Nunzio's Ristorante Rustico
All week long before I went to Nunzio’s in Collingswood , people had been telling me how good it was. Everyone that I talked to said that it was a great meal and that I would love it. A restaurant has to mess up pretty bad to make me unhappy, and that was not the case Nunzio’s, but I was definitely not as satisfied as I thought I would be. The meal as a whole was simply average at best, and for the price that my uncle paid for the meal, I definitely do not think it was worth it, but there were definitely some highlights.
The grilled calamari appetizer was not very good. The calamari had flavor, but it lacked texture and seasoning. My cousin’s tuna carpaccio was phenomenal though. I ordered the dover
The one star of the meal for me was the dessert that I ordered. I ordered a chocolate soufflé cake with strawberries and a vanilla gelato on top. The entire dessert was incredibly rich and decadent. The molten chocolate center oozed all over the plate and when it mixed together with the vanilla gelato, a match made in heaven was born.
Nunzio’s was an average meal for way too high of a price. I know that there is better Italian in the area because I have tasted it. Give Nunzio’s a try once if you really want to see for yourself, but you would be better served to go to Tre Famiglia or La Locanda for a cheaper and more delicious and authentic Italian meal. Cheers!
