4.5 out of 5 stars. Between like and loving it. I have to say the Manicotti, Eggplant Parm, Chicken Parm, Veal Parm, Cavatelli, lentils soup, ricotta cheesecake, and zupetta are what I definitely really like. besides the stuffed peppers. My fav. is Eggplant Parm, Chicken Parm, lentils soup, and of course the sandwiches when I go there during lunch hours. I hate cheesecake from anywhere and anyplace that I've tried; I cannot eat cheesecake for the life of me; besides the gelatin cheesecake that I made,yet I can actually eat the ricotta cheecake over here and not feel sick of the texture but feeling soo wanting more of it. It's this light airy cheesecake that the texture and consistency of it is very balanced and airy. To feel really good, you would definitely need two slices of this R. Ccake --it's heavenly delicious cuz it's like something frm heaven. It's defi. worth it, even if you're very lactose intolerant. Other than that, if you need something satisfying quick and into chocolate, then the Zuppetta is for you. I heard from friends that they like the tirimisu. I haven't tried the tirimisu yet.
You could even have the dishes changed up and anyway you want it if you ask on the spot. Pizza and Calzone are a must try at this place. They're the best when you eat them hot from the oven; otherwise, it won't taste that great. For me, the bruschetta and sicilion pizza are amazing. Usu. I get the bruschetta.
I think on Friday and Saturday nights it's jus packed crowded and noisy; that's the only downside. -esp. if you wanna eat in peace and quiet. -wished you could eat outside or something. All tables are...

Last night, I went to Nunzio's, with my family, to celebrate an accomplishment by one of my daughters. I was glad to see the restaurant incredibly busy with full tables and plenty of customers picking up their "to go orders". The meal was delicious, as usual, and the service just as good. Towards the end of our meal I asked our server for another order of chicken parmigiana with olive oil and garlic sauce on the pasta, in place of the regular red sauce. She returned after a few minutes to tell me the chef will not make another special order. Initially I thought someone was pranking me and I looked around to see who was kidding around. I quickly realized she was serious. The restaurant was very busy and I decided not to pursue the matter and opted to write this review. I have NEVER been told that I cannot buy a plate of food because I want it a certain way, especially when I had just eaten the exact same plate. Hell, even fast food restaurants accommodate their customers likes and dislikes. I'm not looking for any special treatment but it's a shame that Nunzio's now has this type of disposition and...
