance and is a friendly, outgoing ,service-oriented person

This has been our local “joint” for years. Classic pizza parlor with a restaurant attached. BYOB, and the food is consistently excellent. Pictured in this post is Chicken francese, ok yes you can get it everywhere, but theirs is a cut above. The second dish is Veal Sorentino, off menu but excellent. Dinner for 2, with dessert is $55-60 and you bring home a second meal!

Incredible service! Felt extremely welcomed and appreciated by the staff when dining here. The food was fantastic. The chicken francese was very tender and flavorful. The penne alla vodka was delicious. The eggplant rollatini was super yummy, especially the cheese. The garlic bread was perfect. I loved my food and I’m looking forward to returning with friends. I was helped by three different staff members and the service from all 3 of them was outstanding, very polite, punctual, and kind. The atmosphere is a classic NJ Italian American restaurant. I would definitely recommend this place.
