Rave: Casola’s Italian Restaurant in Bloomsbury, NJ

Looking for great Italian food and a cozy sit-down dining experience near exit 3 off Rt 78? Take your fam or your sweetie out for a good meal at Casola’s in Bloomsbury, NJ.

To get there from Route 22 by Walmart in Phillipsburg, just meander down Route 173 heading East. Keep going until you see signs for Bloomsbury and Church Road. Make a right at Church Road which is also Route 579.

Immediately go over the little bridge, and just up on the right you’ll see some festive lights. That’s the restaurant. You can park in front of it, or tuck your car in on one of the side roads.

If it’s chilly out, get a table inside where it’s warm and cozy.

Casola’s references their Neapolitan heritage when describing the type of Italian food they serve.

Whether or not you are aware of regional differences in Italian cuisine, just know that you’ll find well prepared versions of all your Italian-American favorites.

I personally have a preference for Calamari ala Sophia off the appetizer menu.

(Looks pretty damn good, right?)

I’m also a fan of their eggplant parmigiana.

One sure way to know if an Italian restaurant is any good is to bring my dad, the food connoisseur. I introduced him to Casola’s last month, and it is now his favorite in the area.

Here he is, enjoying some Pomodoro across from my eggplant parm.

Whether you’re up for an Italian classic, are looking to go light with a fresh salad, or plan to share a made to order pizza for the table… just know that you will definitely leave this restaurant well fed, happy and satisfied.
