Michaelangelo's Ristorante
- Much of the Northern New Jersey Italian cuisine has roots in
North Newark, a place introduced to the world on The Soprano's
as a destination, of unique character and old world charm. Many
from this neighborhood fled after the riots in 1967 and
traveled up Bloomfield Avenue for safer surroundings and a
better life but many stayed. I decided to seek out an
Italian lunch early one afternoon. I found a place
called Michaelangelo's, and with a name like that at least they
know what inspiring means, so I decided this was the place to
try.
Michaelangelo's Ristorante in
Newark, NJ ,offered me a whole lot for a very good price.
I must say that the Italian food in New Jersey is by far
the best in the United States and North Jersey has some of the
best. Sure this neighborhood has changed but I'm
delighted to say that family traditional North Jersey Italian
cuisine still survives in this area.
