Classical ambiance. Staff provides fantastic and refined service and is highly attentive and anticipatory of one’s needs. The food is stellar without being mainstream and conventional. I appreciate the starters + the variety of dishes on the menu outside of pasta. Desserts resemble an art exhibition, are creative and are definitely the highlight of this restaurant. Fave is the pistachio creme brûlée – yay.

I’ve been to the Scalini Fedeli in Chatham and I must say the Montville location has truly raised the bar. Perhaps I lucked out by booking less busy times, but having been there twice now in the course of the week, I can easily say that this my favorite Italian dining experience in New Jersey. The food is fantastic. Yes, the menu is prix fixe but I have not had a miss from the main menu options yet. You are always greeted with house made foccaccia and some small crostinis/bruschettas upon sitting down. The bruschetta can be divided between umami tomato with a kick, sweet hazelnut and ricotta, and salty tangy salmon dill bites. Each bite is well-balanced and opens up your palate for what is to come. The cocktails are expensive, but I thoroughly enjoyed the bourbon based cocktails. Having a bourbon cocktail served in a martini cocktail glass was a bit unusual but it was good nonetheless. My partners enjoyed the fruitier cocktails and their Moscato. The piccolo/intermezzo contained perfectly cooked shrimp that complimented the sauces excellently. The zucchini scarpace that accompanied the shrimp was delightfully light and was tasty as well. Of the times I have been I got to try a total of 4 primis between me and my partner. Any pasta you select here is cooked perfectly al dente. I had the fusili with Calabrian chili most recently and the umami flavors from the sauce went excellently with the pasta. I think it could have been a little more spicy but it was delicious nonetheless. The papardelle with the pork/lamb shank ragu is a must-try and so rich with flavor. The soft-egg yolk raviolo was also delightful. I appreciated that the truffle flavor did not overpower the dish and instead provided a subtle enhancement to the overall experience. I tried the pork chop for my main dish and it was perfectly cooked. Juicy, savory, yet fully cooked with a perfect crust and an easy going gravy. The gravy could have stood to be a little more experimental with it’s flavor perhaps but it was as good as a classic can get. I also tried the rib eye supplement and it was worth the extra price. The steak was made perfectly medium rare with a phenomenal herb crust and a butter sauce that complimented the meat well. The palate cleanser before dessert was a fresh pineapple with lemon sorbet that made my mother, the harshest critic of them all, say it was the best palate cleanser she ever had. Dessert was somehow even better than the mains. The chocolate robuchon and flourless chocolate cake were the perfect amount of richness. There was a fresh strawberry dish that had the best strawberry cream I’ve ever had and the pistachio creme brulee was excellent as well. Overall, the balance of flavors and textures demonstrated a level of culinary refinement i have had yet to see in many restaurants I’ve been to in North Jersey. For Italian Fine Dining I would come to no other place in North Jersey. The service is attentive, polite, yet warm. The atmosphere was intimate and not too loud. I did not get much wine but they have an excellent selection from what I could see. My new favorite Italian restaurant in NJ!

We had an event in the neighborhood and were searching for a nice restaurant and wow did we find a winner!

Scalini Fedeli was exceptional.

From the moment we walked in the door to the moment we left it was an exceptional dining experience.

The restaurant interior is beautiful, soft vaulted ceilings, comfortable seating and the lighting is just right. We arrived early and were offered a corner booth type table which was perfect for the two of us.

Each course of the fixed price menu was excellent.

We look forward to returning and highly recommend.

This was my first time in NYC and wanted to make sure I had some real good Italian food. After doing a lot of research and Reddit comments. I some how came across this gem and I’m so glad I did! Me and my fiance had never had this type of quality service and more importantly food! They went above and beyond and exceeded all expectations! The tasting menu is phenomenal and the chef is very nice to always make sure everyone gets complimentary dishes. I’m so glad we came here and if we are back to the NYC this will now be a regular visit !

This place is a big break from all the trendy, hard to get, crowded italian places in NYC. It’s old school, you get treated like royalty, anything you order I’m sure is going to be top notch, and you get complimentary small bites from the chef all the time. If you want to impress your in-laws, this is the way to go. The butternut squash ravioli was to die for, and the tiramisu is probably the best I’ve had in the city. I bet the pre-fixe menu is great, but we ordered a la carte and had the best time too.
We didn’t feel rushed to get up and leave, and we just had an amazing evening overall. Would definitely come back soon, thanks for the impeccable service and food!

Such an enjoyable experience…the food was so nice, especially the egg yolk truffle ravioli, one of the best I’ve ever had. The sorbet was very good and refreshing as well. A little suggestion would be that the pork chop(the really thick one) is a bit dry and tasteless, would be so much better if accompanied with some sauce. However other dishes are really delicious.
Service is nice as well. Servers are professional and polite, but also friendly, feels like home. Nick greeted us by the end of the meal and we had a very enjoyable chat.
Love the atmosphere, really nice decor, brings me back to my Europe trip.

What a great place! I came here celebrating a special occasion with seven friends. We were sat at a round table and miraculously we were all able to hear each other and talk. This is a classy joint you can bring your parents. An epic prix fix menu which fits the budget for a fancy meal only $89! Good portions, great flavors, and a perfect amount of options!! We all tried each others food and everything was great. The service was top notch with a team of five people catering to our needs before we thought of them! Thank you for making this a great experience.

High quality Italian restaurant. They offer a reasonably priced prix fixe where you choose your appetizer, main and dessert. They also provide a few amuse starters and a palate cleanser.
The food and service is all good quality.
I really enjoyed the butternut squash agnolitti and the egg yolk ravioli. The chocolate tart was the best dessert.

The food and service at this restaurant was excellent. The menu is a 3 course fixed price or you can order Chef’s tasting menu. We went with the 3 course. There were also numerous two-bite tastings compliments of the chef. My guest had pappadelle veal and pork ragu with a hint of orange as first course and pistachio encrusted lamb chops as the entree and I had the Ecuadorian shrimp and lobster tail as first course and filet of sole Franchese as entree. Delicious! For desert I had the chocolate raspberry caramel tart and my guest had panino pistachio hazelnut caramel wafers layered with hazelnut gelato. Amazing! The waiters and servers were very attentive and friendly.

I would easily give this restaurant 5 stars however, I realized as I was leaving that there was no accessible restroom. The restrooms were down a long flight of stairs in the basement. I know this is an old building but it is the law to have ADA accessible facilities. I encourage the management of this fine restaurant to correct this situation. If you or your guest has mobility issues you may need to pass on Scalini Fedeli.
