Just fantastic food! You can tell with every bite it was made with love and care. We actually came to try the Italian food but went for Afghan choices instead. SO. GOOD. we will definitely be back!

What a great find! I recently ordered takeout from Bellissimo and was completely impressed. The eggplant dish was exceptional; it's honestly one of the best I've ever had. Also, they were very kind and gave me some extra bread, which made the meal even better. Mr. Magic is so genuine and friendly. He really cares about their customers. I'm already excited for my next visit to Bellissimo!

It was a first time experience for me and my husband at Bellissimo and we greatly enjoyed the food. I was originally interested in coming here for the Italian food, but the Afghan food piqued my interest (having never tried it before) and I ordered the Mantu. The dish was absolutely amazing. It was full of flavor and you can tell the food comes from a labor of love for cooking. My husband ordered the Tuscan Chicken from the Italian side of the menu and it was also very delicious. Everyone at this restaurant is very friendly and the service was great. We will definitely be back again to try other things!

The food was extraordinary. Got the Tuscan chicken and it was so very delicious. This place is a gem. The owners are all family and it reflects in the food, you can tell. My family ordered the jujeh kabob, alfredo, ravioli, caesar salad, bolani and baklava. So much goodness. Can't wait to go back and try other menu items. 100/10!!!

Wanted to try a different cuisine, the flavors were amazing and the food fresh.
I recommend the Bolani, a delicious flatbread with potato and spices somehow sandwiched into a buttery, soft and crispy bread. Like a mixture of a naan but the thinness of a tortilla. It's amazing and could be a meal itself.
Also tried chicken and beef kebabs, both were flavorful, tender and served with heaps of rice.

I have been to this restaurant few times! The food is amazing very delicious. They have two menus to choose from. It’s a Family owned business they’re very friendly and welcoming. The restaurant is small, however I like the vibe and atmosphere. Highly recommended!

Highly recommend! Went here with two others Sunday evening. The staff was welcoming, friendly, and engaging (all members of this family owned restaurant). The menu has both Italian and Afghan choices. We all opted for the afghan dishes. Two of us had Mantu (meat filled dumplings) and the other the Jujeh Kabob (chicken).The food was superb and plentiful. In addition we had the Bolani (potato filled flat breads) as an appetizer. We finished with Baklava and pudding. If you’re looking for a delicious meal and a dining experience as though you’re a member of the family where mom is the chef, this is the place!
I can put my name behind the Spaghetti Meatball and the Combo Kebabs. These two dishes will get you to taste the traditional recipe.
My wife and I tried so many places, including Italy and New York, for the spaghetti meatball. Something was always missing. This place, however, has them all correct. The texture of the pasta, the fluffy meatball, the correct tomato used in the sauce. Perfect. The only problem is that we start eating too much here, we may need to ask them to reduce on salt and pepper for upcoming orders.
Same for the kebabs. The thing most other places got wrong was the rice. A well cooked rice should not be hard or clunky to bite. A piece of grilled/toasted onion and tomato are too good. Now, about the meat, my recommendation is not to order the beef only, since it can feel salty. However, when combined with the chicken, that balances out nicely. I love the chewiness in these meats.
Service is always warm and welcoming. Great people in a small family business. With that said, when you come in during busy time, the wait can get long. Recommend to come here with 1/4 empty stomach. Happy to find this place in the middle of US.
Excellent food! We ordered off the Afghani menu, and my friend and I both really enjoyed our lunch. Will definitely be back sometime soon to try something off of their Italian menu.

Ok, it's not the Taj Mahal inside, and my food was taken home as carry out. But oh man, the quality and freshness for Italian and Mediterranean food was second to none!! Super nice staff and portions were generous. I had the meatballs with ravioli, lamb shank, and chicken kebab. All were prepared with care and served hot. Side sauces were fantastic too. A+ food and staff!!!
