La Bella in Central Bedfordshire

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 👌 👍🏻

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

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

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.

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

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!

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

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.

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.

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

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!!!

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. 🥰

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!

Visited in the evening on a Saturday and the place was heaving. Luckily we had booked. Initially found the room very noisy, both from the the general hubbub and also music on the speakers, however, we were immediately moved to another quieter area, when requested, with no problems. The menu is substantial and you can see the team of chefs working away in the open kitchen. No boil in the bag pub grub here, it was clearly all being cooked to order. The waiting staff were all very polite and efficient. Our waitress also had a great sense of humour. Drinks orders taken quickly and arrived shortly afterwards. Food ordered shortly after and turned up in a timely manner. Keeping in mind that the place was packed, I was expecting to have to wait, but there were no delays and staff came by regularly. My wife asked for some more toast with her pate and it was not an issue and arrived within a couple of minutes. The main courses were of good portions, well presented and very tasty. Needless to say, we had to try the desserts which were also very nice. Total bill with drinks for four adults having three courses was £156, so not cheap, but not expensive either. I am looking forward to returning and trying out lunch time. It is amazing to find a place this good tucked away in a housing estate. My only reason for four stars was the initial noise levels. Had we not been able to move I would have found it quite uncomfortable and difficult to hold a conversation. As it was, the area we ended up sitting in was absolutely fine.

Excellent service, great food, good price! Kids love it! Been for a few times still love it

I booked online for the 5 of us hoping to get s Sunday roast. I also left a phone message asking for them to book us a table but never heard back from anyone to say it was booked. So I decided to call a couple of hours before our slot to check reservation as I didn't receive a email or anything. Spoke with a guy and he said yes it's all in the diary. I asked would we all be able to a roast Sunday lunch he said yes no problem. I again asked would it be wise for us to order our lunch in advance as I know they can run out. He assured me no your be fine they have plenty of food it wouldn't be necessary. So we arrived on time, and was seated 10 min later, when we were about to order the waitress said no roast dinners! So we were extremely disappointed especially as we called to check if we needed to and were told no. However decided to order from the menu, we all enjoyed the food with exception to one of our guest who said the veal was a bit tough. Luckily it's a place we have visited a good few times so it won't put us off, but we will in the future ring and book our roast in advance!

Nice place in nice location. Tasty food

Came here on a weekday for a catch up with a friend and was lovely as we sat in conservatory bit and had lunchtime menu which was big enough for me....came on a Saturday for family catch up and there was quite a few of us. Was very, very busy, and the menu was different from lunchtime.....I ordered the seabass and even though I only had the prawn cocktail for starters, I couldn't finish my dinner... was very good but big portions....I'll remember for next time. Service was very good considering how busy the place was and the only reason I gave a 4 for atmosphere was because we were all trying to catch up so was hard to hear 😄....but otherwise all good

I have been here a few times I enjoyed the food and the service the portions are just the right size and as I am tall and large person that's rear.

Food is 5* reasonably priced must be visited if your around

We enjoyed another lovely meal last night. We came with 6 friends for their first visit. Everyone enjoyed their meal. We will be back again soon.

Booked a table for my daughters 21st, althoughthere were 15 of us we received our food quickly. Food was lovely, service was attentive without intrusive. Thoroughly recommend

Very nice place, tasty food. I recommend

The live show was so entertaining, so talented. Food was so big and delicious, we rolled out of there, love this place

5 STARS, NO DOUGHT. The mayo tasted sweet and like cream, everything else was good, gluten free and vegetarian options 👍👍

We live close by and this is our first experience of La Bella Calabria! WE WILL BE BACK!! I chose the pollo BBQ pizza which DIDN'T disappoint. Although we ordered and collected we went inside and the atmosphere was welcoming and the restaurant was clean.

This restaurant offers a pleasant dining experience with tasty food, attentive service, and a comfortable atmosphere at fair prices. The addition of a cocktail bar and the open kitchen concept enhance the overall experience, providing both visual interest and transparency. It's particularly well-suited for family outings, celebrations, and those who appreciate seeing their food being prepared in a professional setting.

