Reviews for Scalini Fedeli in Chatham, NJ
We've always wanted to try a highend Italian restaurant. And since we were gifted a $$$ for an occasion, we decided to try... Scalini Fedeli since it was only around a 30 minutes drive. The restaurant is on a main residential street. And if you are notfamiliar with the location, or do not use a GPS, you may miss it. It's valet parking only with only 1 valet; and on the night wewent, was a bit large and on the heavy side. Before taking the key to our vehicle, the valet politely pointed us to theentrance. The door to the restaurant resembles a side door on an average suburban house. It is on the side of the building withno awning or porch. Upon entering the dimly lit foyer, we were greeted by a lady who asked for our reservation. We were thenaccompanied to our table. A waiter handed us our menus and picked up the spare table settings. A maître d' then came to ourtable and asked if this is our first time and if there is an occasion. We answered yes to both questions. He went over the menusaying it's a 5 course meal (although the menu says 4) and enumerated the specials. He also mentioned that we should order ourdessert with our meal to cut down on prep time. When I asked about the discrepancy, he simply said, "we give you 5 for the sameprice anyway" without really explaining if it's a seasonal thing or not. He asked if we want to have any wine and we said togive us a bit if time to peruse through the menus. While going over the menu, we noticed a nicely dressed couple midway throughtheir meal. I saw the 3-inch thick 16 oz pork chop the man was having and decided that's what I want as well. After a fewmoment, the maître d' returned and took our meal selection; we decided not to get any wine this time around. The first of 5dishes came. It was called Ecuadorian shrimp. It was 1 large shrimp prepared as described in the menu. Followed by our choice ofsmall entrée. I happened to have picked the Ecuadorian shrimp and to my surprise, it was prepared different Read more
One of the best Italian restaurants we have ever eaten at. Compliments to the Chef. Impeccable service. Only drawback is the... rest rooms are on the second floor. We will return for sure. Read more

Amazing Italian fine dining. The atmosphere is great, the food is amazing, the service was on point, it was an all around great... experience. I had the pappardelle with ragu as a primi, and the veal chop milanese as a secundi. Both were outstanding. Thehouse the restaurant is located in is filled with charm and decorated in a warm and inviting way. Cant wait to go back. Read more
A true fine dining experience that rivals the best in the globe. We had extra guests at the last minute for a celebration and... they graciously accommodated and truly spoiled us. We love Scalini Fedeli in Chatham, NJ. Read more
One of the best meals NJ has to offer. I have been to the Tribeca location a handful of times and this location is just as good.... It is also about $60 cheaper for the prefix so if you are trying to fine dine on a budget you can't beat the $100 price. Smokedtuna, shrimp, pasta, salad, sorbet, porkchop, cheesecake for $100. All the food was perfect, as you can see from my photos. Therestaurant itself is also very beautiful. I would highly recommend it. Read more
