La Bella Italiana in Saint-Leonard

Great discovery, we loved the atmosphere and the food. Thank you very much Johnny for the service.

The food is excellent, the service friendly and relaxed. It is best to book in advance, at least on Friday evening! Little privacy between tables. Bella Italiana pizza is worth the detour!

Ive tried many dishes on the menu .. From meatballs , calamari, sliders to gnocchi poutine Spaghetti bolognese , pizza , table dhote risotto , veal dishes , branzino, everytime was very good Danny and his team are very attentive.. Great food ... Great service ..gotta try this restaurant

The wood oven pizza was excellent and what to say about the calamari fritti entry, delightful! Owner Fabio is very attentive and the service is fast and courteous.

Excellent food and service. Thanks

A well-kept neighborhood secret! Everything is good on their menu. Beyond the pasta and pizzas freshly prepared on site and cooked in their authentic wood-fired oven, the starters like mini-burgers are succulent (a real minced meatball with taste!!), the beef tartare: perfect!!! They also have excellent white and red house wine. For those with a sweet tooth: you will be satisfied with the different dessert options! I really like their tartufo and tiramisu cake. Nice and pleasant terrace in summer facing the sun. Its better to reserve, because its always full. No wonder: a real quality restaurant with authentic Italian cuisine.

One of the best pizzas I ve had in Montreal. Partners pasta dish also excellent. Shh secret: if you prefer authentic Italian comfort food, skip little Italy and head to St Leonard.

Our first time at this restaurant and the food was excellent!! We didnt have a reservation and despite the room being crowded we were still given a table quickly. I will definitely come back for the food and for the lovely servers too!

Excellent Food. If I could I would order the menu. Everything is so goooood!!

Very friendly ambiance

Really very good!!!!

My wife and I enjoyed an incredibly delicious dinner complete with dessert but the best part of our evening was the friendly staff who, despite being extremely busy, took the time to chat with us and make us feel at home. We look forward to going back next time we re in Montreal. Vegetarian options: Delicious gnocchi al gongonzola.

Delicious food!

By far the best around.Try the polpette you wont be disappointed. Try the pasta amatriciana you wont be disappointed.

good food excellent service very welcoming

Love the food and atmosphere. I had a great time there.

Vegetarian options: Pizza végé Food

Honestly the food is good...Pizza, the calamari, the salmon....I have to go back to taste the pasta... Dietary restrictions: No lactose-free, gluten-free service...not much choice of alcohol-free drinks.

great food!

Its been a few years since Ive been there and its still so good! The service was courteous and fast, even though the restaurant was crowded. I highly recommend the place and especially the pizza napoletana!

Very cold welcome and we were rushed to eat and order our dishes, all even after having made and confirmed our reservation several days in advance. I gave it 3 stars because the food was still very good but the service was really not there unfortunately.

Excellent service and the meals are very good!

What a beautiful Wood Oven Pizza.... no. Lose

Amazing authentic Italian food served with amore .. I everything!

Very good service. Succulent plate of pizza and polpette as a starter as well as excellent homemade Caesar salad.

Best pizza in town. The service is excellent

I went for a pizza with my brother the pizza was excellent right thickness taste ingredients best i recommend this place

Succulent dinner in a perfect atmosphere on the terrace! This restaurant is in my top 3

We never get tired of it.

I had an anazing night here with my friand. Thé service was amazing.

I recommend the pizza. Long live wood-fired ovens

Pizzas are A1

7/10

For my partners birthday he wanted to try a pasta restaurant Wow really a nice surprise I highly recommend! Large portions for the quality and price to try!!

Not very impressed: simple food, very noisy atmosphere for a small neighborhood restaurant, we speak to the employees in French and they still answer us in English.. Its not as if it was an English-speaking neighborhood! Menu not very diverse, either pasta or pizza as main dishes. If you want a restaurant where you can eat quietly as a couple, go elsewhere because we could barely hear each other speak!

OMG the pizza at La Bella Italiana is flawless. i highly recommend it

Food was delicious and service was absolutely incredible. 10/10 highly recommend, would definitely go back!

Very warm, friendly atmosphere, Italian welcome and excellent Italian cuisine, generous and good portion

We discovered this restaurant by chance: we ate on the terrace which is well furnished and covered with a roof in case of rain. We received good service from our server. We were in a bit of a hurry so we didnt stay long. We tried the aranchini; the tomato sauce was delicious! We had pizzas cooked in a wood oven; yummm!! We will definitely return to try the pasta and other dishes on the menu. They have a varied menu; for all tastes!

