   Outstanding authentic Italian in a lovely atmosphere. Maybe the best meatballs of my culinary life = must have. Can’t wait to come back to this must have.

   Best Pizza in Florida! A true family-run restaurant that embodies the essence of honoring one's roots. The moment we took our first bite of the prosciutto pizza, we were transported back to Italy. The crust, crafted from high-quality 00 flour, was a revelation. This finely milled flour gives the dough an exceptional elasticity, resulting in a light, airy texture that is crispy on the outside yet soft and chewy on the inside. Maybe the special oven is the secret behind that perfect pizza crust, allowing for a beautifully charred finish that enhances the overall experience. We felt we didn't just dine here but experienced the joy that comes from sharing a meal crafted with intention and love.

   First of all the service was very good, no issues. Started with Insalata Fresca which was a joke for $14.50. Just a handful or wilted Romain and the I believe arugula, a tini speck of what looked like blue cheese and about 6 olives. Not ever close to what that salad should look like. Pizza was okay if you don’t mind scorched crust. Cook is not Italian.

   The was my first time dining at Bella Napoli and I will definitely be back! My group had never dined there before and they feel the same way. Being Napolitan, I felt very much at home. The owner warmly greeted us as did our hostess. The food was amazing!!! Fresh, delicious and plenty of it! Thank you Cesare for a great experience! So happy we have you in Sarasota!!

   Super noisy and there’s too much hustle and bustle. The food was very good overall even though our server never mentioned any specials(I overheard another server tell 2 men at another table). Would return there for lunch since dinner seems too chaotic.

   Just the perfect night out. Great space and service but early is your best bet. Excellent menu and wine list. Reasonable too for Main St.

   Crowded restaurant inside and out. Ordered non-pizza items which probably was a mistake. Service was poor; waiter apologized, saying they were short staffed but one meal brought about 15 minutes before the others. Also long wait for the check.

    Short staffed. One waiter for about 12 tables. Pizza was soggy, bland and cold when it arrived. Unbelievably owner asked if we wanted plates when pizza arrived! Plates supplied were small bread plates. Overall food and service were extremely disappointing. Will not go back!
