Swung through here to meet a friend for a drink and a nosh. It was a Sunday evening and the weather was perfect. I was so happy that we got a table outside. We ordered a bottle of wine, meatballs and garlic knots. If you see my pictures, you'll see that I almost forgot that the phone eats first! The meatball was very good and I ordered the garlic knots to soak up the rest of the sauce...and also the wine I was drinking. Even though we were outside, we were never forgotten. We had great service and such a good time hanging out there that we closed the place down. Would like to go back and try some of their entrees next time. read more

I ordered a vegan pizzas which is very simple, just red sauce, mushrooms, artichokes, and black olives. And I repeated to the server in 2 separate occasions that I wanted to make sure it was vegan, just no cheese. When the food gets here there is cheese on the pizza. It's extremely frustrating because the reason I don't order cheese, is not because I don't like the flavor, it's because I don't want to support an industry that exploits pregnant ensavled cows. So making a pizza with cheese on it, it defeats the whole purpose. Also the server forgot a few items from the table, horrible experience. read more

Terrible experience. Poor service. Over priced. Ordered four ounce pasta and it was barely 2 ounces. Sauce had water that you could see. Told the waiter but didn't care. Stay away from this place read more

We went for Valentine's Day and the vibes were nice with ambient lighting. However, even with our reservations we were placed in the back corner of the restaurant and were forced to sit side by side and face the sax player who was like 2 feet from our table. We are giving them some grace because of the holiday but the service was slow and they messed up my order and then just tossed some pesto on the dish to fix it. The food was not super flavorful either. The wine was great though and happy hour was a plus. read more

We decided to try La Bella Luna on a Monday night. We got there just after 6pm. It wasn't busy yet. Only 1 other couple. It had night dim lighting and Italian decor. The server seated us in a very comfy booth. After ordering drinks my friend had to return his Diet Coke because it tasted terrible for a Sprite. I got Chicken Parmesan which was ok. It was hard to cut and the noodles were a little dry. My friend got the Paella Risotto and loved it. We ordered chocolate cake and gelato for dessert. The gelato was very good. The service was ok. We did have to wave down our waitress for more drinks etc. we didn't try the pizza but saw other people receive it and it looked very good. read more

I went to La Bella Luna for the first time on a date night with my husband, and we had a lovely experience. It is a cute little Italian restaurant located on New Broad Street. We had a reservation for Friday night, which I definitely recommend because the place started filling up pretty quickly. We started off with the Mozzarella in Carrozza as an appetizer. For our main dishes, we had the Pappardelle Bolognese and the Spaghetti Pomodoro. You really can't go wrong with a classic meat sauce. It wasn't the best I've ever had, but it was still tasty and we both enjoyed our meals. For dessert, we shared the tiramisu, and that was a definite win. The staff was super attentive and made us feel right at home. I also noticed they have a to-go window, and a few people stopped by to grab pizzas, which is good to know if you're looking for something quick. If you're in the area and craving some classic Italian comfort food, La Bella Luna is a good choice. read more

After visiting the first Friday event, we stopped in for some dinner. The restaurant was not very busy and we were able to be seated at a table inside. We started with the bruschetta, which was tasty. I especially liked the flavor of the bread that was used. For entrees, we split the pepperoni pizza and the chicken parmigiana. The pizza had lots of cheese and the baby pepperonis, which are my favorite. The chicken parmigiana had a flavorful breading and a decent portion of food.the red sauce had a great taste. There were 2 reasons for the 3 star review. While the food was delicious, it was overshadowed by the lack of service. There were extreme long waits between getting menus, ordering, receiving food, and trying to ask for the check and to-go boxes. We asked 3x to different servers before receiving boxes. Also the sodas were very flat and next to no carbonation in them. read more

If I could give it a zero star I would. DO NOT EAT! I was up from 4 AM to 6 AM throwing up nonstop. The next night i was up from 4AM to 6AM diarrhea & with severe stomach pain (sharp stabbing sensation). This all happened after eating their chicken parm. They are lucky I don't file an investigation report. DO NOT EAT. STAY AWAY. read more

