From a state known for its high-caliber Italian restaurant scene (NJ), I can attest to the authenticity and incredible quality of the dinner menu here. Food made fresh on premises and wonderful ambience. Started with an incredibly fresh beet salad and Tuscan tomato soup before thoroughly enjoying some of the best veal marsala I have had in a while. This place blows many establishments in the NJ/NY area out of the water. I'll be making regular appearances at this restaurant - everything on the menu is incredibly enticing and there's so much to try!

Great service and staff! Fried oysters and calamari were wonderful. I should have known not to order a steak at an Italian restaurant, but I was craving one and went for it. It was a cheap cut of meat, poorly seasoned (only salt), and pretty tough to cut. My daughter compared it to country ham. The pastas we ordered were decent, but for the price I was a bit disappointed.

Food was delicious. Services was terrible. The server was near absent, inattentive, and I learned there were specials as we walked out the door.

To start off, atmosphere was great, very cozy, not very loud and great lighting. Service was decent, very standard, although did say what's up which is nice. BUT the FOOD on the other hand. Not it. Wife pasta had at least 10 bits of shells mixed in with the food, and constantly stabbing her gums. Flavor, meh, for price and ambiance we were expecting much better. As for me, (partly my fault) I ordered the josephine. a single chicken for 22 dollars. Granted, it did not say it came with a pasta, but i definitely expected it for the price. It wasn't bad, but not nearly even worth 10 dollars for a single fucking chicken breast. Not to mention wife's pasta, was mid. Maybe it's cuz i'm not italian, idk, shit was not all that. I'd rather spend 50 bucks at olive garden and get a little wasted and have unlimited breadsticks lmao.

Our pasta bolognese was way undercooked (we are Italian). They did not offer to address the issue other than, I'll tell the cook. Would not return, I'm sure there is better Italian food restaurants in Williamsburg.

I recently went to Giuseppe's in order to get their delicious blackened chicken Primavera. I was greeted by the hostess stand, and they were so warm and inviting. The dining room was decorated in a festive manner, and I felt quite at home. I had a little weight for my table to be ready, but I didn't wait too long. The survey came out and brought the menu and took our drink orders. She asked if there were any appetizer requests and she offered a couple of suggestions. We decided to get the chicken wings as it was for us to eat while we looked at the rest of the menu. The drinks came out and soon after the wings came out. They were cooked to perfection. We asked for buffalo sauce on the side and they honored our request. We were able to dip the freshly fried wings in the sauce and it was absolutely delicious. While we were eating that server came over and took our entrée orders. Everyone got the blackened chicken Primavera as it is one of their greatest dishes. The food came out, hot and ready. Everything was fresh, and the Alfredo sauce was freshly made. It was extra caretaking because it was so creamy and it coated every piece of the dish. The squash zucchini were tender but tooth. The broccoli was fresh. The blackened chicken was cooked appropriately, and the entire dish warmed our hearts. We save room for dessert and got the fried dough that came with the different sauces. They were absolutely fantastic. If you're in the area and want some local fair, please come to Giuseppe's. They offered Italian cuisine that is not the chain restaurant experience.
