What Jinty478 likes about Ciao Bella:
I went to this restaurant for lunch and was greeted by a very friendly staff member who escorted us to our reserved table. I had read some reviews that were not too positive, so I was unsure of what to expect. However, there was no need to worry as the service was excellent and the food was delicious. The four of us shared a platter for a starter, which was more than enough. Our main meals were also enjoyed, although... View all feedback. What Lynn C doesn't like about Ciao Bella:
Very sorry for this review buy having been there last month we had to send 4 dishes back between 6 of this (most the mussels). The manager did not give a toss, portions were small. I got the italian sausage and it was £5 and i finished it in less than 1 minute !! Beer expensive, wine expensive, food expensive. Must do more View all feedback.

Nestled in Burnside, Ciao Bella stands out as a promising Italian restaurant, blending quality cuisine with a welcoming atmosphere. Although initial visits encountered service lapses and lackluster dishes, many patrons report improvement in food quality and attentive service on subsequent visits. The cozy ambiance, adorned with charming Italian decor, appeals for both casual dinners and special occasions. While the menu features delightful options like spicy sausage pasta and impressive cocktails, some find the pricing steep and portions on the smaller side. Overall, Ciao Bella is evolving as a noteworthy culinary destination worthy of exploration.
