La Bella in Central Bedfordshire

Went here recently and was not disappointed. Would definitely visit again.

Just been here for the first time for a family meal out with our 2 daughters i couldnt reccomend this enough! Food was so quick and sooooooooo nice it is a bit pricey but well worth it to get such nice food! Plus you get alot for your money and they even made me something that wasnt on the menu i wanted chicken milinese and thought i would ask and was told not a problem so glad i did as the chicken was sooo nice the kids meals were huge as well! Everyone happy and tummys all full and will defo be going back!!!

Great food and authentic flavours! Had the a pizza and the lasagna was honestly one of the best I’ve had Only thing I’d fault was I waiting about 5/10 mins to be attended too at the start but it looked very busy but a table was available straight away and the service after that was 10/10 very accommodating with a takeaway box and very friendly! And again the food was great! Thanks

Absolutely gorgeous food and a warm welcoming atmosphere. Couldn't recommend more

We went today at lunch time with my family and friends and it was the best time!!!! I have been a lot of times there and always the food was amazing and perfect the people that work there are always so friendly and helpful to everyone!!!! Kids friendly the park was over there for the children’s to play!!!! We enjoyed the atmosphere and the food and like always we enjoyed the sunshine!!!!!

Beautiful place, amazing staff, very polite, clean and tasty food !

Food is not only delicious but portions are fantastic and the quality is great! This place is a true gem! A must visit and somewhere I will certainly be returning to!

I went there with my brother and uncle and it was my uncles bday and wanted to do a little surprise and all the staff were a great help i really appreciate all your hospitality and service the food as always was 10/10 never failed me and the atmosphere was great big shout out to all the staff

Had a lovely afternoon, everything was spot on even though it was really busy , thank you , Staff were amazing, food was very good and the Cocktails were very tasty, lovely atmosphere and very clean and tidy.

Perfect family place for all occasions

A fantastic dining experience! The food at La Bella Calabria is absolutely delicious, with authentic Italian flavors and fresh ingredients. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, making it the perfect place for a relaxed meal. The staff were friendly and attentive, but there was a bit of a wait before we were noticed. It might be worth expanding the team to improve service times. That said, once we were served, everything was wonderful. Highly recommend the pasta dishes and homemade desserts—simply amazing! Will definitely be returning.

Went here this evening for the first time and all I can say is WOW! The service was spot on and the food was amazing, every dish we had was delicious and very reasonably priced. We will def be back what an amazing find.

Lovely food and good service The set menu was very affordable I 100% recommend the profiteroles

The food was lovely and the portions generous! We tried a couple of their cocktails which were wonderful. I believe Melinda was our server and she was great and very patient with all my father’s questions. Would highly recommend and intend to come back soon.

Not real Italian food rather more English Food

I will definitely go back there. Next time I will try the pizza.

Amazing food, atmosphere and service highly recommended

Food good ,not really impressed, cold atmosphere. Ok for a night out.

Great place, Great food, Always busy, Reservations advised, especially in weekends

Hi there! I highly recommend La Bella Calabria! We celebrated valentine s day there and we were in love with it: the ambiance, the vibe, the personals, the food, everything was over our expectations 🥰🥰🥰 Congrats for everything you do! Thank you for all!❤️

Visited 10.02.25, party of 9. Perfect evening, beautiful food, and lovely staff. 100% worth a visit. Thankyou for the lovely evening.

Wow!!!! Amazing place!!! Staff were so friendly and helpful. The food was so lovely!! A special thank you to Layla who looked after us so well..

Lovely evening once we were shown to our table. It was a very busy evening and we waited about 20 minutes by the door until a table was cleared. The meal was lovely! Very very nice. Full of flavour, hot and well portioned. The drinks were over priced in my opinion. And no Guinness. The staff were very friendly and attentive and the atmosphere was lively. Definitely worth a visit. Plenty of parking and easy access for wheelchairs.

