Best Contemporary Italian Restaurants in Short Hills

Good food but the portions are small. Our order was delayed. Quaint atmosphere but rather loudly

Excellent food provided by friendly servers in a warm, cozy atmosphere is where you want to go for a great dinner. The roasted garlic bulb is heaven on top of their delicious bread. Order one of their soups like french onion garlic or langostino bisque for a great start. Our entrees were garlic shrimp over saffron rice and garlic shrimp alfredo over fettucine...delicious! We ended with the lemon tartlette for dessert...very tasty. Oh yes...don't forget to order their sangria. It's perfect!!

Everything about this place is incredible - the atmosphere, the service, food, dessert - it’s truly a joy to eat here. Some highlights include the polpete, antipasti plate, cacio e pepe, organic chicken parm and lobster fettuccine. We also had the tiramisu which was such a treat and great way to round out the meal. If you’re looking for an upscale yet relaxing dining experience in Montclair - COME HERE! Everything we had was to die for (special shout-out to the chicken & lobster fettuccine - some of the best I’ve ever had). My new favorite restaurant in Montclair.

MV is honestly one of the most beautiful, festive and accommodating restaurants. Especially at this time of year- soo festive! We went on a cold night and it was a bit chilly, so I was glad I didn’t wear something sleeveless or backless. The food is amazing and this restaurant really takes pride in their dishes which are family recipes. All 6 of us loved everything!

Absolutely fantastic experience as always. Celebrating a milestone birthday. It was everything you could hope for. Can’t wait to return.
