"Reasonably priced and inventive, Mediterranean-inspired cuisine... well-crafted desserts... solid specials that show a more exciting edge." The News Journal, July 2001

"Caffé Gelato Goes to the head of the class for a return visit." The Boston Globe, November 2004

"...we headed for a late dinner at trendy Caffe Gelato... Our sidewalk table was a prime people-watching post... [In Newark] the air positively vibrates with energy..." The Washington Post, May 2007
