In the Italian-American household that Danny Husi grew up in, food was very important. Dannys mother was a first-rate cook, and her son inherited his mothers passion for Italian cuisine. He was also lucky enough to learn recipes and cooking tips that had been in his mothers family for generations. Five years ago, Dannys dream came true when he was able to open a restaurant called Taste of Italy in Avenel, NJ.When you visit our restaurant, not only will you have the opportunity to sample authentic Italian food, but youll also be treated like one of our own. We dont stint on the size of our portions, either. Whether you stop by for soup and salad on your lunch break or you bring all your loved ones in for a rousing family celebration, well do everything we can to provide you with an evening that will leave you with a warm glow.
