Hello, Salve, Hola, Bonjour, Olá, Alex and I started our first business, Bella's Pizzeria in 1996, in partnership with my dad, Mario. After 25 years, we have decided to take our experience and open a new, fine-dining restaurant located in the heart of downtown Long Branch at 202 Broadway.We began this journey in October 2020 with an idea which then became a dream and it has finally become a reality: American cuisine with a Mediterranean fusion. We look forward to serving you.

Went on quiet night. Outstanding service. We had seafood, pasta , crab cakes. All great. It was fairly quiet as it was only about 30% full so can’t speak to the other comments on noise level. Would go back for sure.
