I am an Italian and I have been living in Princeton for 15 years, I have finally found a restaurant where the hospitality and the food are excellent. I now have a desire to eat out and I know that I am going to enjoy it. The price is very good for the food and quality you get. I have... More

I've lived in Princeton for 15 years, eat out often and had never heard friends talk about Gennaro's. But I happened to be checking tripadvisor for travel, decided to check my hometown, and determined to go for dinner after reading some reviews. (I couldn't believe I had missed it!) Well, this is a perfect example of why I've become suspicious... More

Great food in an intimate setting. My absolute favorite BYOB! Service is great, but it's the food that keeps me coming back. The "Greens Gennaro" (my favorite) is both unique and delicious. The fish is fresh and the pasta dishes are excellent. I would highly recommend this place to anyone that enjoys good Italian food. More

I'm not really sure how this could be rated one of the best restaurants in Princeton. This is an entirely generic but very expensive Italian restaurant, filled with plastic decorations and stereotypical Italian music playing in the background. Food is fine but generic without any creativity. Location is unpleasant off a major road. Not really sure why anyone would pay... More

I was in charge of finding a good Italian restaurant in the area. For 10 picky foodies. I read the reviews and it sounded like the food was good but the "decor" was not. Well, I'll eat at a hole in the wall if the food is good so that wasn't a concern. But it was super cute..well lite..not crazy... More

Decided to check out this restaurant after reading trip advisor reviews. It did keep up to the comments here with good food and outstanding service. This is as good as it gets in a small university town of Princeton. More

I don’t get it – good food but overrated. What is the big deal with this place? Décor is outdated and the prices on Valentines Day were insulting for what was served. Average entrée price was 40 bucks – for what? Go ahead and charge a premium but don't ripoff clients. More

A little sckeptical at first as nobody was at the restaurant when we arrived at 6:15 pm. However we enjoyed the service and one cannot go wrong when your server proclaims that, "I make dreams come true!" We enjoyed our various starters (various salads and soups) and the mains were delicious. The prices are a little expensive but it was... More

Wow, where do I start! Well, the moment you walk into Gennaro's and receive their warm welcome, you will feel both at home and at the same time their special guest! Everyone at Gennaro's sincerely wants your dining experience to be perfect and it was! The waitstaff attended to every need throughout dinner--friendly, courtious, never rushing our dinning experience. Appetizer:... More
