Bella Monica is a nice restaurant with a welcoming atmosphere. The food was good and enjoyable overall. However, the service was a bit slow during our visit, and the room we were seated in with our group was quite cold, which made it a little uncomfortable. Despite those issues, it’s still a solid spot, and I would be open to trying it again on another day.

It was my first time here but it definitely won't be my last. They have lots of food options to accommodate allergens. Waiter was very knowledgeable and helpful.

This is one of those places that tries to be really fancy but the food tastes like it was microwaved. The Caesar salad was basically inedible. The lasagna was okay but again, tasted microwaved. It is way too overpriced for the quality of the food.

Great food and service. Gluten free options are as good if not better than non Gf.

Best Italian food with prolific gluten free options! My dining companion even liked the complimentary gluten free bread better than her gluten/regular bread. Salmon was excellent—Too bad I didn’t take a pic before enjoying it! Even had perfectly prepared gluten free tiramisu! Hope to see a gluten free pizza on the menu soon

We come often and love it but came last night with out of town for our birthdays . We made our reservation . I was highly disappointed . Food was great but we never got bread for the table , and at the end we were given our check before everyone was done eating and never asked if we wanted dessert . We were celebrating 2 birthdays and talked about that . But we paid and left and went some place else . We come bc the amazing food and gf options but have seen a decline in service and makes us sad . We watched young waitress eat bread off a plate as she was walking away from a table she took it from , and another sat down with friends chatting and eating before someone came up to her to tell her to check on another table .

Food was very good! Lauren our server was super sweet.
We did takeout even though we live in Apex since we were at UNC Rex Hospital. Food was delicious. Top notch. We'll be back.

Very kind and gracious staff for our celebration of 80th birthday Food did not live up to expectations based on other reviews and references. Apps were flavorless- bruschetta and flatbreads. Entree portions are substantial but gravy lacked homemade flavor. Abundance of food but not impressive

Food was less than average. Scampi spaghetti was dry with little taste, bread just ok, pear and garganzola salad was terrible with canned pears and flavorless cheese. I don't know what kind of salad dressing it had. Flavorless. Way overpriced for the food

Food and service are 10/10. No I’m not Italian but this is as close to authentic that I’ve had in the triangle area.

What a delightful experience. Having celiac can be challenging when going out to eat. Our family drove 30 min to try this restaurant. They have a full menu of gluten free offerings. It was perfectly prepared, the service was the best I have experienced in a long time. I look forward to going back soon.
