" Tried Bella Roma last weekend with my parents, and we were all very happy with the overall experience. The garlic knots are a local legend—they were fresh and warm! For the main course, I had the shrimp linguine, which was delightful. It had a good seasoning balance that made it enjoyable to eat. The place was bustling yet comfortable with a great atmosphere. I recommend this spot to anyone looking for a nice Italian dinner. Overall rating: 4, Authenticity: 4, Service: 4, Atmosphere: 4, Portion: 4. " (*Curated Review*)

" Bella Roma is officially one of my favorite restaurants! The food is nothing short of spectacular. I truly believe they've perfected the art of Italian cooking. The marinara sauce has just the right amount of seasoning; it’s delicious! I tried their lobster ravioli and it was heavenly—all my expectations were exceeded. The ambiance is fantastic as it makes you feel like you’re in a warm Italian family kitchen. Service was quick and friendly too. I'll be returning for sure!

" Decided to take my partner here for a date night after hearing great things. The ambiance was romantic, with dim lighting and soft music playing in the background. We started with the calamari, which was perfectly fried and paired beautifully with the marinara sauce. I went with the chicken parm for my main course, which was flavorful but the portion size was slightly smaller than I expected for the price. I enjoyed it overall, but the weight of our server's presence was a bit overwhelming at times, making it hard to fully relax. The food definitely had a homemade touch that made my experience pleasant. I believe this restaurant is worth checking out for a nice night out.

" My family and I celebrated my birthday at Bella Roma, and it was a wonderful experience overall! The atmosphere was cozy, making it perfect for a special occasion. We shared a variety of appetizers, including the bruschetta and fried ravioli, both of which were absolutely delightful. For my entrée, I had the eggplant parmesan, and it was rich, cheesy, and filled with flavor. The portion size was perfect—enough to fill me up without leaving me feeling stuffed. We topped off the night with a complimentary dessert, which was an incredibly sweet touch! I can’t recommend this place enough for anyone looking to enjoy authentic Italian food in a charming setting. Overall rating: 5, Authenticity: 5, Service: 5, Atmosphere: 5, Portion: 5.

" Bella Roma has been my go-to for authentic Italian cuisine for years now. Their menu boasts a variety of options, all bursting with flavor. The owner often comes around to chat with guests, which adds to the welcoming vibe. My favorite dish is the chicken marsala; it's consistently amazing. The prices reflect the quality and portion sizes, which are generous. Can’t recommend this place enough for those seeking authentic flavors.

" What a delightful surprise! Bella Roma is a gem in the heart of New Albany. From the minute we stepped in, we felt like we were transported to an Italian villa. The decor was simple yet elegant, and the staff's warmth made us feel right at home. I opted for the carbonara, and let me tell you, it was heavenly! The sauce was rich and creamy—definitely not your typical run-of-the-mill sauce you'd find at chain restaurants. The portion was generous, and I barely had room for dessert, which was also amazing. Highly recommend the tiramisu! Overall, I believe everyone should experience this charming place at least once. Overall rating: 5, Authenticity: 5, Service: 5, Atmosphere: 5, Portion: 5.

" My dining experience at Bella Roma was less than impressive. The vibe was decent, but the food lacked the quality I was expecting. My pasta dish was underwhelming, and I left feeling unsatisfied. The place has potential, but they need to tighten up their food quality and service. Probably won't return anytime soon. Overall rating: 2, Authenticity: 2, Service: 2, Atmosphere: 3, Portion: 2.
