I don’t know why it’s taken me so long to write about one of our favorite places to eat – Deanna’s in Lambertville, NJ.

If you haven’t been there you are seriously missing out. Deanna, the owner, is in the kitchen day and night cooking up amazing meals for her guests. She makes homemade pasta every day. Not many places can say that. When I tell you her pasta melts in your mouth… ok I’m drooling just thinking about it.

My favorite dish hands down is Deanna’s Pasta with Prosciutto and Peas in Cream Sauce. Again, I’m drooling thinking about it. The pasta melts in your mouth and the cream sauce is not too heavy. The prosciutto is cooked perfectly and sliced super thin. This dish is probably my entire family’s favorite dish as well. At least 2-3 people order it each time we are there. But everything Deanna offers is incredible. Some of our other fave dishes are: Pasta with Arrabiata Sauce (spicy marinara) or the Pasta with Sautéed Chicken and Mushrooms in Gorgonzola Cream Sauce. Another one of my faves is an appetizer that isn’t on the menu but is sometimes offered as a special. It is figs with gorgonzola cheese with a jalapeno honey sauce. It’s the perfect blend of sweet and tangy.

They have a bar in house and I can honestly say they make a mean dirty martini. Deanna’s offers Local Nights on Tuesday & Wednesday where guests may order a prixe fix meal for $20 which includes an appetizer, entrée and dessert.

Deanna’s uses all fresh ingredients and even has a garden on site where she picks fresh herbs. Guests may dine either inside or outside. Often times, the hubs and I will opt to eat our dessert outside after we finish our meal indoors.

The staff is great and if you go there once, they will remember you forever.

So head on over to Deanna’s in Lambertville, you won’t be disappointed.
