Page Six Rips 'RHONJ' Husband's NJ Restaurant Over Cleanliness

BERGEN COUNTY, NJ — A "Real Housewives of New Jersey" husband is in hot water over a dirty kitchen.

A health inspector had some pretty bad things to say about Joe Gorga's Italian restaurant after a health inspection was conducted there July 5, pagesix.com reported.

Gorga is the husband of Melissa and the brother of Teresa Guidice, two of the show's stars.

The inspector made several negative notes regarding Gorga's Homemade Pasta & Pizza in East Hanover, according to the report.

The refrigerator had a "build up of dust on the interior fan unit," the ice machine had a "build up of black residue," and perhaps the worst, was the fact that an employee did not wear gloves when prepping salad items and had to be told to wash their hands before putting gloves on, according to the report.

The inspector also noted that the restaurant kept cold food at temperatures warmer than normal and stored bowls "haphazardly in the mop sink," according to the report.

The restaurant's opening appeared on "The Real Housewives Of New Jersey." It has a three-star rating on Yelp!.

"The pasta was not al dente but more mushy and still had that floury taste," one reviewer said. "Waste of money and definitely don't believe the hype."
