  First time here and the food was fantastic and the service was great. There was a musician with a great voice singing. I had the creamy pesto gnocchi and my husband has the chicken marsala and the gnocchi was sooo pillowly soft. I will totally be back when in the area.

  Had a late lunch here mid week. Tiani (I apologize if that's misspelled) helped us set up outside for 4 and was attentive and personable. Food on the lunch menu is more limited than the dinner menu, but was still very good. The Lasagna was quite meaty compared to some restaurants. It's BYOB so bring it if you want it! Prices are reasonable.

  05/08/2026 Stopped in before heading over to the Mayo PAC with friends. This was our first time here. We'd passed by many times walking around Morristown, but never stopped. We're all glad we did. We were seated downstairs, which was a little 'basementy" (not a real word)... but not terrible either. It was a bit more quiet than it was upstairs, so it evens out. We had 2 orders of Chicken vino bianco, 2 orders of branzini (o), one order of Veal piccata and my bucatini with clams, shrimp and bay scallops. (in a nice white wine sauce) and everyone enjoyed their meal. Decent sized portions and very good service will probably find us back here next time we're in the Morristown area. ... and it's a BYOB.

  Food and service were excellent. Enjoyed a wonderful Easter dinner. The only detractor was their sound system. They clearly had feedback from many diners - they kept moving the portable speaker around the place. Just invest in a better system and this is a go to place!

  I have waited a very long time to post this review but it has lingered on my mind for almost a year. My boyfriend and I walk around Morristown often on weekends without plans. We approached pavesi on a summer weekend before the dinner rush. We saw that the patio was empty and only a couple of tables were inside. We approached the host desk and asked for a table for 2. The hostess took one look at us and said they were booked. She did not look at her screen, she did not ask if we were planning to do a long dinner or be in and out. I worked in restaurants for many years- from busboy to manager and those are basic things I would expect given the restaurant was empty. We left, went to buy a bottle of wine, ate at Guerrieros, who was actually packed but still found a table for us, and when we walked back an hour and a half later, Pavesi was still slow. I’m not sure why the hostess didn’t even attempt to offer us a table or serve us. I think she looked at us, 2 young Latinos that were not dressed up, and she did not care for us to be there. Her mannerisms and her attitude when speaking to us was not friendly, in fact we both left feeling very off about the way in which she told us they were booked. I worked in fine dining many years and I do not see another explanation except the hostess did not want us there. I’d like to share my experience in the hopes that this does not happen to anyone else and if it has we should be sharing. I work in town and live in the area and sad to say I won’t be giving this place a second shot.
