    We love the fritto mozzarella appetizer with marinara and pesto drizzle. We order it every time. We were a party of four and got the family portion. We polished off every last one. Son and daughter got house & Caesar salads. Both large and perfect. Mains were 2 rigattoni cremas. One with sausage one with chicken. Both were excellent and large portions. Husband got the chicken Parmesan which he said was delicious and he finished the entire plate. The only negative to me was the “Classico” chicken piccatta. This was not classic. They put a piece of breaded fried chicken on top of a thing pasta that did not really taste lemony and hardly any capers at all. I would not order again. We finished with two shareable slices of Tiramisu.. the four of us inhaled and they were very good. I got a cappuccino which was delightful with desert. Overall we love this place. Stick to more populate mains and you will be happy.

    My chicken piccata was very heavily breaded and overcooked. It’s usually lightly breaded & perfect.

    We had a fantastic experience at Bella Notte this evening. Our server, Sophia, was outstanding—warm, attentive, and genuinely made the evening special. The food was absolutely incredible from start to finish. The Bruschetta Trio was our favorite dish—super fresh, flavorful, and fun. We’ll definitely be back soon!
