Best PlaceJuice Reviews
This place is great! The staff are lovely but the food is excellent. We've eaten here twice and not only does I have flavor, it's fresh and very well portioned. I highly recommend trying this place!
Only one small recommendation, freshen and brighten the interior a bit.
A good place to eat after the movie. With a party of 9, they couldn’t seat us right away. But after waited 10-15 minutes, we were told they can only seat us in split tables… two round tables next to each other.
The food was good for the most part, chicken for the salad was on the dry side. But the sandwiches and pasta were good!
A bit pricy for lunch but was expected with the inflation and everything.
The warmest ambiance and classic feel of old of a cozy local Italian restaurant to disappear from your problems and get lost in the night with some great pasta and solid deserts. Do it, get your carb on and try this place. Family atmosphere with a hint of romance, sit in back and enjoy the beautiful lighting and set the mood for a great night!
This place sucked. Didn't let us make a reservation, said we wouldn't need one. Arrived at the restaurant, half of the tables were empty, said they were all reserved lol. In-laws still wanted to eat here even though they already had treated us poorly.
Got seated at a table in the back alley that was covered in black grime & dust, chairs also dirty and had gum on them (see pic). Two small tables for the four of us that were mismatched height. There were multiple smokers that passed by during our dinner.
Food was expensive and not so great. Salad was bitter, like it wasn't washed properly or too old. Seafood pasta was somehow super bland. Bolengese & pizza was fine, but not great.
Tldr: I think you would be nuts to eat here.
I was a bit apprehensive at first because the pictures are very limited to the same plates, but I was pleasantly surprised at how good the food is at this place. You can’t go wrong visiting this place, the portions and prices are matched really well. I will define coming coming back for more.
Would've gotten five stars if it wasn't for the poor service. Every other table had a water bottle, bread, and oil/balsamic before their menus. We had to ask and wait ten minutes before bread was dropped off by a busser we had to pull aside. Never got our water or oil/vinegar. Bolognese and carbonara were excellent though. Shame such a great kitchen had to be let down at the last five feet.
*Second visit- staff was more responsive however one pasta dish came out nearly uncooked. We had almost finished our other two dinners before our third had theirs replaced. Management comped it but the experience still has room for improvement and consistency.
Have been meaning to eat here for months. Finally had an opportunity with my daughter and her boyfriend. Service was absolutely 5 star. My daughter is vegetarian and was thrilled with the options available. She and I both agreed Bella Sera is our go to restaurant now.
Everything on the menu tastes AMAZING! Wonderful service.
