  it's very slow service, but very good.  the stuffed artichoke is great, as are all the pasta dishes.  i don't eat veal, but the veal parm is supposedly great as well.  an old school go to.

  Very disappointed with this restaurant.  We went twice and both times were terrible.  The dining room is very small, only about 10 tables.  That's not a bad thing.  Small restaurants could be very cozy.  
  
  My martini arrived in a large wine glass with three little olives at the bottom complete with a large white straw.  We should have asked for the check and left at that point.  I was in the mood for clams on the half shell and that's why we chose Umberto's.  10 minutes after placing our order the waiter came back and said that they were out of clams.  I ordered another appetizer which took 20 minutes longer to come out.  We waited another 30 minutes after we finished our appetizers for our salad and entrees which both came out at the same time.  The food was uninspired and seemed more like food you'd get at a pizzeria.  The cesar salad had the worst bottled dressing imaginable.  And if it was homemade and not bottled, Heaven help the chef.  The womens bathroom was one step above the bathroom at the local Exxon station.  Needless to say, we will not be visiting this restaurant again.

  been here 3 times in the past 3-4 years, very small...not many people..it is more of a early dinner place. Prices are low..but the company was not good...some lady was being typical Jersey Trash...my date went outside to use the phone and heard her on her phone yelling about child support. Then when she came back in she was in rare form and scared her own date off!..
  
  Food wasn't so great this time around asked for chicken breast. there was two..thin  sliced.. pieces of them...pasta and the sauce was good tho!
