This establishment is great! During the day it's a nice a spot to grab lunch with a friend or loved one and at night it can also be a romantic atmosphere to enjoy a delicious meal with your partner. I unfortunately forgot our server's name, but she was incredibly nice throughout our visit and accommodating when we wanted to switch tables due to a slight strobe effect from the ceiling fan during sundown. Lasagna - cheesy! Fettuccine Alfredo - delectable! Prime Rib (Special) - Yuuuum!!! A special note about the Alfredo sauce: It is made to order, which is to say they don't make the sauce until the dish has been ordered so it is always fresh and hot, oh, and it's SO GOOD! I almost forgot: The bread pudding is the BEST I EVER HAD!!! I honestly think it stole the show from the also delicious tiramisu. I honestly can't wait to come back the next time I'm in Arizona. read more

Very nice quiet place. Decorated with Italian memorabilia. Ordered the eggplant parmigiana. Came with a side of angel hair pasta with marinara sauce. The eggplant was very good. Thinly sliced with seasoned breading. The pasta wasn't so good. It came out a mushy. I rather have the al dente texture. The sauce was average. I liked it but not enough to come back. It was kinda expensive for the quality of the food. Pretty average. read more

Bella Luna Ristorante - Eggplant parmigiana - Italian Near Me - Goodyear, Arizona

I have been dining at Bella Luna for quite a few years and honestly have never had a bad experience. We have always been welcomed upon arrival and never hat to wait long for a table. the decor is elegant with a touch of mom and pop. The patron's tend to be more of the senior group, so the atmosphere is quiet and reserved. While I do like other Italian eateries in the area, Bella Luna comes in at the top for their authentic, pleasing food. While waiting for your meal, they bring a warm crunchy tray of bread to your table. It alone is really good, but even better with the balsamic and vinegar. For my main course, I have a hard time passing up their spaghetti and meatballs. Extra cheese please! I really think theirs is more pleasing and authentic than most others. The sauce is perfect. My wife usually gets the eggplant parm. We have never had a disappointing meal. Want something other than pasta. Their steak is pretty good too. I wouldn't hesitate to return to Bella Luna when in the mood for real-deal Italian and a quiet, pleasant atmosphere to enjoy my food in. read more

Bella Luna is easily one of the most underrated spots in the area--and honestly, I love that for them. It feels like one of those places you can pop into anytime... because somehow they're always open when you need them Between the cozy indoor dining, warm lighting, and that super cute patio with string lights and desert views , the vibe is effortlessly relaxed but still gives classic Italian charm. It's the kind of place that works for everything--casual lunch, low-key dinner, or even a spontaneous meet-up. Service? Consistently GREAT. Attentive without hovering, and super accommodating when it comes to dietary preferences. If you're vegan or plant-based, you can absolutely make this menu work. Pro tip: go for a primavera penne with olive oil + fresh veggies and just omit the cheese--simple, clean, and hits every time. The bread service came out hot (as it should ) and paired with olive oil & balsamic... immediate win. And the happy hour caponata? DELISH. Flavorful, slightly tangy, and perfect for sharing (or not lol). Everything landed solid across the board--but I have to laugh... the only thing that threw me off were the straws like full-on red 44oz gas station vibes. Totally out of place for the aesthetic and my glass--but honestly, it just made the experience more memorable. Overall: great food, great service, super versatile spot. One of those dependable go-tos that deserves way more hype. read more

Oh my Bella, where have you been my whole (Arizona) life? All I can say is the food here is very, very good and my compliments to the chef. We started with the Cheesy Garlic bread and I would recommend this as you won't be disappointed. The bread was fresh, warm and the cheese was melted nicely on the bread After taking her first bite of the piccata, my wife said it was the best CP she has ever had. All she could say was "Omg, Omg, Omg...". Well you get the point. The piccata sauce was savory and topped off with capers. It complimented the chicken perfectly. My wife already wants to go back. Hack: My wife ordered the pasta without sauce but with Olive Oil and garlic. It was outstanding!!! I had the Chicken Parmesan and my question is, how can they make the chicken so tender? I mean it was really, really tender. The kind of tender you would expect from a high-end Italian restaurant in North Boston (see my Boston north end reviews). Try the CP if you are craving chicken parmesan. We finished with a tray of three small Cannolis and they too reminded us of the North End of Boston. Like Arnold said, "We will be back!". read more

I am so bummed. We decided to go out with our daughter last night and Bella Luna was a place we'd been wanting to try. We were greeted by a hostess and seated pretty quick, but man it went downhill fast. After nearly 5-10 minutes of sitting being ignored by who we realized was our waitress a man came over and offered some waters and started to take our drink order. I think he saw we were a bit frustrated. After hearing them chat a second he became the waiter. Unfortunately it didn't get better. Our bread and drinks finally arrived, but we again were left ignored an extended time before we ever saw him to take our food order. There was an elderly couple who had been in the restaurant when we arrived who also seemed frustrated by the wait for food and service. My husband wanted to leave, but I tried to reassure him that it wouldn't be much longer.. Boy was I wrong. We arrived a little after 8pm by the time we got our food it was nearly 930. My husband was mad and my daughter was half asleep. Service was atrocious. There was no apologies. Food was just OK. My husband, my daughter and I didn't even finish our meals. For the prices you think they would care. I did notice they were quite attentive to what seemed to be regulars, but for the elderly couple behind us, our table among a few others, it was like we are invisible. We'll never return two stars for the food.vibe was nice, but with service like that it's hard to care. read more

