Brilliant service! Excellent food that couldn't be faulted and 2 very happy adults! It was a perfect date night and we were looked after soo well.
Looking forward to returning!
Good value for money
First time here after trying to get booked in with the family for a couple of months.
Was it worth it? Hell yeah!
The premises is small(hence the booking in advance for more than 2 people) and very cosy but that adds to the charm of this restaurant.
The staff are awesome 👌 very welcoming, very professional, efficient and very friendly. All what you need in restaurant staff.
The food? Well then.. thats the best bit. HUGE portions(don't be tempted to go ott on sides) and the quality and taste is stunning. You won't be disappointed.
Definitely recommended and we can't wait to go back again .

Visited after years of hearing great things about this place. We were not disappointed. You must book in advance, sometimes two or three months in advance for Friday and Saturday nights. We booked six weeks in advance for 5pm on a Sunday. We were first to arrive but by 6pm the restaurant was already full. We skipped the starters to save room for the steaks. We all had steak, ribeye, fillet and sirloin. All cooked to our liking. With sides of Diane sauce, onion rings, broccoli and chips but be warned the side portions are quite large. Service was brilliant and atmosphere was really good too. We ll definitely be back.
A lovely little restaurant that does amazing steaks. Sides were very nice too and staff were very friendly. We knew the place was popular so booked our table well in advance.
Best steaks we have had, really enjoyed the food here
We have never been before but rocked up at opening time (5pm) to see if we could get a table. We were lucky they could squeeze us in. Portions are massive and fantastic quality!!

By far the best steak in town, I rate this restaurant over miller and carters by a country mile. The restaurant is very well priced and the steaks always come out how you want them cooked. Plus the cuts are clearly larger than stated the photo is an 8oz rump. Then you order the sides separately but these are large too so one side can be shared. Advise the saute potatoes they are awesome. Will definitely be returning lots more. The staff are also very accommodating.
Bellapais first opened in the mid 1970's essentially as a family run Cypriot
Restaurant offering authentic Greek and Cypriot dishes along with a range of
steaks cooked in the traditional Cypriot method of charcoal grilling, this soon
earned Bellapais the reputation of being one of the finest steakhouses around.
Taken over by the current owner in 1992 the Restaurant is still a family run
business, the chefs have a vast experience of steaks and sauces and the Cypriot
dishes are cooked from the traditional recipes handed down from the original
owners.
We had a wonderful meal in this delightful little restaurant. We were warmly greeted by our server and shown to a candle light table near the kitchen.
The decor is fabulous, the staff are very smartly dressed and it certainly has a very relaxed atmosphere.
The food was absolutely incredible and the portion sizes were huge, although it was very reasonably priced.
The staff were fantastic and very friendly, when they realised it was my birthday they even brought me out a cake!
I would absolutely recommend to anyone who enjoys a good steak or an authentic Greek dish.
I have dined at Bella Pais twice now and I can't fault the food, service and atmosphere here.
On both occasions, the food was absolutely delicious and the portions were very generous.
I would highly recommend you try Bella Pais, but make sure you book a table as it's very popular (and for good reason)!
Best steak I've ever had, love the quirky interior design highly recommend for a celebration dinner out.