Our fav place to be, food is amazing, wine to die for, service given always spectacular thank you Layla and team on point as usual you never disappoint 😍😍

Hi there, I would like to give it 5 stars but for one reason I don’t ! I was dining in last week and someone smashed my car headlight and front grill and run , so I left my phone number to contact me and let me know who ever done can pay the damage so I have not received any phone call.! That’s why I give 3 stars as I will not go there no safety parking.

Have been going here for a while and it truly is a Gem. Food is absolutely delicious and the same level of consistency each time we visit. All the staff are brilliant and nothing is too much for them. The best Italian in the South East I would say!

Seriously can’t fathom how we’ve only recently discovered this hidden gem! I highly recommend this restaurant. We had the most amazing evening Saturday gone. They were fully booked, but still managed to accommodate us for a 8pm dinner slot - on arrival, the car park was packed, and now I completely understand why!! The meal was delicious (only missing a Michelin star or 2😎) Not only was there fast service but the presentation of the meal was also top tier! Staff members were so welcoming, polite and very attentive - they made us feel so comfortable. The atmosphere, vibe, decor - all in all was incredible. We will definitely be returning soon 🤩 Thank You for your service!

I've lived literally across the road for a year and decided to take my partner out for a meal tonight. Absolutely lovely restaraunt, friendly staff, lovely food and the desserts are to die for 🫶 Highly recommend this restaurant 10/10

Mixed kebabs, spicy rice, served hot and tasty followed by delicious profiteroles. Nice selection of drinks and coffee. Reason for 4* is music needs to be lower and in the background to enable conversation but apart from that would definitely recommend

My family and I visited La Bella Calabria for the first time at the weekend for my mums birthday. We will definitely be going back. Such a beautiful little gem. Fantastic food (generous portions), wonderful staff and great atmosphere. The staff are extremely accommodating and helpful. Thank you for making my Mums Birthday perfect

Great atmosphere, friendly staff and good food.

La Bella Calabria at 100 Parkside Dr, Houghton Regis, is an absolute gem for those seeking authentic Italian cuisine with a warm and welcoming atmosphere. We recently celebrated a friend’s birthday here, and it turned out to be a delightful experience that exceeded all expectations. From the moment we walked in, the ambiance felt cozy and inviting, with a touch of rustic Italian charm. The staff were exceptionally friendly, attentive, and accommodating, making sure everything was perfect for our celebration. They even went the extra mile to add a special touch for the birthday, which made our evening feel extra memorable. The food was outstanding—every dish we tried was packed with flavor and prepared with evident care and fresh ingredients. The menu offered a variety of options, from classic Italian staples like pasta and pizza to more refined dishes. The lasagna was perfectly layered with rich, savory sauce, and the seafood risotto was bursting with freshness. The pizzas were authentic, with a thin, crispy crust and generous toppings. For dessert, the tiramisu was heavenly—light, creamy, and just the right amount of sweetness. Portion sizes were generous, and the prices were very reasonable considering the high quality of the food and service. The restaurant also had a well-curated wine list, which complemented the dishes perfectly. Overall, La Bella Calabria is the perfect spot for a cozy dinner, a family gathering, or a special celebration like ours. It’s a place where you feel like a valued guest, and the delicious food will have you coming back for more. Highly recommended for anyone in the Dunstable area looking for a taste of Italy!

Very very good, highly recommended, food is good, lots of choices, vegetarian meals available, so are pizzas, we went as a post christmas party and everyone enjoyed the evening.

Beautiful food. Excellent service and spotlessly clean. Highly recommended

La Bella Calabria: Excellent Italian Dining La Bella Calabria is a fantastic restaurant with delicious food, warm service, and a cosy atmosphere. Every dish was full of flavour, and the staff made the experience truly enjoyable. Highly recommended for a lovely meal out!

Great food Great menu Great service

Nicola Callaghan. We went tonight. Amazing food Amazing service. Dessert was lovely..we will be back would highly recommend. .oh cocktail we very good. Good strength not these weak ones. Top 5 * place .

