Lamberti’s Tutti Toscani

If I could I would probably give this a 3 ½, not 4 stars but it definitely didn’t deserve only a 3.
We went here for Valentine’s Day, they had a special menu for the occasion. They offered nice warm rolls and tomato pie for a bread starter. Both were really good. We also tried the lobster bisque which was more of a creamy tomato based soup. My girlfriend thought it could have had more of a seafood taste, that is also her preference. Me on the other hand, someone who normally doesn’t eat creamy soups loved the consistency and taste of it. I ordered the petite tutti salad, which is their typical Italian style salad with a white balsamic vinaigrette. I felt like it lacked flavor. The dressing needed more vinegar.
We got a special calamari appetizer served with goat cheese and something else. The calamari was probably the most tender I’ve ever had with a real nice crunch.
For our entrees we had the 7 fishes over risotto in a fra Diablo sauce. All the seafood was cooked to perfection. The only gripe would that it needed more heat. To me a fra Diablo should have a bite and this didn’t. I had a chicken dish with a lemon cream sauce covered in mozzarella, asparagus, sautéed spinach and garlic mashed. It was delectable! Will be ordering that again.
Overall it was a very good meal with excellent tentative service. The prices are a little steep, but they offer a sunset menu during the week which looks to be bargain. Will certainly try this place again.

Best Italian in town. They also offer delicious gluten free options for those with intolerance. Great staff who’s dedication shows in their work ethic and food. Owner stops by each and every table, without fail, to see if everything has gone above and beyond our expectations. They always have. Every dish is to die for. You won’t be disappointed. Five stars plus.

We came again this weekend and it was pretty great! The entrees were HUGE and very flavorful, even though I typically don’t eat Italian food so I’m not a great judge. Our appetizer pizza we got was phenomenal along with the bread.
The desserts were tasty, as well. The only negative was the coffee my father had gotten at the end. It was so watered down it was almost humorous they served it in a clear cup. Otherwise, all was well.

The penne vodka rocked my socks off. The service was fast and friendly, the bread was delicious, and the indoor dining room had an eclectic and warm vibe.
My boyfriend and I came here last night around 5:30 pm. We were both craving pasta, so I researched a few places in the area and narrowed it down to this spot. It is right down the street from where I live, so my fingers were crossed that the food wouldn’t disappoint. It definitely exceeded my expectations!
I ordered the penne vodka with chicken and it was out of this world delicious. The sauce was perfectly balanced and the penne was al dente. My boyfriend went with the meat lasagna and was equally impressed with the flavors. The prices were a little higher than I would like to pay ($ 20.50 for my penne and $ 16 for the lasagna), but the portion sizes made up for it.
My boyfriend also started with their house salad and couldn’t stop raving about the homemade dressing. Can’t wait to bring family and friends here whenever they are in the area to visit!

I went here for the first time on Friday with my wife and kids. From start to finish the service was quick and friendly. The food was the best Italian food I have had in a while. They started us out with delicious bread. We ordered the spicy chicken flat bread. The bread was very spicy but definitely good. I ordered the eggplant Parmesan and my wife ordered the monte rosena chicken dish with mashed potatoes instead of pasta. Most definitely the creamiest mashed potatoes I ever tasted. My egg plant parm was perfect. I will definitely go back to this restaurant again.

Amazing food! Large portions, authentic italian. My absolute favorite is penne vodka… Simply perfect.
Location is close to my home but the shopping mall is pretty empty. Don’t be fooled by the location– the food and service is amazing! Takeout is great too!

I wanted a BYOB and my friend wanted to eat outside, so we came here. Years ago we came here frequently. For an appetizer we ordered fried calamari. The waiter asked if we wanted spicy or plain. we ordered spicy. It was $ 11, a tiny portion and came soggy, smothered in some red sauce. Ugh. My pizza and the mussels app were fine. My friend got a sausage-​spinach pasta dish that was just ok and cost almost $ 20. It took forever to get our food and then they rushed us out. Won’t be back.

Visiting during a business trip and we found this on Unilocal with good reviews, so we gave it a try.
Parking is easy — it’s in a nearly deserted strip mall.
We started with the antipasto platter and it easily fed three of us, with a little to spare. It had a good assortment of veggies, cheese, meats, etc. We were happy with the selection.
I had the chicken picatta and was happy with my choice. The flavor was delish, portion size very good and pasta cooked perfectly.
The service was adequate and we left very happy with our visit.

