| - Our first trip to Bella Roma tonight was outstanding. Very affordable prices for wine and food. We started off our meal with a salad. We split the Bocconcini salad for $5.95. This set the mood. The salad was full of mixed fresh greens, not iceberg, but real fresh greens. They added diced fresh mozzarella cheese. Yes that is correct, FRESH mozzarella cheese! They also had cheery tomatoes and basil. For a dressing they used lemon juice and extra virgin olive oil. It was delicious! Very light, fresh and very tasty. The red wine was only $3.50 a glass, that is a deal in today's market. For dinner we enjoyed a pizza. They have both 16" (Medium) and 20" (Large) pizzas. We choose a Medium (16") Marghetia pizza ($12.95), that included tomato sauce, mozzarella and fresh basil. We added sauage for $.75. The crust was nice and light, not too thin and not too thick for our taste. Not a lot of sauce, just enough, and that was fine with us. The waitress had us try their bread with our salad and that was very good. The bread would work well with extra virgin olive oil or to wipe your pasta bowl after eating all the pasta. Speaking of pasta, we will be back to try their pasta and dinner entrees. Pasta is $8.95 for a large bowl, your choice of pasta and sauce. From what we observed, the pasta dinner was generous and good (the table next to us cleaned their bowls). The dinner entrees are a nice selection of Italian favorites, including steak, chicken and veal dishes. Overall, the dinning experience was outstanding and we will be back!
