Don't let the location and building itself fool you, this is a classy Jersey Italian spot through and through. My aunt and uncle always rave about this place for family meals. Go for their Sunday morning pasta delays, a great reminder why living in New Jersey is top tier. We gotta try their larger area next door for our next family gathering

We had a nice experience on a Sunday evening. Parking lot behind makes it easy and service was lovely. Around 7ish it started to get very packed, they can accommodate larger tables as well. I would recommend a resy. We tried a few salads and calamari. Very good. We then ordered mains- I had Chicken Francese and my husband the Ravioli with bolognese. He really liked it! We then shared the warm brownie and tiramisu. Overall a good experience!

The food is very tasty and the service is impeccable! The prices are a bit expensive, but they do give you generous portions.

4.5 for food because it was truly excellent. 2 for service (not our waiter specifically ) but generally speaking a lot of folks hanging around not filling water and not offering bread until the menus are cleared?

Cozy small restaurant in Metuchen. We were quickly greeted and seated. Service was great throughout our dinner. The table shared an appetizer: balsamic calamari. Crispy, flavorful and perfectly cooked calamari. Great app. For my main course, I had the chicken parmigiana which comes with choice of pasta. I opted for my favorite bucatini (not often found in menus). The dish was great: al dente pasta, flavorful sauce and crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside chicken. We were too full for dessert! Great place I'd revisit if in the area.

I saw on Instagram that this place had weekend lunch specials so I suggested it for lunch with friends. Entrees were $15 with appetizers and desserts for an additional cost. When I walked in, it was just past opening time so it took a bit for someone to come out and seat me. The waiter was nice and frequently refilled water for the group. I got the skate fish piccata and it was pretty good. I'm not too sure how piccata should be, but it was pretty oily/buttery. I would've preferred a more emulsified sauce, or less butter. We also got a calamari to share and that was pretty good. Overall good for the price, and if you don't want a super heavy meal. The restaurant looked nice enough for a romantic evening or celebration.

We recently stopped in at @torino_metuchen in Metuchen, NJ, for a special family get-together. We tried the Wagyu Steak Torino, Fried Calamari, Cheese Risotto Balls, Chicken Parm, and Shrimp Scampi. Everything was delicious. If you're in the Central Jersey area, I recommend checking them out. The restaurant has a cozy, fun atmosphere. They do offer some wines available,and are also byob, which makes it a great place to hold parties, work functions, holiday parties, etc. Everyone was welcoming and helpful. They don't show a children's menu but did offer chicken tenders and fries for the kids, which was a great option. I definitely look forward to going back to try the rest of the menu.

We had ice cream first before heading over to Torino. Admittedly, we were a little full from our ice cream (the shop was closing early and dessert is important)! My friend and I shared the fried calamari - nice, light, and crispy, with a little bit of spice to the sauce. We also shared the meatballs with pasta and I chose bucatini bc where else can I get bucatini! Everything tasted fresh and delicious, great pasta!
