    We live right down the street and always go to other restaurant, but this past Sunday afternoon we grabbed a reservation and boy were we pleasantly surprised and thrilled! The other week we went to Pellanas Steakhouse and liked it, but didn’t love it there. Daniella’s was vibrant ( great decor) and happening and the staff was top notch as well as the food. We shared the tuna tartare which was beautiful in a martini glass- it was so fresh and had great depth of flavor and the chips added a nice salty crunch. I got the chicken saltimbocca which was fantastic. The sauce was deep and rich and the potatoes were done perfectly. My husband got the Nonnas Sauce dish and it was loaded with meatballs, pork and sausage. Very good flavor and plenty to take home. The service was attentive and everyone seemed to help one another out. Dessert was the affogato which we haven’t been able to find anywhere locally , so that was a great treat. Overall , super meal and atmosphere. This is now in our favorite restaurant rotation!

    We Love Bella!! The atmosphere is so quaint and romantic, it’s a great place for a date, celebration or just dinner with people you love. The feel is very north end like. We ordered the Tortellini accompanied by mushroom and Parmesan as well as the veal Milanese, both were excellent and the wine list is also perfect for what it’s paired with. Situated across the street from the famous Hawthorne hotel, you can never go wrong with Bella Verona. One minor pet peeve, I really wish if they’re going to take reservations on this platform I wish they’d manage them better. You always have to wait a bit when you arrive but it’s totally worth it. Last night was particularly busy cause of several large parties due to graduations however, one knows when they dine out a restaurant is busy for a reason cause it’s that good!!
