We immediately fell in love with the location,” said Lorraine Arthur, co-owner of Loradella’s Family Pizzeria. “At Loradella’s, we hope to bring Newport a family-friendly atmosphere and good food at a reasonable price. We know the kids are going to love the arcade too.” Continue reading Jersey City’s Newest Restaurant, Loradella’s Family Pizzeria, to Open in Newport
