Teresa Caffe is a delightful trattoria in Princeton's Palmer Square. Our friends chose it and we're very glad they did! The staff were so friendly and welcoming even though they were all very busy and the restaurant was packed. Packed but not overly loud. The server Theresa was great and the space is convivial and nicely appointed. The salads and main courses were delicious and the wines by the glass paired nicely. The macchiato I had was properly small and was a perfect finish to the meal. We'll look forward to going back. Recommended!

I met up with a friend. Definitely amazing! I ordered Penne Pecorino and Pollo and Orzo YUMMY !!!!!! I live in New York and I'm definitely planning on coming back again. HIGHLY RECOMMEND

Unpretentious, classic pizza and pasta wine bar located in the heart of Princeton. My parents and I wanted a place with good, hearty food without being too fancy, and Teresa's was definitely it. Service was very quick, and there's plenty of seating in this restaurant. Pizza is made at the bar, was thin crust, and perfectly crispy. Pasta was cooked al dente, which I prefer as to not be overcooked, and the lumache vodka pasta was amazing! No one seems to be talking about this restaurant in Princeton, but I think it's a gem that you need to check out.

My family and I came to Princeton for lunch on a snowy day. The restaurant we were targeting didn't work out and decided to go to Teresa's Pizza and Wine Bar. We were glad we did. This was the perfect spot for a family lunch. The ambiance was cozy yet vibrant, creating an inviting atmosphere for a relaxed meal on a snowy day. We ordered the mushroom pizza and the pepperoni pizza, and both were absolutely outstanding. My daughter ordered the meatball and it was equally as good. The mushroom pizza had a rich, earthy flavor, with fresh mushrooms, perfectly melted cheese, and a delightful crust that struck the right balance between crispy and chewy. Add little more cheese and hot pepper flakes, you will have a very good bite. The pepperoni pizza was just as impressive--loaded with pepperoni that had a great smoky flavor, complemented by a slightly spicy tomato sauce. Overall, the experience was fantastic. Great food, friendly service, and a warm atmosphere make this a must-visit for pizza lovers in Princeton. We will definitely be back for sure.

This spot feels homey and elegant at the same time! I've been here multiple times when I'm in the mood for wood fired pizza! Ambiance: modern yet rustic decor! Plenty of seating indoors and outdoors. Service: the staff was friendly and was very attentive throughout the meal. Food: Chicken Milanese: chicken was crispy and hot to perfection! The salad was well tossed with tomato's, balsamic vinegar and mozzarella! Sausage Pizza: the crust was perfectly chewy and and crispy. The sausage topping was very flavorful and well seasoned.

We came here on Christmas Eve and were seated pretty quickly. Our server was nice but he was moving around so much it made us feel a little rushed as he was a bit impatient when we were ordering. He told us the specials and I ordered their special pizza, the pizza Bianca. This was phenomenal! It was a classic cheese pizza topped with soaked eggplant in milk and then fried, dollops of ricotta, Calabrian chili oil and hot honey. I normally don't order vegetarian meals too often but I would order this everywhere if it was offered. 10/10! Lumanche alle vodka: 7/10, pasta was undercooked and it didn't have the creaminess I was looking for like I've had before. Pancini: 5/10, it wasn't horrible but there was a weird aftertaste to the sauce that I don't know how to describe. The scallops were nice but the sauce ruined the pasta for me. I wouldn't order this again. Tiramisu: 9/10, it was really good! The filling was delicious and creamy. The marscapone flavor shined through. The cake could be a bit firmer it was a bit too soggy for me. I need to mention that we ordered a gluten free pasta as a child in our party had a gluten allergy and unfortunately he did come in contact with gluten in his food. The manager did apologize and told us that it was cooked with separate water and that his chef took special precautions. He comped us for the meal but I would just be cautious about ordering gluten free here if you have a severe allergy. Thankfully he doesn't have a severe allergy so all was well :)

Heading to Princeton and wanted to try a place new to us. The cute vibe drew us in and we felt cozy in a corner tucked away from the busy bar. The menu was simply amazing - pizza,of course, pasta, chicken and more. The meatball appetizer had our table raving! A few people shared 'better than my grandmother's' and I had to agree. The wine, Prosecco and drink menu met the needs of every one at the table and the Montepulciano red was loved by many. I ordered a sausage pizza with vegan mozzarella, since it's never on the menu, and I LOVED every bite! Had to restrain myself from consuming it all in one sitting The bolognese was devoured as was the lumanche alla vodka No room for dessert - this time Highlight: the waitlist! We added ourselves on as we drove into town and waited less than 5 minutes when we arrived. We will be back!

An absolute gem in the center of downtown Princeton. Absolutely fresh pasta and pizzas here, great salads, a fantastic selection of wines and beer! We go here all the time when we visit Princeton, such a fun place! You'll walk in and you will just love the ambiance, the big beautiful selection of wines It's also right in the heart of town across from the Nassau Inn and also across the street from the Hulfish parking lot. Had a perfect experience here, really fun to split the things on their menu! For an appetizer we split their Quattro Formaggio pizza! Oh my God, mozzarella, fontina, herb, ricotta, Gorgonzola, hazelnuts, and topped with hot honey! Wow! It's more of a personal pizza size so fear or not if you want to split it with somebody as an appetizer! Not sure if there is anything better you could have for an app! The hot honey really pushed me over the top, put me right in heaven! Next up came the chicken milanese! We split this too! This came with two very large, lightly fried chicken cutlets! I usually do not order fried food, but this was so lightly fried. It came with arugula, mozzarella, red onions, cherry tomatoes, with a balsamic glaze on top! I loved this dish. It was also quite filling and really hit the spot! Finally came our main course which we also split. Drumroll for this one! The gnocchi eggplant, wow what a must order!!! Gotta say this really put me over the top and we thought it was just like when we were in Sorrento, Italy! Same flavor absolutely delicious order this one without a doubt! Another vegetarian dish by the way! I'm not a vegetarian, but they have lots of choices here!! I can't recommend this place high enough if you're looking for a great spot right in the center of town that has it all! Terrific food, terrific atmosphere, with a gigantic selection of wines and drinks!! Oh service was excellent too!

Never been let down at Teresa's over the past 15 years. They have the cutest outdoor seating in Princeton and the food is phenomenal. Service is usually quick and friendly. The Balsamico pasta dish is my go-to, but the specials are always great. Colorful salads, the best minestrone I've had in years, good pizzas, and pasta dishes that are just as good if not better than my Italian family's.
