    Chicken Parmigiana with home made spaghetti.
    Teresa C.

    Delicious food served with a smile. Very pleasant ambiance. It was softly lit for Christmas and the music was perfect. I will definitely dine here again. Thank you Bella for a great evening.

    Lobster ravioli and cheese bread
    D.C. R.

    This is the second time I've had the pleasure of eating at Bella's. The restaurant was decorated beautifully for the holidays. I had stuffed mushrooms for an appetizer. I had the lobster ravioli as an entrée. The food was amazingly delicious!!! I also had a strawberry margarita that was very good. The service we received was top tier. We will definitely be back soon!!!

    Thursday night ambience
    Valerie H.

    Still the best Italian food around, only great things to say about this restaurant. I came to update my review because now on Thursdays they actually have a guy who comes in and sings rat pack era music. He does a great job at providing ambience without being intrusive.

    For the discriminating Italian food aficionado who knows what authentic Italian cuisine tastes like, this is the best place in the Metro KC area to find it. As the daughter of a first generation Sicilian mother, I can say unequivocally that this the closest thing to my Mother's and Nonna's cooking that I have found in the greater KC area. Everything from the homemade knot rolls to the decadently delicious limoncello cake, to their tomato basil salad dressing, and their delicious marinara sauce, it will make your tongue do the Snoopy happy dance! Great food, great people who make you feel like family, and an ambiance that takes me back to the neighborhood restaurants I frequented in my trips to Roma. Highly recommend you give it a try.

    Bella's! I didn't even know it existed. I require gluten free pasta. That's my biggest worry when I eat at Italian restaurants. Well no worries there! They had gluten free pasta available on almost every entree. I ordered shrimp scampi pasta and triamisu. I also got a salad and garlic bread. We had numerous appetizers. I loved all of it. I can't think of my favorite appetizer cause it was all so good. Service was impeccable. I enjoyed every bit of Bella's and it's a place I'd take out of town guests.

Everyone we interacted with was friendly, attentive, and genuinely trying to make the experience great. Unfortunately, the food just didn't live up to the setting. The bread arrived looking and tasting like floppy, wonder-bread-style slices, which immediately set the tone. It felt like very little effort was put into something that should be simple but memorable at an Italian restaurant. The dishes that followed were presented nicely but lacked depth and authentic Italian flavor. Nothing was awful, but everything was underwhelming -- more "fine" than enjoyable, and certainly not what you'd hope for given the atmosphere. My husband and I truly wanted to love this place because the space and the staff are wonderful, but the food needs improvement to match the rest of the experience. I hope they make some adjustments, because the potential is absolutely there.

The service is incredible as well, as our server was constantly asking us how everything was and tasted. You could really tell that they care about putting out great quality food. The restaurant/bar is a nice cozy place, remind you we went on a Monday afternoon and there was hardly anyone there but we were digging all the paintings about the restaurant and food they had. I really digged the Dinosaur eating pizza painting, I kinda wish you could buy it, my kiddo would love it in his room. And when you order YOU HAVE TO TRY THE BROWN BUTTER CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES!!! Another guest there recommended we try them and that they're "life changing" and he wasn't wrong so glad we did! They're perfectly cooked, balanced sweet and salty, and has top notch chocolate in them! It's crazy because this pizza place makes better cookies than MOST OF the bakeries I've ever been too. MOST DEFINITELY WILL BE BACK p.s. my 6 month old daughter had some of the pizza sauce, and cheese off the pizza and from the salad and she APPROVES

    Honestly I wanted to like this place, and I'm bummed it didn't really measure up…read more I will go back and try another couple of pies before I dismiss it all together. The service was fantastic. I didn't catch her name but our waitress was kind, and knowledgeable. She explained that everything is made in house, and I love that. There wasn't anything wrong with my pizza, it just was unbalanced. Hence why I'd like to come back and try a couple different options. It was loud as all get out in there, which is to be expected on a Saturday night. Not bothersome, but if you want conversation this is not the place! I'll be back, to give it another go. :)

    So glad we tried this place! Being from Florida and going to a seafood place in a landlocked state…read moreis not usually something I do. We sat at the bar, and the bartender was amazing, full of helpful info about the menu. He told us how the seafood comes in fresh. He recommended oysters to us, and since it was our first time, he threw in a couple of his favorites at no charge. It was also happy hour, and we took advantage of the specials, ordering the cheddar biscuits drizzled with honey and the colossal cocktail shrimp. They really were huge and delicious. We also enjoyed half-price oysters. My husband loved the crushed cocktails We split the mahi-mahi, and we loved how he told us about the fresh fish that had never been frozen and whether it was wild or farm-raised. The mahi was incredible. You could tell it was fresh. We enjoyed the potatoes and the BéreBlanc sauce. This is going to be a place that we will end up becoming regulars at. So happy to have tried it!

    This review is for the experience my sister and I had on Saturday, February 14th. ^_^…read more My sis treated me to an amazing meal for my first Galentine's Day and Pearl Tavern blew my mind!! I know I'm a bit behind on my reviews again, but posting now other than later is still fine. lol.. I'm doing my best to keep up with what life is throwing at me. That being awkwardly included and all, sis and I dined on some of the best food I've had in a while. We shared smoked oysters topped with bread crumps and parmesan, a super spicy and flavorful salsa-type appetizer with habanero that came with surprisingly flavorful chips lol, we shared some crab cakes, a beautiful aquatic-toned alcoholic drink, and shared one of the best trout dishes I have ever had in my entire human life! 0__0 The rainbow trout was our favorite part of that entire experience, which was tough to decide on honestly.. My 2nd best thing were those oysters! Our waiter was so kind and entertaining, and I really hope we get him the next time I visit! If I remember correctly, his name was Tristin. Thankfully due to how early we were there that day, the restaurant wasn't super packed, so we had plenty of breathing air for most of our visit. During the last 15 minutes it began filling up! This review is a mess you guys, but it's still an absolute satisfied one!

When my boyfriend asked if we could sit near the bar, where there were plenty of available tables, the host didn't even look at us and simply said, "Help yourself." I'm not sure why we were treated that way. When the food arrived, my boyfriend's burger was completely different from what he ordered. He ordered a BBQ burger with extra crispy bacon, but it came with no sauce and no bacon at all. My burger was very dry, and the fries were overcooked. I do like crispy fries, but these were far beyond that. I assume the food issues were a kitchen mistake. On a positive note, the ambiance was nice, and our server was kind and attentive. She checked on us more than three times. My boyfriend is so kind and he didn't want to send the burger back.
