Bella Saratoga is a small Italian style restaurant in downtown Saratoga. The building is old, very very old. It was probably a house at some point. They have seating downstairs, upstairs and in the patio. The servers are great. They're friendly and attentive without being overbearing. The valentines menu is special with higher prices and an automatic 20% gratuity imposed on the bill. The food is good, but not great for this price point. We got the lasagna which was well cooked but somewhat lacking in flavor. I don't think it was significantly better than anything from a grocery store. The ribeye special was decent. The meat was well cooked and well seasoned, but it had tons of fat and was slightly chewy. The piece of meat was very thin, probably less than 16oz for $76 plus tax and tip. It was served with a few fingerling potatoes and some broccolini. Both vegetables were good but nothing special. Overall, it was a decent Valentine's Day meal but there are generally better options.

Terrific meal at Bella Saratoga this last week, as my daughter and I were visiting my brother and his wife. The food was perfect and the service by Marcos was equally excellent.I am surprised Bella only has 3 1/2 stars as it was definitely a 5 star experience. Three of us had the Lasagna...and wow. It is a winner. One had the Linguine & Clams and it was excellent as well.Bella Saratoga was so good that my brother and his wife revisited the restaurant yesterday for lunch. They shared the Lasagna and the loved it.

I highly do NOT recommend eating here. My husband and I came here for a lunch date. He ordered fettuccine alfredo with chicken and I got a chicken caesar salad. My chicken was absolutely terrible, not fresh and within the hour after leaving the restaurant I got food poisoning; vomited 3 times on the drive home. My husband also got food poisoning. He reached out via phone to the manager sharing our experience and the manager tried to defend the restaurant by describing their food as always fresh, top quality. My husband requested a refund, the manager agreed but we never received the refund. It's been a month. Please save your money and your gut; go somewhere else to eat.

We visited Bella Saratoga on a beautiful Sunday evening and enjoyed the lovely ambience on the patio. We shared the carpaccio (8/10) & the steamed clams and mussels for our appetizers (9/10) - both of which were delicious. For our main courses, we had the linguine bolognese, 7.5/10, and the salmon ravioli, 8/10, and they certainly did not disappoint. The servers were very attentive & kept my water filled throughout the meal. Overall, it was a wonderful experience, and I'd definitely go back!

WOW this place is phenomenal! I ordered the linguine di capra and it was SPECTACULAR. My boyfriend ordered the Linguine picante and it was really good as well!For dessert, the tiramisu was the best I've ever had. Our server, "The Cheese Guy," was kind and made sure we had a great experience. We were lucky enough to witness Hugo's magical guitar playing on a Saturday night. Thank you Bella. Every time is better than the last. 10/10

I had high hopes for Bella saratoga... especially since we made plans for Valentine's Day well in advance. Unfortunately, it was a complete letdown.Upon arrival, the setup was already off. They sat us at a table where I was freezing, and when I asked if the heater could be fixed, they couldn't do anything about it. We were left sitting there in the cold, which made the experience uncomfortable right from the start.To make matters worse, no one came to take our order for over 25 minutes. The only interaction we had was when they tossed us a glass of water. It was incredibly frustrating, especially considering we had reservations and were really looking forward to the evening.After waiting and not receiving any attention, we decided to leave--on Valentine's Day, no less, after making plans for the entire month. Needless to say, we won't be coming back, and I wouldn't recommend this place to anyone.

10/10 experience. The server was super nice and gave us the space we needed. We did go the last hour they were open but helped us like it wasn't. The food was 1000/1000. Everything felt super fresh. My boyfriend got the steak and they cooked it the way he wanted it and he said it was the best steak he's ever gotten. It was also very clean. I would definitely recommend to anyone looking for Italian food or for a date night.

It was more than obvious that it's best to wait till warm weather to dine at Bella Saratoga. The dining area inside is cold and stark. The waiter was hard to understand his English. The carpaccio is delicious, but only get a few bites for the price you pay that was ridiculous. Thank God for the porch in the summer. I'll never go back until then.
