Everyone was as nice as possible
This place is consistently awesome. The food, the cocktails, & the service are fantastic
We had a early Val day dinner excellent food
I felt like I was in Italy when dining here. The waitress Magda was amazing. The Veal Chop was fantastic along with the Chilean Sea Bass. I would definitely go back again.
Our go-to Italian restaurant in NJ. Excellent food, owner-curated wine list and service. Owner's passion for pleasing patrons is a big factor in this establishment's long-term success.
It has been 10 years since we have eaten here and I have no idea why. It will join our regular stomping grounds. Everything was great!
Fantastic food and service.
Phenomenal Italian food, cute spot and our server, Alana, went above and beyond. For any special occasion, date night or just craving something fresh and delicious, I can’t say enough about this place. I’m not sure how we have never been here before now, but we will be back again and again.
Lovely surroundings with excellent food and a most pleasant wait staff.

It was our first time at the restaurant and what a surprise. Great food, service and atmosphere. Very safe and the owner was welcoming. We'll certainly be back and tell all our friends and family about our experience.
Black Pasta with Crab & Sun-dried Tomatoes was outstanding. We dine there at least twice a month and we always have awesome meals with fantastic service.
This place is always delicious! The service is top notch—the kind that remembers what you like every time—even if it’s been a while. They FP above abs beyond to accommodate allergies and food preferences. We love L’allegria! Go support this local restaurant!!
The staff was extremely nice and attentive, and the food was amazing! Everything tasted very fresh, big selection of dishes.
I had a lovely dinner with an old high school friend. It was cozy and attractive inside on a rainy night. The server was great.
Food was mediocre and drinks weren't made too well.

The servers did an excellent job and it was a great experience
We drove about 30 miles and glad we did
Given the current circumstances, they are doing a great job.
The outdoor dining under the tent was a delightful experience. It was nicely decorated and service superb. And the food as delicious as always!
Had a horrible experience at a restaurant I have dined in at least 15 times. I went to This restaurant Saturday evening with my husband and 97 year old father. We were seated promptly at a lovely shaded table. That will be my last positive comment. Service was horrific. Waited 30 + minutes with out any communication from wait staff. When questioning waitstaff regarding excessive wait was told the manager didn’t assign table. We were promptly given menu’s and placed order. Fast forward 20 minutes, no cocktails or bread delivered to table. Finally questioned wait staff regarding status of order. Again was told no one was assigned to table. Finally bread and cocktails. We had 6:00 pm reservations and it was now 7:00pm. I could go on but we did have a well prepared tasty meal. When discussing the horrendous service to manager we were casually brushed off. Waitress was downright rude when we explained to her how terrible service had been. We did not”stiff” the waitress out of a tip. We left a respectable 20%. I hope to go back to this restaurant, but after this review I don’t know if I will be welcome.
Nice to be back
I had dinner at this restaurant and was very disappointed. They seated us at a table for 2 and 15 minutes later apologized we were at the wrong table. I noticed the table was empty until I left. The salad portion was small and the vegetables were very tiny. They were in a hurry to remove the bread plate when I wasn’t finished. The service was excellent and the small portions were tasty. I Also had a problem with open table points. They offer 1000 points and do not know how to put the points in. I will not be going back. It is to annoying when portions are expensive and small and they don’t have a clue how to use open table.
Great food and service
Always a good experience, the food & Service are always A+, and you feel very much at home. Thanks !
What a lovely meal! We were celebrating out recent engagement and it was the perfect place to do so. The food was delicious and the ambiance was exactly what we hoped for. I think we've found a new special occasion restaurant!
