Excellent vodka sauce. Got a gluten free penne (theirs was smaller than regular penne) and requested to add grilled chicken, broccoli and mushrooms. So good! Penne was a touch overcooked but overall everything was very flavorful. Chicken was grilled to perfection and nicely caramelized.

If you want, homemade Italian food with the grandma like feel, I highly recommend try this place out in the heart of nutley! They are known for their arincini balls in vodka sauce, so I had to try them, and they were super delicious! I also tried their homemade meatballs with a side of ricotta and crostini. I also enjoyed the Caesar salad, which had a lot of dressing, which I love. For dinner I had the chicken vodka Parm, and it was so incredible! Also my friend got the spaghetti and meatballs, so good like someone’s grandma made them ! If you haven’t been to this place yet it’s a must!

I love this place. I was introduced to this restaurant when i worked in a school and once i moved to work in a nursing home I began ordering food from you but in two occasions we ordered rice balls and they were just plain rice balls no cheese no nothing. Today we ordered more food as we have ordered prior trays of food with pasta in Alfredo sauce and it was good and even eggplant. But now that we ordered again the eggplant was somewhat dry and this time the Alfredo sauce has no flavor. It just tastes like cream no salt no garlic. Very upsetting and the plate was half way full. Not happy with these last two orders. Hope the cook or owner see my review and do some tasting before food gets picked up or delivered. What won't be wrong is your grandma pie and eggplant in semolina bread the best and salads great.

Great food and service! We celebrated my sister's birthday for a party of 12. Victoria provided excellent customer service! As you can see by my photo we left no crumbs!

Ordered eggplant parm, mozzarella sticks, and a cannoli for delivery through Uber Eats. The resturant was out of cannolis so upgraded it to cheesecake which I thought was great! Everything wss packaged well and ready on time. The mozzarella sticks were good. I was surprised at how large of a portion the eggplant parm was and it about an inch and a half tall! The cheesecake was simple but very creamy. Overall the meal hit the spot!

The absolute most delicious food I’ve ever tasted! The rice balls are perfection, the pasta is out of this world & the desert menu is difficult to pick just one from! It’s great for a date night, family dinner, girls night or just to order from! You cannot go wrong, the entire menu is incredible!

I was trying to watch my waist. But their sign called me from across the street. Lucky they used good ingredients, I know because I didn't have greasy lips. ,🤔😂 And it still was good!! Excellent food. Enjoyed it, great family atmosphere.

Great little BYOB in the heart of Nutley. The food is delicious - pasta, chicken, salads, appetizers, even the bread is amazing. Fairly priced. Good service. They have a small parking lot but metered street parking is also pretty easy to find. We've been here too many times to count and will continue to come back!

Great place to eat! The Thai chili calamari is the perfect combo of sweet and spicy. The lobster ravioli was perfect with large, juicy shrimps on the side with a creamy sauce. The pizza is declious. The bread was yummy. Staff are super friendly and patient! Our party was not rushed, and we were provided with amazing service. I definitely wildeclines. Great place to come with friends, family, or with a date as it has a relaxed and chill ambiance. There is a small parking lot on the side which is great since the area can have limited parking.

Love this place...excellent food and the square pizza pie is amazing. Let me be more specific...if you like very think Sicilian (too much bread for me) then ask for "Sicilian Pie" if you like a thinner Sicilian, just ask for a square pie. Excellent Espresso

I went to a birthday party at 530 Sunday . All 15 of us directed to table by the front window. After we all arrived and were having a glass of wine we were told that they seated us on the wrong table and we need to move So we get up and moved .Appetizers are put out,Rice balls, and calamari and salad .We had to ask for the marinara sauce because none was put out with the calamari.Dinner was family style and we were told to keep our fork and knife because there was no other silverware.Coffee was served by the cup and no sugar or sweetener was put out till we asked for it.Service was fair at best.We were only 15 people..To me it appeared that this was the first time the wait staff had a group of 15.I dont know who owns Cucina but maybe having 3 groups in one evening needs a manager there also .The waitresses were kind but definitely overwhelmed.Also this family style was very expensive for the service that was rendered.

My fiancé and I had our engagement dinner in the dining room area for approximately 56 people. It was such an amazing experience. The food was delicious from appetizers to entrees everyone loved it. Of course, I have to mention the excellent service between Juan, Andrés, and Karey. They were so welcoming and always checked up on our guests. I totally recommend it!

I did go to Cucina 355 couple days ago for dinner after long day of volunteer work for Independent seniors living. I went to the restaurant with 2 friends and we had really good experience. The food was delicious, we got different plates to share and all of them were excellent!!! The waiter if I am not wrong his name is Andres was awesome. We asked him for recommendations and we were very impressed he knew the menu very well and was able to do good suggestions. Also the other guys were very nice too. Good team!!! My friends and I will come back soon!!!

The sausage pizza we had delivered tonight was insanely delicious! Best pizza we have ever had! We won’t be going anywhere else in the future. Compliments to the chef!!🧑‍🍳

I love this place! They have the best vodka sauce around! My partner and I catered for our Friendsgiving and the food was just amazing. Highly recommend this place
