My sister and I were planning to get dinner tonight and I suggested here because this was my second time here, and I really enjoyed my first time here. This was her first time coming to this restaurant and she was just as pleased as I was. Food and service was great as always, and the ambience and vibes were pleasant. Definitely recommend this restaurant as a great spot to dine in and enjoy good food and company.

Lovely ambiance with big comfortable couches and no squishing in with diners elbow to elbow. Complimentary bread bar with toasting grill is awesome! And complimentary sparkling versus flat water is nice too. Delicious pizza’s, and everything plated beautifully. Moderate price range and would be a great place for a date or Christmas party! Have been here several times and have never been disappointed.

I had a fantastic dining experience at Scaddabush! The atmosphere was warm and inviting, perfect for a night out. The staff was attentive and friendly, making sure everything was just right. The food was absolutely delicious – the fresh pasta and flavorful sauces truly stood out. We also loved the burrata, which was creamy and perfectly paired with the bread. Scaddabush is a great spot for anyone looking for high-quality Italian-inspired dishes in a casual, yet lively setting. I’ll definitely be back!
