Some restaurants radiate warmth the moment you step inside, and this is one of them. From the seating to the final farewell, every staff member was polite and professional. My steak was cooked to a perfect medium-rare, and the pasta was easily one of the best I’ve ever had.
Oh, and don’t miss out on the cocktails! We ordered the ‘Vagabondo’ and the ‘Espresso Martini,’ and both were absolutely delicious.
Truly a place I want to revisit on a special day.

Fantastic Italian spot. Very good wine selection by the glass and bottle. $1 oyster deal on happy hour. Chicken parm was thin and super flavorful. All the pastas were delicious and complex.

To say that this was an exquisite meal is an understatement! I have the pleasure of Celebrating my birthday here and it was one of the best dinners I’ve had in a long time!
It was voted top five best chicken Parm in New Jersey and it’s easy to see why! Everything else on the menu was also truly amazing, my friends wanted seafood, so they had some carpaccio and also shrimp, which were incredible!
The true stars were the truffle pasta, and of course, the parm! Definitely visit the artwork in the bathroom lol

The food was true Italian cuisine. I had the chicken parmigiana. The aroma reminded me of my Nonna’s cooking. It was comforting and nostalgic for me. The dining experience was memorable. Thank you Verana! We will be back!

Absolutely superb on every level!
We began at the bar to enjoy 2 dozen oysters during happy hour with inspired cocktails.While doing so,we enjoyed the friendly and over accommodating bartenders.
On to the meal..tuna carpaccio,meatballs,veal parm and halibut were outstanding,accompanied by gratis bread and whipped ricotta.
Service was attentive and the atmosphere was intimate and elegant.
I have no option but to become a frequent patron as there are many items I still have yet to enjoy.
Truly memorable.

Went there for my birthday and left extremely satisfied. My husband and I got fried calamari as appetizers and the chicken parm and a pasta dish as a main. The food was amazing, so tasty. Probably the best chicken parm I’ve ever had. The drinks were pretty good as well and the service was phenomenal. If you’re thinking of trying it, please do, you won’t regret it.

Fine dining without the pretentiousness. Everyone was so friendly and greeted us with warm welcoming smiles. The outside is simple modern, the inside is warm, classic but not old fashion. Flowers/plants hanging from the ceiling makes it feel like we are dining near a vineyard, so cute.
Taina was attentive. She went through the specials of the day and asked about allergies. She patiently and knowledgeably explained what had dairy and help determine what dishes could be adjusted.
Amore Milo has mezcal, it was very smoky
Cocomero so good without and with the bourbon
Calamari from the specials was delicious, the marinara was amazing
Chilean Seabass from the specials was melt in your mouth goodness
Veal Chops from the specials was so tender and flavorful
Melanzane Fritte (Eggplant) accommodated me by putting the cheese on the side so hubby can enjoy it the way it was meant to be eaten, while I had no dairy experience which was still absolutely delicious, I could have eaten this as a main entree
Blueberry Neapolitan was crispy had a light and airy filling with a perfectly balanced sweet and tart blueberry compote (I will never give up dairy in desserts! I’ll suffer the consequences later for a good dessert. Lol)
All in all we had a lovely meal. Definitely a must visit, special occasion or not.

First time dining and had a magnificent experience. the bread and cheese starter was fantastic. chicken parm, spaghetti pomodoro, and paccheri alla bolognese were all 10s (which is not easy to achieve). the bolognese was the sleeper hit. More than anything, the service was the most important highlight. Gray was our server and made sure we had a fantastic night. Her attention to detail and great timing made us feel so welcome and attended to. Highly highly recommend this place, they’re doing everything right. environment is also so beautiful to boot.

I don’t get the hype. Best thing we had was the bread, it’s delicious. Shrimp appetizer was cold, undercooked and covered in some butter/mayo that was congealed. Drinks took over 20 minutes to arrive. I got the famed chicken parmigiana…it comes out round like a pizza. It was fine but nothing exceptional. Tiramisu was tasteless and not sweet at all, felt like I was eating butter. We ordered after dinner drinks and halfway through dessert they never arrived. We got the check and left. Don’t think I’ll return. Very expensive and service was so so. Had to ask for salt and pepper 3 times, drinks took way too long to arrive. Their sister restaurant Mykos is terrific, spend your money there instead.
