First time at Nonna’s. The Service and Food are outstanding. The price point is also very competitive. Very friendly staff and accommodating as our table had tree nut and peanut allergies. There are two sides of the restaurant. We were on the right side, which was a bit noisy. Perfectly fine as it’s a lively environment, but if you’re looking for something a bit more on the quiet side, we noticed the left side of the line was a bit more quieter. Nice touches the had complementary valet parking.

This was the first time we ate at Assaggini di Roma and it was excellent. I ordered veal franchaise and it was very tender and delicious. I can’t wait to go back. All the meals at our table looked very well presented. The Chicken Milanese and the Balsamic Chicken dish both looked delicious. I was very impressed. Our server was also very pleasant and our meals came quickly even though the restaurant was busy.

Osteria is one of our favorite Italian restaurants. We dine there 6-8 times a year. The food is outstanding and the service is very good. They have a large menu of Italian food, and outstanding steaks as well. For those who want something lighter, they make pizzas. There is a full bar and a nice wine list. Today's visit was no exception. Our server, Anthony, was friendly and helpful. We shared an appetizer of Yellowtail Crudo. It consisted of 7 slices of yellowtail with olive oil, lemon juice, basil, red pepper flakes and crushed pistachio nuts. It was fresh tasting with multiple layers of flavors and textures. My wife had a special of Stuffed Shells stuffed with lobster and ricotta cheese in a cream sauce. I had a special of Seafood Fra Diavolo over spaghetti. Both dishes were outstanding and the portions were large. Looking forward to our next meal there.

    We had a fantastic experience at Elizabeth's in Old Bridge, and a huge part of that was thanks to our waiter, Tom. From the moment we sat down, he was absolutely amazing—attentive, friendly, and incredibly welcoming. He timed everything perfectly and made sure our table was well taken care of from start to finish. The food was absolutely delicious. We started with the whipped ricotta and a crisp caesar salad, both of which were perfect beginnings to the meal. For our main courses, the chicken parm and chicken Milanese were phenomenal—fresh, full of flavor, and cooked to perfection. We finished the night with the tiramisu, which was the ultimate sweet ending. The combination of top-tier food and Tom's outstanding hospitality made for an unforgettable dinner. We will definitely be back, and we’ll definitely be asking to sit in Tom's section! Highly recommend.
