Best Romantic Restaurants in Newark

My husband was very happy with his meal but I thought mine was blah. Possibly the least tasty meal I’ve ever had there. Since my husband was the birthday boy, I’m happy that he enjoyed his. My meal wasn’t bad, just not really good. And that is the standard I’m accustomed to at Caffe Gelato.

Lovely atmosphere and food and service were delicious!!

The lunch buffet was fabulous- the salmon was perfectly prepared and the crème brûlée was top notch. We celebrated my grandson’s birthday and he was most happy!

Great food and drinks and one of our favorite places for lunch; however, we always find the room temperature to be a bit cool and uncomfortable.

Made a reservation for Saturday night. We arrived 15 minutes early but were seated promptly at a booth as requested. There was a large group in their private room, and several large parties throughout the dining room. Our server, Erin, greeted us promptly and took our orders. She then brought us fresh sourdough bread and waters while waiting for our bar drinks. We ordered an Aperol spritz and Brio martini (dirty) from the bar. For our meals we ordered chopped salads (not on the menu anymore but still our favorite), Spaghetti Pomodoro and Chicken and Spinach Fettuccine Alfredo. Because of the large number of people in the restaurant we expected to wait longer than usual for our food and drinks. After our salads were served Erin stopped by every few minutes to keep us informed on the status of our meal. A few minutes later our drinks arrived. Both were expertly prepared and very tasty. There was a longer delay than usual between receiving our salads and the our entrees, but it was not excessive. The entire staff displayed great teamwork, helping each other and bringing food and drinks to all of the tables. Our entrees were perfectly prepared and delicious! We ordered items that we’ve eaten several times before, and the quality and taste of the preparations was the same as when the restaurant was far less crowded. Kudos to the kitchen for sending out consistent quality and taste across the board! We had a great meal with great service despite the crowds. Can’t wait for our next visit!
