Great Italian dishes. Their baked Ziti with meat sauce was delicious. The Chicken Marsala was also delicious. Deserts outstanding also!!

My husband and I have been here 3x times for dinner service now, and every time we come in we are greeted immediately by the kind and welcoming staff, we are seated right away, and drink orders are taken. The atmosphere is nice, the food portions are large and always so delicious. The bathrooms are very clean too. Would recommend this establishment and we love supporting this restaurant! :)

I had a spontaneous order of risotto without chicken that would complement my entree, I was very disappointed. Not enough flavor, the Arborio was too undercooked and I love all my pastas Al dente and know how it should be cooked. For $19+ and my first impression of this restaurant since it came to Leander. The one comment from the waitstaff was that we will leave be the bread, what?? The bread was the worst part, with no flavor, was the salt missed? Not a fan, sorry. I was not wowed and will not consider dining here in the future. Others must like it since they had quite a few diners at 4:00.

What a find! The Alfredo sauce is worth drive, just go!I mean yum!Good price for a pasta sampler that also came with bread and a Caesar salad for under $15? Yes please!!Atmosphere was delightful with all the old masters and some Italian songs - the playlist was grand!Parking: Open and easy!Kid-friendliness: Kids on iPads drive me NUTS but it was a Sunday afternoon so I get it, kids come in and watch their shows without headphones which is just the worst, but it's not the restaurants fault. I'm sure date night isn't like that.

Fresh, unique and interesting flavors. Fresh out of the oven buttery table bread twists complimented the crisp Caesars that came with each entree. Service is excellent. Call ahead to book a table. There's a shortage of quality dining in the L-CP area so Bella Sera gets packed. They still had quick enough delivery amidst a crowd. Eggplant Parmesan, Chx Parm, and Tortellini Michaelangelo all passed the test among grubbers with high expectations. Bella Sera delivered. Will come again. Update: 4 trips later still 100% satisfied with every plate and experience. They are legitimately amazing and consistent. Delicious! Chicken with the Swiss cheese and red pepper white wine sauce was world class.Vegetarian options: A variety of salad options are available beyond the delicious complimentary Caesar sides that prelude each entree and pair brilliantly with garlic knots.Dietary restrictions: Gluten free, vegetarian, sulfite sensitive vinos.Parking: Spacious and plentiful.Kid-friendliness: This is the family friendly home-like environment that your family deserves. They are kind and professional. Seating of tables are relatively close so step outside with screaming babies or kiddos having a moment, the staff won't care but it's a quaint and accommodating tighter space.Wheelchair accessibility: Compliant ✅

This is a nice casual neighborhood Italian restaurant. You can expect a friendly greeting and good service. The atmosphere is modern bistro but quiet enough to have a romantic dinner. Ourparty enjoyed two pasta dishes and two seafood, all our meals were good but trended towards under spiced. Their very reasonable pricing makes this place a great value for a nice dinner.

It's not often I want to give more than 5 stars but this was one of them. I have nothing bad at all I could say about the food or service we received tonight.
