Have been going here for many years and yet to have a bad meal. The food is of very generous portions and absolutely delicious. The prices are very reasonable as well. I love the calamari ny style for appetizer, and the chicken francais as well as marsala for an entrée. In short I highly recommend this place.

I would give more stars if I could. We stopped here for lunch because it was just off the highway. For a mere $11, I received, warm bread with toppings, a fresh house salad, a good sized portion of eggplant parm and a huge serving of pasta. The service was attentive. My ice water was refilled without me having to ask. The atmosphere was upscale with cloth napkins amd tablecloths and the food was absolutely delicious. We had such a nice lunch and will definitely stop here the next time we are in the area.

They were busy on the 3d of July. The had a “party” of about a dozen in the front/bar area. They seemed to be well-cared for, while those of us in the back were waited on by 1.5 waiters and NO ADDITIONAL HELP. There were eight tables occupied in the back and one had six or eight people. One or two tables bailed (as we did) when our entrees did not arrive in an hour.

We ordered food for a family function and it was absolutely delicious!! The penne ala vodka, sausage and peppers, and eggplant parmigiana had so much flavor made your mouth water over and over! The first time ever our dinner table was quiet! The trays were huge for the cost! We will only order from Carmines di vega for all our catering needs! Food was ready and warm at time promised!

Visited restaurant on 3/31/23 with a party of three. Ordered calamari siciliano appetizer for appetizer (enough for three) and was delicious. Entrees were chicken parmigiana, chicken Frances, & cavateli alla salisiccie which were also delicious. Should also mention bread served with dinner with olive oil and Parmesan cheese was good for an appetizer. All three of us left with a doggy bag since the entree portions were large. Service was good with attentive staff. Dinner bill was very reasonable.

Unbelievable food!!! The owners met us and were very gracious. I had a combo of lasagna and meatballs. The sauce and cheese was great. Portions were huge! The staff makes you feel like family. Ask for the server by the name of Crunchy! He will give you memories that last a lifetime! Small business, owner operated. I will definitely bring my family back here when they come up from N.J.

New Years’ Eve 2022 with friends. Had to ask for napkins and silverware. Cesar salad delivered less the Cesar dressing. Asked for dressing, received Ranch or ?? No bartender; the waiter made our drinks, not even close to what we ordered. The ladies’ room was filthy. I mentioned it to our waiter, but our waiter ignored me, and I mentioned the same to (2) other male staff members, they laughed at me and told me women are slobs. Had to get toilet paper out of the men’s room…
