    Living in Bergen County, NJ, close to Manhattan, there are many options for Italian food. Opened in 1998 across the street from the Holy Name Hospital on Cedar Lane in Teaneck, my partner, our friends, and I decided on dinner here as first-timers for some of us inside a renovated carriage house. Parking is limited in front of the restaurant, but one can park on a nearby side street or across the street in a parking lot. We had dinner reservations for a party of 7 on Saturday night by calling the main line to Amarone, clearly popular with the locals. Upon arrival at this small, quaint establishment, my partner, our friends and I were greeted by one of the owners and seated promptly in one of their dining rooms at a table covered with white tablecloth. The vibe was relaxed with dim lighting. The menu is varied, serving authentic and traditional Northern Italian fare. There's a separate menu of the day's specials. For appetizers, we decided on some specials consisting of Fried Zucchini Flowers, Pear Salad, Oyster Cocktail, Homemade Crab Cake, Calamari Fritti, and Mista Salad. Our main entrees were Lasagna, Linguini Vongole, Beef Meatballs, and Penne Con Carciofi. Complimentary bread started our meal. The food was expertly prepared to perfection. The ingredients used were fresh, and those flavors were familiar and comforting. The pastas were perfectly cooked, and the sauces were rich and delightful. Portions were spot on. After our meal, the staff brought a complimentary pumpkin tartufo with a lit candle to celebrate a friend's birthday.   The restaurant management made sure one felt at home, and the owners Nick and Nick would check on us periodically. Our server Juan Carlos was knowledgeable, attentive, and accommodating. The prices weren't really for budget-sensitive patrons. Yet at the same time, they were quite reasonable, especially given the overall excellence of the dining experience.   If you haven't been here, you should. If you have, then you need to come back again, and we can recommend this place.

    Caprese appetizer, one of two
    Scott S.

    We had dinner outside on a July night - The Osso Bucco was very tender and gnocchi's pretty good as well. Jimmy, the waiter brought us out some nice Italian bread and virgin olive oil organic from Italy. Nice touch. We actually started with the Caprese salad, which had a delicious roasted red pepper on top. Very nice touch! My colleague is a bit finicky with his taste, doesn't like cheese or anything, but he had two massive pieces of very nice chicken just the way he likes it. Seasoned well. I think what I most enjoyed was the waiter was willing to make changes to our meals just like we asked .

    Quaint place and great service! Some dishes were fantastic but I chose the bland one which is my fault. I wouldn't recommend the eggplant ravioli however everything else was great!

    Salmon with brandy cream sauce
    Nicole A.

    Very good meal! Their Pinot noir bottle was delicious and reasonable. Every appetizer was wonderful. We enjoyed the chef cheese plate, the calamari, and three different salads. Everyone was satisfied. Water was refilled promptly. Service was excellent. Dinner was amazing. My daughter had the steak and said it was tasty. Husband had the duck - perfectly crispy on the outside and moist on inside. I had the salmon, it could have been cooked a tad longer but that is my own personal preference. Everyone else at the table Enjoyed their meals. Solid 4.5 stars!

    Salmone Grigliato
    Diana A.

    First time to place a delivery order from Amarone Rest. Delivery was early The salmon was amazing and interesting: medium crispy in the sides; it was fresh, tasty, good amount. Great presentation. It comes with steamed vegetables and 1/2 pc. of baguette on the side. The salmon goes with A little soft, sweet sauce with peas and Mustard; Bravooo!!! salad was fine. $$ price I will recommend this place for sure. God bless you, guys

    Octopus

    Amorone is a friendly, welcoming and warm Italian restaurant right across the street from Holy Name hospital. My fiancé and I ordered the grilled octopus as our appetizer, which came with cannellini beans. I would have never thought of the two paired, but it was surprisingly good. I then ordered the Black Linguine Tuttomare as my entree dish. It came with homemade black pasta, shrimp, calamari, mussels, clams, garlic and tomato sauce, this dish was also just good. Overall I thought both dishes lacked flavor. It needed some spice or some type of oomph to it.

    Celebrated my moms birthday here covid style and it was a hit amongst our family! Got to try a few dishes including the fried calamari, grilled octopus, lobster ravioli, black linguini tutto mare, veal, and a chicken dish which were all so deliciously prepared. BUT if I were to choose the absolute essentials you MUST order from here, you really cannot go wrong with the grilled octopus and black linguini... both dishes were so yummy and truly like no Italian food I've had in this area. In particular, it was my first time trying octopus and I was pleasantly surprised at how much I found myself grabbing for more. I think a restaurant that can make octopus appetizing is a true winner in my book :-) To top it all off, our waiter was soo friendly-he constantly checked up on us and struck up conversation every so often which added a very personal touch to the service. He even brought out a few extra candles in an attempt to keep us warm from the cold October evening which was very considerate. All in all, Amarone is a gem in the area that you don't want to miss :) definitely recommend!