Very nice food, I like it nice people and very good services. I spend 600£ whit all my friends and all was very happy about food and restaurant.

The food is very good, tasty, with quality products, whether it's pizza or elaborate food. All the staff are very friendly and attentive to everyone's needs. We went to celebrate a birthday and there was a singer in Italian and there was even a dance

Beautiful place, good food, staff friendly. 🥂

What a fantastic place!! Eddy is amazing, the food superb, service is the best, The place is lovely. We sat at the back and loved the view. Italian music played throughout. Cannot recommend highly enough.

An absolute gem! Amazing food, great prices, brilliant service and a warm welcome as soon as you walk through the door. You can tell the food is cooked with a real passion, and authentic Italian touch. Great value for money, especially when you consider that they don't scrimp on the portions either! Full of flavour that you'll be hard pushed to match outside of Italy. Even once we'd paid the bill, you aren't rushed out, like so many places. We'll definitely be back!

The best place where you can eat italian foods

The owner having a "lovely" attitude against foreigners kids. When with other kids nothing to say against them.

Nice Italian restaurant, I really recommend it

We had a great meal last night in the new outdoor space area. Our choices were delightful, full of taste, portion sizes were good. Would highly recommend!

Excellent food, service very good, if you leave some food, Doggy bags supply 👍just a wonderful place to eat 😋 😀 😉

I was today with my aunt for dinner in this Amazing place. Elena and Natalie was wonderful. Nice and polite, all the time smile. Amazing experience and really nice place to spending Amazing time🥰 Highly recommend 🥰🥰🥰 Strong 5*

An excellent all round experience. Can't fault at all.

Who knew this lovely restaurant was in this location? We could not fault it, downside was I couldn't finish my food, especially the lovely dessert! We are already planning our return and Christmas work celebrations!

Went for birthday lunch. Great food Great service Nice atmosphere Highly recommend Good value for money and staff really helpful about allergies

Love the food and waitresses good. Only a 4 as was my son's birthday and despite me mentioning it at the start, they didn't do anything. Most places put a candle in the dessert or something and we ordered 3 courses .

Lunch time special with a cheeky Strawberry Mojito mocktail to celebrate a friends birthday. As usual the food did not disappoint. The portions were amazing and tasty and service from everyone was first class!!!

I totally recommend it to everyone. Nice atmosphere,good food and cocktails are literally amazing. Daniela and her colleagues are very friendly and professional, 10 stars for the service. Definitely I’ll come back again.

We recently had the pleasure of dining at La Bella Calabria, and I can't recommend it highly enough. From the moment we walked in, the warm and welcoming atmosphere set the tone for a delightful lunch. The waitstaff was attentive and courteous, making us feel right at home without being overbearing. The menu offers a well-curated selection of Italian classics, each dish beautifully balanced in flavor. The portions were generous, ensuring we left fully satisfied. Whether it was the rich pasta, tender meat dishes, or the chicken, every bite was a testament to the chef’s expertise. To top it all off, the desserts were simply divine. Each one was a perfect blend of sweet and savory italian cuisine, the ideal way to end a meal. The tiramisu, in particular, was the best I’ve had in a long time. Overall, La Bella Italia is a gem for anyone who appreciates authentic Italian cuisine, great service, and a cozy atmosphere. I’ll definitely be returning soon!

Loved it and we went while it wasn’t busy at all. So we had great table choice and attention from waiting staff. Being in a neighbourhood is unique too!

Excellent food and service 👌 well worth a visit

Been here loads of times and never disappointed with there food or service. Sunday roasts are on point 👌🏻

Absolutely delicious dishes every time! The service and atmosphere are great, and we totally love the mocktails!! Whether we attended as a family (with 3 kids) or as a couple, the level of satisfaction is high every time. Keep up the great work!

Great service and food, really lovely.

One of my new favourite places to go. Wonderful staff, very friendly welcoming and attentive. Food is out of this world. Highly recommend

1st time there busy restaurant book a table for 2 ,staff friendly and good service , food was delicious would highly recommend it to anyone.

