My friend and I ordered the 3 course meal special, and let me tell you, it's worth every penny. The tiramisu was the cherry on top as they say, because everything was flavorful.

PS: It's BYOB so don't forget to bring your bottle of wine. This food pairs well with a glass of wine.

Went on a Saturday evening for an early dinner with a reservation and got seated right away. 6:30 came around and they got packed. The Diavola pizza is SPICY!! Definitely has a kick- a great one- but not meant for children. The veal parm was amazing- great flavor, crispy outside, and a sweeter marinara. The carbonara rigatoni was so good- rich and the perfect amount. Wasn't a huge fan of the Orecchiette Pulia- little bland but good sausage and the broccoli gave it some freshness. All our dishes were hot, and the best part of this restaurant- BOYB and no corking fee!

We ordered delivery from this pizza place last night and were not disappointed! We called around…read more6pm on a Thursday night and it got delivered in about 45 mins. We got 3 pizzas: plain cheese, pepperoni, and Sicilian. The pizzas were large, crust was well-made, and cheese + sauce ratio was on point. The Sicilian is super thick and doughy, a unique type of pizza to get that was different than the more traditional style. We were all very pleased with the pizza and it was especially great to have this quality at an affordable price (delivery price came out to $72 and we had plenty of leftovers). Glad we found this place to try while in NJ!

Velo is a casual local BYOB cafe in Ventnor that offers breakfast & brunch. I visited on a weekend…read morefor brunch & enjoyed it very much. They're only 2 blocks from the beach, so only street parking is available. There's a nice variety of breakfast & lunch options. I had the Orale Benedict which has chorizo on top of a slice of sweet potato instead of an English muffin. My poached eggs were a little under but I still enjoyed it. It came with salad or fruit. I opted for the salad & thought the vinaigrette was fresh & tasty. Service was prompt & friendly. I also liked that they brought out an ice bucket for my sparkling wine. They also have specialty coffee drinks that I'll have to try next time because I will definitely be back!

The omelet was fairly good, but I was disappointed with the fruit. It was an up charge and the portion was tiny. My husband got the stuffed French toast with a side of turkey sausage. The French toast was very tasty but the turkey sausage was overcooked and not good. I would love to come back and try Velo for lunch.

Very friendly staff. Not so good food…read more Got seated right away and got placed at a very questionable shaky table. It felt like an earthquake was occurring everytime you shifted something on the table. As a peer tried to cut his food another peer's wine completely spilled everywhere. The staff was aware from the start it was wobbly table, but the other tables were reserved (and some were also very wobbly) so they did not offer us a different spot. We ordered food based on some recommendations from the waiter and some that we wanted to try. Short Rib Fries - Fries were not very good in terms of taste and crisp. The ribs were ok... tasted like cheap meat Fried Mozzarella - Standard not bad, nothing unique Ultimo Burger - the patty tasted like a microwaved, very bland and had to add ketchup for any flavor. Baked penne - was definitely the best item I tried on the menu. Very rich creamy pasta Mango Cart Draft Peers - Not bad. Only $6 for a draft so very reasonable. Cabernet Sauvignon Wine - did not taste good whatsoever. Would not recommend. Aperol Spritz - the splash of soda water was more of a dunk. Not enough flavor because the soda water was too much. The view was nice as you are high up and can get the ocean breeze. The ambiance looks nice, and they have a backdrop "corona" sign. Music was just getting set up as we were leaving, but they do have live music. The staff were very nice, but seemed very inexperienced (not knowing drink names, etc.). The kitchen was SLOW AS MOLASSES. Took sooo long to just get the appetizer and soooo long to get our food, we asked for our check as soon as the food came out. Food: 2/5 - not good food in anyway Ambiance: 5/5 - great beach restaurant feel Service: 3/5 - friendly staff, but terrible tables, and terribly slow paced

Santucci's is known for their original square pizza. They have an indoor and outdoor seating…read more I sat in their outdoor seating area for my visit. A lot of reviews talk about the lack of service. Our server was very attentive without being too much. I could see if the place was busier how people would complain about the service. I did notice that Santucci's has events most days of the week. We ordered calamari and two personal size pizzas. The calamari was crispy and was seasoned well. The personal pizzas were very big. We ordered a white pizza and a pepperoni pizza. Both pizzas were good. I would give them a 8/10. The white pizza had a cheesy bread taste. Which you would either love it or hate it. The pepperoni pizza was good, but the layers are different from what I am used to. The sauce is layered on top then the cheese and the pepperoni. So if you like a more cheesier pizza this would not be an option.

Mamma Lena's in Ventnor is one of the most incredible Italian restaurants I've been to recently…read more They're located right off the boardwalk on the first floor of a condominium building so you'll have to do street parking since there's no private lot. I love that they're BYOB and you'll have a view of the pool and the ocean from a distance. Service was outstanding. It was perfectly timed and so personable. They provide complimentary bread with a delicious olive oil topped with crushed red pepper. To start, we split the Caesar salad and this was one of the best we've had in a while! It was cheesy and had the right amount of dressing without being too overpowering. They added olives and freshly made croutons that gave it some extra texture that I enjoyed. For my entree, I had the milk fed veal chop served Milanese style which was nice and light exactly how the server described it. It's like a caprese salad on top of a battered and crisp bone in chop. The balsamic was so tasty and they put a very generous amount of mozzarella on top. This was 17 ounces so I couldn't finish half of it but it still tasted great leftover. The star of the evening was the chef's specialty dish: the Pork Chop Agro Dolce. It's a center cut bone in pork chop topped with carmelized onions, a hot cherry pepper & capers in a sweet & slightly sour sauce over a candied sweet potato which tasted just as amazing as it sounds and looks!! I was dipping my veal chop into this sauce because it was absolutely incredible!! I don't think I've ever had a better pork chop in my life. It really puts others to shame. Unfortunately we didn't have room for dessert, but I'm already looking forward to my next visit here to try some pastas and seafood. They also had special items that I'm super curious about! Highly recommend this place!

It was delicious. we also had eggplant Parmesan appetizer, $30!!!!, which was delicious and then we had the tuna tartare, which was also very good. The restaurant was very pricey. The atmosphere is nice, but when you look out the window, all you see is a pool you don't see the ocean. It's a restaurant that I would recommend but be aware of the cost and the spiciness.