Our favorite family Italian restaurant in Cherry Hill. Wonderful staff and friendly service. Excellent Chicken Parmigiana and seafood dishes. Not a bad dish on the menu. The outside porch is covered and surrounded by potted flowers. Highly recommended.

Went here for lunch today with my fiancé, sister, and her husband. I know this place has been here forever, but it was our first times. Place is BYOB and the outdoor seating is wonderful. Even though you are in a run-​down strip mall, the garden and plants make the patio feel warm and delightful. We ordered the seafood salad, the roasted red peppers, and 2 side Caesar salads to start. Seafood salad was great. So fresh, no smell, and very well balanced. The roasted peppers with cheese was good, but nothing exciting. The Caesar salads were average. The best part of the meal were the pizzas. We ordered the firenze, the buffalo chicken, and the special red all on whole wheat. Each were excellent. Loved the crust. Bill came to $ 67 before tip. Definitely will visit this place again and sit outdoors on a nice summer evening.

Affordable and delicious! I haven’t ordered something that I didn’t like. Grab a bottle of wine and enjoy a great meal. Portions are good too.

I recently went here as part of a girls night, with a total of about 15 in our party. We had reservations, and our table was ready and set for us to sit down when we got there. With our large group, all coming from different areas, it took a while for us all to get there, but our waitress happily came back as many times as necessary to take new drink orders and set us up with plenty of bread and appetizers while we waited for everyone. It”s a fairly casual restaurant, so jeans and a nice shirt/​sweater were perfect. The restaurant is BYO, so we picked at the bread and appetizers while we waited.
Our waitress was good enough to indulge my multiple questions concerning my vegan options, even going to the back to check the ingredients on their pasta packages! Ultimately I ordered the Za Za Zingara and a small house salad, and our waitress (I wish I remembered her name!) made sure there wasn’t any secret cheese anywhere on my dish. For our large party, our meals came out in a reasonable time frame. This restaurant offers not only regular pasta, but also whole wheat and gluten free. I went with the whole wheat penne for my dish. The dish was heavy on the vegetables, just as I like it!
There weren’t any dessert options for me as a vegan, which is not unusual, and was just as well. Overall, I really enjoyed my experience here, and would definitely come back with my husband. There are several nice sounding vegetable pasta dishes I’d like to try.

Lamberti’s Tutti Toscani is tucked away in an old shopping center in the outskirts of Cherry Hill. Our family dined here for my mother’s birthday and everyone had a great time. The portions were large and the food was fresh and tasty — they also brought baskets of different varieties of warm breads, which our daughter really enjoyed.
Had a good time and it was BYOB. Gotta love New Jersey and its Italian restaurants. :)

I love Caffe Aldo Lamberti’s — the higher end sister restaurant of this place. I must be in the minority — maybe I had the «Tuesday night chef» — because my food was just blah. It wasn’t horrible, but maybe because of my love for Café Aldo’s, I came here with expectations way too high. This is a much cheaper place, so I really should be fair. The food did seem fresh and at least two of the three stars are for the excellent customer service. It’s just that my food wasn’t appetizing. The ravioli I ordered (see picture) was drowned in tomato sauce so that I had to scrap some off to take a picture. The sauce was fresh but undercooked so that it was more acidic than it should have been. The portions were quite large, so you can probably get two meals from it. The zucchini sticks I had were mostly batter and they were bland. You may be able to tell from my pictures, the plates were not cleanly presented. You can see a smudge of red sauce on the plate of pasta with Alfredo sauce. The salad plate was also just not fresh looking — it was clean but the dishware just had an old feeling to it that took away from presentation. Disappointing, because the other Unilocal pics looked so good! The restaurant is BYOB which is nice.
Overall, while I will not go here again, I can see the appeal if you are looking for just affordable homestyle Italian food that’s better than the chains. The service was good tho– my server was new but very nice and helpful.

