This is everything a small, casual family restaurant should be. Incredibly friendly and attentive…read morestaff that is eager to please and make you feel at home in their boisterous Italian kitchen and dining room. To start, we were brought a generous amount of warm, toasty bread that was like the love child of pizza dough and focaccia. There is a lot of variety on the menu, but I opted for seafood - fried calamari appetizer is a nice portion to share, with mild, fresh tasting marinara. And the Seafood Combo is a good mix of jumbo shrimp, mussels, calamari, and a few clams. It is not typically spicy, but I requested fra diavolo style and they gladly obliged. To be honest, the linguine was soft and overcooked for my liking, but the flavor was great, price was reasonable, and portion was big enough to have some leftovers the next day. The sauce combined with the seafood juices may have been even better the next day! Gnocchi w/ pesto was delicious, though a bit too much of the same thing - would be great shared for a family style meal. Most entrees are also served with soup or salad. Didn't try the soup, but salads were a nice option. And they brought us an unexpected order of zeppole to share, which was so kind and nice way to end the meal. With a little restaurant like this in your neighborhood, you may question why you would ever step foot in an Olive Garden, Bertucci's, or similar chain restaurant ever again. Note, there are a few quirks. Water offered in paper disposable cups, and don't expect an itemized receipt. While they do accept credit cards, they offer discounts for cash payment.

I missed lunch and stopped for a quick slice today, and really should have known better, because…read moreAnthony Franco's Pizza pretty much sucks everywhere you go. I ordered a slice of Margarita, which was $5 and was lukewarm when taken out of the oven. Almost immediately, I bit into a large piece of garlic, which was buried under the cheese and sauce. I finished the slice and was able to remove other large chunks of garlic. The garlic taste was overpowering. I like the flavor of garlic, but I don't want to eat it, and I don't want the flavor to obliterate what I'm eating. For this, a huge thumbs down for Anthony Franco's of Sparta. It just reinforces my opinion that their pizza is terrible, regardless of where you go. I was thankful that I had a small bottle of Listerine in the car. Stay away from this place.

Despite not being piping hot, it was tasty.

We stopped in for an early dinner, and the thin crust pizza did not disappoint: crispy, crunchy, and full of flavor. The hot vinegar chicken was also excellent. Nick and Mike, the owners, couldn't have been friendlier. They took the time to come over and chat, which really elevated the experience. You truly couldn't ask for better hospitality. If you love Thin Crust pizza this is a must try!!

We were seated quickly and Anthony, our server, stopped by right away with menus, a bottle of water and glasses, and a tray of bread, olive oil, olives, and cheese. We hoovered up everything that he'd brought to us- the bread was fantastic. I mean- wow.... seriously good bread! We both ordered a pasta dish, I got linguine with bolognese sauce, my wife ordered a seafood penne dish. She had originally opted for the lobster mac and cheese- but they were sold out... :-( Being from Queens and transplanted to NJ as a kid, I'm very pasta savvy. The linguine was perfectly cooked- just a little bite. The Bolognese sauce was also on-point. So many NJ pizzerias think that mashing up a meatball and adding it to a ladle of sauce is ok.... This was the real deal. Both plates had huge portions, as well. We were both slightly disappointed- no bread, no spoon, no cheese. Anthony made his way back to the table and rectified those issues. More of that fabulous bread, ha ha! Look- I can absolutely say that i'll be back. Food was good... Place was nice...

If you're in the Sparta area, do not hesitate to enjoy a meal at Pizza One. If that's too out of the way, there are other locations in Wayne, NJ, and in Scarsdale, NY.

Happy Taco Tuesday in Sparta, New Jersey!…read more I told my friend that we should have tacos for dinner. She knew that Sparta Classic Diner had tacos on their menu, so she drove us there! The interior was really cute with an old school, country feel... and an indoor (artificial) fireplace! Service was efficient and friendly. Our server had down-to-earth hospitality! She knew to offer us takeout containers at the end of the meal because we were so full! I got the Fish Tacos, grilled. They came with a side of rice and beans - and sweetly tart, fried plantains. The moist fish was topped with fresh veggies and cheese! Very yummy! I finished all ofthe leftovers when we got back to the house! Great midnight snack! Hope you had a Happy Taco Tuesday!
