    Nice atmosphere. Great service. The food: appetizer, dinner and desserts were great. Orrechetti (sp?) was the best I’ve ever had…..excellent. Went to the chef and told him so. Will be back again and again.

    The food was delicious, and we really enjoyed our meals. For our main courses, we had the Pork Osso Buco and the Carne Alla Griglia. The salad wasn't exactly what I expected, but it was still good. The portion sizes were so generous that we couldn't finish everything and took leftovers home. The drinks and desserts were also tasty, though the selection was a bit limited. The atmosphere is homey and relaxing, and the music is kept at a comfortable volume for easy conversation. We highly recommend Ciao Bella for a cozy get-together with family or friends!
