Bella Victoria Italian Cuisine

This doesn't look like anything too special from the outside but the experience will be fun. We enjoyed a dinner with included bread and salad. The house vinaigrette was tasty and the Sirloin Alfredo was delicious as was the sausage and peppers that was a bit spicy for me but the hubby liked it. The chocolate torte was a good finish. The only things I would have changed was the sauce was thin/watery for my liking and it was a bit too warm in the restaurant. Server was attentive and friendly.

This was a small spot with a decent sized bar and a private room available for larger parties. The menu had traditional Italian style dishes along with some seafood mixed in and other intriguing choices. The service was friendly and appreciated while the food came out in a timely manner.For appetizers, the bruschetta al Pomodoro ($12) and mozzarella sticks ($10) were tried. The bruschetta had mini heirloom tomatoes, basil, garlic, ricotta, and olive oil on a crostini piece of bread. It was solid. The garlic was very apparent as a lot seemed to be used. The only issue was the crostini not holding up the best. The mozzarella sticks were okay as well. For my entrée, I went with the scallops Italiano ($32). It also came with a house salad. I opted for their house dressing of a white vinaigrette, no issues there. The scallops were pan seared with a peppercorn dusting over a wild mushroom parmigiano risotto. This was average at best. The four scallops were prepared okay but did not appear to be seasoned enough. The risotto was cheesy but seemed to be cooked a little too long as it was mushy.Will I go back? Debatable.

Hands down, my favorite place in Austin! Def come here - fabulous service and food!Every meal is made to order. Even so, our wait was not long. Let's start with the salad: simple, GREEN (not iceberg lettuce!), a few red onion slices, a few olives, a few grape tomatoes, and a light amount of the house dressing. The tomato soup is as good as people say. I am very picky about tomato soup. Theirs was delish. Flavorful. The bowl was big; two of us shared it. Chicken piccata for dinner. The chicken was perfectly cooked! The sauce was flavorful. The pasta was also perfectly cooked. Large portion. Left overs. Our waitress was fantastic - helpful, fun, funny. We arrive a little on the late side and she was welcoming and said come in in! If you find yourself in Austin, come here.

Good experience as we passed through town. Lots of good food choices on menu. Service was fast and friendly. She helped me choose a favorite sausage and pepper. Nice spicy choice.

Very helpful, kind service! Ambience was pleasant and quiet this Tuesday afternoon. Food was excellent and quickly served.

Stopped in during a cross country Rv odyssey because of the 4 1/2 stars here on Yelp. We were seated by Fernando who was also our waiter. Very knowledgeable and professional young man who we found is the son of the owner. Tammy The Tornado ordered her favorite chicken piccata and I the chicken Parm sand. First out we're the warm dinner rolls with butter. Delish! Next salads. Simple mixed greens with onion and black olives. Next came the chicken dishes. The Tornado loved her piccata and to be perfectly honest with you the chicken Parm sandwich was the best I've ever had! I'm 63 years old and grew up just a few miles from little Italy in NYC and I've been to Italy many times. When I say it's awesome it is. We only wish we didn't live 2000 miles away so we could eat here every week. Bravo to Victoria family. From the head honcho Carlos to our super server Fernando to his mom Maria and all the rest of the Victorias involved! Crazy Bernie is a huge fan! It's family run Italian restaurants like yours that make me happy to be an American who can eat such a awesome food without flying 15 hours to Italy!

Very good quality food. I had the spaghetti which was great. Service was good and ample parking available.

My wife and I finally made it to Bella Victoria on Veterans Day. I believe that an Italian restaurant can be judged by its lasagna and its meatballs, so that's what I ordered. My wife ordered the pesto ravioli and a side of Italian sausage. Service took longer than it should have, but I am willing to forgive that as they are a new restaurant and it takes times to work out the kinks. And I'm pleased to say it was worth the wait. The meatballs were simple, yet juicy, the sausage a nice blend of spices, the ravioli creamy, yet flavorful, and the lasagna generously portioned with a great balance of meat, cheese, sauce and noodles to ensure that you don't get a boring bite.It's good to see that Austin now has an Italian restaurant that is not pizza-centric (though they do have personal pizzas).

Best restaurant in town. Not overly high in price.Love their date night Wednesday's.

Our team was in Austin for the bike race this weekend. Bella Victoria was picked for the team dinner. We loved having the back room to ourselves. Lovely variety of delicious food choices. I saw seafood, steak, pizzas and a lot of pasta ordered and heard zero complaints. Server was able to get the separate checks done properly even when they weren't sitting together and the refills were plentiful.