This place completely surprised me. Inside is so much bigger than you would imagine, we got seated in a kind of conservatory type place, i thought it was going to be freezing but it was so warm in there, the atmosphere is amazing and the place itself is so lovely. The food was 10/10, the portions are more than generous and everything tasted unbelievable. Honestly would recommend to anyone. The service was good but we were served by someone who was just starting out so was a little rocky. But all in all a great experience and am planning on going back.

Lovely little place. Food was good. Parking was hit and miss depending on if there are sports going on.

All good service excellent wii definitely be back. Try a visit you won’t be disappointed.

Eddy was the best waitress was amazing we'll done to la bella calabria we'll worthy

Great experience and my daughter loved having everyone sing happy birthday to her!!

Amazing food, great service all-around fantastic restaurant

Nice and clean very good stuff very top of the rang food thank sir I will cam bake again bring my family thank

It is the most under rated restaurant and location. Its located in residential area of hughton regis. The food, service, atmos, everything ticks the box. Its spacious and sufficient room for families with kids. They even have kids menu which tastes as good.

good food but pretty small portions for one pizza

Excellent meal there were 10 people in our party and all were pleased with there food.

Last minute booking and they managed to squeeze 3 of us in. Well what an experience. Great food and such fantastic staff 🤩 every interaction we had was a positive one. Well done La Bella Calabria, you have made a regular out of us x

Perfect place for any occasion. Food was delicious and the staff were brilliant.

Great food, so much so that we returned the next evening.

Had a nice evening but you feel like you're being rushed. You have 2 hours from when you arrive so you can't relax as you're constantly looking at your watch!

Nice food. Good value for money. Quite loud though, hard to talk to my friend over noise. Parking is very limited also

The food here is incredible! The portion sizes are well worth the money. The staff are attentive and very friendly. The restaurant itself is lovely inside and such a good vibe. Cocktails were lovely and 2for1.

So busy but still great time of service, amazing lasagne and tiramisu, definitely will be coming back

Yes this place is very nice and clean, food yummy. Def recommend my friends.

The Sunday roast is a classic British meal, cherished for its comforting and hearty qualities. It typically consists of roasted halal chicken served with accompaniments like roasted potatoes, Yorkshire pudding, seasonal vegetables, and Yorkshire pudding. Flavour Variety: The combination of roasted meat, crispy potatoes, and savory Yorkshire pudding offers a variety of textures and flavors. Comforting Atmosphere: A Sunday roast is more than a meal; it’s a tradition that brings people together, making it perfect for family gatherings or casual dining with friends. It accommodates diverse preferences, with vegetarian versions using nut roasts or roasted vegetables as the centerpiece. Quality Gravy: When done well, the gravy ties everything together, adding a rich, savory finish.

Love their burgers and they do a wonderful pizza. Next time it's going to be the Mix Grill. Very pleased with the place. Definitely going back.

Great food selection, value for money, and friendly staff

The best restaurant in town! The food is absolutely delicious, the service is impeccable, and the atmosphere is warm and welcoming. Everything was perfect – I have nothing to complain about. Highly recommend!!!

Good place for families and group of friends to take food and drink.

Food was tasty, good portions, staff were friendly, only downside was it was noislllit was a Saturday night though so it was busy. We struggled to hear everyone on the table talking. But I would still recommend and will come back.

Alexandra the best 🥰 Perfect! We like it

Alexandra was excellent at serving us and we enjoyed the experience very much

The place had a really nice vibe, and our waitress, Alexandra, was super sweet and friendly.

Very tasty food, staff is very friendly and efficient. Didn't have to wait too long for the food. l highly recommend it.

The food was amazing,the staff were amazing,professional and friendly ,We were today for an occasion.

This place has always outperformed any restaurant that I have been to, we had our Christmas meal here last night, 28 of us & we had no issues, food was excellent, service was excellent, atmosphere was amazing, staff were amazing. Thank you Eddie for all your help ❤

My first fillet steak was overcooked, so we sent it back. The next one was fine, but because of the delay, my wife had finished her main course before I had started mine, which did not make for a very nice 'date night' experience 😢

Clean environment, friendly staff Elena was very lovely, kind and compassionate, she has excellent communication skills and customer service skills. Steak was fair but the mash was nothing to write home about, just mash potatoes without milk or butter, I feel the chef would have done better.

