Il Michelangelo Restaurant

Had a great experience! Loved the food. Was wondering if the owners are still fans of Michael Jackson. They spoke highly of him years ago.

The best Italian restaurant around. Dominic Casio is a terrific host has everyone feeling like family. Everyone should go there and enjoy a delicious meal.

The food is always excellent, the staff always friendly and the location is very convenient. The parking lot is a tad small but it's never been an issue.

Romantic. Great food. Dominic and Connie are warm and truly love their diners and make sure you truly enjoy your experience.

Incredible food, wonderful service! The housemade ravioli was fantastic! Can't wait to go back and try another dish.

Amazing everything! Some tips: try the bass oreganata, the bucatini amatraciana is amazing, enjoy a campari and soda before the meal, and request the bread pudding early--it sells out.

Great food, great atmosphere. Family owned and operated. When you are at the restaurant they make you feel like family.

I love this restaurant. Helpful staff. Wine selection is eclectic and varied. Fresh wonderful food!

Had a Retirement Party there yesterday... Food was great, staff was incredible and atmosphere wonderful... I know I will definitely be returning.

perfect!!!!!! we had lunch outside. everything was delicious. and a special thanks to our great waiter dominic.

The food was great so was the service have not been here in awhile but will return again soon.

Insanely good food! Friendly staff and interesting environment. Highly recommended!

I appreciate that the owners were kind enough to ask that I elaborate on my rating. So here goes! (TL;DR: Based on my one visit, definitely would recommend it, even for large parties.) I was here a while back for a get-together with my family (this was my first and so far only time there); there were quite a few of us (between 10 and 20 if I remember right). The restaurant was very accommodating of our large party and I always felt comfortable. Impressions from others that I spoke with afterward were also positive. The food itself was, to my memory, very good! It's been too long to be able to speak to any specific dishes, but I seem to remember having some excellent seafood. The overall ambiance is very nice; small but the space is used well and there is something interesting to see everywhere you look (lots of intriguing photos; I guess a number of celebrities have visited). Even the bathroom was very nice. In short, based on my one experience, I would certainly recommend this restaurant and would look forward to any chance to dine there again. Sorry to be unable after all this time to speak on any more specific points, but I hope this helps someone a bit!

This restaurant is one of my favorites. The owner is a gentleman who runs his restaurant the way it should be run. He always comes around to make sure everything is the way it should be and that his customers are happy, and he is very accommodating with reservations. The food is very, very good, especially my personal favorite, the chicken Domenico. Fresh quality ingredients go into all of the meals. The wait staff, namely Nathan, is very efficient and friendly as well. I would recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for an authentic Italian meal.

I am way overdue in posting this review, but we had my brothers repast here in Dec 2018 and not only was the service and food incredible, Dominic the owner was so compassionate and caring and made sure that everything was perfect. It was a luncheon, and we definitely overstayed our welcome LOL but the team set up their evening event around the few of us who were left reminiscing about my baby brother and didn't rush us out, in fact they insisted we stay and enjoy ourselves. I can't thank them enough for taking care of all the details and treating us so well. Highly recommend...they have private room with bar upstairs. Perfect for any event.

Great food. Good prices. Excellent customer service. My family has been going there for over 13 years; since it opened and has loved every time. Ambience is nice for a quite dinner with someone or with your whole family.

Attended a Food Demo/Dinner in Sept 2012 and it was great. After Chef Dominic demo the cooking technique the course was served to everyone and Chef Dominic went to each table to discuss/answer any questions the guests had. The place has a very homey feeling and the owners and staff make you feel like you are visiting their home. Nice upscale restaurant in an unexpected place. Great value and definitely a place to return to often.

Celebrated my 70th Birthday with family and friends this past Saturday. There are not enough words to describe our wonderful experience! Food as always was amazing and service outstanding! Looking forward to going back very soon. Thank you!

