Great place, food and service were awesome. Where else can you get a NYC meal at Shore prices. Couldn’t be better.

I had dinner here with my wife and daughter. Our appetizer of rock shrimp was awful. Overcooked and rubbery shrimp. Way too spicy. We got tomatoes and mozzarella. We noticed that the tomatoes had been cut too thick, were hard and multiple pieces had the stem still inside. I had shrimp scampi and linguine. It was very soupy. I’ve never seen a scampi sauce that heavy. The linguine was saturated with it. I ordered one alcoholic drink and my wife and daughter had Coke and glasses of water. The bill was over $200 and we really didn’t order much food. For that much money I could have gone to NYC and got a huge dinner that left us full. I must add that our service was excellent. The waiter was friendly and very knowledge of the menu. The food came out pretty quick and the dining room was almost full. Unfortunately the quality of the food and how it was prepared was lazy and poorly executed. The atmosphere was nice but the dining room was too dark. Hard to read the menu. It’s a shame. I was really looking forward to a good Italian meal.

Everything was great except the lighting. My husband and I are in our late eighties and we need a good amount of light to read the menus and enjoy the food. Food was delicious and service was very good .

The food was amazing I highly recommend the tagliatelle mushroom pasta. My only complaint is that my partner was charged $12 when he asked about substituting asparagus for broccoli and we weren’t told that it would be an additional charge (they didn’t even eat the broccoli) and when we asked about it we were brushed off. Other than that it was a great experience

Had a 7:15 reservation. It is 7:40 and we are will waiting to be sat. Other groups with earlier reservations are waiting too. Worst of all there is not enough space and seating to wait inside. Hostesses aren't helpful at all. Terribly managed restaurant.Editing to add that when we asked the hostess wife our table was ready she said "I didn't even check" and not a single person apologized for the wait.

Would definitely recommend going here. The veal Milanese was great as was the peppered ahi tuna . Garlic clams were delicious as was the beef carrpacio.Dietary restrictions: Our waitress made sure everything we ordered was gluten free.

Went there for my Birthday last week. Had to try the Asiago chicken dish everyone raves about. Flavor was great but I found the chicken to be over cooked. My daughter had the halibut which was good. My son had the garlic salmon with mashed and brussel sprouts. The best brussel sprouts I've ever had.

Bread was stale and had mold spots on it. Our server was really great, ambience was excellent. Our dinners were super forgettable. Unfortunately, not going to give this another

Visited Joe Bella’s this Sunday night for a dinner. While the entrance was slightly cramped, the layout of the restaurant was good and the place looked very nice.We ordered a special as the appetizer, The Fried Burrata Salad, which was fried burrata over arugula, tomatoes, and onion with a balsamic glaze. It was very good. For our entrees we went with the Tagliatelle Mushroom Pasta and the Gemelli with Sweet Fennel Sausage. Both entrees were well cooked and delicious with the Tagliatelle Mushroom Pasta being the standout dish. For drinks we had the Cosmo Bianco which was decent (on the strong side) and the White Sangria which was great.We were happy to find a new go-to italian restaurant so close to home. The staff was very nice and the service was good as well. We look forward to our next meal.
