Bella's Italian Restaurant
Since we opened our doors in 1974, Bella's Restaurant has become known as one of the South Shore's finest Italian restaurants for lunch and dinner. Family-owned and operated for over 30 years, Bella’s has its fair share of knowledge about authentic Italian cuisine. Offering an array of tempting Italian favorites, as well as seafood, meat, pasta entrees and pizza, Bella’s is a popular place with its local patrons, and consistently lives up to its reputation. Recently remodeled, Bella’s is a relaxed and inviting eatery, offering exquisite décor of brick and distressed copper accents, classic wainscot & beadboard paneling, warm recessed lighting, and several oversized Italian still-life prints. Bella's also features two separate lounge/bar areas to accommodate guests looking for more a casual dining approach. Whether its an intimate dinner for two, or a large gathering, come and visit Bella’s Italian Restaurant for a superb evening out.

"I am a frequent diner at Bella's and find myself always returning there instead of trying any where else--- The food and service are always what should be expected at a very good restaurant and always received at Bella's"

"Food was great as usual. It was extremely crowded and loud due to some large parties that had come in. We had a reservation from Opentable but because they were so backed up they never checked for it. Had to wait 1/2 past reserved time and than finally got an opening to eat at the bar."

"Great food and a thoroughly enjoyable night. We had asked for a corner table because one of the party was hard of hearing. The hostess gave us a choice of two tables and was extremely helpful and kind. Much appreciated!!"

"This was our first visit to Bella's. Our party waited a very long time for our food. When the appetizers arrived, they were all overcooked. Again, we waiting a very long time for our main courses, the children's chicken fingers were very well done and dry. My mothers dinner was overcooked. My sister commented that Chef Ramsey would never allow a plate looking as one of our appetizers plates did leave the kitchen. Pricey restaurant that seems to over cook the food. Wait staff not very friendly."
