The pizza is what they are known for, and I wanted to try it. The thin crust was carefully done,but the overall flavor was just average, I thought. Everything was ok but not amazingly so- typical bar interior, friendly staff, semi- cold beer, but the kitchen was slow and all the tables were waiting. My pizza took more than an hour.Prices were slightly on the high side: salad, pizza, two beers and with tip youâre hitting $50. Free parking 2 hrs in city garage across the street.

After visiting this restaurant for a repast, we went back for dinner.This well established restaurant obviously has a large following. The hostess was pleasant and quickly seated us. The service was excellent. The hot antipasto for two was delicious and served quickly. I had the Cod fish dinner with asparagus, and my wife had the seafood with pasta. Both were very tasty. The dinner finished with cappuccino and almond cake.I highly recommend this restaurant along with their daily changing chefâs specials.

Upon entering the front door, I couldnât help but notice the pay phone of the wall. Once inside the restaurant, I was quickly greeted, then took a seat at the bar. Very casual, pleasant atmosphere, with soft quiet music playing. The tables are all cover in cloth linens. The draft beer selection is limited, but there are a couple of seasonal craft beer selections available. At the bar, I encountered absolutely the friendliest staff and other customers. Just ordering had me laughing out loud with the crowd. The food is delicious. Delicious lobster bisque, great portion for price. Great portion on eggplant parmesan. Definitely will be coming back.

We literally drive from Long Island to go here, this time we stayed at Crown plaza Edison, and spent the day at Long Branch, very nice.The Seafood Tower Special for Two, $39, includes Lobster, Tuna, Clams, Shrimp, Oysters, Fruiti de Mare. I was full just from that. Always love the Rack of Lamb, Veal Chop was just OK. I think maybe next time share an entree or just order 2 more apps. Never know what to order anyway, too many choices.And of course BYOB!

Went here recently for the first time and was very impressed!The place was beautiful and ambience very nice. The menu had excellent choices of traditional Italian food, great wine list, excellent bar with hard to find brands and highly professional service. Itâs a powerful combination and made for a very tasty and enjoyable dining experience!The entrees we selected included, veal marsala, chicken parm, grilled salmon, and scallops with grits. All were tasty, portion size generous, and received rave reviews.As a fan of bourbon, I was happy to see Angels Envy in the house ( very tasty and not easy to find). Manhattans were excellent and made with the big round ice cubes. This usually means a superior bar! It was!The restaurant also had a number of private rooms to celebrate special events and occasions. After our great dinner, I would be happy to have an event here!Definitely will eat here again!

The food is excellent and the staff could not be more friendly and accommodating. If you don't see what you want, ask and the chef likely can make it.

Pizza Time by far has the best pizza in the area. Only downside is there is no delivery. They do have a large dining area which is good. I have a toddler that is fond of tantrums so I tend to avoid dining out so that others can enjoy their meal. Delivery would be amazing for this pizzeria.

We visited for a quick lunch, and were not disappointed. The staff was friendly and attentive, and interchanged with one another serving us. The bread was warm and tasty, and they delivered another basket half way thru. There was a special lunch menu that looked interesting, but my one companion was looking forward to their famous shrimp parm hero, and my other friend ordered from the gluten free menu. Her ravioli were fine, but I thought a bit expensive considering the other menu items. The shrimp hero was good, just a little too seasoned for me. I would have liked some additional lighting, as it was a business lunch, and not a romantic dinner. However, I would recommend this restaurant , and it is BYOB, a real plus.
