Ordered veal dish. Veal was over cooked. Dish covered with overly thick heavy sauce. The waitress said she would see what she could do. Came back and said they would take something off bill. Which they didn't. Packed it up and said either take it or leave it. Left it would never go back.

We appreciate the folks at Cuvino not just for good food but being good neighbors. We had a funeral to manage and needed to cater the family meal following the viewing. I called over to Cuvino and told them what we needed, where and when. They picked the right variety and amount of food and people loved it. More importantly, I was in such a fog I forgot to ask about prices. When we got the final bill it was incredibly affordable for what they catered. Our family is now a customer for life!

Husband and I stopped in on a whim. Wow is all we can say. Appetizers were amazing, fresh mussels, and tomato and caprese. FRESH mozzarella. Husband has veal pizzaiola and I had the linguine frutti Di mare. Our waitress Elizabeth was outstanding! Highly recommend.

I received the happy hour discount for my 2 glasses of Chianti Classico. I had the Cozze Coperti white appetizer and Eggplant Parmigiana for dinner. I had leftovers for another meal.

It is a fine restaurant. We enjoy their food and look forward to going back to eat there soon. However, I am still a little perturbed that the last time we visited we were sat in the back with the desserts. Where is the ambiance in that? On top of that the place was mostly empty. Next time I will speak up.

Had some bad experiences before, but this visit the food was good and service was good. Large Italian selection.

Had a horrible experience 4 years but our favorite restaurant, Carlos, closed so we tried it. Still lousy. Olive oil and bread both tasteless. Ordered appetizer and salads and 1-2 way through entrees arrived, but waitress had disappeared. Server shrugged and set the plates down as we shuffled plates around the table. When the waitress eventually returned I pointed this out. She said she would go back and tell them, no idea what that meant as she only came back to refill my ice tea and clear the table. The marinara sauce on my entree was tasteless- I should have brought a jar of sauce. The veal was not not prepared correctly either. We eat Italian all the time and are not picky. We just like decent food. Bertucci’s is upscale compared to this place. This place is just bad. I learned my lesson.

My wife and I were in town for two weeks because of a funeral. We just wanted pizza! Boy, did CuVino deliver! The food was so good (appetizer, two pizzas) that we returned a few days later with our daughter and granddaughter. DIfferent appetizer, different pizzas -- and GELATO! Plus, a glass of really nice Italian wine. We are considering relocating to the area -- and CuVino will immediately become our go-to place. I can't wait to return.

We have been using Cu Vino for curbside pickup for the last few months, and they have not missed a beat. All of the food (Eggplant Alta Villa, Chicken Rollatini , Veal and chicken Marsala, Eggplant) has been terrific, good portions, and the Cu vino pride in preparation. We miss going there, and will be back eventually, but it's great to us curbside and know they are still here with care for us! Thanks!

CuVino’s is a special family Venue with really good pizza, calamari, chicken and veal to name a few. The take out menu is very ITALIAN and delicious with a variety of choices. Like many others, we are supporting Ralph, Angelo & Cameron with orders including appetizers, desserts good pasta and veal an oh yes the best ITALIAN wine selection in the city and county ! They couldn’t be more generous with helping philanthropically as well . Bravo and good luck during this difficult time !
We've been to CuVino Trattoria several times and the service and food are consistently excellent. I had a zestful Giardino salad with Romaine lettuce cherry tomatoes, gaeta olives, cucumbers, red onions, and marinated mushrooms with a creamy Italian dressing and the shrimp Scampi with an outstanding lemon garlic wine sauce over linguine. The shrimp and linguine were very good and perfectly cooked but it was the lemon garlic wine sauce that put this dish over the top. It was the best shrimp Scampi I've had anywhere. Kudo's to the chef. My wife had the home made lasagna and she said it was delicious. Jessica, our server was perfectly attentive and offered great suggestions. A couple of Peroni's were the perfect match with the Scampi. We'll definitely be back.

Went on a busy weekend night and was glad a had a reservation. People were being told there was a 30 minute wait. Because of the low ceiling and bare floors this restaurant tends to be loud/noisy during busy times. Started with a delicious LEMONCELLO salad.-Arugala, red onions, cherry tomatoes, sunflower seeds and cucumbers topped with shaved asiago cheese with our lemon extra virgin olive oil dressing,which we shared. For dinner I had the Pasta Rustico-Penne pasta with our homemade crumbled Italian sausage, and tender roasted red peppers in our marinara sauce topped with ricotta salata. It was very good and the sausage was excellent. My wife had the Chicken Chesapeake-Chicken breast topped with crab meat and peas in old bay cream sauce, which was also very good. They have a very large list of wines by the glass and will give you a sample taste if requested.

I am a frequent patron of this family run, wonderful restaurant. Every dish is created with your particular tastes and dietary needs are taken into consideration. The wait staff, bar tenders and owner Ralph always find just the correct wine or drink to complement your meal. I have never had a bad experience or a less than wonderful meal. Please make a reservation, which are always honored for any celebration, romantic meal or casual dining experience.

Overall, we enjoyed our dinner with friends here and the service and food were good. The wine list is extensive. The pizza is thin crust but had good flavor and toppings. The focaccia was nice as were the pasta dishes. The salads are big and fresh. My two negatives-- 1) it is very noisy; and 2) the gelato just wasn't great or flavorful.
