    10 Garlic Parmesan Wings (~$23 combo including pizza)
    Aya E.

    Ordered: 1 Large Pizza + 10 Wings (~$23): regular pizza + garlic parmesan flavor for the wings Aya's take: Local family-run pizzeria with great customer service! We ordered this for pick up and it was ready when we arrived ~20 minutes later. The Large Pizza was definitely enough for 2-3 people and was well-made. Being from NY, I've had my fair share of good pizza and at this price point, you can't go wrong. I'm also a wing addict, so these Garlic Parmesan Wings had me floating! Crispy, saucy, and great with ranch. Great spot to try if you're in the area!

    Always great food and service. We love the eggplant, penne with vodka, chicken parm and pizza. The antipasto was great! The cappuccino was so good!

    Grilled Salmon
    Frankie R.

    Hands down 5 stars for food and service! This has quickly become a favorite spot for my family because of the quality of the food, the reasonable prices, and the A plus service. Portions are huge and quality is spot on. The salmon is a personal favorite of mine. I'm also addicted to the bread they make for the table. It's so soft and flavorful. Make a rez if you want to come on a weekend. And don't forget the wine - it's BYOB!

    I was in the area for something else and just searched for a close-by pizza place. This pizza is GAS. One of the best slices I've ever had (pepperoni, hot honey, chicken, vodka sauce). Will be back

    I order from here often their food has always been good, their service is quick and since I order to go can't say much about the ambience. Recently I order a Philly cheesesteak and it was delicious! I usually order the rigatoni vodka, the personal pie and a tartufu or tiramisu all the food has always been great in flavor and portion size. Definitely recommend!

    This is some solid za! Ordered some pizza for dinner because quarantine, duh. Delivery was pretty fast and the pizza was perfectly hot upon arrival. I love their regular pie, the sauce is just right. It's not sweet or too herby, it's nice. The dough was perfectly cooked and just enough crust for my liking. The Sicilian was perfect to me. I know some people will want an argument because they enjoy a thick Sicilian slice but I think zia's is great. It's not too doughy, a perfect ratio of toppings to bread. I would definitely order from here again. Their menu also looks extensive, the dinners look scrumptious. When quarantine is over I would definitely want to dine in and have some dinner here. They also have a nutella pie that looks like a small piece of heaven. Try them out!

    Fried Calamari
    Mia V.

    Here we go again! Calamari and mozzarella sticks arrived extremely cold. I'm actually scared to eat the calamari for fear I'll get sick. You can tell the cheese used in the mozzarella sticks is not good quality. It's oily and has a foul taste. I would call for my money back, but they always seem to have an attitude when you let them know they fell short.

    THEE Best around! Their pastas are made fresh and in house. Whatever it is that you order is…read moresucculent and Devine - a religious experience! Staff is amazingly attentive, professional and super friendly. I like that the Chef makes an occasional appearance making it a personable experience. Prices are up there but money well spent.

    I....don't really get the hype. This place was okay for the first half hour, but then the weekend…read moreevening crowd came and it got louder than free bottle service night at a club owned by Snoop Dogg. Lawd have mercy on my ears! The food was decent quality and largely portioned, but it was largely the same old Italian-American red sauce staples made by Spanish-speaking staff that you'd find at many "Italian" restaurants in NJ. - LK Caesar Salad: Eh. Limp lettuce, storebought dressing. No anchovies so not authentic, but I didn't expect any - Squid Ink Bucatini: Came with an okay amount of scallops and shrimp, and a skimpy portion of jumbo lump crab. Large, though, so I could have the rest for lunch the next day - Malfaldine Pasta: Points for the nice tomato cream sauce, but there wasn't much more to this besides the fun malfadine shape - Hen Of The Wood Mushrooms side: More like hen + shiitake. Lots of garlic flavor, but it was kind of drowning in oil. Service was okay, but like some reviewers have noted, it tended to skew young and green. Which was fine until things got LOUD and crowded--then we were waiting forever just to get extra water. I'd never been to Montclair before this dinner--but I have say I truly hope there's better Italian in this up and coming town.

