This family-owned restaurant west of downtown has charm and integrity. Come hungry as the pasta portions are unbelievable. You can ask for a half order and still have food for the next few days. Bella Notte serves everything from Chicken Vesuvio to Zuppa di Pesce over Capellini. It has a charming, old-world feel with a wonderful mix of clientele and more than a hint of old Chicago when Al Capone was in charge. No Italian restaurant would be complete without a respectable wine list and Bella Notte is no exception. Bring your ... read more

Rude owner/manager, food not worth the price, not very clean – The food was good, fairly expensive, some of our silverware was dirty and the staff is very snotty & rude. A group of us went so that 2 of us could redeem our Internet coupons. The manager/owner? (a italiano prince wannabe) told us one per table and clearly not interested in offering a solution (computer won't divide it or give to separate bills, etc.) The whole time he was very rude and we were clearly wasting our time bothering him. Then he said, you could sit ... read more
This place is Great – I really loved this place. we sat outside. I love the location. great food and service!
Unequal treatment?? – After a relaxing experience at a local spa, we went to Bella Notte because it was close by. Immediately upon entering the establishment, my mood turned sour. Rather than a "good evening" or a friendly gesture from the guy at the host desk (likely the manager or owner), he asks us "What's up guys?" as though we stopped in to ask for directions or something. Hmmm...what else would we be doing there other than eating?? I had an inkling of the reason for his rudeness, but I continued to watch him closely th... read more
WORST SERVICE/ RUDE OWNERS/TOO LOUD – Rude owners, if you are looking for hospitality this is not the place. The food is ok, but only if you like mexican- italian with bad service. The place is so loud in there you cannot even hear the person next to you. If you are looking for a smile, good food, good service do not waste your time here, go down the block to la scarola for real Italian with great service!
Worst Service Ever – Awful, awful service, thanks to the ?owner? Ramon Aguirre who I earlier thought was the manager. I took my husband there to celebrate his 40th birthday. Upon arriving I asked the person who I thought was the manager if they could do something special. He mentioned adding a candle to my desert of choice. After getting the bill there was stinking $5 charge. I questioned Ramon about the charge very nicely, (thinking it was an honest mistake) only to have him respond very rudely without even looking at me ?I... read more
Cozy and noisy, this neighborhood Italian spot serves large portions at a good value. – In Short This small, dark restaurant is romantic early on, turning noisy and hectic during prime time, when crowds of families and takeout diners settle in at tables or wait at the bustling bar. Large portions (and convenient half portions) of reasonably priced southern Italian fare are the draw; bowls of pasta are dished out tableside. Dishes include veal chop Siciliana in tomato and onion, and pasta plates like homemade rigatoni in vodk... read more
Sauces of The Gods – The best food in the city. Not cheap, but it shouldn't be at this quality. Service is well above average, but again it's about the food. Mussels/red sauce!! Shrimp Scampi!! Marsalla Sauce!!! Whitefish Velasco is unbelievable - a vesuvio styled sauce with jalapenos!!! All of the fish I have had is prepared well. I agree the house salad is great and for a salad/appetizer the asparagus salad with balsamic sauce is awesome. The other remarkable food comment on this resturant I have is an opposite complaint t... read more
A MUST – I love this place. Great food and good service. Everything is fresh. The house salad is a must as well as the Italian steak. Reservations recommened. Price is also good not expensive.
Great food, good value, ok atmosphere – The food is absolutely fabulous. The atmosphere however is a little poorly lit, dingy, and sometimes smoky (there is not truly separate smoking area.) The whole restaurant borders on cheesy, but I have to tell you, the food is truly amazing. The appetizers are minimalistic and change frequently depending on the season and availability of fresh ingredients. The dinners are consistently mmmmmm.