La Bella Luna is a pleasant and quiet Italian restaurant (at least for 1 PM on a Sunday) on the Baldwin Park strip, hosting a variety of delicious pasta options and a sweet atmosphere that makes it perfect for a date night. Our server Andres was exceptional and offered insight into menu offerings, as well as making sure that everything was just right for our lunch. We could tell the restaurant was clean on initial entry, and the staff were kind across the board. Dining room was also clean and has beautiful lighting. Perfect music choice making it easy to have a conversation. Though we didn't order any drinks other than water, their menu has plenty of offerings that can be paired nicely with your chosen dish. The Mozzerella In Carroza was delicious, perfectly fried and easily shareable for two (3 pcs.). My wife ordered the Canneloni Con Fico & Spinache off the specials menu, whereas I ordered the Penne Allá Vodka (Lunch portion). At first we were worried that the portions looked small, but they were so hearty and rich that we felt full after finishing our respective dishes. The figs were a nice sweet addition to the spinach and cream sauce of the Canneloni. The Penne Allá Vodka was creamy and prepared me nicely for an afternoon nap. Tiramisu rounded out our meal, perfect delectable and light dessert offering. For pricing, you will be looking at around 30-50 a person (20-30 dollars entree, 10-20 drink offering, not including appetizer and dessert). Lunch portions are slightly smaller than dinner, but still will fill you up! read more

Loved this place, I went for a date night with my lady and although they were about to close they still took care of us. Went for the pastas and they were great, I would read the ingredients though because I don't eat pork and some pastas include pork just with a different name. All in all great food and will definitely be back read more

We have frequently enjoyed dining in or taking out from Bella Luna. I don't want to take that history away from them. But our most recent take out will probably be our last encounter. I ordered a pizza online and my husband (returning home from out of town) was going to pick it up. There was some confusion about what I 'thought' I ordered and what was made. No problem; THAT is not the primary issue in this short story. When I opened it up at home, it had a puddle of water in the middle of the 18"', from all the mushrooms primarily in the center of the pie. As I padded it dry and tried to replace cheese on the rest of the pie ( drawn to the middle because of the water), my husband called to speak with the manager, expecting nothing but knowing certainly the manager would want to know for quality control. The manager wasn't available to speak and texted the next morning. His responses prioritized the order mix up, without addressing our real issue nor taking responsibility. My husband just left it alone at the point; why continue? I assure you if we'd been dining there, the manager would have probably made time for us and possibly (?) replaced our drainage ditch of a pizza. What's left in the photo is what's left of what we tried and tossed. Please Bella Luna, the next time pay attention, don't be obtuse, listen to the customer and take some responsibility. Wishing you well moving forward. read more

La Bella Luna - Lots of mushrooms! - Pizza Near Me - Orlando, Florida

Impromptu decision to 'pop in' and was pleasantly surprised. The interior really has two atmospheres: pizza parlor to the right and fine dining restaurant to the left (mood lighting and all). Service was absolutely top notch. Andres was our server and he was fantastic: frequently came to check on us without being overbearing and played with my granddaughter (1 year 4 months). He made sure we wanted for nothing and tried to anticipate our needs. We started with the perfectly seasoned fried mozzarella appetizer, which came in oval shapes patties, with marinara dipping sauce. Crunchiest on the outside and super gooey on the inside. Loved it! Ordered meatball appetizers and did not like them. Was gonna take off a star But when Andres found out I didn't like them (kinda mushy and liquid soaked and not really tasting like ground meat), he offered to bring another appetizer (I opted for another order of mozzarella) soooooo they earned back that one star! The chicken parm was a super generous portion which fed two people. Sauce was delectable and chicken was tender white meat well cooked and seasoned. The Pomodoro was magnificent. I originally intended to only eat half (trying to cut down on starch and really should not have chosen an Italian restaurant) but it was sooooooo good that I couldn't resist and stuffed myself with the entire dish. It had the best sauce with tender strips of grilled chicken breast with what tasted like homemade spaghetti (but I doubt if it was). Nothing was overly salty and that was up high on my list. Only coke products (no ginger ale) and a decent wine list (no true bar so no real 'cocktails'. Cannoli was top notch and not overly sweet! Yay. Would I return? A definite yes. read more

I ordered linguine and clam sauce and it was the worst I ever tasted. There was no garlic or butter and just a few flakes of basil. There were only about 10 whole clams and lots of empty shells. This restaurant is awful and the $22 price for a small tasteless serving of linguine was a total ripoff. read more

La Bella Luna - Tasteless linguine - Pizza Near Me - Orlando, Florida

Denny's, but Italian. 5 minutes to see a server. Capresse tomatoes were a week shy of ripe. Had to walk up to the hostess stand for pepper. Cioppino was a big bowl of tomato sauce with a little bit of seafood. A few small previously frozen shrimp, some previously frozen mussels, there were clam shells, not sure there were any clams, and about half an appetizer of calamari rings.....for $38. Throw in some rap music from the kitchen and this place is THE best in Baldwin Park, if the gas station is closed. read more

