I am so excited this opening will happen! About a year ago, we were lucky to meet the owners who brought us the most fabulous focaccia for our trip back to Manhattan. They spoke of their dream which is now becoming a reality and I urge anyone in the area (or even not in the area) to visit. You will not be disappointed. The pride these artisans have in their craft will be evident and you also be greeted with warmth.
I've had the pleasure of knowing the Lesina family for many years, and their passion for authentic Italian cuisine has always been evident in every meal they've shared. The opening of Apulia Risto-Pizza is a dream come true not only for them but for all of us who cherish genuine, lovingly prepared Italian food. The care they put into their dishes—from the hand-stretched mozzarella to their signature focaccia—is truly a labor of love. I couldn't be happier for them and recommend everyone to experience the warmth and excellence of their new restaurant. Congratulations to my dear friends on this wonderful new adventure!
Stepping into Apulia Risto-Pizza is like being transported back to our beloved Southern Italy. Every detail—from the vibrant colors to the rustic decor—perfectly captures the essence of our homeland. The atmosphere is a vivid reminder of the picturesque landscapes and rich culture that define our roots. We are immensely proud and excited for Daniella and the entire team as they embark on this new venture. The passion and dedication they have poured into making this dream a reality are evident in every aspect of the restaurant. Wishing them all the success they truly deserve!
Having known Daniella and her family for over 15 years, I've been a witness to the unfolding of a beautiful dream. Dining at their home, I've always been captivated by their stories of their hometown and the rich Italian culture they cherish so deeply. Now, seeing Apulia Risto-Pizza come to life is truly inspiring. The restaurant is more than just a place to eat; it’s a manifestation of their lifelong passion and a slice of Southern Italy right here in NJ. I believe in this dream so strongly that I've joined the team, hosting one day a week just to be part of this incredible journey. I couldn't be more proud of my friends and their new venture. Come experience the magic of their hospitality for yourself!
