Seafood pasta
Dasle K.

Loved our meal here! Came here with family and it was a cozy, yummy Sunday evening meal. The pastas are on point! Really great flavor, well cooked, and delicious all around. Attentive service, even with a private party happening upstairs. Overall, really enjoyed our meal here and would love to come back soon.

Gnocchi

Wow! Authentic Italian food for a fair price and located right in Suffern. This was my first time eating in and not getting takeout and just as delicious as my takeout has been. First off the bread they bring to the table is so soft and fresh I could've eaten the entire plate myself. The bread is paired with a delicious bruschetta. My gnocchi was delicious I opted for vodka sauce rather then Bolognese. So fresh and not super filling which was perfect. The vodka sauce was delicious and not heavy like most. The chicken francese was perfectly crisp and flavorful. Our server was super friendly and accommodating. We were fairly full but ordered a lava cake to share which was phenomenal. It was very nice of them to put our dessert on the house when we asked for the bill. I will definitely be back to Da Nina's cozy Italian restaurant.

Chicken Parm - yum!

We thought we were going to have Mexican, with my grandson Jake, but it wasn't open. I am kind of glad that it wasn't! This was an amazing meal - probably on of the best I've had in a while (I mean, like in a restaurant!). We decided not to have appetizers - even though our waiter let us know it might be 15 minutes. We hadn't seen Jake in a while and chatted - while enjoying fabulous bread with bruschetta. We then went for me - chicken parm which was just right - the red sauce (chef's kiss!). Jake had the lasagna special and Wayne was delighted with the Veal Piccata that also had perfectly cooked vegetables as a side dish. I really wanted to take the leftovers back in the camper, but... We also then decided we needed dessert -I went for an Irish Coffee, Wayne a creme' brûlée and Jake a chocolate mouse. It was not just a wonderful meal, but a fabulous time to spend with family! Service was impeccable, and the atmosphere was cozy - what could be better!

Pumpkin appetizer special. Can eat everything except for the stem. So gorgeous, so fun and so delicious

Had a great visit to Da Nina's while entertaining clients out of town a few weeks ago. Parking is tricky to navigate even on a random Tuesday night so keep that in mind when planning the timing. I was actually super excited to attend here being I had heard about this place forever but somehow our patches had never crossed. It's a bit dark when first walking in so I wasn't immediately finding our table of 20. Once everyone was there we ordered a copious amount of various appetizers. Everything from oysters on the half shell, fried calamari, salads with goat cheese their seasonal polenta stuffed pumpkin. Everything was superb. The one appetizer we all agreed we would not order again were the muscles. Sadly they had little to no flavor. For my entrée I had a salmon special that came with roasted potatoes and broccoli. I don't usually love potatoes unless they are fried (as an a french fry) and then it doesn't taste like potato. These however were the best roasted potatoes I've ever had in my life. Super crispy on the outside and soft in the middle and ridiculously good flavor. Other entrées that people enjoyed were the lasagna (huge), chicken Parmesan and the stuffed shrimp. Our waitress was attentive and fun. Since visiting I have now recommended Da Nina's to several friends in the area for a couples night out or time with friends and family.

Chicken Marsala

Ate here on my way to Vermont earlier this year. Food and service were amazing. Portions are large. Will definitely stop here again.

Marcellos was the best restaurant Suffern ever had. Da Nina used pork for veal. The fish special was made with frozen fish. You could tell first bite. The staff and owner are amazing. They need to remember marcellos and do Italian right. Too much frozen foods

Tried Da Nina's for the first time this week for Suffern's Restaurant week. The service was great. The food was tasty. My only complaint is the vodka sauce was so watery. I usually prefer a thicker sauce. But otherwise my salad was delish as was the bruschetta side they brought out with the bread. The penne was tasty, as was the breaded chicken. I would definitely return.