This is one my go-to spots in Baldwin Park! I love coming here for a consistently nice pasta meal. The outdoor seating right on New Broad Street gives you a great view of Baldwin Park's charming downtown area. Firstly, the rolls! They are always warm with just a little garlic - they come with balsamic and olive oil for dipping, and I inhale a few each time I'm here. The bruschetta and caprese are both nice and light appetizer choices, and the meatballs are hot and fresh as well. One of my all-time favorite pasta dishes is here! It's a simple fettuccine aglio e olio - olive oil with lots of garlic and red pepper flakes. So simple but light and delicious! I added chicken on this particular visit, but you can also add shrimp. I've also enjoyed the salmon and pizzas here! Overall, definitely a great sit-down choice in the Baldwin Park area. read more

One of my favorite Italian Restaurants! I have been there 3 times! And all of them it was amazing! Once I sat outside and I arrived it was still daytime, and then it became night! It was beautiful and the day was chill, not very hot. Me and my friend stayed there for hours! Such a nice vibe! The other times it was pretty hot so I decided to sit inside! Also very comfortable and nice! The food is amazing! Everything that I order, all the times were great! There is no mistake over there! Pasta, pizza, the dessert, the salad! There is free parking on the road, and near. read more

A group of us came here recently to celebrate my boyfriend's birthday. Italian food is pretty much his favorite thing (I can't argue there!) and we had never been here so we were excited to try a new to us spot. I had been trying to make reservations online without success (the eform didn't seem to work properly on mobile) and when I called I wasn't able to reach someone so we just took a gamble and hoped for the best. Fortunately the restaurant wasn't packed and we were seated pretty quickly. Our server was friendly and gave us the regular menu as well as the specials. Since it was my first time here, I went with my usual favorite, chicken parmigiana. My boyfriend chose ravioli. Others in our group chose chicken parm also along with chicken marsala and carbonara. There was complimentary bread for the table which is always nice. The wait for the meals was a little long, but we were a party of six so it's understandable. All of the food looked amazing when it arrived and fortunately tasted great as well. I enjoyed my chicken parm; the sauce was tasty and the chicken was tender. Everything tasted fresh and yummy. If you love topping your meals with Parmesan, just ask for a little extra because our Parmesan loving group needed more than what was brought initially haha. Overall, this restaurant has a nice ambience and is a good spot to satisfy your Italian food cravings! read more

Unfortunately, this last time was THE last time we will be visiting Bella Luna in Baldwin Park. We used to be regulars until about a year ago when we suspected a seafood dish left me and my daughter sick. We decided to give it one more try in a Sunday afternoon for lunch and it was terrible. I was twice served soapy tasting iced tea. It seems they cleaned the container and didn't rinse it properly. I let our server know and the manager brought me another glass - just as soapy tasting as the first. (Like Mistolin - if you're familiar with that floral cleaner). I ordered the tricolor salad ($13) with salmon ($10). It came with a double portion of salmon. But it was dry. The salad underneath was perfect. The last straw - we could not order a single slice of pizza so we had to order a $19 pepperoni pizza for my daughter - but the dough was raw. I did not notice this until my daughter ate her first slice. I ate her crust and went for some more - then realized I'd better not as it might make me sick. They removed the pizza from my bill. We will not be returning. read more

"La Bella Luna e il mangiare cattivo"... an Italian sentence that translates to "the beautiful moon and the act of eating bad food". An interesting contrast, if you asked me, does not exactly apply but it could be assigned to my experience at La Bella Luna. I got a cheese pizza that was pretty good, although very basic and with a dough that may tire you, and I got a veggie calzone, which unfortunately was not seasoned right so I got bland veggies wrapped in cheese and bread. Now, I must say that a good calzone is hard to find, it doesn't matter the city where you are located (except Italy of course). Also, I did not try anything else, maybe I will, maybe I won't. But the point is that the pizza was not 4 stars, and the calzone was 2 stars. Also, no garlic knots on the menu, are you kidding me? I like La Bella Luna's proximity to the brewery in Baldwin, it's almost Tactical for me: grab a beer, grab a pizza pie. I like their menu and inventiveness also, but I must say that it may be a fluke. I may give it one more try. I am saving YOU the rant about how many places in Orlando do not season their food... read more

Pizza is great but when I went to pick up the pizza, I asked for s side of sauce. The fuel went to the register and said, we have to charge you. I said forget it. Really, a 1oz thing of sauce.

