“ We went here for my nephew's birthday because he wanted steak and it was close to where we lived. The place was crowded but, since we had a reservation, we didn't have to wait to be seated. Our server was attentive and gave us time to look over the menu after we ordered our drinks. There are no refills on the soft drinks (except water) because they are sold in bottles. I ordered the Linguini alle Vongole and it was good. If you are really hungry, the portion size probably won't satisfy you but it was enough for me. The noise level was above average but it's because the place was really busy, even for a Monday night. I'll return here if the occasion calls for it. ”

“ I visited this place last night. The food and service were amazing. The woman who I believed to be the owner made sure that we were able to enjoy our dinner although we arrived while the kitchen was closing. We were not rushed out nor did we feel rushed. I will return soon, just a little earlier next time. ”

“ My family lived in Livingston for many years, passed by this place countless times and moved out of Livingston but have never been to Nero's. We decided to give it a try for my mom's 73rd birthday. I was a little nervous because the mixed reviews. First, it's a beautiful establishment with both indoor and outdoor seatings. Second, the service is great. I made a reservation for today but for some reason it was put in for next Sunday. They quickly put a table for us for 9 people. Now the food, it is decent but I do agree with other reviews that for the price you pay, it could be better. We asked for medium rare for our ribeye but it was well-done. We told the waitress and she was very nice and cool about it and they made us new ones. When you didn't do it right the first time, you do it very right the next time and they did. We all enjoyed the calamari a lot and the kids liked the pizza. We also brought a cake and they were nice to bring it out and give us plates and silverware even when they have a full house. Overall, it was a good dining experience. ”

“ Came here to celebrate my son's college graduation. Caroline was our server. She is very attentive, and friendly. All the other runners/servers are very nice too. The owner came to each table to make sure that we were happy with the meal, and greeted us again when we left the restaurant. The portions are huge! Everything we ordered were excellent. From lobster rolls to Chicken to scallops to fish, everything was well presented and the taste and temperature were top notch. Desserts: we had no more room for the huge carrot cake...so we ordered three different things to share. The cheesecake was so good! Key lime pie was also very good. But the star was the strawberry shortcake! The only complain is the price for soda. Each tiny bottle of coke is $5, and no free refill. The price was not listed anywhere on the menu. I will simply not order any drinks next time. Very happy with the dinner. We will be back. ”

“ In a neighborhood where the clientele can be demanding, Nero's has delivered for decades. Solid, reliable food-but the customer service stands out. They do cater to your special requests, unfazed. ”
