Best Restaurants with a Tasting Menu in East Rutherford

Wonderful food for delicious lunch w friends. No noise problem but cramped space.

We had the Adana kebab (went for seconds), hummus, baba ganoush, celebration rice, hot coco and Turkish coffee to top it. The food was amazing - I was expecting a long wait but not at all - we were in an out in less than an hour. My family that generally avoids baba ganoush (almost) licked it off the plate. Only thing I wish for is more stomach space.

Becco is an Italian restaurant near the theatre district. While narrow at the entrance, it extends room after room to the back. Service was prompt and sensitive to theatre show times. Tables are very close together, but since everyone is there to eat and enjoy, it only presents a problem to the claustrophobic. Appetizers were generous and very well presented. The special - lasagne Bolognese - was well put together, flavorful and rich. Even the bread and olives, put out early were top notch. The wine list is broad, but the pours for individual servings were generous. Unless you plan to finish a whole bottle, one glass should be ample. We didn't get desserts, but the dessert menu was tantalizing. Next time. Service was first rate. If you plan on going, I would advise reservations in advance, which we did. Wait times when we got there were over an hour, and on an early Thursday evening. This is good classic Italian cooking, well-presented and customer focused.

We had the most amazing time at Aunt Jake's Pasta Making Experience. From the moment we arrived, I just knew it was going to be fun! The chef who taught us about pasta was funny yet informative; the atmosphere was cozy; the staff was friendly and attentive; and the food was delicious. The process was easy to understand and very well organized. What a great date and a wonderful way to start the new year. Highly highly highly recommend! :)

Our waiter Juan was great and always very attentive! Loved the food! We will definitely be back. 😋