My family dined as a party of 6 at Lamberti’s Tutti Toscani last Saturday night. We had an 8pm reservation but were able to be seated when we arrived a little early. The place was packed! In addition to the indoor dining room, the outdoor patio was open and had heat lamps to fight off the autumn chill.
I’ve been to Caffe Aldo Lamberti on route 70 a handful of times, but this was my first visit to their flagship restaurant. The menu was a little more traditional and it was also BYOB.
Within minutes of our arrival, the specials we were told the specials. The service was consistent and attentive, without being sparse or overbearing.
Prior to placing our orders, we were given that delicious bread that everyone raves about. It tasted like a small slice of tomato pie and even had fresh pieces of garlic. I could have easily made that my meal.
For the table, we started with a large Caprese salad. It was probably the best Caprese salad I’ve ever had. Fresh mozzarella and tomato were doused with oil, vinegar and garlic and plated over a bed of basil and lettuce. The mozzarella was extraordinarily good and both the mozzarella and tomatoes clearly had some time to marinate prior to be served.
For my main, I went with the Veal and Broccoli Rabe Campagnola. It was good but didn’t totally knock my socks off. The dish was a veal scallopine sautéed with extra virgin olive oil, garlic and white with roasted peppers and broccoli rabe. It was served over cheese ravioli. It was great that the garlic came out in fresh pieces, however I was hoping the sauce would have more garlic in it as the flavor fell a little flat. The veal was nice and tender and came in two decent sized pieces. The dish came over 3 or 4 pieces of ravioli as well. Good just not fantastic.
Being quite full, we all passed on dessert.
I’d like to give Tutti Toscania 3.5. Since that’s not possible, I’ll round up to 4 based on my overall experience and the general enjoyment of my group.

Nice looking place. Just had lunch with my daughters. My daughter wanted Fettuccini Alfredo.
First question I ask the waiter: why is the kids’ Fettuccini Alfredo $ 8.00 and the one listed under main meals on the menu is $ 7.00? The descriptions are the same.
Waiter’s answer: «I don’t know, I didn’t make the menu.» What? Really? You didn’t make the menu? I’m sorry, I don’t know why I mistook you for the creator of the menu. You look like a waiter. You are our waiter. Silly me! No follow up whatsoever. Jerk.
Service and food were average, with service approaching below average. Ambiance was a bit better than average.
Doesn’t matter how good the food is. Darn shame.

Tuttis Toscani is my go to Italian place– well go to restaurant in general. I probably come here at least once or twice a month.
All meals start off with their delicious homemade bread, and if you finish your basket they are happy to bring you more!
The menu here is huge, and full of all the Italian favorites and a few originals. My personal go– to is the Tre P– a tortellini dish. I recently tired the short rib and mushroom risotto during the cherry hill restaurant week, and may have found a new favorite dish.
If you like to eat dinner early– you’re in luck! Tuttis has a 3 course Sun Set Menu, only $ 16.50 a person. This includes a soup/​salad, your choice of 9 different entrees, and either a cannoli or tiramisu.
Tutti also has an awesome dessert assortment. After you finish your meal they’ll bring you the tray of all they desserts they have that night– personally I love being able to see something before I order it. All their desserts are fresh, and they don’t always carry the same things.
Tutti has indoor and outdoor seating. This is also a great place to host parties as they have different areas they can section off.
And to top it all off, its BYOB– and they don’t charge a fee for glasses or uncorking.
This is one of the best Italian places in Cherry Hill.

Over the past few years, I’ve had countless meals here and each one never disappointed.
This past weekend, my sister and I had a luncheon here for our parents 25^th Wedding Anniversary. The day could not have been better!
Tutti has amazing food, a great staff, and a lovely ambience!

I really do love this place, I’ve been here probably 5 or 6 times. Unfortunately, their penne alla vodka is so good, it is hard for me to be satisfied anywhere else. I’ve also had the chicken picatta and calamari which don’t disappoint. Large portions, reasonable prices and great bread! What more could a girl ask for?
They have a nice patio for warmer weather AND It’s BYOB, plus 15 bonus points.

Solid four stars for Tutti Toscani.
Chicken entrees were delicious, wait wasn’t too long on a Sunday night, and the atmosphere was comfortable and, obviously, Tuscan-​inspired. My «dark side of the moon» chocolate cake dessert was exceptional as well.
While the noise level was high, the tables weren’t right on top of each other, which was nice. This place must be a great dinner spot in the summertime, too, with the outdoor seating area.
My only qualm? The service. I really feel that a good server can make or break the meal. My server, while nice, was often absent. As in, he didn’t stop by once to ask how the dishes tasted. After delivering the food, the next stop was to ask if we needed boxes. He still got the full tip, but I just wish he had been a little more personable and attentive. I don’t think he smiled once! Maybe he was just having a bad night.
I’ll stop back, likely this summer. The food is worth it.
