Olivia’s energy make the food, the experience, the vibe worth a million next visit. Thanks Olivia for being so kind and absolutely enjoyed the meal recommendations. It must be tiring, but I can see you’re giving it your all and that definitely made this restaurant my top choice from now on. Hope you enjoy your weekend like you made ours ;) !

Went here tonight (Saturday) and the manager was abrupt and arrogant when he told us our reserved table was taken as it was needed.my 3 Yr old granddaughter was about to throw a wobbler and we asked if we could reserve a certain table until we coaxed her out of it.. the you lad at front obliged and was very helpful..less than 10 minutes later (he reserved it for 20)... we came back cool calm and collected ..then was told we couldn't have it..but it was the way the manager told us. We did get a table at the back which was fine but it was his management skills that was very poor. All the other staff were brilliant.. manager letting the side down massively.. must do better...!

I attended on 3/11 with my family. We informed the staff right at the start of my kids allergies of dairy and fish. We had ordered the two year old a smaller kids menu with a plain cheese and tomato pizza. For the 7 year old who had a dairy allergy we were told that he could have a pepperoni pizza with dairy free cheese. Food started to arrive and my nephew was presented with a older child cheese and tomato pizza, we immediately stated that my nephew couldn’t have this and it took the chefs what appeared a long time to prepare a dairy free pepperoni pizza whilst the adults were eating their meals. I ordered a spaghetti bolognaise (one of my favourite) when it arrived the sauce was watery and it tasted very bland! I had to season it with some salt to actually eat it! The prizes as well do not reflect the quality of the food and or service experienced. Needless to say my family come back!

Had the meatball starter and then the classic chicken Milanese. Delicious. Added to that the staff are very polite. Would definitely recommend

We were taken to a table straight away & the order taken relatively quickly. The food came & the quality & taste was excellent. We had to have desserts too which were also very yummy. Paid the bill easy after downloading the app & a perk of £10 off the meal which was very nice thank you. Really enjoyed it & will be back to Bella Italia nearer home as we were visiting to Newcastle at this time. We were highly satisfied with our experience on this visit. Highly recommend this restaurant.

Students be careful, false advertising on the door. Went on a Tuesday, got set Menu and was told at the end the student discount does not apply. Nothing on the sign at the door. Even said ‘it doesn’t say that on your sign’ and waiter lied and told me it did, as you can see on picture nothing there!! Not a ‘*’ in sight

The ambiance of the restaurant was charming and inviting, providing the perfect backdrop for an unforgettable dining experience. Whether you're celebrating a special occasion or simply craving authentic Italian cuisine, Bella Italia is sure to exceed your expectations. I can't wait to return and indulge in more culinary delights served with such exemplary service. Highly recommended!

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Bella Italia, and I must say, it was an unforgettable experience! The moment we stepped in, the staff greeted us warmly and made sure we were comfortable right away. The pizza was absolutely phenomenal. The crust was perfectly crisp on the outside yet soft and airy inside, topped with rich, flavorful sauce and an abundance of fresh, high-quality ingredients. Whether you’re a fan of classic Margherita or love loaded toppings, Bella Italia has something for everyone. Every bite was a delight! What truly set the experience apart was the service. The staff was incredibly friendly, attentive, and quick to respond to any requests. Despite the bustling atmosphere, they made us feel like a priority, ensuring that everything was to our satisfaction. If you’re looking for amazing pizza and impeccable service, Bella Italia is the place to go. I can’t wait to return for another fantastic meal! This should capture the essence of a great experience at Bella Italia!

Experience was okay, no reservation on the Saturday and was told to come back in 20 minutes which was fine. After we got seated, service per normal with the exception of relatively slow service, eventually after sitting round waiting aimlessly for dessert we decided to scrap dessert and just get the bill. Food was fine, service was maybe slightly below expectations for this chain but overall, okay. 3/5

Food was rank. Very overpriced for small portions off food Partner had bolognaise was just fully liquidated at the bottom of the bowl and had no taste I had carbonara bacon was fatty and didn't look like it was cooked properly Dessert was cookie dough it was too overcooked and dry. Wasn't dough at all. Prices if drinks were also disgusting you can go to asda and get a cheaper meal and make at home that's better and half the price. Only thing that was half decent was the staff at the present day.

Went for a Friday lunch time our server was prompt and attentive, we weren't waiting around for food or drinks. Our food selection was from the set menu with a side of Bolognese loaded chips from the regular menu. My mozzarella sticks came with a surprise choice of dip, chilli jam, which paired very well. Sweet but with a kick works very well together. Main was the carbonara they accommodated my request with not adding the extra meat within the dish no problem. The mains came out hot the chips, a new addition to the menu, were loaded with stringy cheese and sauce plus they were still crispy and not soggy. We will definitely get these again. The spaghetti also arrived hot, one of our regular orders from here. It came out spot on, with the offer to add extra cheese or black pepper. The dessert was the brownie drizzled in chocolate and butterscotch sauce. Served warm, just enough to melt the creamy ice-cream on top. It was rich but not over the top. Overall, a fantastic visit and we will be back soon!

Bella Italia in Newcastle Eldon Square was an utter disaster. We sat for 40 minutes with three hungry children, only to find out they never placed our order. The staff were oblivious and not particularly apologetic, leaving us waiting aimlessly. The food was below average and overall not value for money, despite the kids eat for £1 deal. Avoid this place if you value your time and sanity.

We dined both in the restaurant and at home (takeaway) and loved the dining experience but found the takeaway not worth the money. The pasta was like anything you could cook at home and the cookie dough was not cookie dough but just a bad cookie that was very dry and hard. It’s a shame because we really enjoyed the food when we ate there so we were excited to have it delivered on a Saturday night! The lasagne though was perfect both at home and in the restaurant - I would highly recommend the lasagne, garlic bread and caprese salad for a takeaway as those items didn’t leave us disappointed, but the pasta and the doughballs along with the cookie dough weren’t as nice.

Have been coming here on/off for months. The food is really good. There is however, often a long wait for it, partly due to things being cooked to order and possibly because there's only one member of staff taking orders and managing the bar. Fine if there's one or two tables in, but not if it gets busier. Not sure if the staff/client ratio changes later in the evening as always go early.

Shabba saves this place. We’ve been when he’s not in and it is a disaster! We had red wine in champagne glasses, decaf coffee with no coffee…. Mugs of hot milk. Tonight he’s in and it’s fab again. Impeccable customer service and we got what we wanted (even if you’ve taken calabrese off the menu for no explicable reason). Seriously why is there no way to tip an individual or send messages to management about how good a staff member is because I’m not joking. He is why we go back!

Great Italian. We went Sunday evening and we had two friendly and attentive staff members. We had bruschetta, potato skins and olives (starter); and pizza, meatballs and arrabiatta and vegetable lasagne. It was all fab and a bottle of Valpolicello Ripasso complemented the food. Highly recommended and not far from Crowne Plaza where we were staying.
