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.

Portugal: Land of Explorers
In the 15th Century, Prince Henry the navigator ordered his explorers to bring back to Portugal any exotic fruits, nuts and plants from the new lands. Tomatoes and potatoes are taken to Europe, Brazilian pineapples were introduced to Azores, Brazilian chili peppers grew in Angola, African coffee was transplanted to Brazil.
Today the Portuguese fondness for ingredients like cinnamon or curry powder, is also a legacy of his time. The Romans brought wheat and introduced onion, garlic, olives and grapes. Later the Moors were the first to plant rice and introduced figs, planted groves of lemons, oranges and almond trees. Portugal is a seafaring nation with a well-developed fishing industry trading cod since the 15th century.
Today, naturally, Portuguese cuisine varies from region to region , but fresh fish and shellfish are found on virtually every menu. BOM APETITE!!!!

    Amazing Brunch at Rooney's today with great friends. They have something for everyone. The stuffed loin of pork was so delicious as was everything else. So much to choose from. The pastry basket is really special and so are the menu items that are included in the brunch. It doesn't get any better than this and no one compares. Rooney's does it right!
