★★★★★ 5.0 Douglas Liebig · May 2025

Ww were looking for somewhere to eat lunch the morning after attending a wedding. Happened to chose this restaurant and could not be happier with the choice. The broccoli rabe and sausage appetizer was first rate, the sausage had a deep brown sear and the broccoli rabe was cooked perfectly. The Parmesan crusted Chicken Caesar salad was recommended by the staff member and it was better than he said it would be. The golden brown layer of parm on the chicken was amazing. The Rigatoni Bolognese was perfect. The sauce had a great balance to it. And, as good as the food was, the service matched it. Everyone we interacted with was friendly and helpful. The chef was out on the floor often ensuring everyone was enjoying their meals. This is one of those places where you can tell everyone that works

From dinners to baby showers, gourmet cafe has you covered in all aspects and the service and hospitality is always second to none. Chef Matt and his employees treat you like family and the food is always unbelievable! Do yourself a favor and call ahead to make reservations since it’s almost impossible to get seated as a walk in but there’s a reason the food and atmosphere is always amazing! Thanks for everything Matt and staff and see you guys again soon!

I have been coming to this establishment since its doors opened and highly recommend it! You will not be disappointed. It’s One of my all time favorite NJ Italian restaurants, and BYOB. The food and service are always consistently outstanding! The staff, and owner/chef Matt is so accommodating, and kind when I bring my almost 92 year old Mom with. Tonight, she ordered her favorite item on their menu, Lobster Ravioli topped with fresh shrimp, and a mouth watering vodka sauce. We also had the chilled crabmeat chicken-peas salad that is one of my favs. it’s so refreshing and plentiful, with a Pignoli Encrusted Sea Scallops appetizer, and a side of capellini carbonara. We ended with the warm homemade apple crisp….so good!

A great neighborhood spot for a fantastic dinner. I had the pistachio crusted salmon and my husband had the beef and shrimp ravioli special. The desserts are delicious and perfect for sharing. I’ve always had great meals here and the servers are attentive and friendly.
