“This is a brand new, recently opened restaurant and wow did they deliver for first impressions. Food was absolutely incredible. The sushi was fresh and made quickly. I had the volcano roll and the Naruto rainbow row, it was beautiful and delicious. Very good quality cuts and tasted fresh Really impressed by their milk tea as well. We got the original and Taro milk tea and it was fantastic. Staff was also very friendly and helpful in deciding what to order. Would definitely be coming back the next time I’m in town!”

We loved being able to bring our favorite wine with BYOB. We’re already looking forward to celebrating more special occasions here. Thank you, Chef Tony and the entire staff, for making our night so memorable!”

Also offers an outdoor seating area so you can enjoy the beautiful scenery of historic downtown Chatham.”

“Food was decent and we had great table service from the bartender that was there when we were in for lunch between 11:30 and 1 PM on a Tuesday . The negative is the 4% credit card surcharge. Firstly, I don’t like that surcharge and secondly, I have not seen establishments charge 4% so that seemed excessive.”

“Zio Gino’s has excellent pizza - my whole family Loves it! We also love the arugula salad with chicken, delicious! We order pizza kits, zeppole kits and garlic knots on the regular. Always quick delivery and delicious food. We love making the pizza with our kids. It comes with an over abundance of cheese, toppings, and sauce. The zeppole kit comes with tons of dough and powdered sugar, we ask them to cut it into 18 pieces. I highly recommend Zio Gino’s, you cant go wrong ordering from them! Love the owners! and very nice delivery guy who calls me to tell Me when he leaves my contactless delivery on my doorstep.”

“They have catered some of our company breakfasts. Everyone loves the food! In particular, the Mexican scrambled eggs (scrambled eggs with onions, peppers and ham), mushroom and cheese quesadillas, and tamales have been big hits. The food is really fresh and delicious. The service is excellent and the owner is so friendly. Generally, we are taking out or catering. The restaurant eating area is simple and fine for a quick work lunch. I highly recommend for breakfast and lunch and for catering.”

“Updated 9 years later. Still our favorite. Been coming here for over 15 years and it’s still my local favorite Japanese style restaurant. Food is consistently good, both sushi and kitchen. Menu hasn’t changed much over the years but that’s fine, as they stay true to their strengths. A wholehearted nod to their traditional Japanese and Asian fusion flavors. My parents and I agree it’s the best and closest to authentic sushi and Japanese cuisine in the area, and we’ve been to 9 of them. Service is always attentive, warm, and accommodating. Space is polished and spacious. Great for families, with big or little ones. Takeout is always a breeze. Solid local Japanese restaurant. Staff is extremely friendly and ambience I a respectable attempt at creating an authentic japanese dining experience. The food is consistently good and with the exception of sushi/sashimi purists, most Japanese food lovers should expect a positive dining experience. Sushi/sashimi fare is good. There are creative and tasty rolls if that is your fancy. The cooked dishes actually taste like my mom's old home cooking and my personal draw. In my opinion, they do a solid job with the hot plates and especially with their nabeyaki udon, perfect on those cold nights. Give it a try with an open mind and bring a generous serving of BYOB.”

“The 1- and 2-ratings are not deserving. Always great and fresh bagels. And all the deli items are all superior. When someone writes that they were too busy, there is a reason why they are so busy - because they are great (and nice)!”

“We live in New York, but when we come to New Jersey, we get takeout from Garden Rice and bring it home. The broccoli with garlic sauce is excellent as is the cold sesame noodles. We’ve been coming here since it opened, when we lived in Chatham. The owners are friendly, the service is fast and the price is right.”
