    Side Mashed Potato with veggies
    Greg P.

    Outstanding dinner at Bella's tonight. Food, service & atmosphere were simply perfect. My wife started with a Caprese Salad which she loved with fresh local tomatoes. I started off with two meatballs and Ceaser Salad. Both were delicious. For dinner I had a wonderful Baked Stuffed Shrimp with a Ritz Cracker stuffing. I made the mistake of not getting a side of pasta instead of the mashed potatoes with veggies as a side though. My wife had Gnocchi which she also enjoyed. We were having a such a wonderful time we both got dessert. I had Carrot Cake and my wife got the Lemon Cheesecake which were both delicious. Overall a fantastic dinner and we will definitely be back! Ask for David or Lori who helped us In the beginning . Both were awesome!!!

    Bruschetta
    Samantha J.

    We attended a family gathering here a bit ago and were sitting in a semi private area with dedicated wait staff. The servers were very friendly and attentive. We had a pre selected menu that was at each of our seats. The apps were calamari and bruschetta which were both very good. We had the choice of salad. The caprese salad was a large serving and very fresh. We had a choice of multiple dishes for dinner. Portions were large so you could have a good meal to take home for later! The vodka pasta was good and they had bread & butter on the table as well. They have a ton of desserts to choose from and everyone had a good reaction to what they ordered. Their espresso martini was also very good!

    Food: supreme Service: your delight is all their intent Ambiance: clean; romantic; classic The Chef has been here for many seasons. The consistency and quality are undeniable.

    Tiramisu
    Matthew V.

    The outside of the restaurant does not do justice to the inside. We felt a little under dressed even though the waiter said not at all. The staff were very friendly and very quick, and there were a good amount of servers on staff. The food was delicious, awesome local Italian option! The chicken parm was light and the cheese was smooth, topped off with a tasty red sauce. We had a tiramisu for dessert, very light texture and smooth, great end to the meal! The prices are a higher than your average Italian restaurant, but we both thoroughly enjoyed everything we ordered. Worth it I think

    Caesar with anchovies
    Betsy G.

    Wow! Service was immaculate, Josh was our server. He was as attentive, personable, patient and just all around awesome. They bring some yummy bread to your table and some olive oil for starters. We then ordered the calamari, it was lightly breaded with great flavor and the perfect texture. Their Caesar salad is so great hands-down, one of the best ones in Rhode Island (besides stadium pub) They also give you the option of having anchovies in your salad. I think it balances it perfectly since the Caesar dressing is rich and the saltinesses adds something very nice to it. The main course however, speechless. The Gamberi Cardinale is officially my favorite pasta, I got it with the linguini. It has a sweetness to it that is addictive, it's creamy, flavorful and the pasta absorbs the flavors that... just do your self a favor and order it. Thank you for this great experience. We will be back

    I've been dying to try this restaurant after seeing reviews and finding out it's chef owned (yes!)…read more We had reservations on a recent Saturday afternoon at 3pm. The restaurant is small (only seats 48) so reservations are recommended. The restaurant is cozy and comfortable, there wasn't very many people while we were there so I'm not sure how loud it gets when busy. They have a full bar so I ordered a drink and my husband loves his craft beers and they had a few (but he always prefers if they have a beer menu so he can read the beer description). For appetizers we ordered shrimp cocktail and the meatball. The shrimp and sauce were delicious, and the meatball was HUGE (we almost could have a meal with that!!! The meatball came with lots of sauce and ricotta with 2 toasted bread slices (we devoured every bit!). For dinner we shared 2 entrees, we got the seafood casserole which came with choice of side (we picked baked potato) and a vegetable medley, and the southern fried pork chops that came with mashed potatoes and brussel sprouts. The food was so delicious we ate what we could and had to bring food home. Our server was excellent and very knowledgeable of the menu. This was one of the best places we've tried in a while. We eat out at least weekly and most places we don't go back for a second visit, but Lucky Dog Tavern will definitely stay on our rotation of places we love.

The food was great and portions were HUGE! Definitely able to share mains. Love the soup and salad bar!! The wait staff was nice, one waitress wasn't the best forgetting multiple times what we had asked for and she was getting upset by the kids in the room, but otherwise everyone else was great. Overall though would love to go back to eat in the main room.

But it fell flat…read more First off, this place is very close to Stadium and yes we were headed to a show. we had a reservation for 10 people. Our waited was a pretty nice guy. Young, energetic and comical. He rolled with our punches. Unfortunately we found the service to be slow and I think it had more to do with the kitchen as the waited was attentive. The salad bar was a little pathetic looking. I LOVE a salad bar but I just couldn't pull myself to move in that direction based off of looks. The guys I was with thought the low bar looking like the place to be and were intrigued by it. What I mean by low bar is there are two bars. One in the main dining area and another off to itself and recessed in. I had bruschetta and chicken parm. The bruschetta was tiny chopped tomato's and onions. It was pretty mushy and just too much actual food shoved on toast. We let the last piece meet the trash. Nobody at the table was interested in it. I had the chicken parm. Nothing special. True score: 2.5

I can only imagine how much better it is when the zoo is open and you can see the animals! This restaurant is part of Southwick Zoo. The brunch is offered for a limited time, seasonally. From the breakfast staples like eggs, sausage, bacon, home fries, to crème brulee French toast and waffle station, an omelet station, all of the bagels and breakfast breads, and lunch options from chicken & sausage marsala, mashed potatoes and even baked haddock... there was something for everyone. Save room for the dessert station which had ooey gooey cinnamon rolls, cheesecake, cookies, mousse and so much more. Today they were offering a special Bloody Mary where we got the glass to take home. My husband couldn't resist! Waitstaff was attentive (thanks, Meagan!) and the environment was cozy but spacious. We'll be back for lunch or dinner soon!

If we felt the service appropriately deserved it, that is what we would have given. Servy is extremely slow. Last time we sat at a table for 10 minutes before the bartender asked us if a waitress had come to us, and then another 5 minutes to get one. With the overpriced menu, we would expect better service and certainly don't expect someone to override the tip we gave. My advice is to pay cash here if you want to make sure you are paying what you wanted to pay. Keep your receipt and watch, if you give 15%, they make their own adjustments. So, I give a 3star
