There is something I would like to apologize for. The male staff member who made my cappuccino created beautiful latte art in the shape of a seahorse. When he told me he had drawn a “seahorse,” I didn’t understand what animal that was and replied, “I don’t know.” Later, when I looked back at the photo, I realized it was indeed a perfectly made seahorse. I regret my response.
His design was wonderful, and the cappuccino itself was the best coffee I had during my time in Rome. Thank you for the memorable experience. I truly appreciated both the food and the kindness.
The pizza and Parmigiana di melanzane were both really good. The pizza dough was soft and light, and the eggplant was rich, well balanced, and full of flavor. The carbonara was all right as well.
We stopped by Bella Napoli around 10 AM, and it was the perfect start on a rainy day. The pizza and pasta we ordered were absolutely delicious—everything tasted incredibly fresh, with authentic flavors that transported us straight to Italy. The ingredients were top-notch, and each bite was a delight.
The ambiance is spotless, clean, and very comfortable, creating a welcoming and relaxed atmosphere. The staff were exceptionally friendly, attentive, and courteous, making us feel right at home from the moment we walked in.
Highly recommend Bella Napoli for anyone craving genuine Italian food in a warm setting. We'll definitely be back!
All dishes we've ordered were absolutely perfect. Big portions and fresh ingredients. Tiramisu was so yummy too, especially with a cup of coffee 🤌🏻
p.s: pizza Regina is a masterpiece!😍
