Alfonso's Trattoria

Clams & linguine is my absolute favorite pasta dish and this one is 100% in my top 5 of all time, and I’ve had this many places across the country! I’ve moved out of Jersey but make this a stop for this dish every time I’m back east!

While you can't always tell a bad restaurant from the smell of the kitchen from outside, a good place will have that aromatic smell that makes you hungry before you get to the front door. I was on the fence about stopping in because the parking is fairly sparse but I'm glad I stuck it out. Tracy is fantastic, makes excellent recommendations (glutem free mozzarella sticks, who would have thought!) And is super friendly.

Stopped in here for lunch on a Sunday. Alfonso’s is deceptively large on the inside. Staff was fairly attentive and friendly. Bathrooms are inconveniently located on the top floor. Food was decent and plentiful. I ordered pasta that came with a salad and that salad was a meal in itself. The pasta wasn’t cooked great and a bit hard, but the meatballs were tasty. Pizza looked fantastic and I think I would get that next time. Good place and I would come back here for another try.

First visit here yesterday. Was surprised how fast their service was. Drinks were brought out fast. Also learned that Pasta is cooked al dente ( semi hard ) if you want it soft you must say so. Food was very good 👍 😋

Wonderful. Especially the bar side. Very warm and cool. Great pizza and beverage
