BRIO (meaning "lively" or "full of life") is a "polished casual" restaurant serving authentic, northern Italian cuisine. The subtitle, "Tuscan Grille" is descriptive for a menu that features oven-roasted steaks, chops, and seafood; similar to what one would find in an authentic ristorante in Tuscany. BRIO's philosophy of "to eat well, is to live well" is why they only use the finest and freshest ingredients. BRIO brings the pleasure of a Tuscan country villa to the American city.

    What an incredible night at La Cipollina! This was our first time visiting and it was such an amazing night. Every bite was better than the last and I cannot wait to come try out some new things. The owner even stopped by our table a few times and took us on a little tour of the restaurant! Antonio and Liz were always there when we needed them and provided great service too. A great family owned business that we will definitely be bringing family and friends back to.

    Hands-down, one of the best dining experiences I’ve been a part of. We sat at the chefs table and we couldn’t ask for a better experience, the ambiance, visual of the entire kitchen, from the service to the food, it exceeded expectations.. The special kale duck confiet salad was unbelievable. The meatballs were cooked to perfection and that was just the appetizers.  You are able to order half portions of their pasta dishes, (our server was great, informative with great suggestions like half portions so you can try more than one dish) and so we tried the Cavatelli, Spaccatelle & Spicy Rigatoni. All were Delicious & perfectly cooked.. Throughout the meal the Chef would check on us and have brief conversations which were appreciated and welcomed. We will definitely be back again soon!!

    Fantastic meal all around. Roman gnocchi is always a must, the artichoke appetizer was delicious as well. The pizzas and pasta speak for themselves and are some of the best in NJ. The pistachio tiramisu was a great finish to an amazing meal. When my wife and I are celebrating special occasions, we always find ourselves at La Lupa. Keep up the great work.
