Barone's Tuscan Grill
21 Route 31, Pennington, NJ 08534
(609) 818-0012

Some restaurants display tempting desserts at the entrance to the dining room, but the owner of Villa Barone had a better idea. Here you see a beautifully arranged antipasto that changes with the seasons. Recently the restaurant included a crisp fennel salad, each slice a slim, ribbed C of the palest green to ivory; a wheel of Pecorino Romano studded with the occasional milk crystal; roasted red peppers gleaming with oil; dusky brown Portobello mushrooms; grilled long hot peppers; a bean, onion and arugula salad; a mozzarella and tomato salad; marinated artichoke hearts; and juicy olives. ~ Karla Cook, NY Times, September 3, 2006