The best gigi sauce, still just as good

Always great food and service.

Grianfranco was our waiter and his recommendations were right on the spot! Great food and service.

Went as a group last Saturday. Great experience, good meal, fast service.. good prices and good choices, a small downside only one toilet for men in the whole restaurant .. to rethink ..

Great food and Great service!

We went to La Bella Italiana for our first time. Celebrating father s day Calamari friti were perfect, gnochi delicious, pasta excelent Food is authentic italian, tastes very Mediterranean. Gelato is very very good We will definitely return to taste the pizzas

Went here for dinner with my husband and a friend - the service was very good, the pasta looked amazing, and the risotto was delicious ! The atmosphere is very warm and comfortable, and the waiter had good meal suggestions.

Pleasant atmosphere, succulent meals and impeccable service. Parking: Parking at the back but little space. On the other hand, it is easy to find free street parking.

Amazing service and great food! Highly recommend.

My family buys pizza here regularly. If you want stove baked pizza, you cant go wrong with Bella Italia. The pasta is also excellent! Kid-friendliness: Boosters are available if requested. Wheelchair accessibility: The recent upgrade to the terasse last year came with a ramp.

Very good food! Had a great service during lunch time with Gianluca. Pasta and pizza are excellents!

Amazing everything is perfect

One the best Napoli style pizza I ever had. Great food and amazing service.

Amazing pizza,service and gelato! Cant wait to come back for the pistachio pesto pasta !!

Customers for 10 years, we continue to love this restaurant. Claire and I love the crispy, well-cooked dough on their pizzas. Our best: the beautiful Italian and the vegetables. Pastas, salads, squid and more are always well prepared and tasty.

We had very good pizza, the buratta my life!!! It was not bad and so were the cannolis. I will definitely come back. The lady serving was very pleasant and welcoming.

Im very picky with my pizza (Im born and raised in Italy ) .. its fantastic .. you cant go wrong with wood oven .. they have very good appetizers, nice portions of pasta and very good desserts. Price too is very good Best REAL Italian pizza on est end for my opinion ! Grazie ragazzi

Delicious food, great service, wonderful staff. Great overall experience.

I love this restaurant

Delicious food and very friendly and welcoming staff I highly recommend it.

Pella Madonna! Fantastic

The food was pretty good but I was so disappointed by the service. We had a 6pm reservation and we were told that we had the the table until 8pm. We were there for a birthday party and the whole time we felt super rushed and it was uncomfortable. The waitress/waiters kept asking if we are done while we were still eating. Then at 7:40 the waitress goes we are rushing because the other party is already here but they were rushing the whole time. We ended up just leaving at this point because it felt so unpleasant and annoying.

Its 45 minutes from our house, but every visit is worth it. Delicious pizzas, succulent gelato and impeccable service Wheelchair accessibility: Accessible by walker.

Best place to eat in st-leonard, good vibes and amazing pizza

Best place for italian, good service, good food

My new favorite Italian restaurant We over stayed after closing time hence I was able to take pictures. Food is good liked their service and oven baked pizza. Food : 4/5

Located in the heart of the city, this restaurant captures the essence of Italys culinary heritage. With every visit, youre transported to a place where flavors dance on your palate and memories are made. The talented chefs craft dishes that are both authentic and delicious, leaving you craving more with each bite. Whether you dine in or take out, the experience is nothing short of exceptional. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone in search of a taste of Italys charm. Buon appetito!

Great pasta and calamari

The food is amazing!! I ve never tasted a pizza and pesto pasta better then theirs! The employees are friendly.

Succulent meal and impeccable service! The delicious oven pizza and the really excellent fresh pasta!

Great food. Excellent service. Family atmosphere

Fast and courteous service, The gnocchi were excellent.

Excellent food as always. Good service without pretensions. The restaurant is always full so it can sometimes be quite noisy.

For several years we have appreciated this authentic family cuisine so much, the service is always very attentive. Very popular so make your reservations

This restaurant is excellent

Top Wood burning pizza in MTL Amazing staff and what a pizza !!!! Just like in Italy Food : 5/5

Very good food and service! We loved it! Music a little loud and tables a little too close together.

We came to La Bella Italian food late on a Thursday. It was excellent and service was amazing, will be back again. They were very accommodating and also it s a very clean restaurant and well put together

Everything was perfect!! The welcome, the service and the food. I recommend without hesitation!!! Beautiful evening It was the first time but certainly not the last!!!! I highly recommend it!!!!!