I really wanted to love Bella Luna -- I appreciate that it's family run and the ambiance is cozy and romantic, which makes for a lovely setting. Unfortunately, the food just didn't deliver for us. Everything we tried was very bland, almost like even the basics (like salt) were missing, and nothing stood out as exceptional. I hope they can bring more flavor into the dishes, because the atmosphere has so much potential. read more

What a great way to celebrate my birthday. I got their New York strip scampi special which was so delicious the veggies and everything was good.

Kasey is an excellent waitress. Very professional, attentive and friendly. Food was ok. loved the soft butter.

This is my first time to Bella Luna with my mom and the atmosphere is beautiful. Our server Isabel was very kind and welcoming. I accidentally ordered wrong and she immediately helped out. She made sure to check what I truly wanted and delivered exactly what I wanted. read more

The service was excellent. Unfortunately The food was awful. The eggplant parm was a very thin slice of mushy eggplant. Only tasted the overdone breadcrumbs and loads of cheese. The fettuccini was bland. The stuffed mushrooms tasted like a mushroom stuffed with dried breadcrumbs only. The bread was the best part of the meal. read more

Pasta was delicious but chicken parm was dry and overcooked. Wife's lasagna was mushy. Small portions.

This place came outta nowhere. It's in a corner of an unassuming strip mall near Litchfield Park. You'd drive right by it and never take a second look. But, get beyond the pinky-tan outer wall and it opens up to a beautiful, romantic patio with high walls. The inside is typical Italian restaurant, but I think the patio is the best. Good Italian food is always elusive. It's not easy to cook perfect pasta, to have homemade dressings, and to concoct a great marinara. But these are the hallmarks of a good Italian restaurant. It's not about "bottomless bread sticks." That's for pedantic gluttons. No, subtlety is the key here and Bella Luna is excellent. Start with crusty, rustic, housemade bread. It is top notch, and served with plain butter, as it should. The entrees here are winners, and all the classics are offered. In particular we loved the chicken picatta and the chicken Parmesan. Both were pounded ultra thin and were tender and flavorful, but subtle. The stars were the sauces. The picatta strikes a great balance with its buttery, capery, lemony bite, but it doesn't scream LEMONS! It's just right. The parm is equally good, with a beautiful breading on the chicken and a saucy, sharp marinara. They add Romano cheese which can be strong so I opt for mozzarella only, but it's your call. The pastas are all perfectly cooked. The marinara is a beautiful, tomato-rich but light sauce. Excellent. Salads are particularly good owing to Bella's house made dressings. The ranch is phenomenal, and the creamy Italian is a garlicky wonder. Just superb. My favorite part might be the bread pudding for dessert. Might be the best I've had; certainly in Arizona. The Tiramisu is particularly good as well. All Told, this is a great place for a quiet date on a spring evening. Excellent food that won't disappoint and will satisfy any craving for really good Italian. The service can be spotty, especially during snowbird season and weekends. But it's usually worth it once the food arrives. Give it a spin. And eat outside on the patios. Bellísimo! read more

I just had the worst dining experience of my life. Brought my Mother-in-law in for a Mother's Day dinner, we had a 6:30pm reservation and wasn't sat until 7pm. No worries- it was a busy evening. We were sat for 20 minutes before being greeted or offered water. We had to wait an additional 20 minutes to even get bread. We ordered drinks and soda eventually and sodas came flat. We told the server, she came back 15 minutes later saying they replaced the Co2 and sodas were still flat. Food came, was fine. My mother in law was so upset with the whole experience she ended up returning her meal and not eating. She ended the night in tears. We've all been to this restaurant before and have had pleasurable experiences but nobody came and gave us condolences or tried to reconcile. Incredibly disappointed read more

Went on mother's day and the menu was extremely limited. I ordered the chicken piccata and the portion size was RIDICULOUSLY SMALL. Felt like it was a kids meal and ate it in less than three minutes. I had to drive and get my self some chipotle after because I was still starving. read more

