Reviews for Arturo's in Maplewood, NJ
I came to the restaurant with my kids and their friends for Sunday lunch 12:30. They only serve take out at Sunday lunch hour. I... ordered a couple of pizzas and a salad and asked them if we could just pull up a couple of chairs at the end and eat there. Theysaid they need to set up soon. It?s an excuse I understood so we went across the street and sat on the benches to finish lunch.later at 2pm they weren?t doing anything about setting up. This wasn?t a problem for me regardless. Getting our food there wereno napkins and no utensils. I sent one of my kids back to get some. He was given 4 pieces of napkins for five people. I went inagain and asked for more, was given 3 more napkins and a couple of folks. Then here comes the worst part. See pictures below.It?s the farmers salad I got. I picked and ate what I could pick out decent enough, but the majority of the green leaves wereyellow and rotten. I took it back and showed them just to say to mind the quality for future. They guy looked into the salad andasked ?what?s wrong with it?? What?s wrong with it!!!!! He couldn?t even know what?s wrong with it! To serve the kind ofquality is wrong enough, and not to see the fact is really something that turned me off completely!!! He said ?I could offer youa refund?. A very reluctant gesture. I didn?t take the refund. Won?t eat there again! Read more
Absolutely amazing experience. They don?t take reservations, had a short wait of about 20 mins for 2 around 7:00 on a Tuesday... night. To start we had the crostini and the sautéed greens. For entrees we had the zucca special pizza (seasonal zucchini) andthe wild boar Ragu pasta. Everything was absolutely delicious can?t believe this place has gone under my radar for this long.Will be back very soon! Read more
Tasty dishes at Arturo's. The restaurant is BYOB so be sure to stop by a liquor store beforehand. They get busy on Friday and... Saturday nights so it's worth booking ahead. The pizzas are high quality and come big enough to share a small one if you're notso hungry. Alternatively if you get a large it's possible to share between 2 easily. The salad is delicious as well as the meatboard. All the servers were very friendly and helpful to all our needs. Read more
The Pizza was Excellent, but way over prices like most personal sized Pizza these days. The Pizza was 5, but they lost me on the... presentation and delivery. I had order behind a table outside in the rain. Was not able to go inside and see the Wood Fired ovenor to see the Pizzaiolos at work. As one of the Top Neopolitan Pizzas in the State, would have loved to see some of the process.Parking was aweful on top.of everything else. Loved the Pizza hated the Experience.. Read more
Bosco pizza was amazing. Probably one of the best pizzas I ever had. The fontina cheese really brought out the flavors and the... fresh mushrooms are delicious. Margherita pie was decent. Service could be a little better. Read more
Arturo?s is a must! Delicious pizza that is made to perfection. The crust is just incredible and the white pie is the best I... have ever eaten. It has subtle notes of sea salt that brings out the other flavors. The staff is super helpful and friendly. Theatmosphere is relaxed and inviting. This is a must for those that love good food!

It?s a great little restaurant, the pizza was very good. The only reason why I?m not giving it 5 stars is just because I was... expecting a little more since I read some of the reviews and is almost at 5 stars, so I took my mom here for her birthday.There?s a small menu, not so much to choose from but it?s BYOB so you can bring your wine bottle. Make sure you call to see ifthey?re open because the hours they have on google is not updated. Overall a great restaurant to enjoy it with friends andfamily ?? Read more
We ordered the Bosco Pizza and we added their homemade sausage as an extra topping and it was delicious! The Caesar salad was... made with kale, that was so fresh and dressing was so tasty! The wait was a little to excessive and especially for been sohungry from our trip, but it was Saturday night and they gave us complementary appetizer. We?ll definitely come back before wereturn home to try some of their pasta dinners. Read more
