I'm always looking for restaurants staffed with creative chefs who think outside the box. The menu at Villaggio Iccara told me this was going to be one of those hoped for experiences. Items such as Spaghetti Positano (Sautéed manila clams, artichokes, sausage, Pinot Grigio & garlic sauce) under Pasta selections & Pistachio-Crusted Chicken Breast in a Dijon-Thyme cream sauce with Risotto offered a series of new taste treats. After due consideration, we opted for 2 forms of Bruschetta - one the standard w/ chopped tomato, garlic & basil & the 2nd w/ Caponata. Both were good, but I especially loved the piquant flavors of eggplant, & pickled veggies in the latter. My husband's dinner choice was Chicken Marsala w/ pasta which he declared a winner - its flavor actually tasting of its namesake wine, rather than just some commercial bouillon cube. I was hungry for seafood & ordered Cernia Marechiari (pan-fried grouper served in puttanesca sauce w/ pomodoro, capers & olives) served w/ risotto. I would have been happier had my risotto been delivered on a separate dish, because the texture & flavor were lovely by themselves & not really enhanced by the Puttanesca Sauce - but that was a minor complaint easily rectified. In the future, I'll simply ask for the risotto to be served separately. Overall, the dish was very good. The restaurant was busy the night of our visit - both in its dining room & its pizza takeout department. Highly recommend.

This is a classic pizza restaurant that also serves many Italian entrees. The restaurant is not fancy and is usually crowded and noisy. Regular pizza and the Trenton-style deep dish pizza are good tasting. Various types of pasta can be ordered with a variety of meats, seafood and vegetables. The waaait staff is attentive.

Our family went to celebrate a special occasion. We were seated outside in a very makeshift patio. It was a cold, rainy day, and the wind was blowing through the sides and of the plastic sheets hanging as outside âwalls.â No more ne thought to tape them done until we suggested it as we were reallyfreezing. Our table was squeezed into a small platform with a tricky step down. The food was good, but we didnât linger too long because of our physical discomfort. We asked twice for bread and never got it. Very disappointing.I am disheartened about your experience and glad your food was good. Unfortunately Mother Nature did not cooperate with the day. During the spring / summer season the side panels are removed. The restaurant confirmed all reservations in advance mentioning the forecast would call for 100% rain and high winds if sitting in our patio. The restaurant staff made everything possible to accommodate with overhead lamp heaters and fire towers making the environment comfortable for outdoors dining as much as we could. We welcome you back Chef Salvatore Scarlata

This is a nice restaurant and nicer looking as well than their old space in Trenton. Much bigger and now with well dressed up busboys, the place was buzzing for meals. We came here for a pizza meal and got the big red with olives, pepperoni, and pineapple. Nick was trying to upsell us for more food but we were good. Pizza is still good and I believe still using the same oven imported from Italy.Hello, I believe you may have mistaken us for a different DeLorenzoâs... we do not have pineapple on our menu nor anything referred to as âthe big redâ. Our ovens are also not imported from Italy. We are DeLorenzoâs Pizza on Sloan Ave. in Hamilton NJ. (Near the AMC movie theatre)

We had a college event in the area for our daughter and enjoyed a perfect celebration dinner for our family and her close friends. It's BYOB and we brought a bottle of champagne to toast. The vibe was very comfortable and relaxed. We enjoyed the family style fresh garden salad and baskets of warm bread. We all enjoyed a variety of pasta entrees with vegetables, seafood and the oven baked lasagna. Portions were huge and prices very reasonable. Everyone was full and most of us took home enough leftovers for a lunch or two. No room for dessert. Our server was very friendly and efficient. There was a larger party nearby, but the room was divided nicely and we felt more private. The owner stopped by a couple of times to check on us and was very kind on the phone when we spoke ahead of arrival. We had a very nice time and will definitely be back.

Who would have thought our friends at Cafe Antonio could improve what's already Bucks County's best Italian restaurant?Adding a bar and an awesome happy hour lets us visit in the current hot weather and eating a lighter meal.From 5-7 she and I sampled good wine and some of the best nachos and calamari we've shared in a long time. Excellent service from a friendly and knowledgeable bar staff made our visit worth repeating - which we did for the USWNT games against both France and the UK.We're close enough to walk, but another plus is they've solved the previous parking problem.On to support the US WNT in Sundays Final, and we'll be doing it at Cafe Antonio's!Thank You! We appreciate your kind words and positive review. Our team takes great pride in providing the best experience for all of our amazing customers. Thank you for your business and support, we hope to see you again real soon.

Enzo's is a charming neighborhood Italian-American BYOB that I would love to have in my own neighborhood. Two specials -- fresh soft-shell crabs and a rich short-rib ragu over tagliatelle -- tasted homemade and luxurious at the same time, simply presented but really delicious. The romaine in our family-style salad was a little leathery, but escarole and beans were an excellent green side. The dining room is small and, on a Friday night, jammed, but the pace of service was great and all servers friendly and helpful.Thank you so much! Hope to have you become a regular and serve you again soon.

It is HOT inside. Not quite as hot as it was outside today, Father's Day, 2018. We asked them to turn up the air conditioning, they did a little, but, I was sweating as I ate. I had Shrimp Scampi which was absolutely delicious. Had eaten there before and it was hot inside then. Don't expect anything fancy, ceiling tiles are warped and askew, there's an air duct hose just hanging there, it's an old building that could use some rehab inside. The wait staff was very good and friendly. No complaints other than the temperature. My dad enjoyed his meal, that's what's really important.
