" Not thrilled with my experience. The quality of the food just didn't meet my expectations based on past visits. The dishes lack the authenticity I was looking for. My chicken dish was seasoned poorly and the pasta overcooked. It seems hit or miss every time I come here. " (*Curated Review*)

" This was our first visit, and I'm not sure it lived up to the expectations. The atmosphere was nothing special; it felt a bit average. I ordered a spaghetti dish, but I found it quite bland overall. However, the dessert was a highlight for sure. The service was quite friendly and attentive. A mixed experience overall. " (*Curated Review*)

" Fantastic experience! The ambiance was homey, and I felt instantly relaxed. I tried their fish tacos, which were flavorful and fresh. Plus, the waiter was kind and did a great job making sure we had everything we needed. I will most definitely return soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" I came to Bella Cucina for breakfast, and it was absolutely fantastic! The biscuits and gravy were the best I've had in a long time, and I appreciated their large portions. The atmosphere of the restaurant was inviting. The staff was incredibly friendly. Although I encountered a slight wait after ordering, the quality made up for the delay. I'll be recommending this place to all my friends and will definitely be back soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Bella Cucina after hearing good things from friends, and overall, I was impressed. The pizza had a nice crust, reminiscent of authentic New York-style pizza, which is hard to find here. My only downside was the price, which felt a bit high for the pizza size. However, I appreciate the convenience of getting both Italian and Mexican food at the same spot. I'll return but may stick to takeout. " (*Curated Review*)

Archived Reviews (244)

" I was quite disappointed after my recent visit. While the hype is real, I found the food to be pretty lackluster. The pizza was cheap in flavor and looked a mess when it arrived. The high prices don't justify the experience. However, I must say that the staff was friendly as ever and did their best to salvage the evening. " (*Curated Review*)

" I'd give it even lower if I could! The lasagna had no flavor and seemed overcooked. I waited a long time for my food and felt mostly ignored despite the restaurant being only half full. I expected more based on the glowing reviews, but I feel let down after my visit. " (*Curated Review*)
