My husband is hard to please but loved the Fettuccine Alfredo with chicken! The pasta is made fresh! I ordered the special of the day: Salmon Florentine -Grilled salmon served over penne pasta with a rich sauce of butter, spinach, sun-dried tomatoes, cherry tomatoes, Parmesan, Calabrian peppers, and fresh lemon zest. A flavorful, spicy twist. Delicious!!! Our server, Kara K, was very friendly & made several helpful recommendations, including her favorite: Chicken Involtini:chicken breast, stuffed, spinach, mozzarella, sun dried tomatoes, tomatoes, mushrooms, sweet marsala sauce I can't wait to go back & try their pizza w pepperoni & mushrooms AND Kara's recommendation! Everyone was very friendly & the man that seated us told us they were adding an outdoor patio soon!

Came to Austin for a friend's birthday and this is one of the places we went to eat that was his preference. I could see why. The wait time agreeable for a Saturday and once we were seated the server was very attentive. I ordered the chicken marsala and it was delicious. (I love mushrooms). I wish we would have also tried one of their appetizers, but based on how much of my entree I ate, I don't think I would have survived! Haha. Everyone at the table enjoyed their food and drinks which solidified this as a quality restaurant. The feel of the restaurant was also very pleasant, even if we kind of suspected a few of the paintings were AI generated from Amazon. ( Not that there was anything wrong with that. Just something we noticed.) I think my only concern was that the pasta felt a little closer to al dente, but that might just be how they prefer it here. It's not my personal preference, but I won't hold it against them.Keep up the good work! (And watch your cook times!)

I walked in for lunch, the place had a decent lunch crowd, not slow but not super busy either.I stood there looking at the little menu board with their happy hour specials. The one wait staff looked at me and I asked do I sit anywhere or do you have a table for 1? He asked me to follow which I did, he sat me away from people and towards back. I am ok with that, however there was no communication between the one who sat me and the actual wait person of that table, so I sat and sat and sat while different wait staff including the gentleman who sat me. Finally 10 minutes of sitting and not acknowledged I was finally acknowledged by a gentleman who asked of if I have been served, he quickly apologized for the delay. He was nice and helpful and inquired of it was my first time, which was and he had some great recommendations.I ordered the beef tortellini and a Cesar salad, let me say if you leave hungry then it is your own fault. The Cesar salad was enough for 2 people, the dressing was fresh and every piece had been covered and the beef tortellini was hot, fresh and delicious. It is definitely a place for a little longer lunch since everything is made so fresh,The restaurant has a nice soft feel, to dark colors, soft lighting and a full bar. The drink menu looks outstanding, my next visit I will have to try one!I would say if lunch portions were smaller it would be a wonderful lunch place, but the feel is definitely for dinner with friends, family or date night. I can say I have a to go container for my next meal!If I could change anything it would be the staff awareness to individuals that are seated even if they are not seated on their area. A little acknowledgment goes along way. Would recommend everyone to come and enjoy a wonderful fresh Italian lunch or dinner!

Just wanted to update after coming back several times. Still loving this location. Our go to Italian spot now. Food is always great, live music is great, service is always great. The owner was in this last time and was nice to see her checking in. We went earlier than usual around 5:30 on a Saturday and it was packed. I do suggest getting an rsvp if you have a larger crowd, we only had 2 people so they go us in fast. The one thing I could say for feedback is the olive oil they give for bread, i ordered extra bread and the amount of oil is minimal, so offering a bit more dipping oil would be nice.

After visiting twice, I can safely say this is one of the best gems in the area! The fish pasta and live music are a great way to end a week! We have not been disappointed in any dish, and if you can get the special (any special), I would suggest it!! The Frank Sinatra singer is outstanding, and the service is top-notch!!

I didn't dine in so this review is for my takeout experience. The food is top notch! So delicious, we got the salmon penne and the shrimp carbonara, they were both amazing. Their service is very quick and we were greeted nicely. The restaurant seems very nice and I can't wait to come back to try the dining experience.

To celebrate my wife's birthday, we decided to treat ourselves to a nice lunch at Bellissima. We'd heard great things about it from friends and it was conveniently located.We started our meal with a pair of refreshing Bellinis and enjoyed the complimentary bread. Our server recommended the Spicy Chicken pasta and Chicken Involtini, and both dishes were absolutely delicious. It is clear that Bellissima uses fresh, high-quality ingredients, and the food felt incredibly wholesome.The service was excellent too and the server kept checking on us at regular interval. The ambiance is pretty chick and modern and we liked it. If you haven't already been to Bellissima, I highly recommend it. This is now our go-to Italian restaurant, and we can't wait to return in the future

Any chance I get to try a new Italian spot, I go for it. This specific location has had its struggles over the years from past restaurants so I'm rooting for Bellissima!We've now ordered from them twice, once to-go and once dine in. Our to-go order included a spicy sausage and mushroom pizza along with the included bread. The pizza was fantastic! The large sausage bites covered every slice and was filled with flavor. I definitely wouldn't call it too spicy but it was very tasty. The only negative was that the bread rolls definitely don't travel well. The 25 mins it took for us to drive home and set up the table was enough for them to be decently hard. Not a major issue but something to keep in mind. Our dine in meal included a variety of pastas and the summer salad. The summer salad was the perfect starter for the table. Just enough for us all to have a few bites before our pasta. The short rib ragu was perfect. Fall apart meat that melted in your mouth with plenty of pene to go with it. Unfortunately, the bolognese was not the best. The pasta was overcooked so it was more of a mush in your mouth. All in all, the staff were fantastic, and the fresh bread rolls at the table are always a wonderful touch. I'm happy to have this place as an option down the street.
