Service was great but some items that used to be on the menu were gone and they should tell you the spaghetti sauce is more spicy than most others. All in all we had a good time.

Only 3 couples seated at the time and our food took a long time to come out. The waitress was great and kept us updated, but it shouldn’t have taken that long. Not much caprese on the bruschetta either. That’s the main reason we went

First time at Bellissimos and I was not disappointed. Service was great. The Ravioli was hands down the best i had ever had. Eggplant was amazing! The ambience was very rustic and quite. Excellent meal and one of the best dinners I have had in a long time. 5 stars!

I love to go to Bellisimo for the appetizers, their calamari is delicious, as are their soups and breads. Last night I ordered the Caesar salad with shrimp for dinner. I did not enjoy the texture of the shrimp. I would’ve like them cooked longer. The cheesy bread was delicious and all the desserts we tasted were amazing, so disappointed in my salad though overall, we had a nice visit with friends. We hadn’t seen in a long time.

Food was really sub-par. The Gnocchi was very bland and the chicken diavalo was a little odd tasting. The food took forever to arrive and it took a while for us to receive an update on what was taking so long. When we finally did the server mentioned that the gnocchi was ready but the kitchen had "messed up" the diavalo order requiring them to remake it. About 2 minutes later both orders arrived, which was odd. The only good thing about the restaurant was the bruschetta. The bread was fresh and real soft. Our date would have been nicer if we had gone to Olive Garden. I'd be very hesitant to return but I may give them another shot.

This is one of the best Italian places we have been in ages. The prices are so inexpensive and the portions are huge. Had the brucettia (sp) appetizer and it would feed several people. The chicken marsala was to die for as was a the polenta. Every one at our table was amazed. Can't wait to return. Thank you so much

Hostess was not a very good impression as she greeted us by saying, "There'll be a 20 minute wait." Didn't ask if we had reservations (which we did). No smile or very pleasant Food was unremarkable, the focaccia bread we ordered and tiramisu dessert were the tastier items on the menu. I ordered the prix fixe with bolognese sauce, and my husband ordered spaghetti and meatballs. The menu indicated the pasta for these entrees was house made - doubtful. Service was lackluster although the wait person was very upbeat.

We were there for a surprise birthday party. The restaurant called me in advance to confirm that they write the name on the cake correctly. They even offered a complimentary dessert. The food and portions are great. They have unlimited coffee refills. Very friendly staff, highly recommend for a special occasion because they try their best to address it.

Consistently delicious and authentic Italian food. The Calamari are.fresh strips not frozen rings and one of my favorites. Chef's Whim pasta , Eggplant Parmigiana (as good as what I'm used to back east) make it hard to decide what to order.
