I have been going to Caffė Espresso for many years. The food is always fresh and on point....the amount that you get is more than enough, there are specials that change daily so the variety is fantastic. Always a perfect place for lunch..

For the little cafe this once was to the hidden ..and possibly only.. bastion of homestyle Italian food. Order the prosciutto and fresh Mozzerella with hot peppers and Balsamic

Call at noon on Friday to confirm they have the Eggplant Parmesan then get there as soon as you can; you wont regret it.Maria and a family are an institution in the Ironbound.

Came here for lunch and had the eggplant parm with spaghetti and it was delicious! This is an old school Italian hole in the wall with authentic Italian/American specialties! The 4 Nonas Cooking and preparing the food in the back made me think of my childhood! The meatballs are honestly as good as my mother-in-laws! Great place with great prices!!!

You just can’t go wrong with this place! All of the food is authentic and delicious. The daily specials rotate throughout the week.You HAVE to try the Eggplant on Wednesday’s and Fridays! My favorite dish.And don’t leave without a cappuccino! It’s the best in the area!

Now this is the place to get authentic and flavorful home style Italian cooking. The prices are so reasonable and the portions here are big. The most popular dish is eggplant parmigiana and it tastes great! There’s a different daily special and don’t miss out on ordering the Giambotta sandwich for breakfast. Then last but not least, make sure to get cappuccino because it has a smooth taste, aroma and presentation. The restaurant is very clean, the staff and owner are always friendly and there is on the street parking.
