Food is always excellent. Loved my bronzini fillet special. The grouper special was also spectacular.

I’ve eaten there once before and I thought it was really nice, today for Easter, The food was very basic. The price was Tripple, the amount of any other restaurant for the same. The appetizers were ridiculously small, for the price was a big disappointment.

Came here for a family dinner. Service is attentive, menu is northern Italian staples. Menu does not have gluten free items labeled so had to search a bit for what I could eat and ask more questions. Explained my gluten sensitivity to the waiter, he assured me that my dish would be gluten free. I ordered the scallops with risotto and I noticed the crispy leeks and should have asked more questions, but my dish still came out with the flour-coated crispy leeks on it. For that reason I would not consider this a celiac-safe restaurant. The scallops were delicious and lemony with capers. Would definitely get this again. My family member got the cowboy steak and gave me a taste and the texture was amazing, super tender and it was cooked to perfection. The seating is good for groups, reservations are a must.

Went to Ponte Vecchio tonight to celebrate our friend's special birthday. She had a private room for her guests . Our food started out with appetizers: fried calamari, very tasty and done just right, stuffed mushrooms that were tender and tasty, shrimp in a red sauce with a little kick and eggplant. Our salad was a choice of Caesar or tossed mesculine. The salad was overdone with cheese and brown and wilted. Disappointed to say the least. The choice of main dishes were salmon topped with a chopped tomato salsa, julienne vegetables on the hard side and baby roasted potatoes; chicken franchise that had too much lemon and a pasta dish. Food was fair. Service was very good and professional.

We had a 5:00 reservation on Sunday and were seated promptly. We waited 20 minutes without a server even coming over to the table, although the restaurant was not full. We left at that point and will not return.

not impressed, the tables could be placed a little more a part. because feels very overcrowded and tight. Food is pretty good, but I think the appetizers are better than the main entries. Had a bronzini special, grilled, but that was more like boiled fish and cost like a piece of goldin conclusion,nothing special****Keep it mind that they make you pay extra if you use credit card for payment, it would be a fee for that!!!!

Went here for my step daughters birthday and everything was great. Even tho we were there for over 3 hrs the staff was very attentive and always brought what you asked for. The food was delicious as always. It's a BYOB. There is a liquor store in the same plaza. Great place for a dinner or out to celebrate a special occasion. I don't eat seafood and a lot of their food on the menu was seafood but they have other things too. I recommend everything!Parking: There is a lot of parking but If other businesses are open in the plaza it's a little harder to find a spot.

Outstanding

Ponte Vecchio always offers a huge variety of choices with a big variety of "specials". The only area that needs improvement is the service which was very slow this time. The restaurant was very crowded and there was not enough servers.

The place is related to Lou Cas in Edison! Should I say more. Expensive for over cooked steak. The food is totally overpriced and terrible. I have friends that love it, but they are Irish.

We we're looking for a BYOB for my BDay dinner Ponte Vecchio was recommended by a friend We had a wonderful waiter , Steve Food was amazing , generous portions room was very nice We didn't feel rushed We will be back sooner than later!

Valentine's Day dinner, place was packed, as expected, but was promptly seated at reserved time(7pm) waiter was attentive but not overbearing. Nice menu items, plenty of seafood options as it was lent. Had the seafood capellini which was excellent except the lobster bits, which were over cooked and chewy. Girlfriend had a shrimp pasta dish which she enjoyed . dessert options were plentiful, I choose the cheesecake ( as usual) and she a coconut ball concoction which she enjoyed. Restaurant is BYOB, which, sadly is becoming more and more necessary due to the outrageous prices being charged for a drink at many restaurants. So the check was reasonable for the food served and occasion.
