“Tonight was my second time doing happy hour at JoeBellas. The Fig and Pear martini is straight up divine. The happy hour menu is fun. I had no problem eating Parmesan Truffle Fries for dinner LOL so so yummy. My husband and I brought his cousins last Saturday for a beautiful sit down dinner and as we were being seated we saw our neighbor's from two houses over! Bought them a round of course. Everyone was very happy with their meal. What a fun local restaurant. You'll wait in the summer time of course, totally worth the wait but now that we locals have it back I'll be frequenting more often. I happen to bring a friend tonight who is now a loyal fan. #lovejoebellas”

“THANK YOU CASTERANOS 🤩🤩🤩 We had our 4th of July outdoor party catered. Food was phenomenal!!! I want to thank Casteranos for making our gathering extra special. I’m sure everyone would agree that food is a very important part of a party. Also, we had a strawberry shortcake made special for a 70th surprise birthday on the same day. Delicious, one of the best I’ve ever tasted. We received nothing but compliments from all of our guests. Will definitely recommend and be returning for future events👌👏👌.”

“Pies Place is the best!!! My friends and I just discovered this place about two weeks ago. We have been at least 6 times & they have always been great to us! My friend just moved to Bayville and they were so welcoming. They wrote welcome to Bayville on the pizza box and also gave us extra desserts! They truly are so kind there and I would recommend them to everyone I know! Not only are they great people but the food is so so good. I have been struggling to find a good pizza spot in the area and now this will be my go-to every time. Delish foods and desserts. Amazing staff!!”

“Today was Our first time at Pondrelli’s … honestly from the second we walked in Luigi was so warm and welcoming he even went over every slice and sandwich with my daughter and I. Which was amazing because I didn’t feel forced to choose something quickly like you do at most places. While we waited Luigi and Anthony both hung out and talked to my daughter and I. (We frequent pizzerias often and NO ONE does that.) They are very down to earth and nice people. Lol Even as we walked out my 10 year old was like that was super cool of them. Another plus all of the food we order was amazing!! We will definitely be back and recommending!”

“The food is always amazing here. The portion sizes are gigantic and the service is always very friendly and prompt. The only reason I gave atmosphere 4 stars instead of five it's because it can get really loud in there. However, that's a small price to pay for such amazing food and service. I will absolutely keep going back there again and again.”

“Brick Oven is amazing! I had my, now fiance, surprise 40th birthday there (which turned into a surprise proposal) everyone raved about the food!! We usually don't do left overs, but what was left over- we will definitely be eating! Collin was fantastic! He was very accommodating and helpful. The girls were fabulous! Very polite, sweet and never once gave me a dirty looks with all my crazy requests lol. My sister in law was the only one who needed GF and Collin made sure she got her own plate, and told me was was the better tasting GF plate they offered. She said that was THE BEST GF pasta she has had. Their service was so great, my now fiance, made sure to take care of them ontop of what I tipped them! Guest from our party were asking Collin to open up a place in Monmouth County! And asking if they would deliver there! My family and friends (who are from Monmouth County) are talking about going back there again! I will 100% recommend Brick Oven because the food was out of this world, service was top notch and everyone was so great! The only thing was it got a little hot inside, but we also had a party of 40 people.. so everyone kinda understood why it was so hot. But other then that, everything went perfectly! Thank you so much Brick Oven and staff for a very memorable day!”

The Seafood Mediterranean is the best I've ever had anywhere and that's due to their sauce. Son always gets seafood paella, husband seafood broccoli rabe. Good service and they also do take out.

Brandi was so easy to work with—kind, attentive, and her portion recommendations were spot on. The entire experience was smooth from start to finish. We’ll definitely be ordering from them again for any occasion we cater in the future!”

“If you are in the Toms River area this is a hidden gem. Real NYC style pie! Food is great and very authentic Italian feel especially the dinners. Pictures of Venice posted all over which is a nice touch. The dinning area has arches and beautiful photos of famous actors and famous Italian stars. In fact the owner is Italian and born in Italy. Apparently the owner Vinnie was the original owner of Cafe' Napoli in Shoprite Plaza in Manchester & La Gondola in Lakehurst making pies for over 20 years! In fusing years of experience "That's Amore'' is his best version of a Pizza Trattoria Italiana. Every time, you come in the owner Vinnie is so welcoming and such a nice guy! Always asking you how you are? Or how's the family? Did I mention Vennie is straight Italy? You can always here Italian spoken here. My Phil brother worked as a delivery driver a few years ago during college and said its like a family when working there. Your always welcomed back. All the staff is super nice never had a problem in the going there for more then a 2 and a half years now. Not an overly expensive place and not cheap food at all. Great to book for the holidays like Christmas, Easter, Thanksgiving, New Years, or a personal occasion you wont be disappointed. Even if they make a mistake, they are always pretty good & willing to make it correct for you. Usually giving you a free pie or order, if they mess it up. Great Quality pies! Give them try!”

Una Pizza Napoletana, a popular spot in New York, has just been named the best pizza in the world by the 2024 Italian 50 Top Pizza ranking. This is a major victory for owner Anthony Mangieri, who has already earned the title of best pizza in the U.S. for three years in a row.
Naples-born Rosso Pomodoro has landed in Denver. The Italian pizza franchise just opened its first U.S. location in the city's Central Park neighborhood at 29th Ave Town Center. "It has long been a dream to introduce our brand of authentic Neapolitan-style pizza to every corner of America,” CEO Nicola Saraceno shared his excitement.
Totonno's Pizzeria Napolitana, a 100-year-old Coney Island eatery, is looking for a buyer or partner to keep its legacy alive, but it has one important condition. Totonno's has made it through fires, floods, and even COVID, but there's one thing they'll never tolerate: pineapple on their pizza.
