The restaurant itself is on a nice strip of stores and restaurants with street parking available. They have outdoor seating if that's your thing. Indoors is nice and there were plenty of tables and chairs. The drink cooler has sodas, teas, juice, sparkling water--a good blend of choices. Some of the sodas are Massa branded which was kind of cool. I personally got a Diet Coke, my bestie got a sparkling blood orange water, and her husband got the orange soda. For pizza, I got a slice of clams and a slice of carciofo. Clams was good, but the artichoke was tastier. Either way, the crunch and softness of the dough was out of this world. Dough REALLY makes the pizza and this was no exception. It was really perfect. Unfortunately, I don't live here in order to get this all the time, otherwise I would. This was FANTASTIC. We also got suppli which were also good. I do recommend these. Reminds me of something my mom would make when I was growing up. Service was fast and friendly. Nothing negative to say at all. Wish I lived here because I would get this weekly very easily. It's probably the best kind of pizza I've ever had.

Instead he just whined lmao so I made us a reason. I wanted to go to Sierra f0r mY biRthDaY tRiP t0 AcaDiA (3 years running) so I chose a spot near there based on Yelp. Very meta. It was our first time so I had limited expectations other than price. I was right lol. $38 dollars later... This place specializes in Roma pizza and my only barometer for that is all the influencers going to Italy and complaining that the pizza looks "different" than here in the US. The gag is it always looked good to me so I was hype to try it as Massa. It kinda gives focaccia pizza and Massa does some really nice flavors. The slices are set up almost like a bakery - complete with the panic/relief that sets in when the person ahead of you takes the last slice of crumb cake. But then you see a fresh pan coming out the oven. We got: -cremini mushroom -pesto -hot honey pepperoni (The Stevearoni I think and the one someone grabbed the last slice of before me) -diavola aka spicy soppressata. We split a beet, walnut, and goat cheese salad and a Diet Coke. It was so good. Crunchy, crispy, flavorful, and yes different. We loved it. The salad was fresh, perfectly dressed and bright. Overall Impressions: -clean aesthetic and actually just clean -great food -good seating This would be a 5 star experience (instead of 4.5) if the staff was more outwardly friendly. They weren't rude or anything but a hello and goodbye is what separates this place from my local spot that is 2 miles away instead of 15 and $20 instead of $40. We look forward to returning - not every week at these prices but at least once a month. Delicious!

I sat at the bar and was handed a short, simple menu. Service was exceptional the whole night, attentive without being overbearing. Started with the Caesar salad, deconstructed and nothing like the classic version. The dressing and nuts gave it a nice twist that worked. The meatballs were a mixed bag. Texture was spot on, and the basil added something nice, but overall they were bland. Needed more garlic, and I couldn't pick up the umami from the parm or the saltiness from the prosciutto. More of both would've balanced it out. The pizza was the real showstopper. Perfect char, perfect chew on the dough. The habanero pie with pork loin had just the right amount of spice, every bite landed. Overall, I'd go back, and next time I'm trying the truffle oil on the habanero

We started the night with drinks: the sparkling Cosmo, Cupid's Kiss, Sangria, and finally, an Espresso Martini. I highly recommend the Cosmo; it was just sweet enough, and the edible glitter made it so festive. As for the food, we started with complimentary garlic bread and oil. I could have easily eaten a dozen; the bread was soft on the inside with a perfect crust, and the oil had great Italian seasoning with a light hint of spice. For appetizers, we ordered the sausage and potatoes (which came with peppers, a nice touch), the Caesar salad, and truffle fries. For our mains, we tried the orecchiette, bucatini carbonara, mushroom and spinach gnocchi, chicken saltimbocca, and penne vodka with a chicken cutlet. The highlights were the bucatini carbonara and the mushroom and spinach gnocchi! Everything came out in a timely manner, and our waitress was super sweet and constantly checked in on us. I'd definitely say it's worth a visit if you're in the area!

I last reviewed in 2021, having been pleasantly surprised by their chicken options, though some way…read moredisappointed by the pizza. For awhile, I felt like I solved the master equation - extra sauce on the pizza ended up giving us a perfect pie that was always done right. Unfortunately, we've hit a pretty consistent wall of...well, inconsistency. The last three pizzas have come out with about a third of the crust folded up, as if the pizza was made too big for the box. Trying the extra sauce on the pizza trick, which was formerly the way to get a perfect blend of sauce and cheese, now results in a pizza that is nearly impossible to eat without a fork and knife. Going the opposite direction and keeping the standard sauce leaves you with a large-scale version of cheesy bread, but not the kind you find yourself wanting to dip in marinara on a game night. I also must mention that my "extra sauce" was once erroneously made extra cheese, and it was far and away the worst pizza I ever ate. So whether it's a new pizza maker, a bad new recipe, or just the inconsistency finally showing through, there's something about the recent experience that would have me turning to most of the other options in the area.

I picked it knowing the solid rep of Jessica's Cafe in Plainfield, so I can't say I was stunned to find out this was awesome - but given the expectations coming in, this probably even slightly exceeded them. Pretty cool. This was literally my first time in Fanwood, unless you count taking the Raritan Valley Line through here to Hunterdon County back in the day (I don't think it counts). The weather was a little iffy throughout the day, which I'm assuming played a factor in the town feeling a little desolate when we showed up. It reminds me a lot of the Newport neighborhood in JC - super, super gentrified. Maybe it's just the section where Jessica's is though, right across the street from the train station. We parked over there, not entirely sure if that was naughty or not, but given our outdoor seating, we easily could have peeped a cop or tow truck driver before anything terrible happened (I think it was fine, given it was a Sunday night). All that to say though, I'm not entirely sure where the ideal parking is if it's not at the train station. We were only in the restaurant for a minute (enough time to ogle a fridge or freezer of tasty looking meat to the right of the entrance), so I can't speak to the spiffiness of the interior. Even though rain was a possibility, it seemed worth the risk to stay outside due to the temps and large umbrellas. No regrets in that regard. We were seated promptly and ordered shortly thereafter, while also receiving some decent bread and butter with a bit of olive oil drizzle. Quite tasty. Somehow it's become an informal tradition, but if it's on the menu we usually get the Grilled Octopus. One of the better ones we've had. Nice and crispy (texture to me is the key to this one) and seasoned well. The accompanying potatoes were a nice touch to the proceedings - would totally get this again. A lot of the other apps looked good too, but someone accidentally made me birthday weenies on the grill earlier, so I couldn't get QUITE as frisky as I normally would. Both of us gave the lamb a long, hard look (and my chum wondered aloud about the ribeye special for the rest of the evening - possibly the one that got away) but I ultimately went with my classic Short Ribs entree. Delicious. Tender, flavorful and the perfect serving size. I was a little nervous that a puree versus mashed would mean the potatoes were too wet or liquidy, but not the case at all - they maintained their relatively solid integrity as far as I was concerned. I forgot to take a picture of dessert, but I got the Creme Brule. Also excellent, and at the perfect temp. I think there may have been a birthday musical accompaniment with that, but it's all a blur. Arguably just as good if not better was the service. Our waiter was super personable and professional, stopping by regularly and just added a hospitable touch to the meal that brought this to the upper echelon for me. Service is king, and it matters - you can't take for granted the ability of your server to essentially riff for two minutes on their menu knowledge, as well as just good-natured banter. Had that in spades. Coming back for sure - Womb Exit Anniversary or not.
