It's in Campus Town at The College of New Jersey on Route 31, next to RedBerry Frozen Yogurt, and around the corner from Insomnia Cookies and IndiGrill.
There's a misconception that the restaurants, shops and services are for the college's use only and that's not true. Campus Town is open to the public, not just TCNJ staff and students.
Bella Ciao has the same owner as two other popular restaurants in Campus Town.
Grab lunch or dinner. There are tables inside Bella Ciao Pizzeria for you to sit and eat, or, of course, you can order your food to go.

Also inside is a colorful mural on the wall with a campus vibe.
The new restaurant offers more than just pizza though. There's a huge menu hanging on the wall as you enter.
There are pork belly fries, mac & cheese, chicken wings, sandwiches (cheesesteaks and chicken handhelds), salads, loaded fries, desserts, and of course, pizza...traditional and signature, like short rib & caramelized onion, truffle wild mushroom, and more.
The opening is great timing, now that the new school year is starting. TCNJ students can pay in the restaurant for dine in or take out using their meal plan funds and Campus Town Dollars.
Bella Cia Pizzeria is now open in Campus Town off Route 31 in Ewing, NJ, 300 Main Boulevard East, Suite 500.
