Have eaten in the restaurant at Cribbs Causeway and had lovely meal. Staff attentive and friendly. Last night we had a deliveroo delivery. Never, ever again. Garlic bread was not the same as that when we ate in. Sadly, all we received on delivery were two small triangles, tasteless, dry and not worth the £5+. Chicken fries ok, although cold. Husband loved his pizza and my pasta dish was probably better than when I ate in (spicier for sure) Lemon cheesecake, tasty but the tirimisu was dry and tasteless. That's the last takeaway on delivery ever again. Not worth the money!

Food was quite good but service very slow although restaurant was nearly empty. After waiting for about 15 minutes we had to ask if we could place an order. We had 2 children with us (aged 9 and 6) who were quite patient. Their starters arrived promptly but after they had finished we had to ask again what had happened to the main course. My wife's spaghetti bolognaise was good - excellent portion. My salad was also good. The children ate all their meals and particularly liked the ice-cream. One problem on the food was that several items were not available which given we were early in the evening did not bod well for those dining later.

Yesterday was my first experience at the Bella Italia restaurant at Cribs in Bristol with my wife after watching a movie at the cinema. What was supposed to be a pleasant dinner was terrible because of the poor quality service, the waiter unprepared rude with low attitude , the food was ok.

The poor waitresses (x2 during lunch) work tirelessly whilst the restaurant is under staffed. This i feel is a management issue which then has a knock on effect for the customer waiting times and experience. Food great but long waiting times (45mins between courses) meant we walked out before desert arrived after settling the bill.

We had ordered two set lunch today. We only had the starters and drinks, then waited for 45 minutes for the main dishes. There are around 8 tables with customers, I don’t why it took so long. Finally, we had to cancel the orders as they said it would take 20-30 min more to ready the pasta.

Would not even rate it a 1 if I'm honest... Tables were empty but had to go away for half an hour and come back. The waitress was rude, infact we overheard the staff slagging us off because we asked if my child could have butter on her pasta as shes autistic and only eats pasta with butter and cheese! They didnt have butter apparently?? Luckily Frankie n Benys nxt door did so to their surprise my daughter got her butter from their neighbours 😁✌️ I as a waitress myself knows about customer service and i would NEVER or acted the way those staff did in there!! They are lucky we even paid!! #RUDE

I had to give 1 star as it wouldn't let me do zero. Went in and before we even sat down a server was asking if we wanted a drink. Ordered food, garlic bread & dough balls for starters. A pizza & risotto for mains. 50, yes 50 minutes later no starters. When I asked what was happening I was told we don't have many chefs so it will be a while. Why couldn't they tell us when we went in? We had cinema tickets and planned 1 & 1/2 hours for food so there was no time to wait any further for the starter as we would never have had the time to eat our main course. So can't review the food as we didn't get any. All I can say is shocking service. They should mention any problam they were having when you enter the restaurant, not leave you for nearly an hour. I tried asking various servers but they all ignored me as they obviously knew what the problem was. Awful

I wouldn't recommend it if you have an hour or less to eat. I'm here semi regularly with a group of just 4, because while it takes a long time, the food is good, but it seems each time the service gets slightly worse again. I've been in twice recently where they said they'd bring cutlery round shortly because it wasn't on the table already, only for them to forget and we have to ask once our food is there. Then there's times they don't ask if we want drinks at all so we're sat waiting for 10 minutes until they come over to take food orders, then we have to additionally ask for drinks before they speed off. The bill takes another 10-15 minutes to come after being asked for, and I'd understand all this if they were packed but only 4-6 tables are being used when I'm in there. Additionally, I wouldn't recommend sitting next to the bar, as the fly situation there is pretty horrendous. Also if they ask if you want any sauces and you say yes, be aware they do charge 65p for it for a tiny pot but they don't mention that it just appears on the bill.

Visited Saturday 1st after doing some shopping. Upon entering, I gave my name and reservation time and one of the waitresses just rolled her eyes and threw our menus onto the table. Luckily, our server was much nicer and the food was amazing. The only downside was that we couldn't order from the 2 course menu as everything was showing out of stock on the ordering site but yet was available to order off the normal menu making it more expensive which was convenient.

