" I discovered Bella Sera on a family outing and it quickly became a favorite. Their baked ziti is generously portioned and undeniably delicious. The pasta is cooked to al dente perfection, and the cheese is perfectly melted. Our server provided excellent service, with attentive and friendly service throughout the meal. It’s a wonderful spot for family dinners where everyone can enjoy a hearty meal together. I have to give them a thumbs up for the food, service, and comfortable atmosphere! " (*Curated Review*)

" Unfortunately, I was very disappointed with my visit to Bella Sera. I had heard great things about their menu, but when I got there, it fell short. The eggplant parmesan was bland, and I felt it was more Americanized rather than authentic Italian cuisine. We waited a long time to even get our orders taken, and when the food did come, it was lukewarm. I think they need serious improvement in both kitchen and service staff. I would likely try another Italian spot in the area next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" This was my second visit to Bella Sera, and I was hopeful for improvements since my last experience. I ordered a simple spaghetti dish, and while it was decent, I felt it lacked the homemade touch that I’m used to from local Italian joints. The service was much better this time, which was a relief. I was seated promptly, and my waiter was engaging and polite. The atmosphere is cozy, but the food still needs to catch up in terms of quality. I would come back, but I hope the food gets better. " (*Curated Review*)

" We had a group gathering at Bella Sera which was a bit chaotic owing to the number of people but the staff handled it fairly well. Food came out in batches, and the pasta was delicious! I enjoyed my tortellini and the breadsticks while my friends loved the minestrone. Everyone was full after the meal, but we did wait a while for our final drinks to arrive. For larger parties, they seem to manage okay. The location itself is pleasant enough, though it could be more vibrant. " (*Curated Review*)

" After hearing mixed reviews about Bella Sera, I decided to give it a try. I ordered their lasagna and was really pleased. The portion was generous, and it tasted homemade! The bread served at the start of the meal was a bit cold, which was unfortunate. However, the service staff kept checking on us, and I really appreciated that. It’s a great family-friendly place to enjoy a meal, and I would recommend trying the lasagna on your visit! " (*Curated Review*)

" I was really looking forward to dining at Bella Sera but ended up very disappointed. The service was slow, and it took ages just to get drinks. Our orders took longer than expected, and when they finally arrived, I noticed that my lasagna was nowhere near hot enough. The cheese wasn't even slightly melted! To make matters worse, the garlic bread was tasteless and cold as well. There was absolutely no garlic; it seemed like a frozen ready-made product. I wanted to complain, but our server was nowhere in sight. Based on this experience, I probably won’t come back. " (*Curated Review*)

" On a recent visit to Bella Sera, we were excited to try their famous garlic knots. Unfortunately, they were soggy and bland. My main course – a simple spaghetti – didn’t fare much better. The sauce tasted very generic, almost like it came from a bottle. To add to this, our waiter seemed to be overwhelmed by the few tables she had and we struggled to get her attention when we needed something. Overall, I left feeling disappointed and wouldn’t recommend the place for a proper Italian meal. I feel like they try hard but miss the mark. " (*Curated Review*)
