Great for fine wines

While pizza and pasta are just the tip of the Italian iceberg, there is a reason these two culinary staples are the most beloved exports from Italy. Enjoy our seasonal selection just steps away from where our expert pasta chefs and dough-slinging pizzaioli (pizza makers) create dishes before your eyes.

True that the restaurant has just opened and they are working out the kinks. The restaurant was behind in seating people w reservations. We were told that if you buy a bottle of wine in the shop ( while waiting) we could drink it in the restaurant. We were surprised when seated, that there is a $25 corkage fee, $10 off the regular fee because the wine was bought there!! That is a high fee in general and especially if the wine was purchased there.

While the food was delicious at this recently opened (to much fanfare) location in NJ, the experience and service was quite lacking. Even with a reservation you are made to check in at the same hostess stand inside the marketplace that others with who have no reservation/ are waiting making the experience chaotic. For some reason, you are asked not to use the entrance from the street which would be a much better experience, avoiding the crowds. The service was terrible...super slow, we had to repeatedly ask for an item we ordered first, juggling of dishes because they had not been cleared from previous course. The food, however, was great. Perhaps the experience and service will improve over time, but until then, not sure it's worth making a separate visit to Eataly if you are not already at the mall.

Very similar to the downtown location. We ordered the burrata, bruschetta , salmon crudo, and focaccia for appetizers and all came out fresh and delicious, the bruschetta auttanalle is seasonal and my favorite,, not your typical American bruschetta which came on soft and warmed bread . We ordered the tagliatelle bolognese, the linguini di mare and i forget what mine was called but it was the one with the lasagna sheets and truffle butter which was delicious and the favorite of the table. For dessert we ordered the tiramisu which came with quite the production and the cream on top was decadent. Price is typical for eataly so ignore the cheaps on here complaining about the price and portion size, it’s short hills and shipped Italian products. The portions were enough to fill and take home. Thank you Gabrielle for all your help! Great service.

Unfortunately we never got to eat. The food didn’t arrive. Couldn’t get a server or manager to help. We were forced to leave as were the people next to us. The service “kinks” are far from worked out.

I recently visited Eataly Nj expecting a high-end dining experience, but I left feeling disappointed by the service and staff training. For a place that boasts an upscale reputation, I anticipated knowledgeable staff and seamless service, but the reality fell short. Sad - because I have been raving about it to family and friends - embarrassing. The waitstaff appeared unfamiliar with the menu, struggling to answer basic questions about ingredients and dish recommendations. In a fine-dining establishment, I expect servers to have a thorough understanding of the menu, including preparation details and flavor profiles. Instead, there was visible confusion, and the staff had to repeatedly check with the kitchen for answers. Additionally, the service felt disorganized, indicating poor training and management oversight. Incorrect dishes were brought to the table, and it took far too long to correct these mistakes. While the ambiance and food were up to par, the lack of well-trained staff undermines the entire experience. High-end dining is about more than just the food—it’s about impeccable service. Unfortunately, eataly needs to seriously address their training and management if they want to justify their reputation and pricing.
