My third visit in the last few months with different people and for different occasions.. food is always fantastic as is the service. Today Ian was waiting on the tables in our area and his service was impeccable. The food we had and his recommendations were flawless and we all had an amazing time.. his attention to the guests dining is clearly important to him and he is constantly over seeing and making sure everyone is looked after. This has been the case on previous visits where I didn’t remember to name someone individually. Thanks we will be back.

Had a brilliant trip to Bella Italia in Exeter, food was delicious, but the meal was made by the fantastic service from Ian, who despite being the only server on the floor took the time to make us great cocktails, chat with us but still keep service fast. He clearly works so hard to make it a great experience for customers.

Did not have any vegan pizza options again, apart from that food was okay, I'm not sure if £88 is expensive for 4 people, I suppose when its £5 for a few fries it soon adds up.

Our favourite pizza delivery outlet had long waiting times, so we decided to give Bella Italia a try. Cooking time and delivery were excellent, and we liked the topping, but the pizza dough, which should have been crisp, was flabby. Very disappointing.

The interactions with the staff were very awkward and a bit rude…. Which was confusing. Waiter spoiled the surprise of the cake i bought for my friend’s birthday.

The £3.50 ‘Fresh orange juice’, is straight out of a carton. Felt very mislead when as I watched the bartender poor my ‘fresh orange juice’ from a carton in the fridge into a small glass and added lots of ice to top it off. Apart from that it is a a standard commercial Italian restaurant, food was good and the prices are inline with competing restaurants.

We asked for and got our usual bay window table (a great place to people watch) in Exeter. My wife had the prawn starter as a main and said that they were very nice and I had meat balls in spaghetti which was piping hot and very tasty. We had the choc sponge as one dessert and doughballs as the other which were delicious...salted caramel can't be bettered. We finished with a complimentary coffee (for me) and lemon shot (for her). Our waitress, George, is a charming young lady who looked after us very well and her lovely smile and cheerful demeanour were much appreciated. The meal is best summed up as "Another excellent lunch in a restaurant we have been to many times before and will continue to do so in the future".
