We liked it so much we vowed to go back again. We decided to go back last week for wife’s birthday. Started with the shrimp spring rolls, followed by seafood over linguine for me and a pasta with shrimp and broccoli rabe for my wife. Great wine, service plus as an added bonus live music. In the background. Met Mr. Ponte the owner who couldn’t have been nicer. Italian is our favorite and this is much more than just a neighborhood joint. Prices are commensurate to other high end Italian in NJ. For us we don’t mind driving when we know we are guaranteed an excellent meal, service and entertainment!

Everyone that works there is very friendly, from the servers to the managers, and even the entertainment, who so graciously moved their things aside so we could take some pictures. I usually look for a place to dress up for when my birthday comes and Bareli’s was perfect for that. The food was good. I had the beet salad which was yummy. And I had the lasagna which was tender and didn’t feel heavy. They did not give me a hard time because we brought our own cake like some other establishments have. The prices also don’t break the bank. I would like to come back again!
