About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Charming
  • Romantic
Scalini Fedeli was opened by chef-owner Michael Cetrulo in 1995 and very quickly became New Jersey's highest rated Italian restaurant. Rated excellent by the New York Times in 1996 and New Jersey's favorite restaurant in Zagat's Survey in 2001 and New Jersey Monthly's best Italian and top 25 overall in 2007. Highlights from the menu include soft egg yolk raviolo with black truffle butter, pignoli crusted salmon with artichoke and mint agnolotti in a light tomato and basil broth and braised short ribs of beef with a cherry pepper and port glaze. Set in an historic building built in 1740, the atmosphere is slightly formal with Tuscan style vaulted ceilings finished with Venetian plaster. Tapestry and antique mirrors adorn the walls.

    We dined here for the first time on the occasion of our 42nd wedding anniversary; they gave us the best table in the house and treated us like royalty all evening; the food was fantastic and the experience was just excellent. We will be back

    Scalini Fedeli is a gracious and elegant restaurant that makes a special occasion truly memorable. We celebrated a 40th birthday with family from NYC. We loved the interesting combinations of flavors in the appetizers and main dishes. Save room for the desserts!

    My 2nd excellent visit. This time Dan was our master of ceremonies. Lovely guy. Very attentive and knowledgable about their menus. He picked our wine and dessert. Oh and makes an excellent french martini. We wanted for nothing. Wonderful Kathy kept us in water, bread, pepper and cheese. Thanks to everyone. Bless you. You are a special place. Thanks for getting my shoes back to me.

    From the moment we walked in to Andreas and Tito it was favolosa. We were treated like Queens. The perfect table in the window, recognizing my friends birthdays, exceptional wine choices and course suggestions. This place isn't inexpensive but its worth it. You won't regret it.
