POINT PLEASANT BEACH: The best Italian food isn’t in North Jersey. It’s right here on the Jersey Shore! Spanos Ristorante Italiano has the best Italian food you’ll ever have. From their delicious cheeseboard appetizer, to their homemade mozzarella, amazing sauce, perfectly cooked entrees, and mouthwatering desserts you’re in for a special treat. Chef Joe Spano has been cooking his whole life. It’s not a job for Chef Spano it’s a passion. He will personally come to each table, greet his guests and ask how the food is. The pasta, and mozzarella is handmade daily so it’s nice and fresh! I recently had their special Short Rib lasagna that was out of this world. My favorite entrees from Spanos are their flounder franchise, rigatoni vodka, and stuffed chicken vodka. Chef Spano’s olive oil cake, and Nutella bread pudding is an amazing way to end your dinner. From the service, food, and atmosphere there is nothing better than Spano’s!
