Cozy Italian place that doesn't break the bank! We love Via Sposito, the food is consistently good and BYOB is a major plus. There are tons of Italian joints in Red Bank and we find ourselves here more than the others. They run a good catering special in the winter, too.

Have visited their location in Old Bridge which was great too. First time at this one in Red Bank. Great atmosphere and great food. Freshed baked bread was light and very good with butter and oil. The Caesar salad was huge and excellent. My chicken was marsala was a very nice portion as well which came with mashed potatoes and sauteed spinach. Overall experience was excellent.

Honestly the average rating does not do justice. We ordered two pizzas and they were better than the top names in NJ (Razza etc.). The mozzarella cheese, the sauce, peppers and garlic delicately balanced the coal fired thin-crust pizzas. Olive oil for bread was also special in a subtle way. Understated ambiance compared to more showy restaurants around it.

Very good Italian restaurant, kinda small but it’s very comforting. Their pizza is incredible because they have a Wood Brick Oven making their pizza taste incredible, they even got a little stand and cutter for the pizza when brought to your table. They have incredible calimari and their main courses are great. We had some pastas that were very good. If you’re heading to Red Bank, this is a restaurant you need to eat at.

This was the best pizza I’ve had in a long time. Thin crust so you won’t get full of just bread and the toppings tasted so fresh.
