Customer Review Summary
Pasta draws the most praise at Bella Rosa, with one reviewer calling the carbonara, made here with gluten free pasta, the best they have had and another describing it as the best pasta they have ever had, with dishes adjusted to what diners wanted. Pizza comes close behind, including a Bella Rossa pizza described as the best in years, and a reviewer who found the pizza tasty but wanted more toppings. Starters of bruschetta and caprese, plus spaghetti, lasagne, risotto and chicken penne, also earn good words. Reviewers describe the food as fresh and delicious, say it felt like home cooking, and call the lunch menu a great deal. Staff are repeatedly called friendly and attentive, one reviewer notes spotless floors and toilets, and others praise the flowers and decoration. The one recurring caveat is busyness: one diner waited a while for mains, and another says the place fills up, so they suggest booking beforehand, especially in the evening. One table was offered a complimentary coffee after their meal.

“First time I have ordered from here a couple of days ago as I discovered they can do gluten free pasta. My favourite is always the carbanara. Normally I get it from other restaurants and is always nice but can never eat it all as find its too sickly after a while eith the cream sauce. I tried it here and omg it was delicious best I have ever had and demolished it all. By far the best carbanara I have had. Will definitely be my new favourite place to get it from.”
