We came to Maggiano's Little Italy in Bridgewater to celebrate a birthday with a group of about…read more15-20 people. We called ahead, and the restaurant gave us a quote and helped us set up a prix fixe family-style menu with several options for each course, which made everything easy for a large group. The service was excellent, especially considering the size of our party. The food came out smoothly, and the staff was attentive throughout the meal. On to the food - The bread was incredible warm, soft, and so good that I ended up taking some home. Food highlights: - The calamari was crispy, tender, and one of the best appetizers we had. - The salmon was another winner. - The chicken parmesan was soft, steak, and other entrees were all solid and everyone at the table seemed happy with their meals. The biggest surprise was dessert. I expected the tiramisu to be my favorite, and it was very good, but the standout was the warm apple crostata (apple dessert) served with vanilla ice cream. I totally ate more of that than i should. It was absolutely delicious and ended up being my favorite dessert of the night. Overall, Maggiano's did a fantastic job accommodating a large birthday celebration. I'd definitely return for another special occasion.

We've been looking for a place to go for special occasions and it looks like we've found one. Benny was very gracious (we hated asking for the food to be re-heated but it made it even better) and we highly recommend giving this place a try. Prices aren't cheap but you get what you pay for (average price was around $30), and we had a really good time (and meal) so we're defintely coming back.

Answered our questions about the menu and gave us a run down of the specials.

Food is spot on and service is excellent. What more can one expect from any restaurant.! Dolce dolce dolce .. checks all boxes.

The sauce was tasty like in the past. For my entrée, I had the classic cheesesteak, which was offered on Thursday night. It was shaved ribeye steak with White American cheese, caramelized onions, and cherry pepper relish on a pizza roll. It also came with a side of fries. There were a ton of fries, and they were cooked nicely with a good amount of parmesan. The cheesesteak as a whole was solid. The roll was the key as it was soft and went well with the toppings. I just wanted more filling present. Everything was tasty but needed a bit more. I also tried cacio e pepe, and it was good, more peppery than I would have thought, but still solid. I also tried their pork chop special. They were nicely grilled with just enough flavoring. The pistachio tartufo was once again ordered, but this time there was Nutella present. I did not mind this as it actually paired nicely with the tartufo as a whole.

Upon entering, each guest is warmly greeted by the host / waitress as family and seated. Each table is served house made bread before the meal. The special of the night, pork rolls stuffed with herbs and cheese was hearty and wonderfully cooked. The plate was delicious, but at around $40 it was a bit pricey for the portion. There was a birthday while our party was dining and the owner led the restaurant in singing a birthday song accompanied by piano and followed it up by playing some classic Italian songs afterwards. The service was wonderful and each guest was personally greeted and thanked upon leaving the restaurant. It's clear that the restaurant is well loved by locals and the owner. If I was celebrating an occasion area I would likely come by.

Their attitude was so rude that I only ordered a slice of cheese pizza and a soda, even though I had planned to order a whole pizza. After one bite, I threw the slice away, took my soda, and ate at the restaurant next door instead. No customer should be made to feel unwelcome or discriminated against. The community should not ignore this kind of treatment. There are award-winning pizza places in Somerville and Raritan where customers are treated with respect and appreciation. I will never return to this place.