The ambiance is like stepping back in time somewhere in Italy. Greeted by the smiling owner, I instantly fell at home. You are missing out if you do not stop here to eat. We started with the mozzarella, tomatoes and prosciutto ham. I didn't think that something so simple could be so delicious, they also brought balsamic vinegar and olive oil along with it. Mozzarella was smooth and creamy and the prosciutto was soft and melted in my mouth. Also brought to the table was bread and bruschetta, saying it was delicious does not do it justice. The combination of bread and tomato brought my taste buds alive, my mouth was happy and so was I. I would have been happy just eating that, however we had also ordered the Pollo alla Donna Ana, a Chicken cutlet topped with prosciutto, fontina cheese and mushrooms in a Madeira demi-glace sauce. Visually it was a sexy plate of food . Putting it in my mouth was even better. There are no words to describe the symphony that was with each bite. Of course since I was drunk on the delicious food, we decided to go for desert and coffee. I ordered the Creme Brulee and my husband ordered a decaf cappuccino, both just a delicious and the rest of the meal. Cappuccino was better than any Starbucks coffee my husband and I have ever had. My husband and I ordered other deserts to go because we couldn't decide on just one. If you are looking for the best Italian food in Suffern, NY, this is a must stop place . My only disappointment is that I cannot go back tomorrow, we leave town in the morning. I seriously considered cancelling my flight to have one more night to eat here. It truly is a hidden gem.

While most items are high priced, I usually order a few appetizers. They make 1-2 meals because the servings are generous.

Fantastic food. Great place to get together with family and friends. Lively atmosphere.read more

Sangria's has been a go-to for us for years for good tapas and sangria, but we've now had issues on…read moreour last two visits, and this most recent one was especially frustrating. The food is still great. We had scallops, chorizo, brussels sprouts, and a flounder ceviche special. Everything was delicious. The ceviche in particular stood out -- fresh, well-portioned, and nicely "cooked" in lime juice. The sangria is still a highlight too. A big carafe, no ice watering it down, served with glasses full of fruit. The problem is the service. They had two servers and one bus person, and it showed. Everyone seemed to be scrambling, and it was hard to get a moment of attention to ask for anything or even be heard. Our food came out in pieces -- three items, then a long delay, then another. The last dish, calamari, never came. When I tried to tell the waiter we didn't want it anymore if it was forgotten, he didn't listen and insisted on bringing it anyway. We ended up waiting even longer, which just made the experience more frustrating. To top it off, they're now adding an operating/service fee (around 3-4%), which wasn't clearly communicated and just showed up on the bill. It's disappointing because the food is still very good, but the service issues -- and now the added fees -- are taking away from the experience. After this visit, we'll think twice before coming back.

My husband and I were in town for a friend's wedding. We stayed at the DoubleTree by Hilton hotel,…read moreand saw this restaurant attached/affiliated with the hotel. We decided to check it out for Breakfast. The seating is really unique, all with rounded "C" shaped white booths. There weren't many people in the restaurant (only one other group of people), so the hostess (who was also our waitress) told us to sit wherever we would like. The menu is a little limited, but that is to be expected. The waitress (Jodi) informed us that they just revamped their menu as of last week. Jodi was super kind, very friendly, and went above and beyond for us. She always made sure to top off on our coffee/juice/water. She also gave us a lot of extras (free of charge) which was very kind and appreciated! I was pleasantly surprised by my french toast's presentation (it looked/tasted delicious!) The only minor complaint I have is that there were a lot of small fruit flies/gnats flying around the table/during our meal. Jodi even told us we could fill up our coffee before we left with to-go cups (which we did since we weren't checking out for another hour or so). She was the best!!

Let's talk about heaven…read more... This is it. If the owner ever opens a sit down restaurant I want a standing reservation for the rest of my life. From the pizza to the fresh mozzarella to the cook at home porchetta there has never been a miss and I am a critical foodie...but my god...everything is delicious. We picked up a porchetta for the holiday and a hush fell over the table...every bite was succulent and cooked to perfection which was lovely because my husband took point and was able to easily handle it from the instructions. Now the bad. (Entirely unserious) Oh. The bad is that the young man at the counter didn't physically twist my arm to get 2 orders of EVERYTHING. The Cacio e Pepe fritters are life changing I would eat a bowl the size of my head and then a dozen of these fried bites of heaven. HEAVEN. He was too nice he should have told us to buy more We love the ability to grab the nectars and imported beverages by the single or 4 back, the garlic bread is absurd, the mozzarella sticks are soooooo creamy dreamy and the meatballs? Don't tell my mom...the reigning champ has been dethroned by Angelo, the angel we all needed because this man can COOOOOOK.

This is truly an amazing place with the most authentic southern Italian food I've ever seen - even…read moregiven Arthur Ave and other places in NYC. Tiny, take out, Neapolitan style pizzas are as good if not better than some I've had in Naples and I travel there frequently on food missions. Their sandwich's are more Italian American but made with the best ciabatta or semolina I've had here and with over the top quality ingredients. I'm still stunned by the authenticity and quality of this place.
