Bella Monica - Raleigh

WOW!! I cannot explain how good the food is here. The flatbread was so freaking good!! Really some of the best. Perfect amount of crunch, pepperonis and sausage. One of the specials was a salad with pancetta, heirloom tomatoes, fresh basil and arugula. I could eat that salad every day ? It was so fresh and delicious. We also got mozzarella garlic bread and mushrooms (don?t recommend) it had a fried egg on top of sautéed mushrooms. Lasagna was superb and HUGE portions!! No leftovers after though ? Will definitely be back!!! The only suggestion I would add is turning down the fans inside. It really did get cold very quickly and it was a little unpleasant.

Went to Bella Monica tonight for my birthday just WOW! Mussels in mushroom leek sauce....to die for! Eggplant Rollatini was delicious, but after the mussels was only able to eat a few bites. Tomorrows lunch will be Heavenly. Love this place!

We decided to grab a nice glass of wine and some lunch here after a trip to the art museum. We were thrilled with the find because they had an extensive gluten free menu. And the majority of it was also vegetarian too, which was perfect for me. We ended up splitting 3 different dishes and 1 liter of Pinot Grigio. All were delightful and extremely tasty. The restaurant was a bit dark for our liking, but other than that one minor complaint, everything was fantastic. We will definitely be back again soon!

Amazing food and amazing service. Beautiful affordable quality wines. Pasta was amazing as well as the appetizers and salads. Wonderful experience and would highly recommend.

Not much of a fan of Italian food. But this place was great. Great service, though they were pretty busy. Excellent food. Aubergine dish worth a try. I don't know the eggplant could taste so good. In any case, it will try again.
