In terms of real Italian food, this is as good as it gets. There are many Italian-American restaurants to be found (even eliminating chains) but this is the kind of food you would find in Italy itself. The best word to describe this restaurant is balance. From the service to the atmosphere to the pace of the dining experience, this... more

This is a slightly unknown gem. The food is simply out of this world. Every dish was perfection - a blend of rich flavors. The steaks were superb, the fish incredibly tasty and well prepared. Though I had a few worries about the wait staff from the previous reviews, I can guarantee you that those worries were completely misplaced. The... more

I love the atmosphere and food at Orvieto! It's especially nice to go in the winter when there is a warming log fire in the fireplace. The atmosphere is so cozy and warm. Elena always comes to the table to give the extensive list of specials. Amazingly, she describes how each dish is prepared in great detail even though there... more

This is not only our favorite but also my parent's favorite restaurant. Aside from the wonderful food, we also love the cozy, friendly atmosphere. It's worth the trip just for listening for the wonderful announcement of all of the mouthwatering daily specials. But of course the fireplace, the live music which never overpowers but just contributes to the overall ambience,... more

Great food, decor needs some work more

But the service has been spotty. We've been there on busy nights, and slow nights. We've never truly had a problem with the servers at our table, but I've noticed... more

Very good italian food, but deadly slow service. Seriously. A nice meal if you have the whole night and can wait and wait and wait... more

This place is worth a try. I don't doubt they are the only 4-Star Restaurant in Flemington. But this rating is not to be mistaken by Manhattan's 4-Star ratings. But then again this is Flemington (which is a nice town). The food is definitely good, but to charge $29.00 for the Entree Specials and $12.00 for Appetizer Specials... I think... more
