Mamma Mia Thank you…read moreso much for a great dining experience. I called to book a reservation and spoke with Travis (Manager). He was prompt and answered all my questions via email. The plaza that the restaurant is located is small and a little old. The outside has some chairs to wait with your party as it does get packed. We came in on a Friday (10/2/26). Our dinner party was for a group of 18 celebrating my mom's 60th. The hostess/host at the front were all very kind and welcoming. The ambiance is a mixture of causal and a slight bit of fancy in my opinion. I always like a little dim atmosphere. We were seated near the kitchen so it was nice to see how the flow of the BOH to floor flowed so effortlessly. The food was amazing. All my family down to the children enjoyed their meals . Portions were generous and more than enough for the price. It's fair in this economy that is. Raina our waiter was attentive to all of our orders and very patient with my dad who is a bit hard of hearing and answered his questions with so much grace. Lots of birthdays that evening. They sang happy birthday to my mom with us and waited as we finished singing in our native language. Thank you to everyone that was apart of the waitstaff. My mom really enjoyed her birthday dinner!! A few pics for reference, most of my family went right to it before I can snatch a picture . Speaks on how good it was. We will definitely be back!!

This was our first time here and we look forward to coming back. The menu changes daily so when you…read morego not everything on today's menu may be available. Also, I read a couple of reviews that complained that not all menu items were available. Our waiter explained that when they sometimes run out of things, it's because they are a small restaurant. To start our meal, we ordered the Bresaola which was outstanding. For our main course we ordered the Lobster Ravioli and the Chicken Marsala. The Lobster Ravioli was served with a cream sauce and a lot of flavor. The Chicken Marsala was without a doubt the best I've ever tasted and was served a vegetable medley. Service was attentive but also a little slow at times. Some of the slowness may have been caused by the kitchen being very busy. The restaurant is noisy and busy. If possible make a reservation or you may have to wait for a table.

I wanted to try this place because of the great reviews that I have heard…read more It was very difficult to find with the instructions on Waze. Not sure it was a Waze thing or any other map applications have had the similar experiences. But if you use Waze just know it's very hidden next to the AMC theaters. Ambiance is very nice. I guess a lucky for us we went around 3pm because I have heard that there is a wait. But inside it very nice but not very big. I did notice that they only use scannable menus. But just know the menu does change and not sure how often. We did not that the owner or he appeared to be the owner was actively interacting with the patrons. Seemed pretty cool but not sure why we were the last he did come to while seated. But when he did it was very very short unlike the others. Another patron interrupted our conversation and the owner rudely left in the middle of the conversation and never returned. But guess the guy is busy. Service was pretty good and the suggestions were welcomed. We definitely had no problems getting water refilled. We were surprised that they charge for bread service $5. But it was good for 5 small pieces. Two of us had the bolognese and it was just okay. It was definitely not worth the $28 though... very pricey for some pasta and meat sauce they did lack something. And the portion size definitely did not match the price. Although, the short rib ravioli was very delicious and it was $27. However, we were disappointed in the options in the menu. Definitely not what we expected. The thing is with a menu that changes you don't know what to expect the next time and I'm not so sure I personally like that. Maybe if it's posted online ahead of time maybe. After all the hype I can say I am not really impressed but to each their own. I just really think that the menu is very overpriced and especially for the portion size. After our very short talk with the owner sounded as though they do not offer pesto dishes. I can remember several Italian restaurants that I crave and can't wait to visit again and this one isn't one of those.

What a memorable experience, by far one of the best and most remarkable dining experiences of my…read morelife. Let me start off by saying that our server Justin was the highlight of our experience (the food was equally phenomenal). Justin was knowledgeable, insightful, and funny. By the end of the evening I felt like I had reconnected with my long lost pal. We listened intently as from the start Justin offered an assortment of meal suggestions that were actually not on the menu, and items that I would never think would go well together, but they actually did! Such as scallops appetizer with sweet rhubarb, herbs, and an Italian sweet and sour sauce. That was superb. There were sooo many food choices, you'll definitely want to make a second and third visit to keep trying new dishes. We were also in awe with Justin's wine pairing recommendations as well. Wine prices are very reasonable too, so don't be afraid to indulge a bit! For dessert we had cumquat ice cream, which was also not on the menu, and it was pretty wild for an ice cream flavor. Also ordered an espresso. What can I say except "wow!" All in all, the food was spectacular and was equally matched by our server. Will be back again soon to try their constantly revolving menu!

First off, the restaurant has a really cool vibe and decor. They also have a great menu with lots of options. We decided to get a pizza and split it between us, and it was delicious!

Overall, we had a really nice experience, and I'm already looking forward to my next visit!

