Best Contemporary Italian Restaurants in Bloomfield, New Jersey

Food was amazing! The beet appetizer was fabulous and the bread board was a big hit. The warm bread and homemade butter was great! The dinner we had was fresh and cooked perfectly.

Let me start by saying that service was impeccable! Starting with the hostess being very attentive and nice, to our server that was 10/10! Food wise, we ordered the tuna tartare which was good. Not a classic tartare but really good! A very nice surprise with the tonato sauce, paired with micro greens and freshly toasted bread and olive oil on the table. We continued our meal with two seafood dishes and the shrimp and mussels were cooked beautifully. The restaurant offers a nice cozy atmosphere and did we mention that the service and the staff were amazing? Mr. Franco Porporino (the owner) seems to care very much about his restaurant and customer satisfaction and that left us very impressed. All the best and happy holidays, Anca & Liv

Delicious food and amazing desserts. It's our first time here. We loved all the food we ordered especially fritto misto, focaccia, chicken parm, and linguine frutti di mare. The organic chicken parmesan was crispy outside yet so juicy and flavorful inside. The linguine was so tasty that we're all thinking of ordering it again next time. Save room for desserts! Three of us wanted to share a dessert but couldn't decide which one to order. We ended up ordering all three (so glad we did!!): The cheesecake, tiramisu and Panna Cotta. The cheesecake is one of the best we've ever had, tiramisu is rich and iconic, panna cotta is so creamy with a touch of sweetness from the fruit. The ambiance is elegant and welcoming. Good for any occasion from casual dining to date night to formal outing/celebration. The decor is beautiful and romantic. The service is warm, friendly and professional. Make reservations before you go!! We look forward to visiting again to try other menu items. Highly recommend!!

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