    Our server Lauren was excellent…we had allergy issues and she was very attentive and helpful! We ordered the clams oreganato and was slightly disappointed with them…all breadcrumbs and very little clams. I felt overpriced for what you get. Otherwise, food, service and ambience excellent!

    Had another wonderful meal, cocktails and date night l. Loved the holiday decor and for the first time sat in the covered patio area-we usually reserve a bar high top. Our waiter was attentive, friendly and paced our meal as requested so we were not finishing appetizers when our entrées arrived. We started with our favorite appetizers- crispy bbq ribs and the bread with ricotta. Ribs needed a bit more sauce but were excellent. My husband tried the Bolognese (he usually gets short ribs) which is offered in two sizes. Delicious but we expected the larger portion to be big enough for leftovers but portion was just enough for him. Scraped the plate. I had my usual, the organic chicken. Crisp and juicy as always. Overall a great meal and experience. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

    Semolina is always our first choice when we come back to NJ. As usual is was phenomenal!!! The coffee crusted venison carpaccio was tender and delicious. I had the squash angolotti that were plump and the creamy sauce has just enough truffle and pepper notes. My husband had the spicy octopus ragú and it was light and flavorful. Finished the night with a hefty pot de crème that was perfection. Trish was out server and she was attentive, witty and efficient as the dining room was filling up punctuated by Bryson and Jillian who made sure we had everything we needed. once again walked away full and happy!

    ALWAYS an outstanding meal, service & ambience. DC's dumplings are a must have appy! I'm hooked on their Lobster Risotto and Short Ribs but went out of my realm with their pork chop with extra Parmigiano Reggiano ~ absolutely delicious. Highly recommend for any occasion or just go for a delicious meal any time!!!!
