La Vita E Bella - Toms River

If you’re looking for a family owned restaurant with amazing food this is the spot. The staff is incredibly welcoming and nice. AND THE CHEESE, THEIR CHEESE IS AMAZING. I will be returning. Never a disappointing experience.

I was here last night. We were a party of six. We ordered appetizers from a small foccacia to Calamari. All were very good. Dinner was Gnocchi, Shrimp Parm, Seafood Risotto, Branzino..all dinners were EXCELLENT!!! I love her red sauce. The only negative is that one of our dinner companions ordered meatballs and they were not very good. We had no room for Dessert. We will definitely be back!!

We have this place absolutely LOVE!!! You are so friendly and above all the food is amazing!! They deliver us to the sea park and just because they were a few minutes late, they surprised us with a free giant Sicilian slice!!! Great service and great people .. a must when your visit ocean county.

Fantastic selection of authentic Italian dishes! The home-baked oven pizza and bread are outstanding. If you live in Toms River, this restaurant should definitely be a regular stop for you. Finally, we have a North Jersey quality establishment right here in Toms River.

We have been dining at Hot Tomato for at least a decade now, and our experience has always been exceptional. The food is delicious, the portions are generous, the prices are reasonable, and the staff is wonderful. The quality of the food is consistently excellent. The atmosphere is warm and peaceful, unlike many other restaurants that tend to be noisy. This is definitely a restaurant you must try for its fantastic offerings.
