“Love love ❤️ this place. The food is excellent and homemade from scratch. The prices are great. Not to mention the atmosphere has nice people too. Never had a dish I didn't like.“

“The place is a little expensive, but you get what you pay for . The food is fresh and always taste delicious. The people are friendly and always make you feel welcomed. I highly recommend them. I would only suggest a better music selection, but it’s what the owner likes so can’t complain.“

“-The cheese pizza was good
-The margarita pizza was okay. could have done without the huge thick slices of tomato on each slice of pizza

We really enjoyed the bar pies however, the crispier ones were way better than the others. if they sit and get soggy, it's not as good. Def best right out of the over.

Next time I need to try:
-Pepperoni pie
-Old World pie

Parking: Parking lot

Kid-friendliness: very kid friendly. families all over the restaurant“

“I’ve had this place saved on Google maps forever and finally tried it after making a trip to NJ. The garlic knot pizza exceeded expectations and I can’t wait to try more on the menu in the future.“

“Can I please give it 6 stars? I recently went there with a group of five family members while visiting New Jersey and we had a truly extraordinary night! As an investor in restaurants I'm very critical when visiting any restaurant and not often impressed even with well known critically acclaimed restaurants. It's very rare when a place has truly incredible food with every appetizer and entree as well as first class VIP vibes for service. You could literally taste the passion and care put into every plate with beautifully prepared flavorful abundant meals. In fact, it was the first time in almost a decade I brought home leftovers as the meal was delicious and easily sufficient for two people. Our entire table raved about their meals and the attentive but not obtrusive service was always there to refill our wine and assist without any of us having to look up for service. The food alone would have made for a great night but what truly made it memorable besides the great waitstaff was the manager, Eli. When was the last time a manager, GM or owner greated you at your table to share a polite, interesting and passionate conversation about the food and why they love sharing this experience with their valued customers? He made our entire table feel like VIPs and made perfect recommendations for wine and dessert. It felt more like we were in someone's home as we were there for close to 3-1/2 hours talking, eating, drinking and laughing. The ambiance is warm and unpretentious and the memories of a great experience will certainly bring us back again.“

“Excellent food, excellent service and excellent atmosphere. I promise if you try this place, you will be extremely satisfied and for sure you will go back again! This restaurant serves the best Italian food in Staten Island.“

“Wonderful food. Nice attentive service!“

“We recently took my wife to celebrate her birthday here. We absolutely loved the environment, the staff, the food, the drinks, etc. They make my favorite Carbonara out of any other restaurant in this area. The owners and the GM are all wonderful people. I’d recommend it!!!“

“Highly recommend supporting our local dinning. In fact, a party of seven was just booked after sharing a night of Fundraising at Giorgio's.“

“I love food. I love to eat it. I love to cook it. But food to me has always been more than just something to eat. I like to study process. Fun to me is to be able to be in a restaurant kitchen and talk to the chef while he’s making a dish. I want to be able to see what he’s doing and ask about it. Why are you taking the dish off the fire so quickly? Why are you using canned peeled tomatoes rather than fresh? I want to know everything. To me, process can be just as exciting as being presented with the beautiful and delicious final product. This evening, I stopped at an unusual pasta restaurant - All' Assassina. https://www.allassassina.com/ They call themselves the killer pasta project. It’s different. It has an open kitchen. The small dining room is colorful – eye catching. You go up to the front and order your pasta. You decide what will be added in – mushrooms, capers, tomatoes, chicken, olives and more. And then the chef makes it right in front of you. The owner told me that not everybody watches. They’re missing out. This restaurant is offering dinner and a show. And the cooking here is a performance. You get to see what goes into your food and how it is made. It gives you an additional appreciation for what you are about to savor. All the senses go on alert. You could see it. You could hear it in the pan and you could smell it. If you are anywhere near Union, New Jersey, check out All' Assassina. But do not just order and walk away. Look. Listen. And learn. Not everybody likes to cook. But everyone should like to learn. The more you know about what’s in your food and how it is prepared, the more you’ll appreciate good food. The tastes, the textures. Wow. There was an avalanche of different flavors hitting my mouth all at once. It’s worth a trip. Go for the meal. Stay for the show.“

“We had an intimate Repast at Farington's Cafe after the sudden death of my nephew. We were all so impressed with the food... a delicious salad and one of the best penne vodka dishes ever. These were followed by the main course...choice of lemon sole, flank steak or chicken parm. Each and every dish was superb! Beyond this, the compassion shown by the staff was so consoling. I recommend this restaurant to all. You will thank me!“

“very attentive service without being intrusive. Our meals were absolutely delicious, so fresh and hot. Dessert was heavenly. Thank you for making our wedding anniversary perfect“

“excellent, outstanding food and very nice atmosphere.“

“Four of us ate dinner here on a Thursday night. The restaurant was relatively empty and nice and quiet. Very different from the weekends.

This is a very expensive restaurant but also a very extraordinary restaurant, so we felt the expense was worth it.

