FIRE THE BARTENDER. DON'T TELL HIM WHY HE LOVES THE BUBLICITY

Fading Star – You know a restaurant is in decline when they throw out customers who complain about the lousy service, second rate overpriced food, psychotic bartenders, and clumsy busboys. "Shoot the messenger" is the owners motto. Once known for it's original menu and quality ingredients, this fading star now rushes customers in & out so they can't see what they are eating. giovani is worst mgr in NYC. Bring back Marco. He WAS Bella Blu.

Good place for groups – I came here with my family (4) about a week ago and I almost didn't come because of the pretentiosness of the Italian restaurants on the upper east side. I was pleasantly surprised by the service, which was courteous and attentive. I was expecting good italian food and they met my expectations. i had the beef carpaccio and they certainly seem to take a little more time to prepare it than the other italian restaurants on th epper east side. All in all, a great place to take family, friends, or a group.... read more

Dining Experience – Everything about this genuine Italian hot spot is incredible. You will be served the best pastas or appetizers in town, and the wine selection whoooo. Our waiter was from tuscany and the young Manager was from Rome, and made us feel like being in Italy at our best friends house. We really are glad there still are places like Bellablu.

Avoid Always – Been here before and food was okay. Only prompted to write this review after stopping in 10 min before turning over to Dinner service today. Let me introduce the scene by saying a( we stayed in town because we had US open tickets and b) left a game viewing at a local bar looking to grab a good early dinner. Dressed in Jeans and a t (which is not uncommon for this establishment) We were told that "we do not open until 5 (again only ten minutes prior) to which the bus boy getting off duty and the person telling ... read more

Fine Italian Food, Way Overpriced – Let me start of by saying that the food at Bella Blu is typical of a solid neighborhood restaurant. The pizza is delicious and most of the food is a pleasure to consume. I even like the decor, which for many is a sore point. The aptmosphere is cool and it is overall a fun place. But it is way overpriced. For another twenty bucks you could go to L'Impero and Babbo. If you aren't careful you will run up a huge tab. The food is worth paying for, but I have issues with paying $40 for a main co... read more

Cheats customers – Repeatedly cheats customers in various ways. Stay away. Poor customer service. Lies to customers. Should be shut down.
