As a lifelong restaurant industry person and being from up north, it's hard to wow me w anything…read moregood food wise in Central Fla. I was so excited to find this non chain restaurant. The ambience is amazing. Quaint. The food was exceptional. THE ALFREDO was a true Alfredo and not some cheesy mess. The chicken Marsala was fantastic (served w fried potato cubes!) and the salads were beautiful! I wanted to try everything on the menu because every dish sounded amazing. The burrata app w prosciutto and pesto and olives!? Don't miss it! It's fantastic. I regret not getting our servers name. As a business owner, that's the kind of server I'd keep forever. Beautiful younger girl w very dark long hair. Even after we ordered she explained exactly what was in each thing (including salad) to make sure we would be ok w everything. I've never had such a thorough experience. We will be back!

I had a horrible experience here, and it wasn't just the food…read more The women's restroom had a missing door handle so it was held open by a door stop. It must have slipped because the door shut and I was stuck in the restroom for 30 minutes. I had to bang on the doors and call for help and because the restroom was in the lobby of the motel (with no one at the front desk) it took a while for someone to hear me. What terrifies me is that I could have been in here during after hours and no one would have heard me until the next day. Once the repairman helped me get out I told one of the waiters about what happened and brought to their attention that this could have been a really dangerous situation. They said they'd do something to fix it, and then they just left it at that. When they gave me the bill they still charged me full price for everything after that stressful event. I asked if they would honor any discount and they only made the two beers and calamari appetizer free, so in the end I only ended up having to pay for two spaghettis ($40 total), which we ended up not finishing because it tasted horrible. The 4.6 star rating it currently has is very deceiving. Stay away!

We ordered the mushroom salsiccia pasta and the tuna tartare. Both of them had certain tastes that were more pronounced than they should've been.

As we were looking over the menu, fireworks started outside. We all went out to watch a bit. For appetizers we ordered 3-4 meatball plates, and 3-4 salads. They were both really good. The salad was so tasty! For dinner I ordered the Flounder piccata. A lot of people ordered the special, the pork saltimbocca. One gentleman, who is vegetarian, ordered the mushroom steak. Everything was delicious! No one had any complaints, or any leftovers! For dessert we ordered a couple of pavlovas and a couple of the pistachio cannolis. They were very good! The restaurant is worthy of the Michelin rating. This isn't the first time I've eaten here, and it won't be the last.

Excellent service for a to-go place. It only took 15-20 minutes for my pizza to be ready, even when they were super busy. The kind employee brought my pizzas to me as I waited in my car, both times I went. This restaurant is carry-out only, as the only place to sit is on a bench outside. I took my pie to a local park.

This is my second time ordering from Bella, although it's been a few years since my first visit…read more Funny enough, I ended up ordering the same thing again, their medium Shrimp & Garlic pizza. The first time, I also tried the Japanese Firecracker wings and the Honey wings. From what I remember, they were both excellent. I didn't see the Firecracker wings on the menu this time, so I went with the BBQ instead. While I still prefer the Firecracker and Honey flavors, the BBQ wings were good too. I especially like that Bella's wings are crispy, with the sauce serving as the perfect finishing touch. I dislike baked wings that are soft and soggy. Their pizza is simply sublime. It reminds me of a classic New York style pizza, with a crust that's crisp on the outside tender on the inside. I've never actually dined inside the restaurant, so I can't comment on the atmosphere, but I can certainly speak to their customer service. I ordered through Uber Eats and didn't see an option to add anchovies on the side. Bella's staff took the extra step to fulfill my request anyway and billed me accordingly. That kind of attention to detail goes a long way. Congratulations Bella Roma on 26 years!

Santa Mozzarella Pizza

Delicious hole-in-the-wall! I was working nearby and wanted to try a new-to-me restaurant and Santa…read moreMozzarella was calling my name. For pizza, the server recommended the Santa Pepperoni as their most popular pizza. The crust was crispy, thin to medium thickness with a bit of char on the edges, just how I like it. The server recommended a medium for 2 adults to share but we ordered a large so we could have leftovers for dinner (we were full after 2 slices each and had half to take home). For an appetizer, the server said the burrata plate is their most popular, but due to our mood we ordered the truffle fries which were quite hearty as if they were cut and twice fried in house. In general, truffle oil can linger on the tastebuds but that is not the case here, the fries were perfectly salty with a mild truffle flavor that did not interfere with other foods. I can see myself never ordering the same thing twice as there are many menu options. I look forward to returning! Santa Mozzarella is located in a Winn Dixie shopping plaza with plentiful shared parking. There is indoor seating only and seating is limited as this establishment is quite small. We dined on a busy Sunday afternoon and somehow no customers were left waiting. The timing all worked out as people were ending their meal as new guests arrived. The staff were all very kind and efficient and we saw a variety of entrees being served that all looked amazing. This is a restaurant I look forward to returning to.

Here's your review:…read more --- St. Cloud finally has an incredible Italian spot to call its own. Santa Mozzarella took over an old pizza shop and transformed it into something classy and quaint, perfect for an intimate date night or a great spot to bring the whole family for a really good meal. I have been here about three times in the last few months and every visit gets better. The meatballs are by far my favorite. Made with veal, ground beef and sausage and topped with ricotta, they are the softest, most delicious meatballs I have ever had. The beef arancini is also one of the best I have tried anywhere. I have also had the fettuccine Alfredo and the penne alla vodka, both incredibly flavorful. Service has been amazing every time. Our server Hannah was attentive and full of joy, the kind of service that makes the whole experience even better. Now let's talk pizza because IT IS the best in town. The Santa Pepperoni is incredible, loaded with crispy pepperoni cups, fresh mozzarella, basil and a drizzle of hot honey on top. The Meat Lovers is also fantastic with sausage, pepperoni, ham and steak. I genuinely do not want any other pizza in my life after trying these. Santa Mozzarella has a loyal customer in me and I cannot wait to keep coming back.

I'm really funny about food. I'd rather it be pipping hot and burn my mouth than be room temperature. We asked for them to be reheated. They slapped some more garlic butter on them, it was pooled in the divots of the garlic knots and I'm not sure how they reheated them, but they weren't piping hot. They were warm. I didn't eat them, I brought them home, but I doubt I'll eat them. My husband and I both got slices. Now these were so hot you couldn't touch them. The disparity tonight was crazy. I tried the bianco pizza and it was really good. Our waitress was sweet and kept our drinks refilled. They were dead tonight we were the only patrons eating in the restaurant so there is really no excuse for the slider miss-hap. I also found it curious that everyone who came in to pick up their orders was made to wait. It was a completely different staff than the previous Sunday as well. I'll definitely give them another shot, but I would have been embarrassed if we took friends or family tonight.
