Absolutely phenomenal. The food was outstanding. Felt like we were in the Mediterranean. It's been a long time since we have experienced food like it. Compliments to the chef & management. Honestly our taste buds are still on cloud 9. Well done, can't recommend it enough! We had the meatballs starter, then ricotta ravioli & sea food linguine. To finish a strawberry cheesecake & almond and orange tart. YUM YUM & More yum Surberb xx

Just had a lovely meal at la Bella chime in Hartford. My friend accidentally ordered on the old website an afternoon tea and the chef did not let us down. They prepared an Italian style afternoon tea and what a lovely experience that was! I would definitely recommend this and we were told this was a new option coming soon. Everything we received was amazing and the flavours..... you need to try this!!

Went for Valentines. It was packed. It's a nice restaurant and looks like maybe it was renovated recently. We were sat upstairs, which was quite roomy. Food was really good just what you want from a n Italian restaurant. Service was ok, the waiting staff were busy and seems a bit flustered. We ordered still water, got sparkling but didn't make a fuss. Overall it was a good experience, food was good and not bad prices. Will definatelly go again when not so busy. Recommended.
