    Chicken Cutlets with Garlic Sauce. Chicken was soggy.
    Emily E.

    I was visiting the area from out of town and happened upon Tero's accidentally. The very first thing I noticed when entering was that it was a Friday night prime dinner time... and there was only one other occupied table in the entire restaurant. I also want to note that the decor is very formal and stuffy with thick white table cloths. I also did not enjoy the food whatsoever. I got the chicken cutlets dinner with garlic sauce. The chicken was thicker than I expect for a cutlet and it was soggy and slimy. Both the rice and vegetables were bland and those are the two sides that come with most entrees at the restaurant. If I lived in the area, I would absolutely choose to cook my own food before spending money on the food at Tero's. Additionally, their food prices are extremely high due to giving you ridiculously massive portions. I would have appreciated the option to get a smaller portion for a cheaper price, because three whole chicken cutlets just seems excessive to me. The one star with this review is to shoutout the great service staff at Tero's. When I expressed not liking my food they tried to ask if there was anything they could do to help. They were as kind and understanding as possible.

    One of my family's top restaurants to go to together, everybody's always happy with their meal and the service! I love the salmon with yellow rice, potatoes, and veggies! Drinks are always good too.

    Sirloin Portuguese style steak topped with smoked ham and eggs!!! AMAZING

    Our cousins brought us here and we were not disappointed!!!! The food was delicious!!! All the dishes were so flavorful, the grilled octopus was perfection and our steaks were perfectly cooked and also wonderfully flavored! The establishment was spotless and service was impeccable ! Thank you for a wonderful experience.... Oh and the espresso and desserts were a great way to end our amazing meal!!!! P.S. there is no way you could ever give this establishment less than five stars!!!

    Always a great meal. Lunch specials are fantastic! Had steak with egg with vegetables. Finished with a cappuccino! Service was fast and always inviting.

    Paella Valenciana
    Pete B.

    After reading a few of the most recent comments, I was extremely hesitant about coming here. Nevertheless, I had such a craving for paella, I decided to roll the dice. To start off with, we ordered the fried calamari. My wife is always nervous with this item when we go out because it's either really good or really bad. This was really good. Not chewy at all and obviously fresh. I had to ask for another side of marinara but that's minor. The paella was excellent. Completely satisfied my craving. The portion was huge and this is coming from someone that can eat. I took a little less then half home. I got the paella Valenciana. Over loaded with seafood and chicken. My wife got the skirt steak and she said it was very good. I didn't try it, so this small segment is hearsay. To accompany our meal, we had a pitcher of sangria. The sangria was average. We've had better but it definitely wasn't one of the lower rung sangrias we've had. Service was on point. Very attentive and accommodating. I know there's a lot of negatives posted on here, but our experience was completely the opposite. Definitely on their A game when we were there.

    Lobster bisque

    What a hidden Gem!! At first you walk in and the restaurant looks antiquated and definitely needs a facelift but you soon forget about it when food comes out The food is full of flavor and the portions are huge so be ready to eat and still have leftovers to take home We had lobster bisque Octopus which was amazing and really want to know what was in the sauce... a hint of spiciness but not over the top We had the Delmonico steak and lobster tail w crab meat for lunch although the steak was a little fatty it was delicious and to be fair the waiter did warn me about the fat Overall amazing little spot and will definitely be back

We had a large group, and they seated us at 2 separate and crowded tables in the side room, which was less than ideal (with a reservation). It also got really hot because the room was packed. They were pushing us to order everything family style, but everyone wanted to order individually. The two of us weren't super hungry, and asked for our entrees to be on a separate check before ordering, which they would not do. Since I knew we were going to end up splitting the check with the one table, I ended up getting a more expensive entree to make up for the apps and drinks we weren't having (I already had a drink from the bar and my husband doesn't drink). I settled on the special lobster carbonara (which I think was $75). Good, but overpriced. My husband had the filet mignon - it was cooked as requested but we prefer more seasoning. A friend passed her grilled scallops over to us to finish - I took one bite and it tasted like ammonia. I discreetly spat it out. For her sake, I hope the rest didn't taste like that. The atmosphere was loud and hard to have conversations. They did a conga line around the restaurant later in the evening. Not really my scene. Service was slow and it didn't seem like they could handle big groups, even when split up. We ended up staying here for about 3 hours. We ended up leaving before we were even offered dessert. Also, keep in mind they have valet parking.

