I ordered their two specials, Banana Bread Latte and the Blueberry Cobbler for my friend and I. I also grabbed an everything bagel with cream cheese and a bagel with egg and cheese. I had the Blueberry Cobbler and it was SO good. My friend loved her drink and said she'd be going there frequently. We both liked our food -- though I wish the bagels were a little more toasty as they were too soft for my liking! The service was quick!

The atmosphere is very relaxing, with a comfortable yet slightly upscale atmosphere. The food and drinks are both amazing. Drinks are well prepared and the menu rotates with the seasons. The sangrias and specialty martinis are all so delicious and are expertly crafted. The pizzas are outstanding - toppings are all high quality and their weekly pizza specials are always unique and delicious. The salads, chicken entrees, and pasta are all excellent as well. I've never had a bad meal here.

Giuseppe's Pizzeria and Bistro is upscale in the best way. Dark wood, brick floors, pendant lights over a small bar. The lights are dim but the room is inviting and intimate. When we arrived, it wasn't empty, wasn't slammed. Nothing felt rushed. Everything moved at the right pace, giving us time to talk, time to savor, time to just enjoy being there. Even after we paid, no one hurried us out. The room was filling up around us, but we never felt it. Fresh plates for every course. Water refilled when it emptied (not before we noticed, exactly when). Every time we said thank you, our server said "of course" like she truly meant it. The focaccia came out warm. Tear it open and you see irregular holes. That takes hours, not shortcuts. They bring whipped garlic butter because it spreads easier, but the bread's good enough alone. Four meatballs arrived, tender enough they fell apart as I tried to work them through the sauce. Took surgeon hands. Pool the red sauce on your plate or spoon some over the top of each bite. Without it, they're bland. With it, they're quite good. The pepperoni pizza came out right. Char on the crust, pepperoni curling into little grease cups, cheese stretching six inches on those first bites. The sauce is light. The crust ends taste a little like char and semolina. I'm a sauce guy. Always have been. This pizza wasn't what I look for, but the people around us all looked happy to be there and with their food. Giuseppe's making the pizza his customers want. Fruit crumble for dessert. Fresh blueberries and peaches, vanilla ice cream. I enjoyed the peach side more than the blueberries, which was unexpected. The peaches were a little less sweet. The blueberries? Really sweet. Fresh and enjoyable. Giuseppe's fills up for a reason. The service is the best I've experienced in months. People were taking their time, talking, enjoying everything that was in front of them. They seemed like they knew they were somewhere special. They got it right.

Meghan was a bright star in a vast universe, she didn't miss a beat and was there before we even asked for something. The team around her cleared dishes, glasses and topped off the water. The food was amazing, from the appetizers of Charcuterie Board, Calamari, Warm Olives and Shrimp Mozambique to Entrees of Mixed Grill to the Portuguese Steak w/ Egg, Grilled Octopus, Clams and Pork and Fish and Chips all perfectly delivered at same time and everyone was "like this is the best service and food we have had anywhere in a long time.

The food was out of this world from the very first course with the homemade hummus pumpkin hummus by the way right straight through to the end of the homemade desserts, etc. it was just amazing. The customer service was impeccable. The girls never let the drinks get too low in your glass. It will be off the cocktail. The water was always filled. They cleaned the plates right away. She weren't waiting. The variety of proof was out of this world. It was a beautiful, beautiful restaurant. Everything was individual rooms quiet but we do other people together. Really felt like you were special cause you were in a separate room and it was decorated so beautifully. The first course was appetizers. We had the fresh pumpkin hummus with homemade pita bread and then we had a calamari dish with some hot sausage in it then they have these beautiful steamed mussels with homemade bread, focaccia bread and it has some nice hetbs and stuff soaking in the broth. Then we had the buffet is started out with some fresh Scully bread, as well as some fresh rolls and butter, and the first part of that was a beautiful assorted salad. That was lovely. I had two of those cause. I can't eat a lot of meat and then. The next dish was a ziti with homemade sauce and then they had a beautiful Parmesan risotto with herbs and the next one was like a Portuguese chicken with vegetables and tomatoes that just fell off the bone it was amazing and then the last dish was a a Portuguese dish of roasted pork with little neck clams the husband I got him that cause he likes that type of thing, but everybody was cooked so beautifully presented wonderfully. I didn't get a chance to take pictures at the beginning, but I did get some during the buffet and then and everything was just impeccable. The desserts were delicious. There was some beautiful custard tarts with fresh fruit, homemade macaroons, brownies, and some petty food type of desserts. But I would definitely go back there for dinner, but I know for a fact while waiting for my friends to come that many people had a very long weight. One couple came in there was only two people the wait was 45 minute wait and then somebody else came in and there was an hour wait I like a party of six people just took it in stride like they must've known this was happening and they took and came back. if I definitely come over again to eat, I would definitely do it under the reservation. I learned that just by sitting there waiting for my friends to come. But everything was definitely an 11 out of 10 I could not have asked for better meal food was just impeccable and everything just went really great.

I've seen on social media that people complained about the new location having mainly street parking - we both found parking easily on the street - quit yer b*tchin' people lol. Besides I believe they have a lot behind the restaurant that we didn't have to use but it's there if needed. We were the only ones there when we first walked in but more patrons came in as the night went on. Made our way to the bar and orders were flowing - one warning if you're sitting at the bar, it is an open kitchen so there will be alot of aromas flowing through and may get on your clothes but really it'll just remind you of how good the food was. Also, the barstools are not the most comfy - metal stools with no backing so after 2.5 hours, we were feeling a bit achy. We ordered way more than we should've but everything just looked so good! We got the croquettes (our absolute fave), the cauliflower, the pizza du jour (I think it had spinach, pepperoni, ricotta and garlic) and for entrees we got the fish tacos and the Orecchiette. Not one complaint - everything was divine. Croquettes were melty, smoky little nuggets of heaven and our favorites bites of the night. The pizza had a great balance of flavors and the crust was thin and crispy. We were so full but had a few bites of the fish tacos and pasta - the fish was cooked to perfection and the aioli it came with topped it perfectly. Pasta was different - had a scallion cream sauce that was a nice change up from your typical Alfredo. Don't sleep on this place - the street is busy being on a main road but so well worth the visit, I didn't catch our bartender's name but he and a few other servers were super personable and friendly - gave us just enough time in between meals and personal space to not hover. Absolutely will return!

The place was busy and was setting up for live music. We were seated very quickly. Would come back but wouldn't recommend the mozzarella bites to anyone ever.

But the restaurant itself was spacious and decorated nicely. We were sat in a dining area off to the front that did get a little noisy. Our waitress was friendly but not overly personable. However, she did get the job done. Another waiter brought over an extra chair that the party in the table in front of us didn't need so he left it right in front of my party so we couldn't get out. A little weird but not the end of the world. For dinner we started with the fried pickles. They were nice and crispy and portion was pretty generous for $10. We could have used more of the sauce though. My main meal was the chicken parm sandwich with tater tots. The sandwich I felt was a little small for the price tag. Chicken was cut into strips with some funky pieces and not overly crispy. Tater tots were an extra $2 but the container they came in wasn't an impressive size either. So, why three stars? The Trap isn't a bad restaurant but I felt that the price didn't justify average food. I think I'd come back again to try something else in the future though.
