Oh yeah this is a place that you must try!…read more First of all it's not a lot of food so if you're the type of person who likes to eat a lot you might not be very satisfied here. But definitely a type of delicate dish that you would enjoy in every bite. The chef has different menus throughout the season and every single one has something unique and amazing to check. The homemade pasta with truffles was out of this world so delicious like everything else we try. Our waitress was so sweet and very knowledgeable in every dish she recommended. The atmosphere very nice but the only problem i found was that there's only one bathroom for a single person so that was inconvenient but besides that We love it!!

The restaurant is absolutely beautiful, and the oversized florals surrounding the main entry make for a gorgeous photo backdrop. The food was also beautifully presented and clearly fresh. The passion fruit mango mocktail was delicious and gorgeous, the side salad was simple but incredibly flavorful, and the homemade French fry potatoes were hands-down the star of the meal. They were so good that we ordered extra sides for the table because we were all still hungry after our mains, We visited on Mother's Day with a party of eight and left feeling underwhelmed overall. My mother-in-law struggled to find anything on the menu that appealed to her and ultimately ordered the beet pasta, which she found disappointing. Several of the entrees lacked the wow factor we expected, especially at this price point. When you're spending $235 on a steak, you expect a memorable dining experience. Instead, the most talked-about items at our table were the fries, the mocktail, and the salad. Many of us were still hungry by the end of the meal, which made the final bill even harder to swallow--especially considering we didn't order alcohol. We skipped dessert at Fiorentini and headed up the street to Charlie's instead, where we enjoyed delicious ice cream at a much more reasonable price. The service was friendly, the ingredients seemed fresh, and the presentation was beautiful. We really wanted to love it, but for us the overall value just wasn't there. Another annoyance was there's only 1 rest room and a mom went in to breast feed her child and 3 of us waited in line for 30 minutes.

The other side of the restaurant also had lunch guests as well, I am looking forward to returning here very soon, The ambiance and food was outstanding! We were served "family style." We started with the most delicious rice balls. Next came the tastiest meatballs with ricotta cheese. They also did an amazing job on the fried mozzarella sticks. These were just the appetizers. I couldn't get enough of the salad especially the dressing. Delicious! The main course of chicken parmigiana (melted in your mouth) risotto with corn and sausage and then penne with vodka sauce was awesome! Definitely a "return to" type of restaurant.

Highlights: Fried Calamari and meatball appetizers were great!…read more Mid-lights: The vodka chicken parm with rigatoni was good, but the chicken was a little too soft/soggy. Also the portions were a little small. Lowlights: The restaurant was a little understaffed, wait times for water, to take our order, to get our food was extremely long. 4 dishes ordered and dinner was 2.5 hours... Overall the food was good but pricey for what it was.

I read the reviews and called the restaurant to set up a "repast" for my family following my mom's "service". I spoke with Joe the owner to and requested he suggest a menu at a set price. Joe did not disappoint. Every single thing he suggested was cooked to perfection. All of this Italian dishes were very authentic and bursting with various flavors. Classy, delicious and 15 of us were served every dish pretty much at the same time. No waiting. Amazing servers!! I heard nothing but good things from my guests. Thank you Joe. Truly the best!!

To start,…read morethey bring out some ciabatta (?) bread, which was crusty on the outside but soft on the inside. For food, we decided to order a bunch of things to share: -Zucchini fritte (with lemon aioli dipping sauce) - this was thin and perfectly crispy but somehow not oily. It was addicting -Arancini - these were okay. Could have used more meat -Margherita pizza - can't go wrong with a margherita. I do wish the actual crust was thinner -Meatball & Co pizza (meatballs, sweet sausage, cherry peppers, tomato sauce, mozzarella & ricotta cheese) - same with the crust situation. The description also said cherry peppers but they also added jalapenos, which is not a big deal - just a call out. The sausage was alright -Seafood fra Diavolo (sauteed clams, calarami, mussels, spicy tomato sauce) - sauce could have used a bit more spice. They don't skimp on the seafood though. I was pleasantly surprised by the calamari, which can taste rubberband-y but that wasn't the case here -Tiramisu - tasted fridgey/supermarket-bought -Affogato - a nice way to end the meal. Made me wonder why I don't make more affogatos at home Overall, it the meal was fine. Is it something I'd crave for? I don't think so. Well, maybe except that zucchini fritte. I wouldn't mind ordering that again. Tip - BYOB (there's a liquor store across the street)

"It's the best Italian food in Jersey!"…read more I was sitting in a Chinese restaurant next to a nice looking Italian family when I overhead them talking about Volares. I figured they ought to know, so tonight I'm at Volares trying the food. It turns out, they were right. The food here is incredible. I live in Manhattan, so I don't know if this is the best in Jersey... but it's got to be near the top. I loved everything I had, and the whole restaurant from the person who greeted and seated me to the waiter--everything was an experience that I appreciated and enjoyed. Volares is definitely the best Italian place I've been in Jersey. You've got to try the veal. Incredible! Bravo.

Owner Andy introduced me to a fine three-course meal. Eggplant Rollatini: This appetizer was stuffed with ricotta cheese and smothered in a San Marzano tomato sauce. Each bite was pure bliss and it sent my taste buds to heaven. Gnocchi Alla Sorrentina: These bite-size homemade Italian dumplings are also mixed in San Marzano tomato sauce and topped with fresh mozzarella. It was soft and smooth on the outside with a pillowy potato on the inside. Cheesecake: To close out the meal, I explored the heavenly cheesecake. It was sprinkled with powdered sugar with a side of freshly made whipped cream. The raspberry drizzle added a nice touch. This dessert has one of the smoothest and creamiest textures. It's no question the pie and whipped topping go together hand in hand. While you dine, admire the arrangement of beautiful wall art along with a set of Satsuma vases. If you do not wish to dine inside, outdoor seating is also an option during the warmer months. Be sure to bring your favorite bottle of wine or beer because this restaurant is BYOB. As a bonus, Volare's has an enclosed indoor hallway which effectively keeps the cold air out during the chillier months. This was a flawless culinary experience.
