One of my favorite places to eat. Their artisan pizza is the best in the city. Our favorites are the Mushroom as well as the sausage. We have also tried some of their pastas and they have all been great. The staff is friendly and kind. Other than the bar seating, unfortunately the table service is a bit slow. Paid street parking as well as garage parking available.

I came down to Princeton to see the Christmas Tree and walk around. I saw this place and decided to try to pizza. I have to say I was so happy with this pizza. The dough was so delicious, the toppings were perfect. I’ve been making pizza my entire life basically and it’s always great to find a awesome pizza Resturant. Our waiter I wish I got his name so I could complement him in this review was so welcoming, he even went and asked the chef for me about the fermentation process of the dough. 10/10 I would stop by again.

We were visiting Princeton university. Looking for a quick bite n found this place for pizza. The place looked great. There is an outdoor seating area too. It was busy n full of people. We were seated immediately. We wanted to have something real quick cz we were falling behind our schedule. Ordered wild mushroom pizza. It was so delicious and made with fresh ingredients. The sauce they served with the pizza was flavorful. Though the service we got was disappointing but the food experience was great.

There was a long wait so we put our name in and went to another bar for drink. Didn’t mind that but when they texted us that our table was ready they weren’t prepared when we showed back up to the restaurant. We waited outside and after 10-15 minutes decided to check again and realized they had forgot about us. Sat down and put in our food and drinks pretty quickly. Great espresso martini. However our server forgot to bring our bread and did not apologize for the oversight. Also we mentioned we were splitting food and share plates weren’t brought until about 5-8 minutes until after our food was brought over. Also sat with empty water glasses for quite some time. They did not have a vegetarian pasta option on the menu and asked the server what dish would be best without meat. What we got may have been one of the worst pastas I’ve ever had (the balsamic). I’m all fairness, my cousin loves this dish with the chicken. I think the main miss is they don’t have a vegetarian pasta option on the menu. Also on the specials they labeled the salmon as vegetarian. Pizza was quite good. All in all a very mediocre dining experience

Teresa’s really fell off.
The food used to bring comfort and warmth to your tastebuds; mixed in with their cozy ambiance… this place was the perfect place for a cute date with friends or a loved one. Ambience and friendly staff are still present, but the food is truly lacking. It feels reheated at best and none of the flavors blend together, they just coexist.
I got the penne pecorino today and it was so bland and wet. The scallops and the shrimp tasted like they were just thawed and thrown in last minute without a chance to soak in any of the wine sauce (which was also bland and watered down from their wet tomatoes which weren’t sautéed long enough ). The roasted garlic is an insult to my mouth.
We also got the tagliatelle … which might as well be Chef Boyardee, but in this case I would have much rather eaten Chef Boyardee.
Everything tasted really bland, wet, lukewarm, and just overall sad. I will not be returning to Teresa’s anymore, it was a good run~

Food was very good and the coffee was excellent. The penne pecorino was solid (8/10), calamari was very good (9/10), and the tiramisu was outstanding (10/10). Street parking is paid, and the décor is just okay. I went for lunch—might have a better vibe at dinner.

We only had the Margarita pizza, but it was VERY good.
The bar is small, but nice and is right in front of the guys making the pizzas – which they do with incredible efficiency.
The ONLY thing is – the food/drinks are a little on the pricey side for what you get.
The pizza is basically an individual size – but we split it.
They are a wine bar, so they only have THREE beers on tap and it was $9 for one beer.
Ricardo was our bartender and he was AWESOME. Great guy and a great bartender as well.
Overall, I would say it’s a very nice place and is a good option for a quick date night out.

Decent food. Good pizza. Dough is average, but flavor is good. Bread is not warm and very chewy, which is a big disappointment. Service is good. Balsamic vinegar is horrible. Very watery.

Food was delicious. Came with a small group and we all got a bunch of things and shared all of them. Meatballs, calamari, margherita pizza, etc. all super yummy. It was very crowded and tables are kind of on top of each other but it’s a small restaurant so i get it and i can’t fault them for that, especially considering the waitlist was so long since they don’t take reservations. My only real issue was the experience itself. It took over an hour to get sat so we honestly just wanted to eat and go about our night. Our server greeted us nicely at first but once he realized we were opting to get a bunch of stuff (previously mentioned items) and share it all he completely switched his mood. I guess maybe he wasn’t thrilled that our check wouldn’t be as high as it could’ve been if we opted for bigger entrees? Not sure but he completely flipped on us after we put in our order and rolled his eyes when he walked away after taking our order. He came back and slammed share plates on the table instead of placing them, like literally slammed them and said nothing to us. Every time he came to check on us while we were eating it was just very awkward and not friendly at all. He would pop in and say “still eating?” We weren’t even there that long, from when we sat to when we left it had been about an hour so it wasn’t like we were holding up the table. It was my friends birthday so we had planned on getting a desert but ended up just paying and leaving togo somewhere else because he was so weird to us (we still tipped 20%). Probably won’t be back because of how uninviting he was so i hope he learns how to be nicer to people or he’s just going to keep driving away business. It’s a shame, that calamari was good.

We came here for a quick bite while wandering around princeton. The drinks were decent and the pizza was also very good. Service was lovely.
