One of our favorite places in town. Sergio Is always wonderful, and so is his staff. Highly recommend the pistachio pasta, or the eggplant Parmesan.

I saw on Instagram that this place had weekend lunch specials so I suggested it for lunch with friends. Entrees were $15 with appetizers and desserts for an additional cost. When I walked in, it was just past opening time so it took a bit for someone to come out and seat me. The waiter was nice and frequently refilled water for the group. I got the skate fish piccata and it was pretty good. I'm not too sure how piccata should be, but it was pretty oily/buttery. I would've preferred a more emulsified sauce, or less butter. We also got a calamari to share and that was pretty good. Overall good for the price, and if you don't want a super heavy meal. The restaurant looked nice enough for a romantic evening or celebration.

We love that it's BYOB & a liquor store is right around the corner! The shrimp scampi was just okay. The eggplant Milanese was different, haven't seen it on any menu before. It was very fried. The rice balls were tasty but we didn't enjoy the garlic parmigiana brussel sprouts. They weren't crispy & too much dressing. However, the burrata was fabulous! The desserts were delicious, especially the Nutella brownie & limencello bread pudding. The entire staff was very attentive too! xoxo

I’ve heard a lot of good things about this place, and finally had a chance to try it. The food was excellent. The service was great. It is without a doubt, One of the hidden jewels in downtown Metuchen I highly recommended

Brought our family here for Sunday lunch special $15++ per person. We ordered different type of Pasta from their menu. My rigatoni is bland. I asked for extra Parmesan cheese to taste. The place is clean and well decorated. Serving staff is friendly and helpful.
If you get Daniel you’re in for a treat. We came here for the first time for Valentine’s Day. Daniel was extremely attentive, gave excellent recommendations, and even ranked dishes by popularity. I got the pistachio pasta which was AMAZING. The food come out very quickly, the portions are large, and the pasta is made from scratch (in house) so it was delicious. I highly recommend the lobster bisque as well. We will be back very soon!

My husband and I celebrated our 35th Anniversary at Torino 2. As always, the food was excellent and the staff was very friendly. At the end of the meal we were presented with a wine glass engraved with 'Happy 35th Anniversary'. It was such a genuinely kind surprise!! Thank you, Torino 2!! Looking forward to dining with you again in the very near future.

I was there a few years ago I love the menu and love the food. Went back last week and was really disappointed. Not happy with the menu selections nor the food. The service was great.
