Iachetti’s Kitchen, a family-owned American Brick Oven Kitchen in Glen Rock, NJ, announced its reopening with a refreshed menu emphasizing traditional Italian-American family cuisine in all of its offerings.

Established in 2018, Iachetti’s Kitchen will continue serving the local Bergen County community with offerings served at their parents and grandparents kitchen tables when they were growing up.

“For the last five years, we have received great support from families of Glen Rock and the surrounding areas.” said John Iachetti, former New York City executive chef and entertainment executive turned owner and executive chef of Iachetti’s Kitchen. “With today’s reopening and refresh of our menu, we are excited to serve the majority of our community looking for the offerings they enjoyed growing up. I am no different, having grown up eating many meals at [New York] City staples like Rao’s, Marios, Il Mulino’s, and Mama Leone’s, I always knew I’d open a restaurant where you feel like you are eating back in your childhood home.”

The reopening feature changes to its brunch, dinner, and catering menus along with the addition of daily specials that will mirror some of Iachetti’s original offerings over the last five years.

As for the everyday menus, they will be composed of traditional Italian-American recipes that have run in the Iachetti family for generations like “Uncle Clemente’s” Gnocchi, “Mom’s” Sunday Gravy, “Granny Flo’s” Rice Balls, and “Aunt Lina’s” Meatballs.

The dinner menu features seven sections, including starters, shareable salads, pastas, chef’s parmigianas, sides, and family favorites, which features classic Italian dishes like Mom’s Sunday Pasta, Cavatelli, Broccoli Rabe, and Sausage, and Veal Saltimbocca.

Prior to opening Iachetti’s, John was a brand manager and ambassador for nightclubs in major cities and also managed several restaurants and hotels. When the pandemic put a great strain on the dine-in restaurant business, Iachetti’s Kitchen stepped up to feed essential workers through pre-packaged takeout meals while also offering family meal options to a community struggling with pandemic-related hardships according to a release from the business.

They are open seven days a week for lunch and dinner.
