Thus is a chocolate milk with no espresso that is labeled as a mocha. Don't get the mocha. Go somewhere else
Adrian A.

This place seems really great with all the reviews that I saw. Drove up excited to taste some great coffee. Didn't even know they actually sell food but I didn't get any. Started to order just two large mochas on ice because of a long drive. Got my drink expecting a mocha taste but it just straight up tasted like chocolate milk! Started thinking, "is there even espresso in this drink?". Got up to ask the ladies at the counter to find out, they don't even put espresso in their mocha. It's made with chocolate milk and just 3 ounces of cold brew -_- . Then I had to pay for actual espresso shots SEPARATELY. In total I spent $16 just for two not even made right mochas. It's was so high because i tipped. The worst part is that when I paid the extra for the 4 shots of espresso, they didn't even make them until 10 minutes went by after I had to ask them about it.

Thanks to my Yelp friend Jim B's review, my husband and I had Bella Java on our radar on a drive between Boise and Bend. We're glad we stopped . We recommend it for a quick bite on the road. These are folks working very hard to run a mom and pop restaurant in a small town. They are open six days a week which must be exhausting since I imagine the owner(s) are there all the time. VIBE: Pride of ownership shows throughout in doing their best to maintain and make cozy the old space. Sparkling clean. The sound system was playing country western selections that were of the '60's era on the day of our visit. FOOD: We thought this might allow us to do a grab and go deli sandiwch or take out but they really aren't set up for that as much as eat in. Or at least that was so on the day of our visit. For my vegetarian friends I'll poiint out many of the items here are meat centric. We're not vegetarian but lean that way particularly on road trips and the options were limited. If you eat meat, in particular beef and poultry you'll be good to go. The cheese and veggie sandwich we shared was good enough and big enough for two light eaters. There were no fresh bakery products the day we popped in but a couple of day old options. I can't say whether the java is bella because although I ordered an Americano when we placed our lunch order, I am still waitiing on it to arrive as I write this review. And it wasn't for the lack of my asking - twice - when it might be ready. SERVICE; The young woman who waited on us was cordial but seemed a confused as we asked quesionts about items on the menu. Also while only a handful of people were inside, service was very slow. That's not a criticism but a comment to help you plan your stop here. It took longer than we expected. VALUE: So inexpensive it is difficult to believe they can make money. We kept that in mind to provide extra in the tip. THIS N THAT: 1) PARKING: On street. 2) ACCESSIBILITY: Technically level in but there is a gap, maybe 3" or more, of "chewed up" floor inside the front door which could be tough for wheelchair users to traverse. Once in it is all on one floor. Loo is accessible for space but no grab bars for function for folks who use wheelchairs.

Burns,OR May 2026…read more We came on a Wednesday night and there were only three other tables that were occupied. At 6:15 all the tables are filled. The restaurant is very clean. The floors, the food, the tables, the chairs. I am very impressed. My husband and I ordered a half chicken salad to share and we also split the chicken Alfredo. The Chicken salad was large. I found it hard to believe it was only a half portion. The salad came with a very large portion of shredded torn, hot chicken. The lettuce was Romaine and it had diced tomatoes with shredded cheese slices of cucumbers, large slices of red onion, and croutons. It was supposed to come with a sliced egg, but there was none on the salad. The chicken Alfredo was a very large portion. There was more chicken on the salad then in the chicken Alfredo. The Alfredo sauce tasted smoky. I swear there was a half a pound of pasta in that dish. Like all the other portions of food it is very large. They serve fresh bread with butter to the table. The bread is delicious. The waiter said they make it here. We were offered dessert but we chose you to decline. They have a display case of three different kinds of pies, bars, chocolate cake, cheesecake, and more. My only complaint is that the booths are so far from the table. I had to eat at the end of my bench. But I love that the backs of the booths are so very tall. You can't see your neighbor behind you. I was finished eating and pushed my plate away. My husband was still eating his food. The waiter came up to see if we needed anything else. As we were talking to him, an older woman came by interrupted our conversation with the waiter and started to take all of our plates. My husband was not finished eating, but since she piled the plates on top of each other, we were now done. Perhaps in the future, she should ask if we are finished before removing them from the table. The staff is friendly. The food is ginormous and delicious. This is definitely a place if I were passing through I would stop and eat again. I give this restaurant 4.7 stars.

Stopping over in Hines on our west coast trip, we needed a dinner place. All recommendations…read morepointed to The Pine Room. It was busy when we got there so we had a bit of a wait. We were seated and it was indicated that it might take our server a little bit to get to us. Honestly, we didn't wait any longer than a typical restaurant that wasn't busy. All good. With its supper club vibe, the entrees include a shrimp cocktail, soup or salad, bread, and choice of potatoes. They do not scrimp on portions. Even my wine choice was a healthy pour. The room was decorated with lots hangings that felt homey and welcoming. I chose the pork chop as my entree. It was served nice and hot and cooked perfectly. It was a thicker, bone in cut, served with cinnamon apples on top. Very good. Salad was huge, shrimp cocktail was served in a small stemmed dish with a dollop of cocktail sauce on top. Garlic mashed potatoes were buttery and creamy. Our server was great. We enjoyed this stop.
