Might have been the best cod fish ever, with nicely done spinach. Atmosphere is very nicely done, like an Italian villa. Calamari appetizer was just okay.

Our first time at this joint,First thing we noticed was the smell of cannabis in this small place, I’m not against it but when I eat I like to be free of that kind of distraction. We.asked for a couple of the wine glasses that were hanging at the bar are and the server told us to use the glasses for water.Food did not have traditional flavor at all, it was flavorless, my girl asked for veal and it seemed like they couldn’t get the flavor they were looking for and added a bunch of other flavors to mask the mistakes, I would not recommend this place. I really hope this review helps them realize that they need to improve the way they go about their business.

Hands down my favorite Italian restaurant in the world, I'm there at least once per week. The portions are enormous (for two people at least) and their vodka sauce is to die for. I love pork chops too and my favorite salad is the string beans one - I could eat it every day. Maybe not the fancy looks but you will love their food, I promise you.

This is the best place to eat and to places order. I order catering like a few weeks ago on 10/21/2023 and the food was delicious everyone said the food was delicious they ask me where i order. Also the two girls the one who took my order and the one who gave me my order when I pick it where so nice also the person who help me to bring the food to the car. They really cook delicious

I brought a date to the north end of Newark where I grew up boasting about my Italian heritage and a small restaurant "gem" Luigi's Albeit it was more than 5 years since I had been back to the neighborhood. I was so embarrassed by the food quality. I had known the restaurant for homemade specialties. My date was in the mood for pasta and ordered the ravioli they were tough and dry and the sauce was tart under cooked. When I asked I found none of the pasta is homemade anymore. Really the worse frozen ravioli I had tasted. I had the chicken savioe. Disappointing as well. The chicken was not tender and was in a thick brown sauce bitter nothing like stretch's chicken Savoy from the Belmont tavernThe food quality has changed greatly sorry to say I can't recommend what was once a home made food experienceDid I mention our pitcher of water had a big dead fly in it.

They serve the crispiest fried calamari I ever had.
My sister and I love this place! It's a small Italian restaurant with a lot of heart, good people and good service! Food is excellent and well worth the trip!
My new favorite Italian spot!! Authentic, freshly made, and amazing service by 2 of the nicest ladies ever . Extremely jovial, down to earth, and made us feel like we were regulars. Checked on us from time to time but not overbearing, made sure we had what we needed and super laid back. Never made us feel rushed. I had Linguine with clams in red sauce. Fresh pasta. Fresh clams. Amazing flavor. My other half had the pork chop. Juicy, fresh, and delicious! For dessert we split the pistachio stuffed croissant; also made fresh to order. The place isn't too big nor too small; perfect size. A bit in the intimate side. Played the best music too. Definitely going back xo. See you soon!!!

We order from work for delivery or pick up at least once a week and I've had lunch here about twice. The food is always great the service is fast and efficient, the girls here are amazing. Great local place to bring your own bottle of wine and have a nice quiet lunch or dinner. This place has been here for as long as I can remember, that alone has a lot to say about this spot.Parking: They have parking across the street.
