Really good food great service! The place was really cozy on a cold night! They could use a little sound dampening though

Very nice meal at Marlon LaScala's Fire. The rigatoni and meatballs were perfect. Probably the best meatballs I had at a restaurant. The Italian Wedding Soup was extremely flavorful but surprisingly didn't have any pasta in the recipe. Lemon Cake and coffee were also great. The only feedback I would suggest is to not serve everything all at once.

We arrived early just to meet friends and celebrate a birthday. It's not a big deal, so we sat at the bar and ordered drinks at first, which were very good. I ordered a white Russian, and everyone had beer and wine. We had a choice to eat at a booth but stayed at a bar. We were told we had to move down to the end because they expected a large party that had reserved most of the bar. We moved, which was not a problem. Then we ordered, and it was happy hour; everything was half-price, which is a great deal here. The let us take home what we could not eat. Very cool. Because it was happy hour and a lot of places do not let you take left overs home from happy hour. Anyway, the food we ordered were Brussel Sprouts cooked in garlic, a small pizza, caesar salad, thinking they were going to be small sizes because of the hour but to my surprise they were full portions. Not only was I impressed with the service, but the food was so good. The atmosphere was nice, relaxing. It's kid friendly, wheelchair accessable, a big dining room, and a big bar area. Restrooms clean. Cash or card accepted. I can't wait to go back and try out the full menu.

We arrived on a Saturday night at 7:00 pm, and to my surprise, we had our choice between a few different spots at the bar offering four seats together. I was expecting the bar to be packed with the hopes of finding a pair of bar seats so two of us could sit and two could stand. LaScala's was busy. The tables were all occupied and they had a wedding in their private room. We started off with drinks; a couple of Tito's & Clubs, a Stoli Elit Martini with a twist and a Hendrick's Martini with an olive. Drinks were great as were the bartenders. They were friendly, patient, and one was always available to put in some food or mix up another drink despite how busy the restaurant was. We also had the mussels in red and caprese. The mussels, again like my prior visits, were delicious. They were tender and succulent, and the gravy was so good I could have ate the entire bowl with a spoon. The caprese was displayed beautifully and tasted as good as it looked. For dinner, we ordered Angel Hair with crab, Eggplant Parm, and Chicken Marsala. Again, the presentation was great. I thought the food was plated beautifully and the portion sizes were huge. The Marsala sauce was delicious. It came with two large pieces of tender chicken and plenty of mushrooms. My fiancé really enjoyed the Angel Hair with crab as well and had some leftovers she ate the following day that reheated well. The food this visit was great and we all enjoyed our dinners. The entire experience really changed my outlook on LaScala's Fire as I will not hesitate to return in the future for dinner and drinks. Side note: The bartender even offered to let me taste a beer, which I thought was very nice of him, as I was trying to decide between two drafts. I ended up going with LaScala's blood orange IPA which was very smooth and refreshing. My fiancé who doesn't like IPAs even thought it wasn't bad.

Well done Italian fare, modern chic Exploring NJ and found a place to try for a quick lunch. So we made the trek to give them a try. Inside, it's very much your modern fancy locale. Open kitchen, high ceilings with exposed piping and metal painted black, marble tops to the bar and tables. A very fancy place. Our server was prompt and courteous, friendly and helpful. She checked in multiple times and always made sure our drinks were topped off. We ordered the meatball trio for me, the mussels for her, and the stuffed red hots to share. Food came out after a short wait, which gave us time to chat. The meatballs were great. The ricotta was just salty enough to help mellow out the sweet marinara and punch the flavors of the meatball. The texture of the meatball was dense on the fork when cutting, but melt in your mouth when eaten. It was seasoned, presented, and executed expertly. A very solid meatball. The mussels were advertised a spicy, but not so much. The flavor was great though. Bright, acidic tomatoes with bits of pork chorizo in a flavorful broth was a delight to savor with mussels or bread. The stuffed long hots were very hot, so much so that any semblance of filling was overshadowed by heat. But the peppers did have a great char and a good earthy tone to them. Overall, it was a very well done tapas lunch. It's got a bit of the modern chic going on, but they accept all. Was a great meal, and they are worth a trek

Ambiance: This restaurant was renovated after the pandemic I think and it's gorgeous! The island in the middle of the restaurant is a huge bar and they have a lot more space than before. The outdoor seating is great when the weather is nice but the inside is equally beautiful. I especially enjoy the chandelier installations. Service: The service is good, usually we get in without a long wait but this place is a draw for the after work happy hour crowd. Overall the wait staff are good and really attentive and give good recommendations. Food: There are definitely some hits and some misses on the menu. Without a doubt I alway recommend the Chicken San Remo. It's definitely large enough for two people and it tastes really good. The Arancini is amazing and would definitely recommend as well. As far as misses the lemon crab and shrimp over linguini is bland and I had to send back.

The pizzas here are the best ever. Very much enjoyed the mushroom truffle pizza and the fig and prosciutto pizza!! The calamari is interesting- I don't have the most advanced calamari palette and I enjoyed it however my boyfriend is obsessed with calamari and stopped eating it after the first couple because it was not crispy enough. The drinks were strong! Great place with nice live music on tuesdays-thursdays.

Came here on a Monday night. Such great service and delicious food. The whipped ricotta was sooo delicious and plentiful for 2 people. Cheesesteak spring rolls were so filling. I got the Mike's Hot Honey pizza and my husband got the chicken parm! We had so much leftovers - enough for another dinner. 5/5 would come back again !
