“It was our first visit and everything was wonderful! My Husband is a vegetarian and adjustments were made that did not disappoint. You must have the Caprese salad. The mozzarella is imported regularly and I am forever ruined because store bought pales in comparison! Everything was delicious, the staff was amazing, and the atmosphere was intimate and romantic. We look forward to dining there again soon.“
“It's a quaint place with lovely decor and delicious food. The good was fresh and seasoned perfectly. I ordered Shrimp Ceasar Salad, and it was delicious with garlic croutons. I was not a fan of the dressing because it wasn't the tonal typical creamy Ceasar dressing, more like Italian. The calamari was tender and cooked to perfection. It's a great lunch spot. However, due to limited space, I can see dinner wait time being longer.Parking: On location parking but could be difficult during peak times“
“Was visiting family in town and they took me and my husband to Frankos Italian steakhouse, everything from the ambiance to the decor were phenomenal. I couldn't believe we even got a reservation! The calamari was crispy and spicy ? we ordered steaks which came with a side we got the puree and couldn't have been more pleased with the perfection of them. Our waitress was Nicole, she was so outgoing and attentive. We will absolutely be back!“
“Food was delicious but they seemed to forget our order. We waited an hour and then our server asked if we wanted dessert. Never checked before. We told her we didn't have our meals. She ran off horrified and our food came a few minutes later.“
“Bella Italia catered our Labor Day event...from the eggplant to the sausage and peppers to the chicken Francese....... everything was fantastic and they went OUT OF THEIR WAY to make sure we had the best experience!! Thank You ... the food was BELLA!!!!“
“Great pizza! Just moved to the area and was my first pizza place to try in the area. I am only giving 4 stars cause there was some confusion with when my pizza was ready for pick-up and therefore the pizza wasn’t 100% fresh cause it was waiting a while. Althouhh Johnny over there was great and incredibly friendly and I will definitely be coming back because of him.“
“We went Saturday 03/30/2024 and the service was awesome. We had a young lady wait on us. I think her name was Jennifer (not sure) but she kept my boyfriends drink cup full and it never went under half way. Which is a good thing because he drinks alot. We got the buffet and we were surprised at what kinds of food was on the buffet. Everything was clean and neat. We definitely will be coming back!“
“Overall, best pizza my family ? and I have had thus far in the Wake Forest area. We ordered a traditional large cheese pizza ? The undercarriage was thin, light, and crispy! Hardly no flop, held well. Good balance of cheese vs sauce. My only critiqué to achieve perfection would be a bit more flavor and less greasy but overall a good bite ? Worth trying out if in the area.“
“Food is great.... Telling time is Horrible. EVERYTIME we've been and arrived at time as told, we still end up waiting for 20-30 minutes for our order to be ready. Let it ride the first 7 - 8 times thinking they would fix it but went again tonight and same deal...If it's going to be an hour, then just tell us upfront. Don't like sitting in the parking lot for that amount of time. Need to fix it or we will just try somewhere else...“
“Order today for the first time and got a pepperoni magnifico but removed the pepperoni by accident. When the delivery driver arrived and in a very timely manner I should add. He had stated he was not sure if I intended to order the pizza that way and brought me the pizza I ordered and a pepperoni magnifico the way it usually comes in case I messed my order up at no extra charge. The delivery driver was beyond nice as well. The food was hot and fresh upon delivery and delicious. I will 100% be going back to this location!“
“my husband and I are exploring the area and we're delighted to find this restaurant! the staff was friendly and efficient, the decor was comfortable yet refined and the food was delish!! the crab cake app was expensive but the amount of lump crabmeat unbelievable and the presentation wonderful. we had two of the seafood specials and they did not disappoint! my grouper was wonderful and the sauce rich yet not overpowering. we would definitely come back!“
“This place is incredible! I had the Dante's Inferno pizza which was probably the best I've ever had. Not only was it spicy, but it had several different kinds of spice. They also made a specialty drink for the film I'm in called, "The Blind Date," which incorporated a small light in the actual drink! But the best part of all was the seemingly ENDLESS cheese strand in their calzones. It was the closest thing to tasting Heaven I've had in a while. My back was to the wall when I was holding this, it was amazing! This place truly is the table where memories are made. Photo by Kevin Hutsell“
“Best restaurant in Raleigh and has an experienced staff! Been going 15 years and it just keeps getting better. I have referred dozens of people to BELLA over the years and they have done the same. Only 2nd review I've ever taken time to write up so kudos!“
“Olive Garden of Wake Forest has done it yet again. We had a super star Server tonight Ms.Diane. She and Chris have to be 2 of the best servers I have ever had the pleasure of meeting. They are Johnny on the spot. Before you can ask for it she had it in front of us. ALMOST LIKE THEY CAN READ MINDS. Way to go Olive Garden for recognizing great talent . Thank you again Ms.Diane, see you at the movies.“
“This is our go to Italian place. Food and service are top notch. Atmosphere is spot on. I did just notice that they are charging extra if you use credit card. I get it but a heads up would be nice. We go at least 1 - 2 times a week and I just noticed it so they had to just start“
“I was visiting my granddaughter in Wake Forest, back in February of this year. They suggested we pick up a pizza from Johnny's. I said okay thinking it was another Pizza Joint. Well, by far it's not just another Pizza Joint!! This is the best by far Pizza I have ever eaten!! I wish we had one in Chesapeake Virginia. The only complaint is, they don't give you a tub of sauce to dip it in. I enjoyed every bite and I look forward to going back next time I'm there!!“
“I just wanted to put in a good (great?) word for Diamond Pizza. Last night we ordered from them for the first time (Greek Pizza), and the pizza could not have been any better! Excellent distribution of ample toppings, an incredibly delicious crust, and cooked to perfection. I can be very critical of pizzas, but this one was bang-on great! Well done Diamond! You will see us again soon.“
