Recent Reviews
As long time patrons of Cucina Bella, we had high expectations for my daughter’s bridal shower, which were far surpassed. We had 56 guests; the restaurant was closed so we used the entire dining room and bar area. The exposed brick-walled room has such character and warmth; we added only a few table centerpieces and candles. The delicious food was served family style and each table had plenty (we took leftovers home)! It was high quality, very fresh, and all dishes were served...

Great Italian restaurant!
Kid-friendliness: I wouldn't say it's kid-friendly, as in a place for children to be entertained, but we had three of our grandchildren with us, ages 3 - 6 years old and the service was quick enough that they didn't get antsy.

This was my second time here. My first time was a few years ago to celebrate a birthday with a group of friends. I have been looking forward to returning since.
This visit was just as memorable. The food was so delicious, the drinks were great and the service was very good.
I will be returning as much as possible, just so good.
