A Bit of History
Inspired by the family table in Positano, Italy.
Serving authentic Southern Italian cooking and New York-style pizza, our menu draws its inspiration from our hometown of Positano, Italy and the dishes we enjoy around our family table. You can expect fresh local produce and quality imported ingredients, along with a warm atmosphere and a high standard of hospitality.
From Positano to Hillsdale
Every dish at Della Cucina reflects the traditions of Southern Italy. We combine locally sourced produce with carefully selected imported ingredients to bring the flavors of the Amalfi Coast to Bergen County. Our kitchen is guided by the same principles that define an Italian family meal: simplicity, quality, and generosity.

The heart of Della Cucina beats with the warmth of Southern Italian tradition, where every meal is an invitation to gather around the table just as families do in Positano. Our kitchen honors the time-honored recipes passed down through generations, focusing on simple, bold flavors rather than complicated presentations. We believe that great food starts with respect for the ingredients, which is why we seek out fresh local produce whenever possible while also importing key staples directly from Italy to maintain authenticity. The result is a menu that feels both familiar and transporting, whether you are stopping in for a quick slice or settling in for a leisurely dinner with loved ones.
Our approach to pizza reflects the best of two worlds: the chewy, foldable crust of a classic New York slice and the restrained, high-quality toppings typical of Southern Italy. We take care with every step, from the slow fermentation of our dough to the even char achieved in our ovens. The sauce is bright and unfussy, the mozzarella is fresh, and the balance between cheese, sauce, and crust is always the priority. Whether you prefer a simple margherita or something with a bit more character, each pie is made to order and meant to be shared, reinforcing the communal spirit that defines everything we do at Della Cucina.
Beyond the food, Della Cucina is a place built on hospitality. Our dining room is designed to feel approachable and comfortable, a setting where conversations linger and plates are passed freely among friends and family. We welcome guests for lunch, dinner, and private gatherings, and we take pride in being a steady presence in the neighborhood. The atmosphere is warm without being fussy, with enough space to breathe and enough character to feel distinct. Whether you are a regular or a first-time visitor, our team aims to make you feel like you have stepped into a home away from home, if only for an hour or two.
For those who prefer to enjoy their meal somewhere else, we offer reliable take-out and delivery options that bring the same quality to your own table. Our catering service extends that reach further, making it easy to share a taste of Della Cucina at parties, office events, and family celebrations. We understand that convenience matters, but we never compromise on freshness or flavor when packing an order to go. Every container is handled with the same care as a plate served in our dining room. Whether you are feeding a crowd or just yourself on a quiet evening, we aim to make the experience seamless and satisfying.