The service was great when we went last Friday, it was quick and the girl was super nice to us and our dog. The food was very yummy s bread generic but very nice to have a complimentary item. We got the salad with mix greens and the scallop as apps. The scallops were well cooked we wish they had a harder sear on them but they were cooked really nice. The sauce was okay. The salad was a bit dry and lacked cucumbers tomatoes and olives..it was a bit poor to be honest but yummy flavor. I had the lamb with roasted potatoes which I enjoyed quite a bit although some of my potatoes were a bit hard and it overall needed salt. The sauce was so yummy and lamb perfectly a medium. My bf got the pasta and it was a bit over cooked for him since he likes Al dente. Other than that the dinner was lovely ! read more

NOT AN AUTHENTIC ITALIAN restaurant. I asked for my bucatini to be made al dente, but the waitress had no idea what it meant and never heard the term. So I asked to make the pasta firm, NOT soft. She noted it. When I got my dish the bucatini was soft like for a toothless child. I didn't send it back because we were in a group and I didn't think they can do any better. Not coming back. If you like a good plate of Italian pasta look elsewhere. read more

"I'm done with this place" in despair was the exact quote of a member in my party as we left. We were a group of four. The place is cute and the aesthetic is nice. We ordered an appetizer of calamari that was very overcooked and rubbery along with the bread service which is supposedly garlic bread, must've been the spirit of garlic or something because none of us could find the flavor at all. Some of us also ordered wine and were never visited to be offered a refill. On a similar note, the service was very slow and our waitress nearly never came by other than to bring the food. There were only two other groups in the place at the time, so I'm not sure why service was so slow and inattentive. The meals were okay. I got a salad which came out ten minutes after everyone else's hit dishes for some reason. And nobody was happy with the experience at all. We all left disappointed and tired from this experience. read more

CARB LOADDDDD! Cue the garlic bread! What did I get I got the Chicken Carbonara. The plate was huge! It also comes with either a salad or soup. I got the caesar salad which I thought was eh, I didn't like the dressing, it didn't taste like caesar salad dressing. The grilled chicken was a bit dry to me. They bring garlic bread as starters. The garlic bread was bigger pieces and nicely made. I didn't really like it cause it had a lot of oil and it also tasted a little dry and not soft. It was warm though. Environment This was in Baldwin Park along with a lot of other restaurants. The interior was quite nice. Great place for dates or more of a quite environment. Niceness of the staff The staff was very nice. They made sure to keep checking on me to make sure that I was good. My cup of water was always full and never had to ask Dollar I am not a pasta or italian food person, so personally I think it is expensive. my pasta dish was $19 which I thought was expensive. yes? No I am not a fan. I thought it was overpriced with mediocre taste. read more

Ordered the Margherita Pizza to go and it was not good at all. When I opened the box there was pools of tomato juice all around the pizza and when I went to pick up a slice of pizza everything slid off the slice because of all the juices. Pizza was very soggy.

Food was amazing. Server could communicate better on last call. But the food and staff was generous and friendly.

DO NOT COME HERE!!! This is the last time I will ever give this place money. I have been a customer for years, not due to the quality of the food (which has always been mediocre) but for the convenient location. We hadn't been back for a couple months after having a bad experience, but decided to give it another try today...BIG MISTAKE. Went to pick up my food and was shocked at the bill being $50.59 (which was not told to me when I placed the order on the phone) for fettuccine Alfredo with chicken ($28 for boxed pasta and a couple pieces of inedible stringy chicken??), a "14 inch cheese pizza" which as you can see here barely measures 12 inches, and what used to be complimentary table bread is now $2.50. This place is a SCAM. When I asked why my total looked so expensive compared to previous times, I was told they raised their prices a couple months ago....for no reason....DO NOT COME HERE!!!!! read more

La Bella Luna - Pizza Near Me - Orlando, Florida

Extremely disappointed, first, and last visit for sure. We went there planning to have pizza, but we ended up getting something completely different. We should have left immediately after hearing the server says that "it was going to take at least 40 minutes to have pizza but only 10 minutes to have risotto". I want to believe that she was simply confused because 40 minutes should be the cooking time for risotto and 10 minutes for pizza unless the risotto is pre-cooked, and the pizza's man makes the dough from scratch every order. We did not get any bread and only the kids got a glass of water, the adults none. We never got silverware and napkins (I had to steal them from other tables), and the server never came back to check if we would like to order another drink. The gnocchi tricolore had three diverse types of soggy sauce: alfredo (it was decent) pesto sauce (tasted like it came from a jar) and marinara sauce (not really, it was the pizza tomatoes sauce) The pasta cacio and pepe was flavorless, just overcooked boiled pasta with nothing on it. Cacio and pepe is made with only three ingredients: pecorino Romano cheese, black pepper, and pasta (plus the starchy water from cooking the pasta) so I do not know how they could not get it right. The tortellini with alfredo sauce were decent. I had chicken Bella Luna, and it was good. It has a good mix of flavors, but the portion was very small for a $ 25 chicken dish. Unfortunately, we had to eat what we got because it was 8:30 at night and we were all starving. The service was equally disappointing. If you are looking for a true taste of Italian food avoid this place. read more
