User Reviews

Went here for our anniversary dinner. Never been here and we really enjoyed it. The menu was nice and simple. The specials were great which I ended up getting. The apps were amazing. We got the balsamic calamari. It was sweet and had a great texture. I loved it and they have the option to get out without the basalmic. I liked it as is and provided a picture below. We felt the price was really fair. Can't wait to come back.

The gnocchi dish here was very good, service was a touch above average and with limited potential given the old building the atmosphere still has a element of charm..I'd stop back anytime..cheers !

The food tasted great as always. We went during Metuchen restaurant week, so choices were limited to the special menu. But that didn't mean that there was no variety. Still plenty of choices between seafood, chicken, beef, and pasta. I had the red snapper with baby shrimp over spinach risotto with a brandy cream sauce. It was delicious.

How is this old crusty place still in business? The only person who enjoyed their meal was my 80 year old dad with dementia. Decor/food/service poor… do the town a favor and close….

Atmosphere, food, and service were excellent. The staff was more than accommodating. The food was spectacular. Everything about Civile Cucina exceeded any expectations that one mY have.

Been multiple times and they never disappoint. Service is top notch. Bread baked fresh to order. Just know that portions are large, so don’t get a whole appetizer per person and it is BYOB. I will be back many more times.

Thanks for a great meal. My son and I celebrated Father's Day (early). We had a great dinner. The owner was on site and on target. Friendly, personable and kind. We recommend that you eat dinner here. Thanks for a memorable experience!

This is my favorite place. Their family style meal is one of the highlights of my life! The owner is so kind and accommodating! I come here with my family for special occasions and they have been consistently amazing every single time! Could not say enough good things about this restaurant!
