For the last five or six years, we always get "Pizza Gane" for Christmas. Known to some as Pizza…read moreRustica or Easter Pie. We used to get it locally in Guttenberg, but lately it's just as not as good. Scrambling, we found Muriale's in Lyndhurst. I called a few days before Christmas, and they were able to put one aside for me, and available for pickup December 23rd. The place is barebones, but full of good looking food. The Pizza Gane was large, and we were able to make three meals out of it, and share a hunk with our neighbor. When we picked it up, the kid told us that anytime we want one, let us know. Crisis averted !

I checked out La Venere today with my husband and parents being it's a local spot with great…read morereviews. To start: there's a small parking lot in the back but otherwise appears to be street parking. Both of our cars found spots in the lot since we got there a touch before 5pm. When we got in there, there was only 1 table of two people occupied but we were asked if we had a reservation which we didn't have. Admittedly, it was a bit of a last minute decision to go out so it completely slipped my mind to look to see if I would be able to reserve something but it was before 5pm so I'm surprised we were met with such resistance. Luckily, they were able to take us with warning we would need to be out by 6:45. For reference we left at 6 since we only got entrees. The place itself is somewhat small and has a little covered patio which saw had some tables. It's no frills and the menu wasn't all that extensive. I swear there is more of a menu on their Slice app for takeout ordering. Bread was placed on the table as well as a water pitcher. To be honest, I didn't think the bread had much flavor and my husband and parents agreed. We were pretty hungry so we did finish it (even when bread isn't great, it's still good in my book) but we weren't offered any more than the first basket. All of our entrees came with salad which were typical pizzeria salads-not bad, not amazing. My mom and I both ordered the Chicken Avellino (chicken breast sautéed with chopped red onion, red peppers, sliced hot cherry peppers, shitake mushrooms in a white wine sauce with a touch of plum tomatoes) which came with roasted potatoes. I'm not the biggest fan of spicy but I thought I could just take off the sliced hot cherry peppers and be okay. Wow was I wrong because the entire dish had a kick to it. Even my mom who gravitates towards spicy food admitted it was hot. That said, the quality of the chicken was phenomenal. It was thin sliced and very good. My husband very much enjoyed his Scaloppini Marsala and my dad liked the Pollo Francese but did wish the sauce was a touch thicker. I will say I think the quality of the food served is very good but the portions are not plentiful. I'm guilty of always taking home and making another meal or two out of what I get out somewhere but all 4 of us cleared our plates. At a $30 price point I just wish there were larger portions.

The food I ordered was a Chicken Parm Sandwich and a order of mussels. The mussels were fresh and hit the spot, the tomato marinara was so tasty.Nice thin slices of fresh garlic I would give the mussels a 7.9 I also ordered a chicken parm sandwich.The bread was nice and fresh there was a good amount of chicken and the chicken wasn't overcooked. I hate overcooked chicken. The issue I had was the sandwich itself was to dry for my liking ,not enough marinara sauce. In fact there was very little. I will give the sandwich a 7.1, Room for improvement. I was lucky I had the mussels sauce to dip in with. Pricing was average cost about 28 dollars. That's what places charge these days. Parking is weird ,they do have a lot on the side to park in. Enjoy fellow eaters.

Came here for mother's day this year and was happy to see there was more spacing between tables for a 7pm reservation. Staff always remembers us and greets us warmly. Started with asparagus salad, which is my absolute fave, and clams oreganata. Ordered tilapia francese with shrimp served with veggies and their awesome red potatoes on the side, fettuccine bolognese, pasta di giorno (fresh pappardelle, shrimp, scallops, asparagus, shiitake mushrooms, tomato, with vodka sauce), and pasta Gelone (rotini, chicken chunks, shiitakes, and vodka sauce). Holiday menu today, but still plenty of options- more than most places offer. Finished with a limoncello cake slice, warmed brownie with vanilla ice cream, cappuccinos, and an espresso. Portions were huge and could easily feed 2 people per dish and came out and remained piping hot! It's BYOB, but if you forget, the Liquor Shed is right up the street. If they ever have tripe on their specials for the night, absolutely go for it and I saw others ordering osso bucco and the meat was enormous! The mussels are always a great option as well!
