Lepore's Italian Market — Restaurant in Westwood

Every year on St. Patrick's Day, my wife and I try a new place for Corned Beef and Cabbage and are usually disappointed. I usually wind up making my own because we just cant find a place that makes it good. This year we decided to give Lepore's a chance because we have been ordering their weekly dinners and have been very happy with the quality and consistency of their food. It was the best Corned Beef and Cabbage we have had in years. It was cooked perfectly, tender, juicy and delicious. The Cabbage was soft and tender but not mush and falling apart. It still had some good texture to it, and still extremely tender, the way it should be. The potatoes were soft and creamy and also perfectly cooked. There were no carrots and while I usually love carrots with my CB & C, I didn't miss them at all because everything else was so good. This was like a Grammy Winning Movie, the main star was fabulous and the supporting roles were just as good. Nicely Done Lepore's and thank you for making such delicious food for the Pascack...

Excellent subs, especially the Sicilian. They also have refrigerated containers of food, like ziti, lasagna, pint of various sauces, etc ready to buy.

Friday noon had a line of ~7 people, and having called in a pickup order 30 minutes in advance during peak made no difference (still have to wait in line to mention your order, and wait for it to be made).

Limited indoor and outdoor seating. Finding open parking can be hard, but there's a municipal parking lot...

Everything we've tried is fabulous. Excellent eggplant napoleons (if you need a quick appetizer, buy a couple, pop in some pretty toothpicks and slice into bite sized snacks! - get the balsamic dressing on the side and drizzle over, it's amazing), buffalo chicken salad, regular potato salad and the rice balls are favorites in our house. Sandwiches made to order, specials, and a host of frozen take home sauces/soups/pastas....
