Bella Trattoria Italian Bistro

The food was cold, burnt, bland, and not prepared the way we asked. We also waited about an hour for it too! The back waiter did not even check it. Our table was extremely wobbly, so we couldn’t sit or eat comfortably. We couldn’t keep drinks on the table without it almost falling. I normally don’t leave feedback like this unless it was really bad. It’s a shame because the Mission Inn has a great reputation…

Food is fine but service is very slow. They try but understaffed it looks like. There aren’t so many other options in this area. The tortellini and spaghetti meatballs were ok. The Calzone was bad. Vegetarian options: Not so many options Kid-friendliness: They don’t have a kids menus or kids options

Tes, it was right after Christmas and they were busy, but still, that's jit an excuse. They first wanted to sit us outside, but we had reservations for inside, which they verified. It didn't matter because it was just as cold inside since they kept the doors opened, and the people outside at least had heaters. I must add that being our anniversary I was exited about our dinner and had dressed nicely for the occasion, but because it was cold I had to keep my coat on at all times. How dissapointing that was. The food was mediocre. I ordered spaghetti and it arrived barely warm with no extras of any kind. No sprig of parsley or cheese parmesano, nothing. I had to request the cheese, and then again, as they forgot. The $14 bread basket had 3 pieces of good bread and then these small and thin bread sticks, which are sold at grocery stores for a whole lot less. My husband's pizza was good. When asked for dessert, the waitress didn't know what kind of pane cotta they had, but by that time I was sure we could get something better for less somewhere else. Then the bill came and it was wrong, they had to redo it twice. The 3rd time it was correct. I don't think we will be returning there.

Food ok at best service was good atmosphere was nice management needs to be replaced

Understaffed... Took 15 minutes to get water, and a double espresso (The waitress didn't understand doppio... By the way.) It tasted like regular coffee, and not fresh, maybe lavazza from a k cup?? Yet a salad, once ordered, came out within 60 seconds, and on a hot plate. Will not come back on a Sunday afternoon.

My wife and I ordered 2 dishes that we could share and they were linguine with pesto and tortellini that had short rib beef inside. Both were really good!

Service was great, but everything else was mediocre. Food was brought less than 2 min after being ordered, which meant they had the food premade on standby; we didn't even get a chance to strike up a convo before we started eating. The selection was extremely small, so I was surprised it wasn't fresh, but the food was boiling hot, I burned my mouth because I didn't see the steam of the food since it was very dark inside the restaurant and the servers didn't warn me about the temperature. The taste of the food was basic as well, nothing special about the sauces, or the meats. The atmosphere was uncomfortable as well; since it was a really small place, with limited space, every conversation being had was bouncing off the walls and I couldn't even hear what my fiance was saying who was sitting right next to me. Overall it looked nice, I thought it was going to be lovely, but it wasn't a date night spot. I think people feel, since it's the "Mission Inn" it's going to be "fancy, and exquisite" but it's actually just a dressed up corner cluster, that was so lively, and loud, I felt that everything was so rushed. We were given the bill within 10 min, and we were out of the place within 25 min of arriving. I felt that olive garden would've been a better choice, because they would've had more selection, more alcohol choices, a more intimate setting, and a better taste in food. We would've at least had time to have a decent conversation, but I know there are few folks who like their food ready in an instant, so it would be a good spot for you if you do. Glad I tried it once, but I don't recommend this place to anyone. Parking: Free street parking is about 2 blocks away, and paid lots are always full. Wheelchair accessibility: Doors are wide enough to accommodate a wheelchair for inside dinning, but there is limited space to choose from. All tables are meant for chairs, but they very are clustered together.

Not at all impressed. I can take anyone to a much better Italian experience for half the price. Service wasn't attentive enough to our needs, took forever to check on our table. Took forever to get bread to the table and the food was a long wait as well. The only good thing was the atmosphere at Christmas time simply beautiful! Will not go back.

Just a shoutout to the manager Shelby that was so nice.