    The atmosphere was very nice. There was a violinist playing during dinner which made the ambiance…read moreeven better. I didn't have time to pick up a bottle of wine but the restaurant had a local store that delivered directly to our table, which was super convenient! My friend and I ordered appetizers and a main course. The food was plated nicely but was really underwhelming. I ordered the tuna tartar. The tuna was fresh but lacked flavor. It really just needed some salt or something. I also had the 14oz steak which was pretty good because it had some salt on it however the steak came out precut and did not look like a $58 steak. My friend hated both of her dishes. She had the burrata and the lasagna. She said they both lacked flavor. We paid over $200 for our meal and I was actually disappointed that I paid so much money for such mediocre food. I gave 3 stars for the atmosphere and service. Our server Julian was very nice and attentive.

    Went here for a birthday dinner and the ambiance was very nice and festive…read more For appetizers, we got the goat cheese with nuts and prosciutto, the burrata, and the calamari. The calamari was by far the best. It was crispy and thick and seasoned well and the sauces were delicious. There were some fried onions in it that were flavorful too. The goat cheese was okay, it felt like the flavors did not all go together. The burrata was very fresh and the starter bread is great too. For dinner we got the pork shank which I think was a special, the mushroom ravioli, the eggplant pasta with red sauce and the branzino special with veggies and a sauce. The mushroom ravioli tasted a little like mush to me and I was not a fan of the mushroom flavor. The eggplant pasta was delicious and it came with burrata that melted nicely into the pasta. The pork shank was tender and delicious. The branzino was the star for sure, it was flavorful and delicate and paired well with the sauce and the veggies. For dessert we got the pistachio tartufo and the tiramisu. I didn't think the tiramisu was very special but it wasn't bad. The tartufo was okay. It tasted like a pistachio chocolate ball inside of pistachio ice cream. It was also incredibly small for the price. Our waiter was fantastic!!! Great person who made our experience extremely special. I don't know if I would come back, maybe for the calamari and a drink. Some of the food is amazing and some is not that great.

    Quality food! It is on the pricey side but the food did not disappoint!…read more Service could have been a bit better, however, I would still recommend! The food is absolutely worth it. Presentation was amazing! It was a whole vibe!

    Let's start by saying our server Matthew was incredible. He was observant, on top of everything,…read moreand had high awareness of the kitchen being behind and slow. We really didn't care about that as we were enjoying our wine and each other. Matthew alone 5 stars! This was our first time eating at pastaRAMEN and we had heard a lot of mixed reviews. The pictures on-line make it look like a fancy place so we did dress up. When we arrived we quickly realized it's not what they advertise and what's in the pictures as it's actually a small run down dive spot. The biggest attraction must be its BYOB as the line was out the door with people holding 2-3 bottles of wine and beer. We were really hopping for the food to be great! Unfortunately we were disappointed causing the 2 star review on food alone. The quality and freshness was poor and everything was soaked in multiple sauces. We had the Cucumber salad that should have been called the pickle salad as there were more pickles than cucumbers. Also the calamari which is hard to mess up but they somehow did with 3 different sweet sauces on it. Next we had the Ramen which they are known for and it had Fried Chicken in it??? It was frozen store bought chickens they warmed up. The last thing we ordered was the black cod, this could have caused us to get food poisoning!! One bit each and we both had to take a sip of wine quickly to get the taste out of our mouths. We couldn't even take a second bit. They did give us free dessert because everything took so long which was very nice but that was our great server Matthew. Dessert was good! Another side note the bathrooms were absolutely disgusting with pee on the floors and all over the toilet in both bathrooms. We did have a good night because we brought a very nice bottle of wine. Too bad they didn't give you real wine glasses. It was more of a plastic cup. I don't see us ever going back.
