I stopped into this restaurant for dinner! When I arrived I parked in their lot. I walked into a super cute BYOB restaurant! I was served by Shannon and she was great! I ordered:
Cozze Marinara (Spicy mussels)
Polpette al Sugo (Meatballs)
Ruota di Focaccia Barese
Gamberi Classici (Shrimp scampi linguini)
Pollo alla Barese (Grilled chicken)
The food was delicious but the meatballs were my favorite! This place was great all in all!

Home made foccacia started out the meal the right way! My friend and I were so impressed we decided to share a few pasta dishes!
Cacio e Pepe of our dreams, made in a bowl with extra love! Eggplant parm was an unconventional choice but the best one wow! Cheesy and extra saucy just delicious.
Finally we had the chicken Francese wow, sage to say we will be back

Owners from Italy and extremely friendly. Ambiance beautiful, there specialty sandwich is INSANE DELICIOUS, their dipping oil imported from Italy. Homemade pastas. Catering for Christmas from here this year, beyond thrilled I won’t have to cook. They made it super easy to order. So happy we have a wonderful place like this in our area and wish them so much success! BYOB how much more could you ask for. MANGIA!

Amazing Italian restaurant! The atmosphere is so nice and cozy. The hostess was super nice and our waitress was very friendly! Started off with the white focaccia and it was amazing! You could tell it’s made fresh and they use high quality ingredients, like the olive oil! Then we split a diavola pizza and that was so yummy! We were too full for dessert but next time I want to try some pasta and a tiramisu! The service was quick and friendly and the food was so good! BYOB. Highly recommend!

A staple that Franklin needed! Everything is so fresh and delicious. We’ve been here a few times and they are very accommodating with gluten free foods!

My waitress Gina was warm, friendly and thorough. She asked all of the right questions, if I’d like bread (it’s a fair question since some people don’t eat it, so it would be wasted) it’s better to be asked)). She offered many different options and accompaniments to make my experience great.
The food was delicious! Flavorful, fresh and delicious. Clearly everything is made with care and focus.
No matter what you order you MUST finish your meal with the Limoncello Truffle Semifreddo, it’s define! I didn’t get a picture of the dessert because I ate it WAY TOO QUICKLY.

Excellent First Experience!
We were pleasantly surprised by the outstanding Italian cuisine! The food was hands-down the best in the area, and we can’t wait to return.
Highlights:
The rice ball special appetizer was a hit!
The ravioli special for dinner was delicious.
We’ll be back soon!

First time trying. The lady on the phone was very nice, I ordered 4 pizzas and walked in they greeted me and the chef even thanked me from the oven area. Very pleasant transaction. Pizza was excellent, cooked to perfection, no burnt underneath, which I hate!
I am a fan of white pie and theirs with ricotta was perfect! I’ll be back to have a sit down meal. Thank you all and best of luck , keep crushing it! I would say easy top 5 pizza places for me in north jersey.
Update : was back for sit down dinner , 10 guests for my moms birthday, waitress an staff was phenomenal. They were on top of us and food was delicious and piping hot. This is one of my favorites around north jersey.
Thank you all so much
Buon Appetito