We have now been sitting at our table for 45 minutes. When we arrived, the greeter snarled at us that despite all the empty tables, the kitchen was backed up and she couldn't sit us for another 15 minutes. We asked if we could sit at a table while we waited out our 15 minutes. The greeter turned her back to us and told us to follow her. We sat for 30 minutes until we got the attention of a server and asked if we could order. She said she had been instructed by her manager not to take our order until they told her. So now we are sitting here almost an hour and nothing. Treated like we are an inconvenience and an annoyance. If it wasn't for my family all being sat and tired we would have left by now . Pathetic.

The food was okay, but it seemed like the server lost our ticket from our online order. They didn't really seem like they wanted to be there, food arrived cold/out of order because it was forgotten or something, not really sure. Waiter kept saying "It's been a long day" then just sulking off - had to find our own cutlery etc. Tasted okay, which was the only saving grace of today.

Went as a family of four. Service was not great, asked for a glass to come with the beer but it didn't arrive and had to go up to the counter after 30 minutes to ask for it again. Didn't get our order of garlic green beans - we were told that they'd forgot to prepare it, waiters did apologize on their behalf. The meatballs on the bella sharing board were poor, these looked and tasted like microwavable meatballs - at least try and make it less obvious. Mushrooms on the sharing board were ok, chicken fries ok, the flatbread was too salty for some of our tastes but that was ok. We ordered calamari and what we received was basically fried breading, barely had any squid at all in it. A friend ordered the bolognese, which had practically little to no beef mince in it, my mum and I had the gamberoni which was edible but the prawns had little to no taste, likely frozen for a while. We shared fries and sweet potatoes fries, they were fine. I had minor food poisoning that night (could've been any of the foods I listed) with dizziness and, stomach and abdominal pain but nothing compared to my brother who threw up at 2am and woke up with headaches, muscle pain and heavy breathing whilst sharing the same symptoms as me. He had the lasagna and shared our fries, sharing board and calamari so obviously the lasagna was almost a death sentence because he was the only person having lasagna and no one else had such a severe response to the food. A real shame for this particular chain as we had a much better Bella Italia experience elsewhere.

We used to go to Bella Italia very often in the past, we used to like it. However, in our last visit, last week, we didn't think so highly of it. And its not the first time, we also went there about three months ago too and felt the same. Some of the food portions feel smaller than they used to be, including the children's set menu portions. Also, our food was not so nice. The spaghetti on our pasta bolognese was overcooked and looked like it had been broken in two before cooking. Cannelloni was the only portion that looked good and tasted nice!

Came here as a farewell to our visit to our son and for his birthday. Met on entry with the statement whole kitchen team new and on training. Our party ordered vegan meatballs as a starter. Also meatballs and spaghetti for a main. Vegan meatballs came in a sizzling dish and were frozen inside. Sent back. Spaghetti meatballs came cold. Sent back. Returned microwaved to the point of completely inedible. Vegan risotto was undercooked, green liquid in the bottom of the dish and inedible. All food taken off bill. Charged 13.79 for drinks which i find incredulous given the experience.

We visited the restaurant last night. We were looking forward to this meal but we were very disappointed by the end of it. We were greeted nicely and shown to our table and given time to look at the menu before we ate. The lady who took our order was initially very happy to help. Our orders were taken and the first meal came and was very nice (mushroom starter), the second meal was three pizza’s (all vegetarian) - they came but we were not offered any garnish (grated cheese or black pepper) - we asked and the lady returned with this after a minute or two. We ate our meal which was nice enough but we had finished our meal after the normal amount of time. During this time they had started to clean down the restaurant and set up for the next day. Fourty minutes AFTER finishing our meal the lady eventually returned and asked if we wished to order the deserts. We did thinking that they were now down to very few customers that there would not be any issues…no. We saw our deserts placed on to the hot tray for the waitress to collect…they were there for what seemed forever. During that time they carried on cleaning the restaurant and turning off some of the lights. Me and one of my sisters ordered the Brownie which neither had the salted caramel sauce on it. We were beyond waiting for them to return or ask if it was ok…they didn’t. At this point they started playing two different tunes on the speakers.. We went to pay and there were further issues as they stated that they did not accept Tesco Clubcard Vouchers for the meals we had ordered - no where did we see this or get advised this by any member of staff.. Eventually this was sorted by my sister and we left. Very disappointed as this had supposed to be a nice family meal which ended being a situation were we were just left in the restaurant while the staff cleaned, turned off lights and sat in the front waiting for us to leave. Meal was to sit down for 8.15pm..it wasn’t a late setting (it was by the time we left) nor were we not expected as we had reserved seats…very disappointing.
