Description



DeAnna's is well known locally for fresh pasta and sauces. DeAnna's has now moved from their cozy home on Swan Street in Lambertville to a new space only about three (3) blocks North now on Franklin Street in Lambertville.

The most notable changes are that DeAnna's now has a full bar including an affordable wine selection and accepts major credit cards. Along with the new building is a dedicated parking lot which is a big plus in Lambertville.

The cozy and intimate setting has remained although the location has changed.

A Lambertville Gem
If you haven't tried DeAnna's Chicken with Gorgonzola Sauce you have missed one of the best dishes on the menu. Her homemade pasta is always fresh and my husband can't have enough of her Bolognese Sauce. Try the Ricotta Cheese Cake for dessert, the best we ever had. Very comfortable seating as long as you don't get the table by the kitchen door. The host is pompous, probably a relative, but we will still go back for the fabulous food.    [28 Feb 2006 18:33:32]

Best Italian in Lambertville
We live in Manhattan and eat at DeAnna's whenever we visit Lambertville - a real jem! Delicious food with an interesting selection of upscale specials served in a cozy welcoming atmosphere. The place has class with a knowledgeable staff and professional hostess. We dine at Mario Batali owned restaurants often (Babbo and DelPosto) and you can't dine there for less than DeAnna's as "Anonymous" stated in the review of Jan. 9, 2007.

Wonderful food, romantic atmosphere, but insincere greeter
We went to De Anna's tonight for dinner for a romantic date and were immediately put off by the hostess who seemed to look us over from head to toe before giving us the least appealing table (and we were the first of the patrons to arrive for dinner). But the atmosphere was quite romantic, even where we were sitting. We got the garlic bread, stuffed cherry peppers, spinach ravioli with marinara and chicken/pasta/marinara. We thought the food was very good and the marinara sauce was divine (brought back memories of Italy - very authentic and fresh). So I would recommend this place pretty highly, as long as you're not too sensative about the coolness of the staff.    [14 Jan 2007 00:44:31]

Blah
I ate here once and was totally unimpressed with the food and service.
While I go to Lambertville about two to three times a month to eat I have never even considered trying DeAnna's again - it was that bad. If you want to eat in the dark, go here.    [20 Feb 2004 13:37:22]

Not really special
I just ate at De Anna's and found the experience rather uneventful. Cute atmosphere, nice location. It really stops there. The "homemade" pasta certainly didn't taste it, if it was indeed homemade. The waitstaff are less than pleasant, and the "special dessert" was not as good as the box cake one makes at home. I guess if you've never had Italian dessert, you might want to call a sheetcake with ricotta on the bottome a special light cheesecake, but many of us have tasted Italian cheesecake and this certainly wasn't. Try a place with a bit less ambiance and a lot more flavor to the food and personality to the waitstaff.    [05 May 2006 22:51:49]

We Love Deanna's!
We moved to Lambertville from Manhattan 6 months ago and Deanna's is easily our favorite restaurant here.

The ambiance is fantastic and they regularly have great live music which really adds to the atmosphere.

My husband loves the chicken gorgonzola dish and I love the specials!    [30 Mar 2008 17:08:19]

Great food and great bartendars!
I recently headed there upon a recommendation from a friend. I was surprised to find out we were charged for garlic bread! For the prices and service, an uncanny charge! Keep in mind you will not leave hungry.    [27 May 2008 20:17:11]
