Theresa's BYOB, one of the oldest Italian restaurants in Westfield, is a good place to go for a good Italian meal at a very reasonable price. The decor though is not up to par with the food; it has a tiny, dark dining area and during the busy weekends, your apt to find it crowded and noisy. The Pastas are made fresh on the premises and the red sauces are made with the finest ingredients. They are the reason many locals come here. They offer generous portions of well prepared dishes. Try the specials, they tend to be creative and well prepared. The recommended appetizers are; The Crispy Calamari with mixed Baby Greens, and Roasted Pepper-Caper Aiol; The Grilled Day Boat Scallops with Shaved Fennel, Fresh Herbs, and Lemon-Blood Orange Vinaigrette; and The Grilled Portobello Mushroom with Arugula, Parmesan, and Marinated Tomatoes. The recommended entrees are: The Cappellini with Shrimp, Toasted Garlic, Sicilian Green Olives, and Chunky Plum Tomato Sauce; The Rigatoni with Broccoli Rabe, Cannellini Beans, Italian Sausage, and Sun-dried Tomatoes; and The Veal Scallopini with Marsala Mushroom Sauce, Croquette, and Seasonal Vegetables. Save room for dessert. Theresas desserts are homemade and sumptuous. The recommended desserts are; The Banana Bread Pudding; The Warm Apple Crustada with Vanilla Gelato and Galliano Caramel; and The Orange Almond Cheesecake with Creme Anglaise and a Crispy Tuile. The service is friendly and attentive. |
