Filomena Lakeview - Deptford

My granddaughter attends Rowan University, so we were searching for a nearby restaurant to meet her. We drove for about an hour and found a spot with seating at the bar. The happy hour menu offered a fantastic selection. We tried the eggplant meatballs, pizza, an eggplant caponata, and broccoli rabe with sausage. Everything was delicious! The bartenders were very friendly, and the drinks were excellent. We were all very satisfied, and the atmosphere was lovely with a spacious bar. We'll definitely be returning!

At the beginning of July, we held a dinner for my son with 11 guests. Everyone in our group ordered something different and they all loved their meals! Today I returned with my husband for the second time, and once again, Filomena's did not disappoint! Both of our meals were delicious! We absolutely love this place!

This restaurant is always a reliable choice. We often sit in the bar area, which tends to be lively, but we can usually find a spot. They have fantastic Happy Hour specials, and I really enjoy their house wines. The food is consistently delicious, and I've never been disappointed. It's a great place to catch up with friends!

They had the best Auberginenparmigiana I ever had-it was real Aubergine, not all bread. When we had cocktail hours at the bar, the barkeepers were also great!

Made reservations for 7pm Sunday. As a two top we were seated right next to the kitchen and in between three large parties. Thankfully they were not too loud which didn’t hinder our experience. Bread was the best bread I’ve ever had and the food was all excellent. Fish came with a good sauce but my mom’s shrimp had literally zero seasonings. Service was definitely lacking in context of the fact I asked for our food to be wrapped by the staff but instead was given boxes. Also we got no bread to take home even though by the time we asked for it people were still getting their entrees. A lot of nearby dirty tables as well. Our actual server Mia was very awesome and always made sure to refill my drink and quickly handled a mistake with the cheque. The bill was just under $100 but considering all the food we got it was a reasonable price. My fish was not that big and accounted for over 1/3 of the bill. I am not rushing to come back here again but I would recommend it to anyone who wants a good fine dining experience.
