    I was pleasantly surprised at how well this restaurant is run. Service was very attentive in spite of a very large Saturday night crowd. Bella was very good. The food was very good and the presentation made it even better. Three of us had steaks which were all done perfectly. Appetizers were all delicious from the soup to clams to caprese salad. Little things that you don’t expect. Half of grilled cheese sandwich with the tomato basil soup or a macaroon with your other desserts. I don’t mind paying for a meal when it is this good.

    Everything was very nice. Marissa, our waitress was terrific. One of the best waitresses we’ve had in a long time. She made the evening enjoyable which is why I gave it 5 stars. . We went because of prime rib night and it was very good. If I had to find a drawback it was that it is a long walk to the parking lot and it was pouring rain. But you can’t help the rain.

    Restaurant was beautiful. My wife and I shared the porterhouse which was delicious which included mashed potatoes and spinach. We were celebrating our 22 anniversary and the restaurant made our night special. Highly recommend!

    From when we walked in from when we walked out everything was amazing. The staff are very friendly. It was my wife’s birthday and they made a nice desert plate with happy birthday on it. The food was amazing one of the begs filet mignon I’ve ever had. The Cavatelli special is a must try when they have it. Will def be back!!
