Excellent food, never disappoints, service is attentive, staff is very welcoming, would not hesitate to recommend this BYOB as a well needed addition to dining in Northern NJ. Menu items are delicious , portions are generous , and the daily specials it difficult to decide upon what to order. Hopefully your tablemates will share so you can try multiple dishes!

“I recently dined at Sergio’s Missione and had a wonderful experience! From the moment we walked in, the staff was warm, welcoming, and attentive. The ambiance is cozy yet upscale, perfect for a special night out or just a lovely meal. We tried a few dishes from the menu, and each one was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The pasta was perfectly cooked, and the sauces were rich and delicious. I especially loved the Chicken Parm– hands down one of the best I’ve ever had! Sergio’s Missione is definitely a gem, and I highly recommend it for anyone looking for authentic Italian cuisine with exceptional service. I can’t wait to come back!”
