A group of 7 of us, including a 3-year old, came here to celebrate my father-in-law's 70th birthday. We had reservations and were seated upstairs. We were the only ones up there the whole time so that was really special and we got lucky. I'm surprised it wasn't busier! The staff was really great. The food was fantastic!! We had the delicious fresh bread and orange spread brought out first. We ordered 4 appetizers including the artichoke, calamari (so good!), and steamed mussels & clams. Everything was so fresh and flavorful. Two of us had the lobster ravioli special for our main course and it was SO GOOD!! My sister-in-law had a fish special that was delicious. My father-in-law had a spicy pasta that he very much enjoyed. And there were 2 Cioppinos ordered that even my son loved!! Cannot wait to celebrate more special occasions here in the future.

We visited Bella Saratoga on a beautiful Sunday evening and enjoyed the lovely ambience on the patio. We shared the carpaccio (8/10) & the steamed clams and mussels for our appetizers (9/10) - both of which were delicious. For our main courses, we had the linguine bolognese, 7.5/10, and the salmon ravioli, 8/10, and they certainly did not disappoint. The servers were very attentive & kept my water filled throughout the meal. Overall, it was a wonderful experience, and I'd definitely go back!

Terrific meal at Bella Saratoga this last week, as my daughter and I were visiting my brother and his wife. The food was perfect and the service by Marcos was equally excellent. I am surprised Bella only has 3 1/2 stars as it was definitely a 5 star experience. Three of us had the Lasagna...and wow. It is a winner. One had the Linguine & Clams and it was excellent as well. Bella Saratoga was so good that my brother and his wife revisited the restaurant yesterday for lunch. They shared the Lasagna and the loved it.

WOW this place is phenomenal! I ordered the linguine di capra and it was SPECTACULAR. My boyfriend ordered the Linguine picante and it was really good as well! For dessert, the tiramisu was the best I've ever had. Our server, "The Cheese Guy," was kind and made sure we had a great experience. We were lucky enough to witness Hugo's magical guitar playing on a Saturday night. Thank you Bella. Every time is better than the last. 10/10

Great service and the best Italian food in the area. We were actually referred here by a waiter at another Italian restaurant. The food is excellent, but the prices are extremely high. I expect that from the neighborhood it's located in, but at least the food is worth it. Our waiter was awesome, he told us all the specials and made sure not to overwhelm us during the meal. The hostess was great too, she made sure to smile at everyone she passed by or made eye contact with. She also made conversation with me, my wife and another couple who were dining there. We decided to eat outside, and other than random motorcycles revving as they pass by, it was very nice. All in all, I recommend this restaurant, but don't come here if you're behind on rent, you might not be able to make it before the month is up.

I wandered over here from my stay at the hotel down the street. I was craving Italian and some great wine. I found a long list of California wines, as well as Italian ones. They start out with a wonderful bread basket - shaped in little triangles that I wasn't sure if I should cut or to add butter, or dip. But delightful and warm just the same. Sitting on their patio on a gorgeous April afternoon, I was flying solo for the night and enjoyed watching the cars and folks walking their dogs on the Main Street. What a cute downtown area! They had some scrumptious specials offered, but I opted for the gnocchi . Aquinas Cabernet and Italian for the perfect late, travel day dinner. Staff were wonderful. It definitely has a date night feel, but there was certainly a mix of visitors from traveler looking types, to friend gatherings. There are historic building placards (1800's!) on the front of the building, noting their inability to modify for special needs (no ramps to go in the building) because of its protected status and there are a lot of stairs. I didn't venture inside, but the historic home was cute from the outside, and the bar looked fun.

Came in 10/21/2033 dinner time. The atmosphere was relaxing and bright. Wonderful music playing in the background by a guitarist ( we were lucky that he was there that night). Surprisingly wasn't cold even when sitting outside. The service was great except it felt like he forgot our bread and butter refill but it was alright. Ordered the carpaccio which is honestly the most unique thing I ate in my life ($16). However it is thinly sliced fillet mignon cooked in lemon so it's super sour. It is definitely worth the try. I ordered the grilled salmon. ($36) Let me just say, the lemon sauce with the salmon was the best combo. The salmon was crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. I just wish I had more. Lastly we ordered a chocolate decadence ($10). It was extremely rich and creamy paired with whip cream and a raspberry sauce that felt very sour. I just wished I had milk to pair with the chocolate. Overall. Great experience. Definitely worth the visit. I would check out the menu first as it is on the pricey side. Heard that this was a family owned restaurant with extremely friendly owners.

Delicious good quality Italian restaurant. I tried the lasagna which is a specialty and one of my favorites and it was fantastic!!! Calamari was crispy and tender. Chicken picatta perfectly done. I like the decor inside. They have a full bar and upstairs or outside seating too. Service was a little slow but we were a walk-in on a Friday night. I usually cook Italian at home and go out for things that I can't make well or are too much for home cooking. This place was extremely satisfying.
