I saw the local pork chop on the menu...but not available until after 5 pm. Well we were here at 2 pm... However they were available early... So glad for that! It was DELICIOUS. The roasted red pepper topping.... Best flavor!

Bella Cafe is hands down my favorite restaurant in Lexington!! My family and I go weekly! The staff members are so kind to my kids and are always very attentive. The food is consistently amazing. We love the European brunch buffet with homemade pastries and the best yogurt ever. The burger is 10/10. The bolognese and roasted chicken are other favorites of ours. The only change I would make is different options for the Spinach Artichoke dip. We wish there was a gluten free flatbread option or something other than the crostinis! Otherwise we are always so happy with our experience at Bella!!

I like the concept of the restaurant. However, we have teenagers. The menu is more aligned for wealthy seniors. Which I'm only half of the equation... a senior. Could they maybe add a couple of dishes fit for our younger family members? I'd really like to bring them.

Truff burger with the truffle fries were amazing. This was for delivery too, so you can probably imagine all their burger joints would be pretty good. Pricey i'd say, but totally worth it. Oh and their fries were perfect. They were consistent throughout with a good balance of that crispy and savory salt taste.

What a cute little cafe. Food was awesome service was awesome. Our waitress was darling. They have a great concept going for brunch and a good value. A little sunshine on a gloomy Saturday!

We treated a neighbor to lunch.The place is nice a has good wine selection.But it’s very expensive. Our friend had the bean burger $18.00We had a fish sandwich that had coleslaw on it and came with fries $27.00It was good but overly expensive.

The scallops were amazing! The fried chicken tenders, truffle fries and chicken wings were all great alternatives. Topped off with wonderful cocktails. Yum!

We had a wonderful experience at Bella Café. I've been in Lexington for six years, and that was my first time trying it. Super nice, trendy, and relaxed. Can't believe I waited so long - we'll be back!
Last few times we have been there on Sundays around 3:30pm between lunch and dinner. Restaurant is quieter but food is excellent, staff friendly, knowledgeable and willing to help also, well crafted cocktails. Bolognese was tremendous. Great place to catch up with family and friends.

We made a 5pm reservation for dinner to celebrate my 60th birthday. It was only my husband and I. The minute we walked in and were greeted by the goth looking hostess who sat us on a table in the middle of the traffic zone. In a very loud voice, she proceeded to tell us we had to be done & out in 1 1/2 hours as the table was reserved for the 2nd seating at 7pm. Everyone was staring at us. We have never been embarrassed & insulted in my life! We sat for 5 minutes and I got more upset and lost any desire to eat there. As we were walking out, I told the hostess and managers that we were leaving because how dare they give us a time limit to eat!! We can't comment on the food. But as you see wee are not a fan of their service and will never patronize neither one of their locations. Lexington has plenty of other great restaurants with service!!!

Duce the bartender took the time to chat with me, he was so busy; he was so kind.
Had the rigatoni made my eyes water it was so delicious

A local spot that is great for lunch or dinner! The food is consistently excellent and the service is too. It's a sophisticated but simple and comfortable vibe. I cozy spot for lunch with friends or a dinner date. They have everything from sandwiches to salads to main entrees with hearty protein portions. And save room for dessert! Every single dessert here is excellent.