    Grilled octopus
    Marita S.

    Five star service from the time we walked in we were greeted warmly and seated inside at a very cozy table for two. Amazing tasty cuisine... grilled octopus with beans, linguine tutto mare, grilled fresh fish , and for our sweet ending we had the decadent tiramisu with delicious cappuccino. They were very well staffed, truly five star service!!! We were very well taken care of!!! Compliments to your Chef and entire staff!!!

    Pasta Fagioli
    Matt K.

    Great spot for classic Italian vibes. Tres leches cake was a good addition, impulsive but worth it. Perfect night for soup and branched out for the duck. Next time, I'd try the pasta dishes vs the duck.

Vibes: - Restaurant was dimly lit with little space between each table - Space felt cozy and warm Service: - Waiter was extremely kind and funny - Course timing was somewhat long but was easily forgiven based on how hot the dishes were Food: - Polpettone Della Nonna (lamb meatballs) had a citrus flavor to it, which was a nice surprise! It was different from the meatballs I've had thus far, but they were pretty salty... - Gnocchi al Gorgonzola was super creamy and rich in flavor - Hanger Steak was easily the most disappointing dish honestly. Portion size was a lot smaller than what was expected given how expensive this dish was

    BV Tuscany 368 Cedar Lane…read moreTeaneck, NJ 07666 The cutlet and pasta were very tasty. The size of the cutlet did not disappoint. The red sauce and shredded parmesan cheese went well with the main and the side. The chicken parmesan is served with mixed vegetables. Substituting the veggies is not allowed, so I ordered a side of pasta for an upcharge. Although I enjoyed this meal, the minor drawback is the substitution policy. In my personal opinion, I feel that pasta is the ideal side dish for any CP entree. Vegetables should not the side dish unless I'm ordering chicken marsala or chicken francese. Otherwise, I was still satisfied with the food, service and overall ambiance of the restaurant.

For entree, we ordered the Chilean Sea bass, that had a very well cooked filet, but the risotto didn't taste good to me. I got had the Branzino that had extra crispy grilled skin, but the fish itself survived from being dry. The kale was good and mash potato was decent. My daughter liked her penne pasta with butter and cheese. We wanted to get some mocktails, but they were out of virgin mojito, per the server. Not sure how was that possible!!! The disappointing part of the lunch was the mediocre service. Even though I mentioned it was a birthday celebration in the reservation, no one bothered to wish or ask us if we were celebrating anything. Our server only had to attend our table, yet he only came by three times, once to ask us about water, then to take our order, and once after our appetizers were served. Half of the time he invisible and rest of the time he was just hanging out by the register area stairs, chit chatting with other staff members. We refilled our own water and had to grab other stuff members to get extra plates and utensils. I was super annoyed to pay premium price only to experience a diner like service. I didn't even bother to order the Zeppole from the dessert menu. I paid the check and we walked out as quickly as we could.

    So, the comfort that I didn't quite find at my hotel? I found it here -- at an Italian restaurant…read more I wasn't so much in the mood for Italian food as I was for patio/al fresco dining and something delicious to drink. The food was an afterthought (initially). At Aumm Aumm, it (the food) became the main story. My rideshare dropped me off and I thought, 'This will do.' A large patio in the late spring sun was just what I needed. I walked in and said I was a party of one and I wanted to eat outside. Done. Soon, a very chatty and kind waiter was taking good care of me and offering a glass bottle of still water.* As I am wont to do, I ate in waves: appetizer and main course (and, if I have the room/interest, dessert). A drink and a solid. A began my meal with the burrata. Rarely can you go wrong with a ball of cheese but this was a silky, milky sphere of mozzarella, served with oranges, toasted walnuts & topped with truffle honey. Truffle honey. I tried to pair every bite with cheese, citrus, nut, and honey and each time I was successful, my mouth sang. To accompany my chews, my waiter suggested Rancoli Vermentino, a dry white with a crisp finish and enough adjacency to the fruit components of the burrata to make it make sense. Lovely. I forgot that I was in Jersey. For my main, I had a GF version of the pennoni alla genovese napoletana - slow-cooked caramelized onions & diced beef pasta. Simple but incredibly flavorful (which, I've learned, is what Italian food is all about). The plate was large and I could smell it before I saw it (a very good thing). To help bring the dish to life, my waiter suggested a warm red blend (earthy, cherry/berry forward). He was correct on the type of wine but I was a bit disappointed in the price point. Believe me, I know the ins and outs of the restaurant biz, but this glass should have been (at least) a couple of dollars cheaper (knowing what I could get a bottle for). This slight faux pas lessened my rating to a 4. Not the end of the world. Just know what you're paying for before committing. I was pleasantly full so I passed on dessert/coffee. Th NJ sales tax was less than I was used to but the dreaded credit card charge fee made an appearance. I probably spent more money on dinner than I would at present but I don't regret the experience. I slept very well that night. *There was a charge. Know before you go.
