   I had a reservation at 8:45 PM but wasn’t seated until 9:10 PM. We placed our order at 9:20 PM, and after waiting 40 minutes, we had to ask about our food. When it finally arrived an hour later, both our appetizers and main courses were served at the same time, despite specifically requesting that the appetizers come first. The lack of organization and long wait times made for a disappointing experience.

   We ordered some appetizers to start with. The waitress asked if we wanted to go ahead and order lunch too. I said sure, but I don't want the lunch to come out immediately after the appetizer comes out. She agreed but of course that's exactly what happened. Food was very salty as well.

   Love the Italian sodas and classic food. A perfect place to eat in Glendale.

   I moved to Glendale three years ago and La Bella has been on my list to try the whole time. Came here with my family on New Year’s Day, thankfully they were open. We were seated immediately and the service was great (we were probably one of four parties seated). We ordered the La Bella Salad, meatballs, and two pizzas - the Funghi Misti and Alla Salsiccia - they were all so good. I order meatballs at every Italian restaurant I go to, and this was up there. Ordered the lasagna, carbonara, and papardelle with short rib. The lasagna was perfect, carbonara was very rich, and the papardelle short rib was SO GOOD - not too fatty, lots of meat. Definitely my favorite one so far. I was so full I could not finish the carbonara. The host/owner noticed and told us they are making a fresh carbonara for us to pack and take home. Totally took us by surprise, but we were grateful. Have already recommended others to try and will definitely be back again.

   Our server was always on the phone. Brought appetizers and dinner at the same time. Coffee after we finished dessert. The food was delicious though

   Restaurant is clean. We were a party of 4. We ordered 2 salads and our main courses thinking we would split each salad between two but when the salads came they were so large that each one would be enough for the 4 of us. The waitress should have let us know and we could have ordered another appetizer. Big mistake on her part. My main course was very good. I had the Casarecce which I enjoyed. My wife had the Fettuccine which was bland and not very good. The other two dinners were a ribeye that was not tender and tasted a bit sour and the last item was their La Bella salad with salmon. Way too much salad on the plate. Garlic bread was just plain sliced bread with garlic spread you would make at home. Nothing special. Overall, not a good experience and not worth the price. Best item was the Barolo I brought from home.

   My wife and I enjoyed our meal at La Bella Pinseria Romana. The food was filling and the outdoor setting was nice and quite.
