Bella Maria

We were driving by and popted into the pub across the road as wanted food but the kitchen was closed due to a extractor fan not working we saw the Italian restaurant and my hubby went to see if availability there was just one table left for 2 it was very busy as I recon many who went to the pub came here for dame reason the waiting staff were excellent the young girl waiting on us was running around clearing tables serving food answering the phone and assisting customers coming in she was so professional nothing phasing her I said your doing a great job she said its crazy busy I said maybe you've got a few extra from the pub due to kitchen closed ahh she said is that why oh I hope you have enjoyed your food and will come again when it's not so crazy busy infact the food was excellent so we will be back .

Visited their newly opened restaurant at the capitol centre. The food was delicious and the room was lovely and toasty and warm - unfortunately now nolonger the norm in all restaurants! The manager is obviously doing a good job overseeing things but I'd like to see the waitresses a little more relaxed. Look forward to their Broughton restaurant reopening with the same quality food. Thank you 🎄

We enjoyed our dinner at Bella Maria, the food was good quality. I would recommend getting at least two dishes per person as the portions run small but it is tapas after all. My critique is the same as previous reviews. The tapas is Italian tapas? It was a little confusing but still delicious. The service was great, there’s a 10% automatic service charge on the bill which we don’t typically do in Britain but I didn’t mind too much as it was good service.

Well quite a pleasant early dinner really! So the food is excellent, the young staff really knowledgeable and could not help more. The waitress dealing with us was exceptional! I hope they pay her well. The restaurant itself if clean and fairly minimalist. I spotted the excellent clay pizza oven. Proper job ! My only negative is this... They have their countries mixed up. Tapas and pealla? In Italy? And they didn't have traditional full plate Italian dishes at all?? All Tapas style small plates. I found that odd and rather unexpected, never the less it was really nice.

Was very busy Friday night. Waited 25 minutes to get a drink. Wrong drinks came and I think maybe the bar staff need to check the cocktail ingredients. The food was delicious and lots of it, and so much choice on the menu. The manager was lovely and apologised for the service. Would not put me off going again as the service is usually very good.
