    Fusilli Alla Siciliana very good!
    Jennifer T.

    O Sole Mio is a gem in Cranford! They make excellent Italian food at very reasonable prices! That's why this place has so many regulars. The owner is so gracious and hospitable. It's nothing fancy inside, but if you love Italian food you will love this place. They make one of best baked ziti's I ever had! If you love baked ziti you have to order it here! The pasta pescatori is another excellent dish here to try as well. The food doesn't come out fast so be prepared to wait, and their servers don't speak English well so that can be a bit frustrating. It definitely doesn't stop me from coming back to this gem. I highly recommend O Sole Mio in Cranford!

    If you're anywhere near Cranford and craving real Italian food -- O Sole Mio is the move! From the moment you walk in, you can smell that incredible pizza aroma that lets you know you're in for something special. Their pizza is phenomenal -- crisp yet chewy crust, perfectly seasoned sauce, and that golden melt of cheese that hits all the right notes. You can tell this place takes pride in their craft. It's not just pizza -- it's passion baked into every pie! The rest of the menu is just as impressive. From classic pastas to hearty entrees, everything tastes fresh, homemade, and full of flavor. The service is friendly, the portions are generous, and the atmosphere has that cozy, family-run charm that makes you feel right at home. Whether you're grabbing a slice, dining in with friends, or ordering takeout for a cozy night in -- O Sole Mio never misses. Easily one of Cranford's best!

    Amazing lobster pescatora

    The food was absolutely outstanding--every dish was beautifully presented, fresh, and full of flavor. The ingredients tasted high quality, and it was clear that a lot of care went into every detail. The service was attentive, friendly, and the owner is always willing!!

    After spending the majority of the day on our feet, my friend and I were looking for a place to grab something to eat, and we decided to stop by and try this place. When we walked in, we were greeted immediately and taken to sit down, which was appreciated. We ordered our food and were pleasantly surprised by it, especially since we ordered with dietary restrictions and those aren't always paid attention to. The place itself is clean and cozy with casual vibes. Pros: - Food is great - Clean bathroom - BYOB (based on the couple we observed right next to us) Cons: - Space is small, so as they get busier, it gets packed and the space feels "tight" - Bathroom is located close to the register and by where the servers plug in orders, so it can get crowded in that tiny area - Servers seemed to prioritize other customers and we had to call their attention to us a few times Overall, the food made the experience worth it. Food was excellent, but I don't know if I would dine in next time. Might just choose to order and take it to go, instead.

    Giant portions!! This is fettuccine Alfredo and is about half what the original serving was!

    Super happy belly happening right now. The great is the food for sure. My son ordered fettuccine Alfredo and got a truly giant plate with no less than a lb of pasta and a half lb of cheese. The plate you see is after he ate it and we all had big tastes. One of the best of this classic dish I've ever had. The chicken francese was excellent and the pasta sauce for the side was awesome. Kids portion was huge too and the chicken parm sandwich was met with praise also. One star off for the very annoying plastic on the table cloths that sit on your legs and make them sweaty. The music is a bit loud for me. We hit the place when I think their a/c was out which was unfortunate but we u sweat and when things aren't perfect... especially when your food is fantastic.

    We've ordered takeout from here many times, but had not come in to dine in before. The owner was very gracious and hospitable. He went out of his way to make us feel comfortable. Our waiter Sammy was also great. Everything tasted good. Big portions. We were also entertained by "Billy the Kid" Priscoe, who is a regular there and makes the entire night enjoyable for every patron.

    Seafood Alfredo

    Such a hidden gem! The shrimp scampi was bursting with garlic and white wine flavor, and the shrimp were perfectly cooked. The seafood Alfredo was rich, creamy, and loaded with shrimp, mussels and clams -- seriously satisfying. Cozy vibe, great service, and generous portions. Will definitely be back! P.S. Francesco the owner came by introduced himself to everyone in the restaurant. Great guy and se

Unfortunately not today. The server seemed inexperienced and was not attentive to the customer's needs and when she was confronted , she didn't care. The Owner for some reason brought their children to the establishment and they were uncontrollable, yelling and screaming bumping into tables, not a good atmosphere for a restaurant. If you own an establishment, I would suggest hire a babysitter. To have children yelling and screaming, it kills the atmosphere. And ruins the experience. PLUS WE WERE SO CLOSE TO THE OVEN Where they make the pizza so they saw us waiting they LITERALLY served everyone else around us except for our table. Lastly when we were finally served, they only sent us one order MIND YOU only after we complained when we had 4 at the table who ordered and we were waited for said Orders for the past 35 minutes. I TOLD THEM NO...take it back please why would take one order after waiting that long..... That was the last straw for me, I asked for the check and left... No one said sorry and no one cared im hoping the color of our skin wasn't a factor but these days its not impossible. This was a very disappointing, disgusting and unfortunate experience. I will not be returning to this establishment nor recommend anyone to come.

I recently returned to Cranford for a visit and had to make "my pizzeria" a stop. Upon entering, I was greeted by new and friendly faces. I got engaged in a conversation with Dad of the owner, a man who grew up in the Bronx - where you could find great pizza when I was a kid. I am pleased to say that the new ownership is upholding the New York pizza standard well: if you want genuine NY pizza, this is a worthy stop. Manga!

    DoorDash Pizza Diaries - Calabria Pizza…read more Another dash, another slice--because if I deliver it, I have to try it. That's the rule. Calabria Pizza is one of those solid, no-nonsense neighborhood spots that knows exactly what it's doing. The pizza hits that sweet spot: a nicely cooked crust with just the right chew, sauce that's flavorful without being overpowering, and cheese that's balanced--not greasy, not sliding off the slice and ruining your shirt mid-bite (we've all been there). From a Dasher's perspective, orders were ready on time, staff was chill, and pickups were smooth--which already puts them ahead of half the places I visit. From an eater's perspective? This is dependable, classic pizza you'd happily order again on a random Tuesday when cooking feels like a personal attack. Is it trying to reinvent pizza? Nope. Is it doing the fundamentals right? Absolutely. If you're ordering through DoorDash or grabbing a slice in person, Calabria Pizza is a safe bet--and in the pizza world, that's high praise. Final verdict: out of 5 Reliable slices, good balance, and Dasher-approved efficiency. I'd dash it--and eat it--again.

The owner was friendly as soon as we walked in and told us it would be about 8 minutes for the pizza- super fast! I would be surprised if he even crossed the minute mark before it was in the oven. Great conversation with the owner while we waited, and learned he had a spot near Asbury Park before moving here and opening this location. They do some cool things like "2 foot slices" (for those days you only want a slice lol). Countless specialty pies if you are in the mood for unique offerings. A large cheese pie is less than what you would pay at a chain- that's a huge win win- support local! After getting our hot pizza, my wife and I knew 2 bites in that we would be coming back. Great flavor on the sauce and quality cheese. They cook their pies half in the pan and half on the stone and the crust is almost airy with just the right amount of crunch at the end. We loved talking to Joe about his fav spots in NJ and NY- and he is a pretty humble owner that gives flowers to the spots that he thinks are doing it right. Will definitely be back! Pro tip: Don't be embarrassed when Joe asks if you need a box for leftovers and you realize there are no leftovers!
