Already addressed issue w/Open Table but the restaurant wasn't even open!!! Can't review if it was under renovation or new ownership. Was just annoyed that I could make an OT reservation & get a confirmation & when we showed up @ 7:00 pm, the place was closed up. The good news is that OT responded immediately to my complaint & apologized for the inconvenience. I would really like to go to this place if it ever opens.

Restaurant changed names, it is now Cucina. They did away with their lunch special and regular menu items are available. The regular menu items are freshly prepared and quite good. Had the fish with escarole as my main meal, quite well done! Limited menu selection (seems that they reduced their menu items however, you still find Veal, Chicken, Fish and Pasta options. Hope new management continues with same quality service as I experienced during my recent stay. Very accommodating service, quite attentive to all requests. Nice experience, I will be back!

We received a cancellation from the restaurant an hour before our reservation on Mother's Day. We had to adjust our entire plans and try and find another reservation somewhere else.

The noise level was extremely high and made conversation very difficult. The food was good but not great. The portions were a good size. Instead of an ice bucket for our wine we were given a bowl of ice cubes. We won’t be going back.

What a gem! Cute little BYOB. My husband had the shrimp arrabiata appetizer, and the chicken rollatini dinner. I believe that they were both specials. I had the salmon tartar w/avocado in a citrus dressing, and the short rib special with broccoli rabe. We were both full from our meals and didn't have room for dessert. Everything was absolutely delicious. We are so happy that we tried this restaurant, and will definitely be returning. I highly recommend this restaurant, you won't be disappointed.

Well worth the drive. Small, cozy Italian neighborhood gem! The cheese and meat appetizer is a must! Shared the platter with my customer, no crumbs left over, it was delicious! The fish special is always a great choice. Everything is fresh and made to order. An exquisite Italian restaurant with BYOB which keeps the cost down. Prices are very reasonable. When in Totowa, stop by, you will enjoy it. I drove 16 miles to enjoy their food, will do it again and again!

Can't really leave a review based on the food - we made a reservation on Open Table and received a confirmation. When we showed up - there was no record of our reservation. The man disappeared for a bit to check his phone, but came back a couple of times to seat others who were waiting.. When he returned he advised there were no tables. He did insist the this was the fault of Open Table and not the fault of the restaurant. Naturally we weren't pleased. If the attitude from the man was a little more sympathetic it would have been easier, however he was very defensive and was very clear it wasn't his fault. Because of that attitude, we would never try this restaurant.
