“Villa Bella is such an amazing restaurant. It can be difficult to get a reservation here as it is really popular in the Burke area, but that's because it is such a unique spot. I love the wood-fired pizzas from here because this style adds to the crispiness of the pizza crust. Calamari fritti is nice and airy, unlike many places where they sometimes make the appetizer too dense or oily. Reasonable amount of salt in the calamari fritti, which impresses me because I don't find that often in the calamari I've gotten from other Italian restaurants. The fried mozzarella and arancini are also some must-haves. Before eating here, I used to not like arancini, but this place has converted me into someone who loves arancini.With pasta dishes, some of my personal favorites are the ziti alla Paesana, manicotti, and ravioli. Their chicken parm pasta is also really good.This cozy restaurant nestled in Burke definitely sets the bar high for Italian food in the DMV and has personally elevated my palate on Italian cuisine. I highly recommend giving this restaurant a try, and even a faraway drive is worth it in my opinion. I definitely hope to come back here.“
“I ordered wings, boneless wings, fries, and pizza. The wings were very large, meaty, and delicious! The hot buffalo sauce was just the right amount. It could have been a bit spicier but then I love my food SPICY! The boneless wings were delicious and very juicy. The pizza was the best I've had in a while and definitely the best in Burke. Our food was delivered quickly and still hot. Overall it was a very good surprise - definitely exceeded what I was expecting (based on my experience with Pisano's in Alexandria and Pisano's in Bailey's Crossroads). Writing this review has got me craving Burke Pisano's pizza... gotta go and order me one!“
“I came in ad hoc as I needed to do some things in the area on a weekday morning. It’s a small deli with very limited seating. The employee/owner was friendly. The portioning was great in the sub but I felt that it didn’t have as much flavor as it should, maybe more oil/seasoning would’ve made it better. I paid almost $20 for a 12” spicy Italian with a bag of chips which I also thought was pretty expensive. Overall I’d come back to try their other stuff but probably won’t go for their subs again.“
“Just an amazing beautiful atmosphere, with exquisite service and wonderful authentic Italian cuisine. Owner is an awesome person who will greet you personally and check in on you and your guests pro actively. The waiters are courteous and on top of everything. I wish I could dine there every night! I will definitely go back.“
