Not sure what happened to Arturo’s. We came back after a while and the only good thing about this place was the complimentary salami, provolone and bread. Their short rib was salty, the risotto that came with it was very hard - it was practically not cooked at all! We told the waitress & she recommended a different dish which was better. Then we asked for coke, it was flat. There’s two receptionists just staring at everyone (I called one of them to let her know the coke was flat) bc we were waiting too long and she doesn’t say anything but points to our waitress who takes the coke and doesn’t come back with it. Overall, such a terrible experience. And no they were not busy.

A Memorable Night at Arturo’s. More Than Just Dinner. Nestled in Midland Park, Arturo’s offers more than a meal. it’s an experience that lingers with you. From the moment we stepped in, we felt the comforting embrace of true Italian hospitality.
The highlight of the evening was the homemade pasta special with NJ tomatoes and lumps of crabmeat. Each bite was a masterclass in flavor, fresh, tender, and seasoned to perfection. It was a standout dish that set the tone for the entire meal.
We ended on a sweet note with their tiramisu, a cloud-like delight that was both delicate and indulgent. Even my five-year-old couldn’t get enough of his spaghetti and meatballs. It was heartwarming to see him savor every bite with such joy.
Adding magic to the evening was the live pianist playing just steps away. The soft notes created a charming, almost cinematic backdrop to our dinner. It made the night feel extra special. Like we were part of something uniquely intimate.
As for service, Greg, our attentive and gracious waiter, managed our party of nine with calm confidence and sincere care. He was incredibly accommodating, making each of us feel like honored guests.
If you're seeking a place that blends exquisite food with soul-soothing ambiance, Arturo’s is a must-visit. We left full, happy, and already dreaming about our next meal there.

Update. Weekend may present a problem, or under staffed. Dinner was disappointing from lack of proper service. So instead of enjoying ourselves, we spent our time trying to get another drink. Basically we were left to fend for ourselves and instead of staying for coffee and desert we paid the check and left. WOW! For my wife to rave at the authenticity and taste of the Cacio e pepe is a very high compliment. The Steak Pizzaiola was also very nice cut, properly prepared medium rare. Honestly, I like the way Espo's in Raritan, NJ prepares it with mozzarella cheese, the steak itself not as tender as Arturo's. The Staff was attentive and professional and service was perfectly timed. We will most certainly make this our new dining home.

Serves fantastic food but also provides a warm and inviting atmosphere. The staff were attentive and knowledgeable, making sure every aspect of the meal was perfect.
A true gem for anyone seeking authentic Italian cuisine. From the insane delicious Arancini balls to the exquisite Chicken Marsala, every dish is crafted with care and passion. Paired with a fine glass of Pinot Noir, it's an experience you won't want to miss.

My wife took me to Arturo’s on Friday night June 27, 2025, for my 75th birthday, which is actually Monday, June 30th.
We were greeted by a smiling and energetic young lady who showed us to our table. Next we were served potato croquettes, cheese and the most phenomenal Sopressata I’ve ever eaten with great basket of bread. YUM and YUMMER!!!
Our server Isabella greeted us and took our drink orders. My wife had a Negroni (her favorite cocktail) and I had a Markers Mark on the rocks. When she returned with our drink she told us about their specials for the night asked if we had any questions about the menu then gave us some time before returning to take our order.
I ordered 2 appetizers, stuffed zucchini flowers, stuffed with ricotta, mozzarella and prosciutto and escargot. Both apps were incredible. My wife ordered Capellini with Crab Meat, made in a light tomato sauce with garlic, arugula and sun dried tomatoes. There was an amazing amount of jumbo lump crabmeat, so sweet and delicious. I totally enjoyed Braised Short Rib with Risotto. Its braised for 48 hours and served over Arborio Risotto with tomato and toasted pine nuts. The short rib was sooooo tender if I did not have any teeth I could have eaten it. Just marvelous and astonishing. I enjoyed a glass of Chianti with my meal. Molto bene!!!
We ended of our dinner with two regular coffees and shared a slice of house made cheesecake with caramel sauce. A Phenomenal Ending to a Great Dinner with Extraordinary Food and Service.
Thanks to ownership for creating notable memories with great people, great service, great food resulting in great experiences.
I want to recognize our server Isabella. She is a benchmark in my opinion for servers to strive to be. Truly an asset to Arturo’s.
If you’ve never been to Arturo’s give it a try. I know you agree with me it is a fantastic restaurant.
