Joe Italiano's Maplewood Mays Landing

Dangerous garlic bread. As in you could make a meal out of it and not feel bad about it. It's that good. The stuffed shells my wife had & my gnocchi were quite good as well and worth getting again. We got a slice of their peanut butter pie to go and my only regret was that we only got that one slice. Finding a peanut butter pie that good AND that light doesn't happen too often. The staff was friendly, quick and very polite. The 2 accountant/lawyer types who seemed terrified that anyone would overhear their 'important' conversation ought to realize that maybe talking a little less loudly might help and most of us tune out anyone who uses the word fiduciary at dinner is generally ignored.

Our waitstaff Ms. Deborah C, was one of the most friendly and welcoming. She was attentive to all our needs and made sure the food was served in a timely manner. We ordered lobster Bisque soup, which was delicious and warm. The Salmon was excellent too. Our sincere thanks to Deborah C, keep smiling. You are awesome.

Ive only ever gotten their food to go. But the inside looks beautiful im gonna have to take the wife on a date here. But we love their food their service is top tier. Will recommend

recently went here during prime time (around 6:15 pm) on a friday night to get a takeout order for myself. the place was packed with a 40 minute wait time for those standing/sitting around to get a table. stephen approached & asked if i was picking up an order. i told him i wanted to place a takeout order. he said it would be 40 minutes to get the order. i told him i would come back another time since i can't drive in the dark & i had come when it was so busy. he said to wait & he'd see what he could do. shortly after this he reappeared & said he could have my order out in 15 or 20 minutes. not only did he get the order to me in 15 minutes but ran back in twice to the kitchen to add small things to the order . stephen was amazing, professional & friendly & i want to give a shout out to him for his valuable service to me at a very busy time at this great restaurant! stephen, thank you for helping me have a wonderful first delicious dinner in my new apartment after being displaced by a fire that totally destroyed my home! i just had been relocated to my new apartment after having stayed in a local hotel for almost a month. you are truly appreciated for what you did for me! the kindness of strangers is truly a gift during difficult times!
