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.

    Scalini Fedeli offers the best dining experience in New Jersey. They knock it out of the park every time. Lovely atmosphere that’s both elegant and cozy. The staff is very attentive and personable. The food is unmatched. The price fixe is well worth it - I recommend the egg yolk ravioli and the veal scallopini. The attention to quality is very clear. I’ll definitely be back!

    My pasta was just so good. I’m Italian- I love good pasta. So good. It’s high end food. The rest of the meal was great. The pasta stays with me in the memory of my taste buds. I had a spicy Calabrian Fusilli. Delish.

    Over priced for what it is. Food is fine but not worth the price. Service was much less than what it should have been. Restaurant itself is beautiful

    Fixed price includes four delicious items for only $72. Each was well prepared and presented. The service was caring and friendly. Everything was first class.

    It was perfect . Service was on target not overwhelming . The dinner excellent . One negative, the hostess was not welcoming, maybe a bad day. However for a place with your stature the expectation is that the person is a precessional. The first impression was not great. Fortunately the rest of the evening was on target and hit our expectations. John Oswald
