Bella Italia delivers consistently great pizza. I've been going there for over a decade and have never been disappointed!

Bella Italia is one of those places that you grow to love more every time you go. The pizza was above average the first time I had it, but after going back a few more times it became even more enjoyable. There is definitely character to the place. If you're looking to go to a restaurant that's nice, this is not the place to go. As soon as you walk in they're selling six packs and 40's... not a real classy look. And then if you have to go to the bathroom you have to pay a quarter... not a really classy feel to it. As for the pizza... I feel that the dough's the best part. They also don't add too much cheese on their pizzas, which makes it a lot less greasy then your typical pizza joint.(good thing in my opinion) Pizza's very consistent. Great choice if you just wanna grab a quick meal or a decent six pack. I'm a fan read more

When I am craving a delicious Sicilian or New York Style Pepperoni slice, Bella Italia is my go to pizzeria. Friendly family owned atmosphere with the best pizza and steaks on the Mainline. read more

Bella Italia is sooo delicious! They are keeping customers safe during the pandemic with excellent protocols. The pizza is my very favorite in all of the main line and northwest Philly. Teenagers and adults love this pizza. Excellent service and delicious food for very fair prices. Highest recommendation! read more

Maria is like an Italian sister and the family is lucky to have her so involved!!! She is the reason I go there and recommend others do as well. She sticks to small talk as she oversees the shop. They order the highest quality ingredients and the Dano is an ace. Thank God for Bella Italia!!! read more

Stopped in over the weekend to give this place a try, thought I would start out with 2 slices to be safe. I must say this was the best pizza I have tasted in quite some time. The sauce was the star here, very good flavor which added to the cheese and the delicious crust. $3 bucks per slice of plain, but I wont bitch about price because it was worth it in my honest opinion. As far as the owners.... what you read in the reviews is correct! So if you are looking for good conversation you will not get that here. Kind of felt like a Soup Nazi vibe when I walked in....I had there attention right away and I got the feeling they do not like for people to take there time with the menu or ask alot of questions with the order. This did not bother me because most times I am not looking for annoying, superficial conversation anyway, just good food. The restaurant appeared clean and had a variety of pizza for take-out along with a good beer selection. My next trip I plan on trying out the cheesesteak and fries but so far I can attest to the fact that you cant go wrong with the pizza thats for sure. I plan on returning very soon. I highly recommend this place. read more

I love this place. Great cheese steaks and pizza with a down to earth feel. Buy local. Support the community. Embrace the culture. And appreciate diversity. read more

Quick Review- AWESOME slices of pepperoni and plain. Cheese is perfect, crust is thin. I will go back again for sure. I also heard the cheese steaks and cheese steak pizzas are excellent. read more

I have not been here in a while. The last time I went was 2014 ordered a Cheesesteak from here it was great. There is free parking in the lot and also many items and specials on there menu. Definitely worth a try this spot. read more

Worst customer service ever, wish I could give zero stars. Avoid specials, they just make them cheap. Italian lady/owner refused to give me the Monday/Tuesday cheese pizza special for $12.95, because she did not hear me specify when ordered (probably because she hung up on me the second I finished ordering). She quoted, "We made these pizza's with all the cheese, you pay full price". She then refused to honor the $13.95 website price, insisting I pay $15.95 per pizza. Even if you get the special price, she will refuse credit and only accept cash, oblivious to the $0 minimum credit charge on website or $6 min posted in store. Extremely rude on all accounts, she could really care less about customer service or just being nice in general as a decent human being with a soul. read more

You won't find a better slice of pizza and a friendlier staff than at Bella Italia. Bella Italia has implemented a pick up window where customers can grab their food and leave with ease. Love this place! read more

Beat pizza on the planet! The service is second to none. This is classic NY style Neapolitan pizza. Hand made. Fresh. You will NOT be disappointed promise. read more

Will never go into this place again. It has gone way downhill the past few years. Way overpriced and rude help.

We get delivery here a lot and it always arrives quickly and hot. It's definitely one of my favorite places for pizza. Their cheesesteaks, fries, wings, and mozzarella sticks are always great as well. Perfect place for football Sunday delivery. read more

You can't go wrong with a slice from Bella. I've lived in Ardmore for two years and have tried other pizza in the area. None come close to Bella Italia. The owner works every day and is a nice man. The pizza is no gimmick with a lot of flavor. If you go and eat-in you can usually catch a soccer game on TV. They also have a half decent take out selection of beer too. read more

Awesome pizza! Expect some NYC-style service here. Not the friendliest, but who cares when the pizza is so awesome? When I first moved to Philadelphia, a young girl on the train told me this was where to go. Thank goodness for her!! read more

Very good pizza. Not always the fastest service but they're really nice and just super busy.

