The welcoming exterior of Trattoria Il Cafone

Italian food made with fresh ingredients

Where Italian tradition feels like home.

Since 1997, our family has welcomed Lyndhurst and our neighbors in Rutherford and North Arlington to gather over rustic Italian dishes, warm hospitality, and food prepared with care.

Step inside to vintage Italian artwork, the glow of our brick pizza oven, and a relaxed neighborhood atmosphere made for weeknight dinners, romantic evenings, and family celebrations.
