Illianos Hammonton

Tried illianos in hammonton last night for the first time. Walked in and were immediately greeted by a friendly hostess who took us to a nice and comfortable table. Friend and I split some apps including clams casino, burrata caprese and Thai chili. Appetizer menu is so extensive we had trouble picking, we wanted to try them all! Every app was cooked to perfection and scrumptious. For main, had chicken Marsala that was absolutely delicious. Friend had chicken francese and said it was one of the best she's ever had, and that's her favorite dish so she's quite the connoisseur. We are dying to go back to try the pepperoni pizza w hot honey. We were so stuffed by the generous portions we couldn't even think about dessert but will have next time. Adam (the manager or owner? came over during the meal to check on us and we told him it's two thumbs up!!! Had excellent service the entire night. We loved everything and will be back.

Overall a very good dining experience. Genuinely friendly and attentive staff. Welcoming, good vibe atmosphere. We ordered dinner for 6 and every meal and appetizer was tasty and plentiful except the Primavera. This dish lacked flavor and was entirely too oily; food was floating in oil. Dietary restrictions: They do offer one gluten free option- penne pasta. Service: Dine in

I just visited Illiano’s meeting a friend for lunch. We got to meet the new owners and they were great! Definite foodies! My friend and I tasted a few things – the mini cheesesteak rolls, the risotto sticks, and the wings. All were delicious! Our favorite were the mini cheesesteak rolls! A yummy twist! Good vibes! Check it out and stay tuned. Service: Dine in

The seafood pasta dish was very fishy and tasted bland. The chicken Marsala was very thin. I have never seen chicken that thin. The waitress offered dessert but when we asked for coffee she said they were out of coffee and then said they had coffee but could not brew a fresh pot because they were closing in about an hour. I asked for a tiramisu to go and when I received it I saw that the tiramisu was served in a cup that was only filled 1/3 of the cup. As a business owner I understand inflation has been very difficult for a lot of businesses but is this what it’s come to? Less food with minimal quality at a higher cost? It seems like saving a few dollars is their main focus and have sacrificed customer service and quality in doing so.

It has improved food wise with the new owners. Service: Dine in Meal type: Dinner Price per person: $20–30 Food: 4 Service: 4 Atmosphere: 3 Recommended dishes: Penne Vodka