Food and Service were excellent.. Dominic and his father are always very nice along with the servers too. Went there last Saturday night with my wife,, We sat outside on the front patio and it was beautiful.. Food tasted great and they had some nice dinner specials.. We also had them cater a small party we were having and everything went Awesome.. Very reasonably pricing and excellent food and help in picking everything out.. All of my guests loved the food. Highly recommended.. Thanks..

Excellent food ...excellent service...started upstairs for a drink before dinner..nice chat with bartender..downstairs for dinner and the staff could not have been more attentive ..from refilling the water glasses, the absolutely delicious crostini, and wine as well. The owner made several stops at our table to make sure we were enjoying everything...we have been coming here every year for special occasions and will continue to do so ..love this place

Best authentic Italian restaurant around. Had an opportunity to meet and speak with the owner. Very personable. Gluten free menu. They cater to your every need. Can't wait to go again next time I'm in town.

Outstanding food, fine wine, excellent service. Eddie, our server, was super professional, knowledgeable and helpful. The calamari was the best that I've ever tasted, and the homemade Bread Pudding was fabulous.

Just had my retirement party there. The food, staff, service was exceptional. The private room was perfect for the party of 22 people. The room is separate from the restaurant which is really nice during the party.

Excellent food! Everything is excellent every time we are there. They catered to our family's celiac disease, with delicious appetizers everyone can enjoy. A little expensive but well worth it.

Excellent food and fantastic service. Everything was tasty fresh and made to order. I’ve never seen better service every server was super attentive and helpful

Love this place, the ambiance and specially food and dessert. Took my friend for her birthday and she wants to come back again. Worth it!!

Food was solid, service was a bit slow. I liked the setting overall in a converted colonial home.

Great food and very intimate place!

We had a huge party and the staff was great. The only reason I give this a four star review is that the AC was not good.. I was so hot and it couldn't cool off our party.

This evening, My husband and I enjoyed a lovely dinner. The food was delicious and the service very good. Very enjoyable 🙂

I was taken there for my birthday the service was good, and so was.the food. I especially enjoyed the stuffed artichoke.

Fun and festive with an accommodating staff. Food was tasty drinks cold and atmosphere cheerful. Do go, and enjoy.

The food, the service, the decor were great. The only reason this is not 5 stars is because we ordered clams and the breading was so dense, they tasted like something frozen. They were so bad that we couldn't eat 6. But the Rest of the food was excellent and the service was exceptional. The owner greets everyone as they come in and again as you leave. I will be going back and hope to give another review.

Great menu options and the food has always been good. Great service and the owner is very personable and seems genuinely interested in making you feel welcome and happy. A bit pricey but totally worth it.

Good pasta dishes. Unfortunately, the waiter Gary shared his political views and support of the disgraceful president so it is unlikely any of us will return again.

Pretty good food but nothing special except the price (expensive) The wait staff is awkwardly observant of your every move

Great service & quiet setting; unfortunately, food isn’t good and far from fine dining. The price is high for the quality it provides.

Food was good but the service was awful. We waited about an hour for food, 35 minutes for dessert and no one really seemed to care about it. There was a table of 4 right next to us talking to each other about how they knew the owners which explained why even though they came in 20 minutes after us they still got their food 20 minutes before us. I guess you need to know someone to get decent service in here.

Went for the first time to celebrate our wedding anniversary/Valentine's dinner and the homemade pasta was plentiful, and delicious! Our bottle of wine was reasonably priced the Tiramisu was to die for. This review would have gotten 5 stars, however, the hostess, I assume, Gary, ruined our dining experience and unfortunately, we won't be returning because of him. He made inappropriate comments on the racial demographics of Boonton and how impressed he was that our first names are so "American"... I would definitely recommend the food, and our original waiter was absolutely wonderful. Gary sat us, and picked up the check, and I did entertain conversation with him and he said he has been working with the restaurant owners for about 30 years - which baffles me and also leads me to believe that he isn't going anywhere. Insane.

Established is closed. Says it's open but it isn't. My friend and I each drove an hour as a meet point. Got there and it wasn't open though online says it is. We called no one picked up. Needs to be updated on site that they are NOT open
