We tried Gennaro’s Italian Restaurant & Tomato Pies for the first time after seeing positive reviews, and it did not disappoint. Making a reservation was super easy with their online booking system. At the reception, the manager greeted us warmly and even asked how to pronounce my name, which made me feel genuinely welcomed.
The restaurant is spacious and beautifully decorated. We noticed a large family celebrating a grandparent’s birthday in one of the private rooms, which gave the place a nice, lively atmosphere.
For our meal, we ordered the signature tomato pie, Pasta Toscano, and the pork chop. Everything was delicious, but the tomato pie was truly outstanding. The service was excellent as well—our server was attentive and paced the meal perfectly.
We really enjoyed our time at Gennaro’s Italian Restaurant & Tomato Pies and will definitely be coming back to try more dishes.

Took my wife for our anniversary. First time here, and I must say… the staff was friendly and warm. Kyra our server was kind and attentive. The food was amazing, if anyone goes and catches the Frenched Bone-In Pork Chop, I highly recommend it. We are definitely making this our regular spot.

What a treat! The food was delicious & you could tell they used fresh ingredients. The tiramisu was so decadent. Service was quality & the atmosphere was peaceful. Will definitely come back! This place is a hidden gem.

Our second there and we absolutely love it . The food was delicious. The staff was great! The atmosphere is romantic. So close to home and feels as if you’re not in Hamilton, feels as if you’re out of town. Great date night!!! A great plus is they have gluten free options which was perfect because my wife is gluten sensitive! And she said it was amazing!

We recently went to Gennaro’s for a birthday dinner. The restaurant is split into to two halves, facing two different sides of the parking lot. One side for pizza, and the other for sit-down service. The sit-down side is nicely appointed, if small. Our table was clean and well presented. The waiter took our orders no problem. I ordered the Frutteto salad as a starter, and the Penne Toscano as an entree. It wasn’t until we placed our orders that we were informed that a house salad is included with the entree. Nowhere in the menu does it say this, and the waiter didn’t outline that at the beginning. Anyway, the salad was fine enough. Fresh greens and nicely presented. The raspberry vinaigrette, if present, was tasteless. I was disappointed that the salad was served at room temperature. I feel that the fruit would have had more bite if it were cold. Also, room temperature Gorgonzola is a little concerning. But it ate well enough.
The entree was not as good. I will give credit to the chef for the pasta – it was perfect. It had a nice bite, not too soggy, chewed well. The sausage tasted fine, if a bit salty, but that’s not unusual for cured meat. However, the rest of the dish was also too salty. And the broccoli rabe, oh my gosh, that was a crime scene. Wilted, overcooked broccoli, so saturated with liquid it resembled in both taste and texture, a wet sponge. It was inedible, and I did not finish my plate.
At desert the waiter abandoned us. We ordered three desserts, one order of caramel mascarpone cheesecake, and two slices of blueberry white chocolate cheesecake. However, we only received the order of caramel mascarpone. When we tracked down our waiter and asked where the rest of the order was, he claimed he didn’t hear the rest of the order. This, despite the fact he was looking directly at me when I placed my order before he nodded his head and closed his notebook. Again, the deserts were okay. Plenty sweet, but short on flavor. The mascarpone had just the slightest hint of caramel, and the white chocolate flavor was absent from the blueberry cheesecake. The worst part was that the taste of the crust overwhelmed the subtle taste of the desert so all you could really taste was the crust.
The service was lackluster. We had a hard time tracking down our waiter when we needed something which, fortunately, wasn’t often. We never got a refill on our drinks – never even offered. The denial by the waiter that he hadn’t heard our desert order while looking straight at us is unbelievable. Oddly, there was an additional server hanging around our table staring at the guests but doing nothing that we could discern. She stood, back to the wall, just looking around the small dining room for a good 15-20 minutes. I understand that sometimes workers have downtime in a restaurant, it’s not go, go, go all the time, but it seems odd that an idle waiter should stand around in the middle of a room full of diners and just stare at the patrons for almost half an hour. We found it unsettling. And lastly, the host, to my eyes, was not dressed very well for the type of image the restaurant seems to embrace. The dining room was kind of a modern swank, all tile and subtle lighting, with the waiters dressed smartly in black head to toe, while the host shuffled around in a loose green t-shirt and black slacks. He just didn’t seem to match the whole aesthetic and kind of brought the ambiance down.
Overall, the décor was nice, though the dining room was small. The host and waitstaff were mildly apathetic. The food was edible, but underwhelming. In the end, it felt like Gerraro’s is trying to be more upscale than it actually is. Like a pizza place attempting to be a fine Italian restaurant. And you know what? I think that’s exactly what Gennaro’s is. A pizza joint with delusions of grandeur. We shan’t return.

Went here with my family which was a large group to celebrate my little sister’s engagement and our server was a young lady who was very sweet and did a great job making sure we were well taken care of and was able to laugh off some of my family’s forwardness and demands.
The food was amazing and we all really enjoyed our meals and the atmosphere. I had the salmon meal which was delicious and the appetizer that was on special of huge bacon wrapped shrimp which was absolutely amazing. I’m glad that we didn’t feel rushed and were the last people to leave the restaurant because we really did have such a great time.

This has been one of my favorite restaurants growing up in Hamilton and still is to this day. My server Nicolette was super attentive and great all around. I love that they added a bar!! Can’t wait to come back and get my favorite chicken francese!

Gennaro’s is the quintessential Italian restaurant in the heart of NJ! The food is incredibly flavorful, especially their thin-crust tomato pies and vodka rigatoni. It’s a very family-friendly spot with a welcoming atmosphere and attentive service. Plus, they have a fantastic selection of vegetarian options. A true local gem

To be honest food was great, but when I looked at the card we used we got charged 10 more bucks. I will be transparent we were on a budget cause we just moved in town and we’re still getting our finances sorted and 1 time we decided to eat out on a budget they over charge us 10 bucks extra than what we put in the tip part of the receipt also when I asked the lady on the phone about it she was being rude and sarcastic about it I don’t usually do reviews but this experience was bad enough all I received from the lady was criticism that why am I tipping only that it doesn’t make sense and she was forcing me to say the reason behind why I was asking for the 10 dollars back so I told her it was too much for our budget. Also she doesn’t have to say sarcastic comebacks, I guess this is a lesson learned not to eat out when you can’t afford to tip big.
