- CChuckPhiladelphia County •1 review5.0Dined 2 days agoOutside was a bit loud this time because there was a big party (20 pp) in the tent, but still enjoyable. Last time we went it was the opposite and the inside was louder so I think it depends on the group. Either way we always love the food there and the waitstaff are always upbeat and personable. We’ve been coming to Visalia’s for 20 years, ever since we moved to the area and it’s always been greatMore infoVidalia Restaurant - Lawrenceville, NJPrice: Moderate• Italian• Princeton•4.8
- KKarenMaine •3 reviews5.0Dined 3 days agoZara’s exceeds expectations. This spacious, welcoming neighborhood restaurant delivers every excellence every time. Our dinner with another couple who tried Zara’s for the first time was simply delicious. Our friends took seconds and even thirds it was all so good.  The menu options are many and they can adjust the degree of space to taste. We look forward to our return.More infoZara's RestaurantPrice: Expensive• Pakistani• Princeton•4.3

- EElisabethVIPPhiladelphia County •11 reviews5.0Dined 3 days agoGrazie Bistro was a delightful dining discovery! We went in for an early dinner so it was quiet and relaxing. The menu was pretty extensive. Lots of choices from fine dining to burgers and pizza if you wanted something laid back. We were greeted warmly and our server was just a lovely person. We started with the Crab Arancini which was perfectly prepared... light and full of crab. No fillers! I had the fresh made Papparadelle with Bolognese. The portion was perfect and it was so delicious I ate the whole thing! I also had the Caesar salad which was beyond mundane. It actually looked elegant and tasted scrumptious. My husband order the Pear salad and the Chicken with green peppercorn sauce. Both were excellent. We had to try a dessert since everything else had been so yummy. Ordered a lemon tart served with vanilla gelato and didn't leave a bite! I think it's important that patrons recognize that this restaurant is not a pizza joint. It is a fine dining experience and I have to say as someone who is a really good home chef and a very experienced restaurant goer that THIS spot hits the spot. I will definitely be frequenting it. The prices are SO reasonable to score even extra brownie points. Honestly, I can't say enough.More infoGrazie BistroPrice: Moderate• Italian• Princeton•4.7