Modern, bright restaurant. Great food

Great food, great service with a lively atmosphere.....

Really enjoying our evening meal for our date night. We will be back for sure. Would definitely recommend 👌 👍🏻

I'm definitely coming back! Friendly staff! The food was excellent!

Amazing food and service, only thing I would change is it was a bit too loud with the music combined with how busy it was. My daughter struggles with loud noise so became overwhelmed during the meal but could not fault the food or service at all.

Very impressive 👏 Very good customer service and food is so tasty. All was so go so definitely I will come back soon!

Wonderful food. wonderful service. Thank you La Bella Calabria.

Daniela, very well...Thanks. Thank you.

Amazing all round. Had the Bolognese and Vegan Risotto (amazing!). Food was really fresh yet quickly served. Staff all were lovely. Thanks for treating us humble Northerners to a blooming good feed!

Nice atmosphere and friendly staff! Food were large portions.

The food was amazing, hot and tasty. Will go again. Staff friendly and welcoming. Service very quick but not rushed

This place is my favourite restaurant in Dunstable - a lovely atmosphere, absolutely delicious food and surprisingly decent prices. Highly recommend the mussels (although it doesn't come with bread to mop up the sauce) and the seafood tagliatelle.... scrumptious.

Highly recommend! Space is nice and clean, the food is extraordinary and the staff is very friendly.

Had a meal with a family and it was very good

Absolutely lovely atmosphere, staff are amazing and food

Fantastic restaurant that caters for all. Great location, plenty of parking, food was lovely, staff were on the ball and friendly. Will be back again

Highly recommend 👌 delicious food, staff very friendly

Really nice place, great atmoshere, good food and really lovely staff!!

My only and lovely favourite restaurant...food delicious friendly staff i would recommend %100 for any ocasion.

Best place to eat in Luton area!

What a lovely restaurant excellent food service was a brilliant good portion of food at a very reasonable price, happy friendly services.

Very professional and kind service. Nice and family decor. The smell of Italian cuisine spreads throughout the restaurant. The pizza and ingredients are amazing.Great place for families.

If you're going to have an Italian restaurant, I expect the pasta to be al dente anyway. Here it was overcooked, there were several of us who ate and I and one other had pasta in different varieties, i.e. not the same kind, both were mushy. The staff were really nice though. Otherwise, the music was played far too loud, which spoiled the atmosphere.

The food and service were fine, the main courses were great but they need to specify on the menu if chilli is included in a dish as my starter had chilli which I am intolerant of. To be fair I told the manger and staff this and they took my starter off the bill and gave us a complimentary shot to make up for my discomfort. I've never been there before so was expecting a more traditional Italian restaurant, which it isn't but overall a good night out.

1st time here would highly recommend mixed grill cooked to perfection 👌 will definitely be coming back

Been many times to La Bella Calabria. Always good service. Sat in the new extension which was nice, however could do with some blinds to the car park, after being dazzled by so many headlights. Great food. A little bit more expensive than your average however completely worth it.

Quality food, great atmosphere, very clean, Ale was our server and she was very nice and attentive

Excellent food, amasing atmosphere! Best server: Ale - she turn our dinner into a wonderfull experience. 🥰

Just WOW! It’s a hidden gem indeed! We had a lunch recommended by staff there and was stunned by incredible delicious food and coffee. The interior is very cozy and music is relaxing. Amazing atmosphere here!!!

Great experience at La Bella Calabria for a family birthday celebration. We were at Whipsnade Zoo for a family birthday celebration. I did some research into local restaurants and this one came highly recommend on TripAdvisor (we're not local). Fantastic service by our waitress who was friendly and chatty, went the extra mile for our birthday celebration. Food was really good and quick with good portion sizes. Prices were fair for the quality and we'd go back again!
