Bella Saratoga: Authentic Italian Dining in Saratoga, CA

Stopped in here with a party of 6 for dinner on a Thursday night at around 7pmish and got seated immediately. Ben was our server and he was fantastic. Gave us great and honest recommendations and terrific service. He also made our cocktails and they were delicious- highly recommend the espresso martini!!!! All of us thoroughly enjoyed our food which was served fairly quickly after ordering. We started with apps: calamari, burrata and beef carpaccio. Our entrees were: braised short ribs, lasagna, chicken piccata, bolognese, veal piccata and an apple walnut salad. We sat outdoors and the weather was cool and perfect. Definitely recommend !

On my vacation we decided to try Bella Saratoga. We loved it so much we will go back. Here’s what I ordered, the Pasta Primavera. This is one of my favorite dishes and am always curious to see how each restaurant prepares it. It’s a delicious dish. It leaves a remarkable taste that is not over powering with spices, it’s slightly spicy but not at a point where you step back. It makes you lean into your dish for more. Would I order it again? Of course! The service I highly enjoyed. The waiter I found to be so polite and accommodating. He carried himself well and spoke softly and articulated well which made me listen so much more clearly and calmly. He was a wonderful young man. Thank you sir and thank you Bella for making our evening so special and memorable. We’ll be back.

We came here for our wedding anniversary dinner and had a lovely time. Our server/bartender made us some special cocktails which we appreciated. The food was good especially crab cakes and gnocchi sauce. Staff were friendly and attentive. We sat in the patio where they had heaters and it was very comfortable.