I always walk past this place to go to the froyo spot next door. Today God had something else planned for me, let's call a it a Devine intervention if you will. My car unexpectedly broke down right in front. While waiting for my roadside assistance I decided to pop in for some dinner. This was my first time eating alone EVER. All of the employees I interacted with were warm, and welcoming. Service was great. Ambiance was cozy and quiet, which I definitely needed after today's fiasco. It was the Monday-iest Monday ever. What I ordered: Fettuccine Alfredo with peas and pancetta-this was a very nice Alfredo. The sauce was so silky, nicely coated every noodle, and lovely light flavor. Compared to a very famous "Italian" restaurant, rhymes with "Smolive Darden", this puts that recipe to shame. It did not leave me feeling guilty, or like my arteries just clogged from a pound of butter and cream. It just needed a tad touch of salt for MY taste, however I will not dock any points like most people do. I respect a great recipe where you can adjust the salt to your preference. Bruschetta- the toasted bread was so lovely. It had a nice delicate crisp to it, but it retained its softness still which is a perfect balance for me. The tomato topping was fresh. It was a mild flavor, not exactly how I make it. I like to quite literally be punched in the face with onions and garlic. However, much respect to this recipe as well for keeping the ingredients simple and fresh. It was drizzled with a balsamic glaze. I am not sure if this balsamic is made in house, however it is BANGIN. I poured a little extra in the side with olive oil to soak my bread into it. Very yummy! For drinks I had a plain iced tea which was just how I like it and a water. Yes I know, it's "just water" but honestly you can tell a lot about a restaurant by the quality/taste of their water and this one was great. Price was well worth it and within a range I expected. They have a great happy hour with some discounted apps to grab as well which is awesome. I will be returning with my family and I will bug my man for a date night here so I can snag a piece of their tiramisu, my favorite dessert ever! Even though you don't know, thank you for turning my day around. I needed this little bit of peace to reset my day. read more

Good service, great food, and reasonable prices. Lasagna was awesome. Felt like eating a home-made meal that I didn't have to cook.

Bella Luna was okay. The service was lovely, but I found the Caesar Salad not bad. The pancetta and peas fettuccine Alfredo did not have enough pancetta and it was not rendered. The star of the show was dessert. I loved the warm and delicious Italian Bread pudding a La mode. For your birthday, they give you a generous slice of tiramisu!!! read more

Wow really glad I wasn't swayed by some of these bad reviews! We went here for a birthday dinner as the birthday boy insisted fettuccine Alfredo. He loved it by the way. So we went here. The place is super cute inside not well represented in the online pictures. It was very clean and tidy. Service was superb!!! The waiter was a pro and gentleman and was very good at his job. He was at the pace of people who dine and aren't really there to eat and scram. So do know that it seemed very intentional the pacing. The food was very tasty and they had some interesting dishes. I had scallops and shrimp risotto with broccoli rabe and prosciutto. Fantastic! We had appetizers, dinner, and a piece of really good tiramisu but by that point we were stuffed! We all took leftovers home that the waiter packed all of it and I love that. It was dare I say a class act. If you ordered cocktails there might have been a wait but the soft drinks and beer came out quick as would have wine. My suggestion is to be intentional about spending time with the people you go with and don't go starved and you'll have a lovely evening! We sat inside which was really nice but the outside for good weather would be ideal. It was a win all around!!! To our waiter- I believe Isaac you are a star thankyou!!! read more

Bella Luna always has 5 Star service and cuisine. The prices are reasonable and the surroundings are comfortable to enjoy a relaxing evening. I especially love their chicken parmigiana. I would recommend them for great authentic Italian cuisine. read more

Giving this four stars because the food here is actually very good. It's always clean, but could use a little updating, and the prices are too high. The service is lacking in my opinion. I've been a few times with my family, and a couple times on my own, it's always the same, slow and impersonal. With the exception of the older Sicilian lady, who is often there, pretty sure she is the owner, i'm making the assumption that she is Sicilian, I usually can tell by the accent. I like her, she doesn't wait on us as she is the owner(I think), but she has talked to us a few times. You don't find a lot of really good Italian around here, so I can appreciate the time they take to make this food delicious. read more

We went out for a date night, but after we arrived, a family of seven was served before us. Our waitress rarely came to check on us, and we had to wait an extended time for bread and water. We ordered an antipasto board, which was disappointing, and it seemed like the waitress was more attentive to another couple seated directly in front of us. Since we had to leave without receiving our food, the manager did not apologize and still charged us for the antipasto board, which I think should have been waived. read more

We have been coming here for years for lunch. Today was a big disappointment. Ordered Mrs. B's Dirty Martini. Our server was underage so he couldn't make the martini. Waited for the other server to make martini, which she did find time when she got through serving her customers. Had 2 martini's, both were very weak and not very dirty. Teesy tiny olives without stuffing. Lunch menu was extremely weak. Ordered off dinner menu, entree only no soup or salad. I had to send back my Veal Marsala. The veal and spaghetti was barely warm. Bread is always delish. Love the ambience of the restaurant and the background music. Won't be coming back!!! read more

We came in and waiting to be sat. Just said 7 and 2 kids for the patio. The sever was extremely rude. Asked why we didn't make a reservation several times. Said it would be 30 min wait and it was ridiculous we didn't call ahead. When said it's ok then we'll leave and he said "ok good, you should have made a reservation" Shorter guy with glasses. There was one patio table and one dining room table. Left immediately with how rude he was. This was Sunday 1/18 at 2:35. read more

This is a great little place that's been there for 25 years! I had lasagna, which was amazing (just a little too salty for me), and she had the salmon and risotto, which was also excellent.
