" What a pleasant surprise! I can't believe I found such a hidden gem in Newark. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, perfect for a cozy meal. I loved the pizza; the crust was crispy and full of flavor, just like my nonna used to make. The service was top-notch as well, with our server going above and beyond to accommodate us. Highly recommend Ellie's Bistro for anyone looking for authentic Italian food! " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Ellie's Bistro on a whim and wasn't disappointed! The atmosphere was lively yet intimate, and the service was attentive. I had the grilled chicken salad and it was fantastic. The dressing was perfect. I'm looking forward to coming back, maybe trying their famous pizza next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" Overall a good experience. The food was pretty tasty and had a home-cooked feel. I loved their attention to detail! The ravioli was especially flavorful. The ambiance of the place is just right, though it can get busy. I’ll definitely be back to try more from the menu. " (*Curated Review*)

" I enjoyed my time at Ellie's Bistro. The food was delicious and the prices were reasonable. I ordered the chicken marsala, which was well-cooked and flavorful, although a bit on the salty side. Service was friendly, and the ambiance adds to the overall quality of the experience. Would recommend for a laid-back dinner. " (*Curated Review*)

" A charming little spot! The staff was incredibly friendly, the food was comforting, and the environment was perfect for a casual night out. I had the pesto pasta and it was delicious! I would say the prices are a bit high, but worth it for the quality. Definitely a place I plan to visit again soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" Ellie's Bistro offers such an authentic Italian experience. The spaghetti and meatballs were cooked to perfection, and I could tell the sauce was homemade. The only downside was the noise level since it can get pretty crowded, but that's just part of its charm! Service was very attentive, making it a lovely dining experience overall. " (*Curated Review*)

" After hearing so much buzz about Ellie's, I finally made the trip, and it did not disappoint! The wood-fired bread that came out first was like a small taste of heaven. I ordered the Bianca pizza and it was phenomenal! The service was quick and friendly, and the overall vibe of the place made it even better. Can't wait to come again, perhaps for lunch next time! " (*Curated Review*)