Full of happiness just that

From the moment you walk in to Bella Italiana you feel right at home. Everyone is so welcoming and attentive. The food is delicious, the ambiance is pleasant and the service is exceptional. Everything is always consistent, you will never have a bad experience. Thank you to Fabio, Danny and the entire team. Grazie!

A pizza that will take you on a journey to Italy

Super!

The meal is super good and the service too

Wow amazing Italian food

Great food, amazing staff!!

Excellent

Great food and service as always! I recommend!

Best gelattos, best pizzas, best waiters!

Quite disappointed with their Margherita pizza. For 19$, it was quite ordinary (cheese was too salty, no basil, ordinary flavor sauce and dough). It was very busy when I ordered, so it seems like its doing something right. I would not return, though. The staff were courteous and professional.

Professional and the food is really homecoming , the owner FABIO brings out the family side of fine dining to a whole new level and it makes coming back feel like going home to a family. Simply amazing Food

great quality food and service. atmosphere is just prefect not too loud, a nice ambience. staff is quick and efficient . overall great place. will definitely return !

This place is a hidden gem! Must experience the food!!!!!!

Best service from Rahma. Super good food!

Best place in Montréal

A big wow!!! First experience just perfect. Lucas service, the generosity of the boss, but above all, the flavor and quality of the dishes!!!! We will come back and refer our friends for sure.

Our waitress was excellent. We speak only English and she was great at explaining the menu, the food and made recommendations on different dishes. I had the appetizer she recommended,and when I chose my dinner she said great choice. Would definitely go back.

Excellent food service and very friendly staff

Please note that I am the messenger and the person who picked up the pizza yesterday. My friend always order a Margherita pizza with no basil since moving to St-Leonard in 2020. She was very impressed the first few occasions but lately the quality has been in decline. Yesterday was the worst one ever from La Bella Italiana plus the price has shot up to almost $20! Definitely not worth it! The sauce and cheese was all dried up like the kind of pizza you get from one of those cheap pizza joints! Ive attached a photo. Was there a change in cooks or ownership? She would give a zero out of ten on this pizza.

Great service, fast delivery of the food. The waitress was excellent. The food is really good and dont forget to have a nice gelato.

Best carbonara in town.

Best Italian restaurant Mama mia For the service, thank you very much for the server Jean Luca

Perfect for eating in a group! Friendly service, but a little disorganized. Tasty Italian food and generous portions!! Great location!

Delicious pizza with truly ADOC dough

Lovely place to visit with family or friends. Awesome ambiance and a must try if from out of town and in the area

super surprised this restaurant! wow! delicious, courteous and fast service!

We had heard the rumor that it was lone of the beatin Montreal... well its not a rumor... its a fact. The pasta was also sublime. Triple AAA service. The extraordinary atmosphere, generous portions. Excellent service from Fabio

One of my favorite restaurants, very professional and welcoming server, always a pleasure to eat there.

Always excellent

best place to go for a weekend meal! couldn t recommend it more! came here with my friends and had the best time!!

Super nice Italian restaurant. Super good food and impeccable service

We decided to give a,try to this new place . We placed an order via Doordash and unfortunately the pizza came cold. Very disappointed, it had to be heated again. The taste was ok though,not sure if we will give it a try again.

Excellent service. Superior food. Reasonable price Parking: The area is not that busy it is quite easy to park

Always delicious and great service!

Great pasta and excellent cannot as well

Really solid fried squid! The pizza is very good, thin crust not dry, well garnished! A big 9/10

GO YOUR WAY!! POOR service, staff at a very amateur level, we ordered pizzas that were supposed to be authentic but the result was very disappointing, no flavor, dull atmosphere, rude servers, nothing was there, really very disappointed, I dont understand the positive opinion of others, basically GO YOUR WAY!!

Great recommendation, excellent service, very tasty starter and main course

Great discovery, tasty dishes, excellent service.

This is the only Italian restaurant I go to. The food is incredible, The service is amazing, and The staff is amazing! Great atmosphere, cozy and great with the kids!

Good typical Italian restaurant, lively atmosphere on weekends and attentive service. Gelato counter in the entrance.

Very good Caesar salad, with crisp prosciutto instead of anchovies. Good, wood fired pizza.

Best restaurant ever with the best service ever Luca he is the best I will go over and over again

This place is amazing! Not only are the prices reasonable and the food amazing but the staff go above and beyond to make it a memorable experience! Would 100% recommend, it was a highlight of our trip

Super nice experience it was the first time I went to this restaurant, I recommend to everyone
