What T W likes about Bella Italia:
They have some good Italian food haven't been there in a while but the food is definitely delicious. Over the years they've shifted the restaurant some but that doesn't matter as long as is the food is on point. View all feedback. What Chris T doesn't like about Bella Italia:
Walked in, nobody came to seat us, had to ask where to sit, waited 5 minutes before they brought menus, waited 10 minutes after we got the menus and left because nobody even came to get our drink order. This was at 3:00 in the afternoon, not busy. Don't waste your time. View all feedback.

Excellent food service Customer service A+ Polite, professional prompt Detail oriented, always done with complete care!

Bella Italia offers a mix of experiences, with the food receiving high praise for its delicious flavors and generous portions. However, some diners have encountered issues with customer service, ranging from refusal to honor gift cards to attitude problems. Despite these setbacks, many have found the service to be attentive and the atmosphere warm, especially when it comes to the family-owned business's older female and male members. The restaurant serves a variety of dishes, with standouts like the Lamb Gyro and Philly Steak and Cheese Sub earning repeat orders from satisfied customers. Overall, while there may be some bumps in the road, Bella Italia seems to deliver on its promise of flavorful food and solid service.

It's not that there was anything egregiously wrong with Bella Italia, but there was nothing that made me really want to return.
