This restaurant offers good service, but the food is pretty average. There isn't anything particularly exciting on the menu or in terms of flavors. Reservations are not required, which seems fitting since the dishes aren’t anything out of the ordinary. View all feedback.

We had a reservation for 7:15 and arrived right on time. Our party had salads and entrees. At 840 half of us departed to catch the train in 10 minutes back to the city. The remaining group stayed to pay the bill. The busboy or waiter was really rude and asked them as soon upon paying the bill to leave as another group had been waiting an hour for our table. Can’t imagine that was our fault or how they could be waitin... View all feedback.
We had a reservation for 7:15 and arrived right on time. Our party had salads and entrees. At 840 half of us departed to catch the train in 10 minutes back to the city. The remaining group stayed to pay the bill. The busboy or waiter was really rude and asked them as soon upon paying the bill to leave as another group had been waiting an hour for our table. Can’t imagine that was our fault or how they could be waiting an hour for a table we were sat at 85 minutes ago. I don’t consider an hour and a half a terribly long time for a meal. We are not the kind of people to sit around just hang after a meal. I won’t be coming back to spend my money here despite the food being good.
If I could give zero stars I would. Tonight was possibly the worst dining experience I have ever had. I will never go back to Da Nico, and neither will my dining companions. I don't plan on saying nice things about the place either. We arrived slightly in advance of our 5:15 reservation, made so we could get to the Papermill for a 7 pm show. We ordered by 5:30, had appetizers and left at 6:35 our dinners still had not been served and there was no indication that would be happening any time soon. The excuse we were given, with some apologies from our waiter no manager in evidence was that there was a large party in the house. Too bad! You should not have taken our reservation if you did not have the capacity to serve us! Highly disappointing and inexcusable for a restaurant that claims it serves theater goers. We should not even have been asked to pay for our appetizers and soft drinks. Don't make a reservation here if you expect to get out in time to see a show . A manager should have apologized for ruining our evening which was also a 48th wedding anniversary celebration. What a disappointment.
Service was lovely. Everything else was just so ordinary. If I was going out with someone who really wanted to go there I wouldn't make a fuss... but I don't see any reason to go back there
I ordered the baked eggplant appetizer, and to my surprise, it was just a single piece of eggplant as thin as a contact lens for $10.95. My wife chose the Raviol Fatti, which was watery and lacked flavor, and we both agreed that it was disappointing, especially with the soggy mushrooms and the absence of truffle essence. The mussels were decent, but overall, the dishes felt overpriced for the quality offered. The restaurant has a large space that holds great potential, but it seems underutilized and in need of a significant revamp to attract the existing clientele in Millburn. I typically don’t like to criticize restaurants, understanding how challenging it can be to succeed, but it truly feels like they aren’t putting in the effort, settling instead for uninspired and bland food. On a positive note, the BYOB policy is a nice touch.