Decor is upscale and elegant. Perfect to celebrate a birthday or anniversary or just to have a nice dinner with friends.

The tables all have white table cloths, and service was amazing. There is also an extensive wine menu. To our delight they serve our favorite Sancerre (unusual to find in an Italian restaurant) and at a very reasonable price.

The complimentary bread served at the outset was fresh and very tasty.

The grilled octopus appetizer with chickpea sauce was tender. The pasta with pieces of shrimp for the second course was tasty, though the shrimp was slight overdone.

The main courses were all fabulous. The char and swordfish were nice and moist. The filet mignon was one of the best I've had and a huge portion. Side orders of mushrooms and broccoli rabe were very excellent.

The Italian cheese cake with vanilla ice cream for dessert was amazing. The biscotti, espressos, tea, and sauterne were also great.

The ambiance here is wonderful, the staff are friendly and attentive, and the chef himself even came out to offer us a suggestion on something we ordered. It was an absolutely perfect fine dining experience and we will definitely return.

Parking: Large lot across the street. But busy on the weekends.“

“My Step Dad Recently had went for his birthday dinner, with my mom and my step family and wanted to share they recommend this place(they don’t have social media). They had a big party of like 20 people. Food was delicious, servers and service were amazing. Everyone got their food at the same time. They were extremely happy with the restaurant.“

“I really enjoyed this restaurant. The food was very good and the portions were plentiful. The staff was extremely professional and attentive. I would recommend coming here for good Italian food. They are very strict with the reservation rules, so make sure you make one or you’ll be waiting for a table. Will be back for sure!“

“We came with 6 kids (ages 2-7) and my GAWD was the staff patient! Despite the chaos we brought, the waiter/server still answered ALL of our questions and didn't skip a beat on details. And the food...Oh My Gawd, delicious is an understatement! I can't wait to return without children to actually get to eat my food at a slower pace. Do not walk here, RUN!“

“Had a great dinner! Always great service too!“

“Always A+++! Best Vodka sauce! Best staff!“

“Giuliano’s Restaurant is a place where the food is absolutely fantastic. I’ve never ordered something that I didn’t love. The staff are all wonderful. From the first time you walk-in the doors they make you feel like you’re part of their family. I highly highly recommend this restaurant.“

“Excellent service and food. Accommodating for dietary needs. They even took our group earlier than our reservation which was much appreciated as we were all from out of town and heading home immediately following lunch. Roasted potatoes, chicken francese, eggplant parm and sausage with peppers all got rave reviews.“

“Wasn't planning on going out for New Years and ended up at Mulberry. Great staff and atmosphere. I wish I remembered the name of the bartender, but she was so sweet and attentive on a night I am sure she would rather not be working. I have eaten here before and food was great. Thank you again, we will be back soon. Happy New Year!!“

“We went just before closing time and the service was phenomenal! We have a person with autism and they were so patient; when we asked him how he liked his food his response was “the food is so good I feel like I am in Italy.” Thank you for a memorable evening.“

“I have used catering from Mazzella's several times now and never disappoints! Food is always fresh and abundant. Guests always ask where I got the food. 👍👍“

“We had our daughters 18th Birthday Bash here at the Appian Way on: February 5th, 2022. We dealt with Bob throughout the whole process. And he was just great! Alot is included in the price you receive. And many other venues don't compare when it comes to price. Helping to save you some money along the way. The rooms are beautiful and my guest were amazed. The workers were accommodating and helped get our room together way before time. This helped us tremendously with getting most of the setup being done the night before. The lighting is awesome. The food was absolutely delicious. My guests are still raving about the food. It really was better than I expected. I will definitely be back to celebrate more gatherings. Thank you Bob and your staff for your get service.“

“I am from Maryland, was passing thru on the way home. The food was excellent. The Tony salad was so good, got a meatball pizza that was delicious also. Got two pasta entrees, chicken Marsala and one other I can’t remember the name of. Both were delicious. Price was good especially for the area.“

“Amazing food and the service is top notch the best around 5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Delicious food and great service!“

“I must say this 1st, that I was treated very well at Italian Village. There was a mishap with my order. I called and the owner Kristin listen to what had happened. She said that it would be fixed that very moment. So with that being said, I was told to come back to Italian Village to pick up my Chicken cheese steak. The way I like it, so this A is for satisfying a customer. Another A for the taste of the sandwich. At the end of all this, giving someone the benefit of the doubt is important. My sandwich was really good 👍.Don't forget to try that Grand Ma pizza.“

“A lovely traditional Italian dining experience, this restaurant definitely tickled this Italian girls fancy! From the olive oil and warm bread to dip, to miniature lemon gelato as a pallet cleanser before our entrée, I was repeatedly impressed with our experience. I highly recommend.“

“Went to Osfizio last weekend and it was great! The food was so good, the waiter, and all the staff were so nice and polite. There were food options for everyone. Willie was our waiter and he went above and beyond for our table. Will definitely be returning! 10/10“
