Went here with the hubs for date night as we haven’t been in a few years. Completely forgot that it was there, and gosh, were we VERY happy to have remembered. We will certainly not forget again.
To start out they served a large portion of bread with some sort of ricotta and olive oil dip. The bread was warm. Crusty on the outside and soft in the center. The ricotta had a slight peppered flavor which paired well with the oil. Next we had the arugula & pear salad & the special which was grilled oranges and strawberry with some feta. It was huge, fresh, dressed just right, and everything you’d your salad to be.
For dinner we order the special, rigatoni in a marinara sauce with sausage, eggplant, & mozzarella along with the orange rosemary chicken. I almost didn’t believe how good it was. The pasta was seasoned so well with a hint of spice, and the chicken was tender and thin. Not the rubbery kind of chicken if you know what I mean. It was absolutely plenty to eat. No tiny portions here.
For dessert we shared the bomba and a decaf coffee. No one complained they had to make decaf and the dessert was so yummy.
As for the service, I read in some other reviews that it wasn’t great. We didn’t have that experience. Our waitress gave us the specials in a timely manner, and 3 others checked on us throughout our meal. To be honest, when I’m out with my husband, I’m not in a huge rush and don’t want to be bothered constantly.
It’s a 10/10 and under just under $150. I’d say that’s a perfect night out. We will be back again soon! -The Piccininos

Being obsessed with this place is an understatement. One of my friends told me about it last summer and my family and I had never been before. Fast forward one year later, it’s one of our go to dinner spots anytime we’re DTS, including plenty of times in the off season too. The food here is unbelievable. The quality is incredible and it tastes like you’re eating in Italy. In terms of going out to eat, this is one of two places we frequent most regularly here. Love that it’s BYOB too. Kerri, Alicia, and team are absolutely amazing and always provide the most amazing service and hospitality. I’ll be back soon!

Went there for dinner. Service was spot on. Ordered the Braciole with Gnocchi which was fantastic. Also had the pizza with mushrooms, and was missing the caramelized onions. Would have given 5 stars but how do you forget one of the 2 toppings on the pizza. Will definitely give them another chance soon.

Came here with my family last night and we were blown away by the quality of the food. Everything we had was fresh, hot and delicious! I highly recommend the meatballs and the margherita pizza was to die for! Our sever was lovely as well as the other staff members. This place was outstanding and I would recommend it to anyone – nothing negative to say. The decor and aesthetic is a bonus. We cant wait for our next meal at Valentina’s!

So we were there tonight for Valentine’s day.
I had the Braciola con gnocchi, the sauce was good, not acidic which is a big plus. The beef was cooked really tender, although it had raisins I did not taste them (thank god) and the gnocchi was good as well.
We also had Filet Mignon with mashed potatos… But the mashed potatos had nothing but potatos, so it was very ‘flat’ and the fillet mignon was sort of burned outside.
The deserts were really good, the bread pudding tastes light and with a combination of a sort of flan on the mix.
You can bring your own wine, it was a plus!
But… The service was really bad. The waitress rushed to say what was on the menu, half of it we didn’t even understand. She had a bad attitude, never came back to check on us and she took an extreme amount of time to take the order.
We would have had a better time if the service was a little bit friendly. Unfortunately that was a big turn down. I hope you guys improve that!
The place is very rustic and beautiful, tasteful decoration.
The food was not bad (at least the italian part), but we didn’t feel welcome and neither some other people on the surrounding tables.

Way better than I expected, they have brought their A game with service and pasta made from scratch. Their fried calamari one if the best I have had and their tableside bronzino second to none. Deserts over the top and it’s a byob. I am now a regular!

The food and staff here was phenomenal! We were given a small pizza to try for free which was absolutely amazing. I come from Brooklyn and have had pizza at many different places throughout NY/NJ this is by far one of the best tasting pieces of pizza I’ve ever had. I had a Pinini for lunch which was equally as good but will definitely be coming back to try more dishes here. Paninis come with these delicious eggplant pieces that have a magical cheese coated on them, unreal! Also, the Italian sodas they have are delicious. Top notch all around, highly recommend!

Great service, food, atmosphere. Everything was top notch. The staff was very accommodating. BYOB – There’s a liquor store next door.

We had our rehearsal dinner here in August. Up until the day of the party, the owner Paula was wonderful. We had never eaten here as we don’t live in the area, but read the good reviews and also stopped to see the room and thought it was cute.
Fast forward to the day of the dinner (Thursday night), I got a call from someone (hostess?) confirming our reservation and when I told her Paula had said we could bring our liquor and such over before, she seemed surprised. We did go over and had no problem setting up.
Once we arrived and were mingling, the same hostess seemed annoyed when we were standing talking as they had to seat people in the back room of the room we were using. I had known this before hand, but it was just the attitude she had about it.
Our meals all came out at different times and they left much to be desired. Small portions. Minimal taste. We had about 35 people. I understand it’s a good amount of people, but felt it could have been better.
Cute room for an event, but won’t be coming back.
