Broiled Seafood Platter
Abby M.

You can see from my prior reviews that my family and I have been going to Bella Costa for almost 15 years, and we've always loved the food. We liked the place so much that we'd recommended it to friends and family. After having dinner there recently, that will change. We sat at the bar, ordered some wine, and started with the escargot. The snails were tiny and the garlic flavor was overpowering. It literally tasted like we were eating roasted garlic cloves disguised as snails. I've had escargot many times before and these were just not good. For entrées I ordered the Black Angus Steak Au Poivre and my Mom got the Broiled Seafood Platter. Our meals took very a long time to come out and when we finally got them, both our dishes were lukewarm and my steak was overcooked. An older gentleman, who I have seen at the restaurant before and I believe is one of the owners, was walking around and we flagged him over. We told him the food was cold and that my steak was overcooked. Either he didn't care or didn't believe us, but he acted like we were in the wrong. Neither my Mom or I had eaten more than a few bites before bringing the food to his attention. I get it was a Saturday night and the restaurant was busy, but if a customer is telling you their food is cold and overcooked, wouldn't you want to know? If I'm paying $38 for a steak, I expect it to not be overcooked. He finally offered us a free desert, which we declined. His attitude ruined both our appetites and moods. My Mom sent her food back and said she didn't want it, so they took that off our bill. I probably should have done the same, but I did end up taking my steak home. The young lady working at the bar could tell we were upset, and she was very apologetic. Both my Mom and I told her it wasn't her fault and I did leave her a nice tip. Overall, we were VERY disappointed with the food and the owner's attitude. It was not the quality we'd come to expect over the years. I won't be in a hurry to go back anytime soon.

Veal Monte Carlo dinner special

I was on way for an Italian meal in Boston North end and when not in mood for Cronin Boston, parking impossible... then Bella Costa is. Better alternative.I stop in for a dinner and always nice dinner specials. The grilled romaine lettuce is excellent and the homemade dressing is like crack. The I could eat that everyday and not feel like a rabbit... Romaine always crisp and whatever is in dressing makes this a great appetizer. The veal dishes here are all excellent as veal cuts like butter and better than veal dishes I ate in the Boston North end. Pasta and all dishes are ample size and 2 meals . Fresh bread to start ... piano player ambiance Friday, Saturday nights. Excellent bar and service

Fried Scallops

We went out as a family for Mother's Day here. Overall a good experience! A lot of families had a similar idea, so the place was pretty packed. The setup of the establishment is a bit odd, so getting around felt a tiny bit like an obstacle course - but not a huge deal. Everyone enjoyed their meals (kids got chicken parm, wife got seafood risotto, and I had chicken & veal Marsala). We also ordered some scallops as an appetizer (pictured). All in all it was a good experience. The amount of people in there caused the service to be a tad slow, but I don't really put that on them - they had a lot of people to handle. My wife and I plan on coming back here during a "non holiday" where the two of us can grab dinner alone :)

If I could give 0 stars I would, the should pay them to eat this. My grandpa said it tasted like shit and my brother found a hair in his food. Absolutely disgusting don't eat here

Veal Parmigiana with homemade pasta.
Stringfellow H.

Strong 4 stars. The restaurant reminded me of a classic 50s/60s/70s Massachusetts style Italian family restaurant. Veal parm and homemade pasta was wicked good. Over the course of the evening I had two waitresses and both were excellent! Enjoyable evening with enjoyable food.

Arcadia mix Greek salad just awesome!

No flavor to the bland food, I don't think they even use salt and pepper, everything taste frozen and not even good quality.
