Welcome Home!

At Bellona, our menu is created using only the finest ingredients with a vegan and vegetarian spin on classic Italian dishes. Johnnie Fusco and his wife, Aggie, invite you to their family.

The Fusco family name begins in a small town, Bellona, just outside of Naples, Italy and continues to grow its family tree through generational recipes. We want to capture family nights at Nonna’s and are inviting everyone to our family!

Nestled in the heart of Little Italy, we invite you to our newest location. Bellona is the name of the town the Fusco family’s legacy began, and it is here — as close to Italy as we can get — it continues. We invite you to get cozy, grab a drink and have a bite!

We had a wonderful meal. We loved the new location and the food was amazing. We had ravioli with asparagus and the calzones for our main course. Both were outstanding. The chocolate cake and apple fritters were perfect. Our favourite restaurant in the city!

Pasta was mediocre, fries tasteless. Martini was a half vermouth, squash soup was way too watery. Cesar salad was the only decent thing. Got set by the door in the empty restaurant so every time the door would get open we’d get cold Also Josh and Yellow Tail wine on the wine by the glass? For $15? It is embarrassing

I've been a fan of Bellona since their Jane location opened but it was a bit far for me. So I was thrilled when they announced their new College location. This place is a true gem, offering exceptional food, friendly service, and a welcoming ambiance. Whether you're a plant-based or not, the menu has something for everyone and it is delicious. The dishes are beautifully presented and bursting with flavor. The staff is incredibly attentive and friendly and always goes the extra mile to ensure a delightful dining experience. I've already visited the College location twice and I will definitely be back. I can confidently recommend Bellona to anyone looking for an amazing meal.

Food was amazing and service was so good. Had the fried artichokes, sliders, ravioli and tiramisu and everything was so delicious. Pasta is made in house and you can taste the love. So happy that they opened this second location. Run don’t walk!

We had a wonderful experience at Bellona. Our server, Jo, was amazing. We were very excited to celebrate our anniversary here and it did not disappoint. This is the first restaurant to recognize that we listed a special occasion on the reservation notes. The food was phenomenal. Can’t wait to go back and try more!

It was a great experience. Great ambiance but a bit loud at some point. Food was delish. The only things that threw me off was the sweetness of the sauce used for the lasagna or parmigiano eggplant. Not my fav and not sure what region of Italy has sweet sauce. Overall it was close to impeccable. Thank you.