Their menu is quite extensive for a corner pizza shop and the food hits the spot. Prices are reasonable and quite competitive with Ardmore Pizza, just around the corner. I prefer Bella Italia when I'm looking for a quick take out meal, but am ALWAYS disappointed with the owner's poor customer service. Many other employees have been kind, but she has made me rethink wanting to come back several times. She's very abrupt on the phone (I realize English is a second language, but she's rude) and seems very passive when we visit. I feel I'm not welcomed there and it's cause for taking away a star. read more

I've been going here for probably more then a decade now, and it is still consistently the best pizza place around. The price per slice seems to be pretty regular for the Ardmore area, so I don't know what other people were complaining about. Everyone who works there is friendly, and they know what I am going to order when I am calling it in, mainly because I get the same thing every week. read more

As opposed to others, I have never had a bad pie, here. The Old Guys that run the joint are brusque,but, I've experienced worse in my life. Sorry, Folks, can't nit-pick. I'll return soon. read more

Came here after a show at the Ardmore Music Hall. Thought pizza sauce was zesty and good. We also liked the crust. It was thin crust. I will come back. Owners were nice.Bathroom was clean. Pizza was good. (also have thick crust - Italian style Sicilian Pizza)..yum. They also sell a good selection of Beer and have other foods: sandwiches, calzones, strombolis, salads, italian foods and fried platters. Fri and Sat open late until Midnight. Sunday till 10pm. read more

First and last visit to this place! I was craving a pepperoni pizza and my usual spot was closed for the evening so I went here. First off I ordered a SMALL pizza... They didn't bother to tell me they only have M and L. $14.95 for a M pizza is outrageous and I should have just walked out! Absolutely nothing special and what a waste as I only ate 1 slice!! Never again! Ever! read more

Been coming here for years. Their pizza is the best in Ardmore. My whole family loves their pizza. I often get their eggplant parmesan sandwich. read more

Love their pizza ! Amazing pizza to grab when hopping off the train from work ! Beer & pizza who wouldn't be interested

Our go-to pizza place in Ardmore. My kids love it. Sometimes they overcook the pizza a little so if you don't like that make sure you mention to undercook it a little when you order. Can't comment on anything else because we always get pizza to go. read more

My favorite pizza place. Whenever I come back east the owner is super sweet and helps me take slices to go. There just isn't pizza like this in California... read more

This place grosses me out a bit. Cool to grab a six pack (but why would you when there's a craft beer shoppe a few blocks away), but the food is questionable. I say that because I've seen bugs here and the food is not good unless you're starving. read more

so much better than peace of -pizzza, pizza hut, dominos and all that other stuff (though I do enjoy the fatty garlic butter dippin sauce that papa john's has..) this pizza is delish. It's a fun place to hang out, eat a couple slices and just chill. I was introduced to bella italia by my cuz who's from the area, and I thank him for him sharing where you can get a decent slice on the mainline... read more

Found this place only recently. This is my new favorite pizza in the area. They make their own dough each day and you can tell. Great crispy crust - not soggy. The owners are always there and are great. I haven't tried the rest of their menu so I can't comment there. Plus, you can get a six pack to go - which is nice. read more

This place all in all isn't bad. The food, I agree would be on the greaser side but very tasty! The service is a non nonsense, what u see us what u get type of place but once the owners get to know you they are very friendly. I would recommend the cheese steaks here, especially the buffalo chicken cheese steak. It is fantastic. read more

Perfect location when you're going to a show at the Ardmore Music Hall. We went with a slice of cheese and a calzone. The marinara is quite yummy, and the pizza was standard. Nothing amazing but you can't beat the convenience for a quick dinner before a concert across the street. read more

Thin NY style pizza is authentic to NY & affordable. Great choice for just a slice. Recommend.

If you order a whole pie, the pizza is excellent. 5 stars for that. However, when ordering slices, beware. Twice now I have been fooled. A new, fresh white pizza was displayed on the pizza shelf. I asked for a slice, but instead of cutting into the fresh pie, the guy reaches under the counter and gives me an old, dried out slice, probably from the previous day. The first time it happened, I let it go, The second time it happened, (and it was served by the manI assume is the owner) I said no more, there are plenty of other pizza places in the area. read more

I don't understand these reviews or maybe I don't understand pizza. I've eaten here several times and I think the pizza is kinda bland. Nice people and good beverage selection. Open late. read more

Bella Italia is one of the better pizza places in the Lower Merion/Ardmore area. When I was living on campus at Saint Joseph's University my friends and I drove to this place knowing it was always going to be decent--it's better than Toni Ronis or Dominos that's for sure. I usually get a slice of Sicilian or slice of white pizza. There are definitely better pizza places in Philadelphia, but that doesn't stop me from going into Bella Italia whenever I'm in Ardmore. The pizza comes out fast, and you can also buy alcohol. read more

While the chicken parmesan sandwich is decent (but nothing special), the Sicilian pie (simply as tomato pie or with cheese) is absolutely delicious. While I prefer Felicia's, another Sicilian pizza place just a minute's walk from Bella Italia, I enjoy stopping in for a slice once in a while. read more

Great place! What a local corner pizzeria should be. Great pizza. Beer to go. Pizza is always ready when you call in a takeout order. Its not fancy, nothing crazy, just great pizza. read more

been eating a lot of shitty pizza on my search for one close to a new york slice. this place is the best one i've come across and the employees are very nice :) read more

Good New York style pizza. Food is made quickly and prices are reasonable. This is primary a take out location. Staff is friendly.

Closest thing to NYC pizza..Im a NYC transplant and it tastes like home. the owner is from Italy via Brooklyn NY..He knows how to make real pizza..and yes you pick it up and it eat it..not cut it with a fork and knife.. read more
