JoeBella's Italian Kitchen 781 Fischer Boulevard, Toms River, NJ 08753

"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"

"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."

"Service is always great here. It’s a little crowded when you first walk in but once you are seated it’s comfortable. The penne vodka is consistently good. The chicken parm was good too. The rainbow cookie martini is the main reason we come here."

"Cozy little Italian restaurant with excellent food. Pasta is freshly made and cooked perfectly. I had the braised short rib, which was so tender it fell apart with just a fork. The signature drinks were creative and delicious. I will definitely be back to try more of the menu and maybe to try out the happy hour deals."