I didn't receive the lunch menu offer that is valid until 3:00 PM because I was told "it's only 15 minutes until 3:00 PM."

First visit for birthday meal. Had Sunday roast complete with side plate sized yorkshire. Loads of gravy, every meat was succulent. Veg cooked,roast potatoes yummy, mash, cauliflower cheese. I cannot fault one thing about the dinner. Desserts great too if you can squeeze it in. Definitely 100% on my recommendation list. Try it you won't regret it..... Got a helium 🎈 as my birthday celebrations. Dessert came with a candle and everyone singing happy birthday too... Made my day. .

Very nice food, service and atmosphere. Would definitely recommend

Best Italian meal I've had in a long long while !!

Sunday early evening for dinner. Very warm welcome on arrival. Drinks arrived quickly. Food was also very quick. Ordered a burger and wow, one of the tastiest burgers I’ve had. Big portions of food and great quality. May be slightly more expensive than other restaurants but well worth the money. All staff seemed to be happy in their work and the whole place had a real’ family’ feel to it. I would definitely eat here again. One of the best restaurants in the area.

Good customer service. But wasn’t impressed with the food. I had a pizza and my partner had lasagne. I thought they were both pretty standard, I think the quality at Wetherspoons is better. I found the pizza quite salty, and my partner didn’t have a lot of meat in her lasagne but was packed with cheese.

Had a great time and spent another birthday here!

Our first visit but after good recommendations. Great food but portions too big for me, however, others were taking leftovers home so I could do that next time. Very polite friendly staff. Left my umbrella behind and they kept it for me to collect.

Lovely staff, great service and amazing food. Can't wait to go again!

VERY RUDE CHEF!!! I don't recommend

Well if you are looking for a job, don't waste your time!!! Went to an interview and got offered the trial shift. After trial shift was told that i will get a call to arrange shifts. Oh boy i was wrong. Understandable if they have found someone else, but they have completely ghosted me! It's huge disrespect and waste of someone elses time. If they found someone else it's fine, but atleast have respect for person who wasted their time and money to go there and let them know!

Might be Best italian in Dustable area ? 👌🏻👌🏻

Lovely place to spend family time. Highly recommend

Lovely place but above lovley staff especially the little girl Daniella

food was undercooked it was disgusting the service was really poor long time and rude workers the atmosphere was chaotic kids constantly screaming and crying and full grown adults getting drunk and shouting constantly it is a filth would not recommend

Good service and nice Italian food.

Wow!!!! Amazing place!!! Staff were so friendly and helpful. The food was so lovely!!

Ed made me the best lasagna I have ever had. Great restaurant with great atmosphere and very helpful staff. Highly recommend the restaurant.

Our second visit to this local Italian and it didn't disappoint. Comprehensive menu listing all the classics, definitely much nicer than the chain restaurants, worth the extra

Had dinner here a couple of times and omg the food is amazing well worth it and desserts. Fantastic service very professional very polite. Have to say there is no negatives about this restaurant just positives 👍👍👍👍

Thoroughly enjoyed our visit here! Recently moved to the area and visited for our anniversary meal. The staff could not have been any more attentive to ensure that we recieved a personalised service. The food and the service was fantastic and the service was super quick! Will definitely be back again!

What an amazing gem. Really didn't expect such an amazing restaurant, food & staff in the heart of Houghton Regis. I went there today for lunch with my uncle & aunt (who are regulars) and I can't wait to go back. I can't recommend more highly. If I could make only one suggestion/improvement it would be an outside eating area, then I'd be hooked for the summer.

The food was so delicious and the customer service was excellent and the staff there were really friendly. I will definitely recommend this restaurant for family, friends or couples, I would like to go and have another visit!!!

Very nice location, amazing food, friendly staf. 👍

Amazing place and very good food. Thank you

Family visiting from New Zealand and had a great reunion food was great, service good and atmosphere lovely Thank you La Bella Calabria

Lovely well cooked and tasty food. Large portion sizes and hot. Super fast and friendly service.