The restaurant when you walk in has a very nice bar area and we were sat in the room just next to it nearby with an electric fireplace wall. It was in the middle of the week and we had a reservation, but it was not crowded at all. However, the server took a very long time to come to take orders to let us know about any specials, and we on a number of occasions had to ask for extra bread or more water. That was highly disappointing. Made the reservation based on Yelp reviews. However, in our experience, we did not have as satisfactory of an experience. members of our party ordered filet mignon, ribeye and short rib, and CB chicken scarpariello, and rigatoni bolognaise. We ordered a number of oysters on the half shell, the buffalo mozzarella, some fried calamari, and Tuna tartare to start and baked clams. Ordered an old fashioned but was too sweet. Pappardelle with large, meaty scallops was the standout. The Steaks were cooked to medium rare and rare as requested. Daughter enjoyed the ravioli. What wasn't as enjoyable and overdone was the rigatoni. The orrechiette with broccoli rabe and sausage was fine but needed healthy sprinkle of cheese for flavor. We brought our own birthday cake from Gencarellis in nearby Bloomfield which was appreciated and ordered some cappuccino and espresso. They already included a 20% gratuity in the bill which was fine for a large party but based on the actual service felt like overtipping.

When I told my mom where we were going her reaction- "omg that place is still around?!? It use to be excellent back in the day!" Well I am happy to report this place is just as good today as it was during my mother's heyday. I decided to get a few oysters and clams to start off with and everything was just so fresh. As an entree the Seafood in a spicy red sauce was easily one of the best I have had in a very long time. There was a generous amount of seafood within the dish, the sauce I swear I could just drink it out of a cup and the pasta was cooked perfectly. My husband got the bbq ribs which I didn't try but you could see how they just slid right off the bone and he couldn't stop talking about how good they were. We ended our meal with some strong espresso. I enjoyed how it is a very casual atmosphere with a nice bar area that had a few TVs to watch some sports games. No need to dress to impress. The service was a little bit on the slower side but the waitress was very nice. The man who brought out my oysters, I asked him which were the east coast and which where in the west coast oysters, along with asking him where in the west coast my oysters were from and he couldn't tell me. I just think a place should just know these things is they are selling them. Nonetheless we still really enjoyed ourselves and can't wait to return.

They do have coffee so that's a plus. And the coffee is made with a French press. Very tasty. They have a good menu. Something for everyone. We started off with the guacamole app and clam chowder. The guacamole is plentiful and tasty. Also the salsa was delish too. My table patrons didn't like the clam chowder. They said it was too salty. For the mains we ordered the roasted chicken, hot chicken sandwich and the Cajun seafood alfredo The Hot chicken was divine and huge. You won't be disappointed with that one. Good amount of spice. The roasted chicken was lemon rosemary jus was delicious as well. I ordered the pasta which was supposed to come with jumbo shrimp and andouille sausage. As soon as I received my dish I asked the waitress where the sausage was, she couldn't answer but went to get her manager. The manager said normally it's under the pasta. Still, no sausage in the pasta. They apologized and made the sausage and added it to the pasta. I wish that was the only issue. The menu states that it's a cajun Alfredo sauce and hate to say but this was just bland. Not flavorful at all. 2 waiters recommended it but I'm not sure why. I'd give it a 2.5 out of 5. The portion size was good but again no real taste. Overall this was a nice place. I just need to study the menu and read more reviews about what to order here.

We got our soup and shrimp cocktail as starters but literally 3 minutes later, our entrees were served to the table. Our entrees got cold while we tried to finish our starters. Please look to have the servers better time the serving of entrees AFTER the starters are finished. I had the New England Clam Chowder and the Prime rib. The clam chowder was tasty but lacked clams. They added andouille sausage to the chowder to give it a nice tasty twist but this should not have taken away from the amount of clams expected in a clam chowder. Prime rib was a good thick cut. But served warm and almost at room temperature. Not exactly how I would like my prime rib. Shoe string fries were tasty. My boyfriend ordered the Clam Chowder and Shrimp Cocktail as starters, followed by Cajun Sea Pasta and a bunch of side dishes - southern Coke slaw, black beans and rice and the loaded baked potato. Shrimps in the shrimp cocktail was good sized shrimp topped with old bay seasoning. The pasta was seasoned just right, very tasty and delicious. Cole slaw was crunchy which meant the Cole slaw was freshly made and not sitting in the sauce for too long. Loaded baked potato was of good size and baked to the right softness. Black beans and rice was the only side dish that was a bit too salty but went great when mixed with the baked potato. Overall, we were impressed with Angelina's services, friendliness of the staff and quality of the foods.

Rather than scrap the plan, we pivoted to Matthew's Italian Restaurant at the suggestion of one of the guys in the crew. What a great find.

The atmosphere was exactly what we were looking for, the staff was awesome, and most importantly, the food delivered. We came out swinging with Clams Oreganata, Meatballs, Stuffed Mushrooms, Mozzarella Carrozza, and two different types of Ravioli. Needless to say, the table filled up pretty quickly. For dinner, most of the crew went with either the Veal Parm or Chicken Parm. A nice touch is that they'll do the parm with vodka sauce if you want to switch things up. I went with the steak special and had absolutely no regrets. Dessert was on point too, but I'll leave a little something to your imagination.
