    Great value for the price. We both had the turkey bacon, egg and cheese sandwich. Everything was fresh and hot off the griddle. Nothing tasted like it had been pre-made and then warmed. Plus the owner was super friendly. For the price, considering everything is made to order -- this is a great bargain and yummy!

    The daily specials are so fresh. Pasta is perfectly cooked, meatballs and sauce are super delicious. Complete plate with three meatballs and bread. Big meatballs. Good ones. I'm still eating. Can't stop.  5 stars.

    If you're walking through here stop here for lunch or even breakfast they have avocado toasts and delicious coffees.
    I'm going to be a regular here.

    Buyer Beware! This business runs an extremely shady and possibly illegal operation.  Frank( the business owner) charges the 4% credit card surcharge to the customer without any notification( posted or itemized on the receipt). For example, if I buy something for 10$ the register rings up as 10.70 based on tax, later looking at credit card statement shows 11.13$.  This needs to be communicated to the customer at point of sale!

    My office is upstairs @ the Gateway Center and when I'm working in Newark, I always get coffee and lunch here. Frankie is great and The coffee is authentic Italian and food is very good. Don't miss
    This place!

    The original Caffee Margherita (next to Dunkin Donuts) serves excellent pasta.  Caffe Margherita II opened up in Gateway Center 2 lobby a few months back.  I occasionally venture to Caffe Margherita II to buy coffee in the afternoons.  However, today, I decided to buy a brownie as well.  It's $1 for a small brownie (not a terrible price point for Gateway Center); however, the brownie tasted so hard and stale.  I threw it out after a bite.  Given that today is Monday, were the brownies left-over from last week?  It surely taste like the brownie was left-over and re-used/recycle for sale this week.  

    I guess there isn't much of a thing as residual pasta (again, their pasta tastes great).  However, very disappointed that the brownie tasted like it was still for sale well past its expiration date.  No more sweets from Caffee Margherita II for me.  I'll stick to pasta from the original store.
