Bella gusto, or beautiful taste in Italian, lives true to its name! The pizza is wood fired and hand made to order. We came here for a late lunch and shared some calamari and the veggie supreme pizza.
The calamari was quite good, a delightful and tender portion of seafood with lightly crisp batter. It was a generous amount and just right for two. The veggie pizza was filled to the brim with vegetables and rich creamy house-made mozzarella but the thing I loved the most about the pizza was the perfect balance of crisp, light crust with a soft chewiness when you bit into it. The only slight negative I had was that it was slightly oversauced which made it hard to taste the other ingredients in the pizza. Note that each pizza you order is the same size, 14", so you can plan your meal accordingly.
We ended our meal with gelato and what was touted as affogato but when I got my dessert it was basically a brownie a la mode with espresso poured on top. Now, technically affogato means "drowned" in Italian, so sure, this dessert was indeed "drowned" in espresso, but usually an affogato is a shot or two of espresso in a cup with gelato mixed into it. This was more like an "upside down affogato" I suppose :). The dessert was a large portion but the brownie was a bit too sweet for me and it was a little hard to incorporate the espresso into it since it was straight liquid espresso and not a sauce you can easily scoop with the ice cream and brownie.
Service was good and we were checked on as needed.
I'll definitely be back for more pizza if I'm in the area.
