In Short
Amber walls, a blazing fireplace, and three stone bars cast a cozy, earth-toned glint on this sprawling, contemporary dining room specializing in everything Italian. Casual cuisine like pizza margherita draws families in the early evening. Late-night lures the dating crowd, who snuggle in candle-lit shell booths and share fancier fare like veal Marsala and the signature lobster-stuffed ravioli with cream sauce. A DJ turns things from dinner to dancing around 10:30 pm.

The ownership needs to take a serious look at their management. Unprofessional and rude, avoid Kenny at all costs, not only will he ask you to take your hat off but he might grab you.

I read some of the latest reviews - are you guys sure we are talking about the same place.? We went there on Sunday and had the greatest brunch we had ever had. The place was very busy, but we were taken care of...very well. Our server was excellent, he kept making sure that we had everything we needed. We will definately go back - and tell our friends. In reading some of the previous reviews - it looks to me like the management did just the right thing - it got rid of disgruntled employees - the ones who were causing problems and probably writing their own reviews. This is a fine dining restaurant which shouldn't have to deal with people like this. Thank you for a wonderful dining experience.

As a person who frequents this place known as "BELLA", I would first like to start off saying there was a lot of potential for this establishment to succeed. Great food intimate setting not all the drama you find at other bars. Well unfortunately it has gone straight down hill. Here are a list of things I have noticed in the last 3 months. *They finally figured out how to keep all of the outside lights the same color, keep it classy bella! *The best bar manager they had, got let go. And the only reason half of the 30 people that ever go there did. *Kenny the manager is always being seen hitting on patrons, mostly men and sometimes inappropriately touching women patrons. *Kenny the manager getting into verbal and physical confrontations with patrons of the bar and employees. Meanwhile he was heavily intoxicated! And it was completely his starting of the issues. *A female GM was seen just this weekend on Friday, wasted on the job asking women to take of there shirts stand on the bar. Taking and giving free shots to those women! When I say drunk I mean drunk, I can drink and this GM was wasted and mind you on the job and to the point the bartenders looked uncomfortable around her! If you ask me Bella didn't need to let some of it's staff go that they did. They needed to take a good look at what they are left with and realize that's who should be gone! The management is horrible, look at what happened to Rapids !?!?! Related issue...I think so! The only thing right at that place is a couple Bartenders and the guys behind the wall cooking the food. Good Luck Bella, I would love to open a Buffalo Wild Wings in your spot!
