Valente's Cucina

Everything was amazing from the food to the service, the place is so nice and you can see the chef in action which is incredible.
All we ordered was incredible, la burrata so creame and combine so well with the toast and eggplant. The sausage pasta reminded us to home, it’s a type of food that can be so comfort to eat. The tomato salads was so refreshing and it’s a great start. The cheesecake was a perfect balance of sweetness with the granola and fresh berries. If you wanna have a really nice lunch/dinner definitely this is your place! ✨

We’ve been here twice and each time has been better than the last. It takes us over about hour and a half to get to Valente’s and it doesn’t even matter because it’s that good. To give you portion context, there were three of us and we ordered all but two menu items and shared them. I would suggest ordering everything you want and having it boxed up if you don’t finish it because you won’t want to miss out on an item! This happened to us the first time where we got one item from the Overture and one item from the Aria and wished we’d ordered more. This time we did not make that mistake and it was well worth it! The service was a little bit slow but honestly it was really busy for a Saturday night and the food more than makes up for it. Also, make sure to bring your own wine. Incredible food and we love this place and will be back!

Some of the best food I have ever eaten! Chef Johnnie is a marvel with taking food to a new level. I dined there twice within a week and all of the guests that I took there for dinner were equally impressed. Fran was the best and I hope she always serves when I am there. I have never been treated with as much care as I was at this restaurant. From when I called to make the reservation to when I inquired about ingredients to my special requests to them packaging my leftovers to enjoy later. Thank you so much!!!

Just wow! One of a kind experience from start to finish. The menu was unique and based on our waiter's suggestion, we ordered 2 starters, 2 pasta and one entree. The lobster bisque was creamy and tasted great. The charred Octopus was even better. It wasn't a typical grilled one, had fried texture with mild spices. Really tasty. Then we had the 2 pasta. Crab Diavolo (red sauce) and porcini torchio( white sauce based). It was the first time we had a veg pasta and I can confirm that this porcini torchio was the best dish of the night. The pasta itself had a unique shape ( homemade). Truffle on top of the pasta made it even better. The mushrooms were well cooked. Our final order was the skate wing. Another great dish with a beautiful presentation, accompanied with orzo pasta. This should have been the showstopper of the evening but we have to hand it to the porcini torchio. All in all, trust the waiter and you can't go wrong. This is a fabulous place.

A couples night out in downtown Haddonfield surprised me. Our first time at Valente's was as good a meal as I have eaten in anyone of 80+ countries I have visited, including Italy-Rome/Venice/Milano/Naples, etc.

Attention to detail in service is superb. Presentation of courses was professional. Tastes were alive!

I have found a gem in my backyard. What a wonderful surprise!

Staff is attentive and gave superb descriptions of the foods in the menu. A large party which shared appetizers that everyone raved about! Entrees were prepared and presented well and very flavorful. 3 different deserts rounded out the evening, not a morsel left due to the amazing tastes! Very enjoyable!

If you know Italian, and your feel like being teleported to Italy for your dinner experience, you need to get here.
If you don't know Italian, what are you waiting for!? Get over here and experience the best food you ever had. Before it becomes next to impossible to get a table.

Amazing food! Kudos to the chef! Have already recommended twice and plan on going back soon.

The food was absolutely fantastic and the owner and his crew were especially wonderful THEY KNOW HOW TO TREAT THEIR CUSTOMERS!

Great service and they were very accommodating, making a cacio e pepe that isn't on the menu anymore (it was great like everything else.) Pleasant atmosphere, indoors or outside.

UNREAL!!! Everything we had was DYNAMITE! The fig appetizer and beet appetizer were soooo good! The crab fra Diablo was so tasty and the squid ink pasta was amazing.

The short rib pasta was so light ! Every taste was spot on. The apple pie and chocolate mousse were so fresh!! This place is amazing !! You must try!

Cozy, homelike, great service, well thought and executed menu, and great location. Definitely a must go in the area!

Food was excellent, as was the service. Atmosphere was also lovely. Highly recommend!

Great pandemic place!
They had a cute lil heater for our table.
And the food was very niiice!

Valente's is a wonderful restaurant located in downtown Haddonfield with quick access to parking and shopping. Their service is quick and friendly and their plates are plentiful and affordable for a great night out that still feels comfortable like you're at home. Atmosphere is relaxed and dress code is smart casual. BYOB

I’ve eaten in restaurants all over the United States and the food here is simply the best. The atmosphere and the friendliness of the staff was second to none. The charred octopus was absolutely delicious as were their specialty pastas. Even if you only go out to dinner once a year this is the place to go

This really was a fantastic dining experience. Went with a group of four. We each had something different for each of three courses. Every dish was wonderful. Service was outstanding. We sat outside as we had a dog with us. The outside seating was delightful. No complaints about anything. It is BYOB, but we were aware of that and brought a bottle of wine. We will go back.

My fiance and I went here for Valentine's Day last year, and it's our new favorite restaurant. Every dish we've had is incredible and unique, from starters to dessert. It's a small and cozy atmosphere and the servers are great.

Valente’s is one of my favorite spots! I’ve been getting food from them for years, I live seeing them grow from farmers markets to their own location and then expanding even more! My favorite is their bread pudding but everything is divine.

The greatest meal in my 29 years!!! Best service and great atmosphere. My boyfriend and I went for a very special celebration dinner and they made sure our dinner was top of the line and I experienced the best service ever. I highly recommend... the plates were outstanding and the team seemed like a family.