My wife picked this spot for our anniversary dinner. We agreed we wanted a cozy place that we…read morehadn't tried before. The food was pretty good. I got fettuccine alfredo with broccoli, my wife got the mushroom artichoke fettuccine with their marinara. One of us got the italian bread and the other the garlic, so we could try both. Portions were pretty good, not enormous but definitely enough. The sauces were good, and the vegetables and pasta itself were all cooked to perfection. Can't say it was an unforgettable-tasting meal, but was at least as good as other restaurants nearby. Our waitress said she was relatively new, but she was very attentive and we never felt like it was hard to get her help or attention. Wish I had gotten her name to pay her a more formal compliment. It also happened to be one of their spaghetti special days, and $9.99 spaghetti with salad and bread is a great value. When we do come back it'll definitely be on another special day. Can't think of another Italian place nearby with the same portions for that price. My one and only complaint- I felt like the music was a HUGE missed opportunity. We went seeking cozy, and the old style booths provided a bit of that, but they were playing current country music hits the whole time. Would have totally completed the package and checked every box had they played something a little more on-theme. Nothing wrong with country music, but in a small, cozy italian restaurant, it would've been so much more immersive to play something Italian, or at least classical. Don't skip the good food and prices because of that, but hopefully a helpful suggestion to make the place just a little bit cooler!

I visited Bella Trattoria at the Mission Inn in Riverside on July 4th, and it was a beautiful…read moreevening. We began with handmade meatballs and a Caprese salad featuring heirloom tomatoes and burrata mozzarella, both appetizers were fresh and full of flavor. For our main courses, I had the lasagna and my friend ordered the spaghetti Bolognese, both were cooked to perfection with rich, comforting flavors. While the food earned a solid 4 out of 5, the service was a bit inconsistent, likely due to the holiday rush, so I would rate it a 3 out of 5. The staff did correct a mix-up and even gave us an extra piece of tiramisu and cappuccinos to go. Afterward, we took them to the park as the fireworks began at Mount Rubidoux. The ambiance of the Mission Inn gave the evening a classic, European feel, so I would give it a 4 out of 5. Overall, it was a memorable evening filled with great food and a wonderful atmosphere. We will return. Bon appétit, ¡Buen provecho, Buon appetito, Guten Appetit, enjoy!

Food was good but I don't feel good enough to justify the prices. $27 for spaghetti and meatballs. Spaghetti sauce was plentiful but bland. Meatballs were much tastier. I don't think they cooked the meatballs in the sauce, which would have enhanced the flavor of both. It's a nice and fun place to try but I wouldn't put it on regular rotation.

My grandkids love it here, and honestly, that's what matters most to me…read more This restaurant has been around for over 25 years, and it's filled with memories for our family. I remember bringing my own children here when they were young, and now I get to continue that tradition with my grandchildren. No, it's not high-end Italian dining, and it doesn't try to be. What it does offer is a family-friendly atmosphere, comforting food, and a place where kids are genuinely excited to visit. My grandkids love the butter pasta just as much as I do, and it's always a guaranteed win when we dine here. We recently stopped by after their school recital, and they were absolutely thrilled when we were seated in the trolley. Their excitement alone made the visit memorable. The staff was friendly and welcoming, service was prompt, this location tends to be quieter than many family restaurants, which made it easy to relax and enjoy our meal. For me, this place isn't just about the food it's about the memories and the spumoni ice cream . Watching my grandchildren enjoy the same restaurant that my children loved years ago is something I treasure. We'll definitely continue coming back for years to come

Well, the place is nice, the people are nice but the food no so good! I had the Chicken Parm and it…read morelooked delicious, after a couple of bite the chicken was horribly cooked, when I was chewing it, it felt like I was just chewing rubber, it was disgusting and to top it off my wife got the same thing and it came with the same issue!!!! Extremely disgusting, the manager offer to replace our food with something else but my appetite was gone and my stomach was feeling kind of weird. Tasting the chicken like that it actually ruined the whole experience. Also, we order meatballs, they were not tender like they are supposed to be. Would I recommend this place? NO! I think there are better places with better food than here. As I was typing this here at the restaurant, my wife just informed me that her lasagna was not good either, the pasta was over cooked and mushy (my wife replace her chicken parm for lasagna). Funny thing is that while we're waiting to get a table an older gentleman told us "this is the shittiest food I ever had" my wife and I looked at each other and laugh because we did not believe him but he was 10000000% right. PS The manager tried to blame me for not liking the chicken, but how can I like something that half was really tender and the other have was not? She said, it all depends on the customer's preference! Really lady? I had two different texture in one piece of chicken. I am 46 years old and I have eaten a lot of chicken in my life so I know when something is not right. Accountability is very important instead of trying to blame the customer.

The meat and cheese were fresh as well. - Hot Pastrami Sandwich 8/10 The pastrami was good but I feel that the bread needed to be toasted. Other than that it was good.
