“ We had the most amazing clams in white sauce on Christmas Eve. The right amount of garlic and seasoning - not too much, just enough to bring out the flavor of the perfectly cooked fresh clams. Love the service and the team at this South Jersey gem!!! ”
“ Went for a wedding rehearsal- great place for ambience. Had live music by their VERY busy bar- dimly lit, old school. Food was very good, service was fine. The way this place looks and feels, the food really doesn't matter. And I have never said that about any other local place ”
“ Just had an educational work dinner here in a nice private room. The servers were attentive, the food was delicious, and the room was perfect for our event. We started with beer and wine, a chilled antipasto bar, then a house salad and choice of entree. I really liked the antipasto bar. My chicken parm was delicious, 2 crispy breasts over pasta, I had enough for leftovers. We wrapped up with coffee and a perfect mini cannoli, the sweet end to a nice dinner. ”
“ Very nice happy hour. The restaurant is lovely with several rooms. Bar is a nice size with comfortable pub chairs. Our barmaid was the best and quickly took our orders. I had a delicious hh burger. We also had some shrimp, Caesar salad and calamari to share among four and the portions were more than an ample as appetizers. I'll definitely return here! ”
“ Having never been to Il Villaggio, I am pleased to say we had a nice time at their brand-new swanky bar! It's aesthetically pleasing with a city vibe. This would be a great spot to host a private cocktail party. It was the evening before Thanksgiving, and it was relatively quiet at 5:00 PM. By 7:00 PM, the (large) bar area was quite packed. The restaurant doesn't offer a true Happy Hour. They have bar bites and specialty cocktails, but there are no discounts during certain hours. It appears you can order off the bar menu right up until closing. The four of us ordered a few appetizers to split (Paccheri Burrata, Calamari, Rib Eye Meatballs, and Scallop Fragole). We were pleased with our selections...everything was delicious! One thing worth mentioning was the demographics of the crowd. It was mostly older gentlemen (~70 years old and up), who seemed to all know each other (regulars?). We were the youngest bar patrons by a landslide. It wasn't an issue for us, but if you're seeking to mix and mingle among a younger crowd (middle-aged or under), this may not be the spot for you. Although perhaps this particular evening warranted a gentlemen-of-a-certain age crowd? We'll have to return to find out! ”
