We came to this restaurant as a group of 10 because we were recommended due to the nice ambiance of dining outside. The tree in the outdoor area was really nice and it was set up in such a magnificent way, except the hostess wouldn't let us sit there. It was really disappointment because she said only groups of 4 or less. We asked if we could split up, but for some reason that never happened even though there was plenty of empty tables (we came super early). So instead we sat on the deck area, which was not so nice. It started to rain and they had a retractable roof, that they pulled down which resulted in lots of leaves falling on my sister in law. The people working here are really nice and very friendly, but the food was overpriced for what it was. The food wasn't very good. It was really disappointment. I had pasta, my husband had a sausage type thing. The pizza was ok. The kids meals were normal kids meals. If you are coming here for the food, don't come. If you are coming for the ambiance, then come in a group of less than 4. :) read more

There's nothing quite as cozy as a bowl of clam chowder on a chily day, - or any day for that matter. Every spoonful was loaded with clams, and the chowder was exquisitely seasoned, spiked with bacon, and full of tender potatoes. Kudos to the Belle Union, her cooks, and waitstaff. They do an great job at a reaonable price. I'll be back! read more

Went there twice last week. Food is decent (not an American Italian food person) so the first night I had my pasta swimming in white sauce. The second night we were going to the Mexican place but the person on the phone had no clue how to do reservations. I ordered food that was better for me at Bella Union the second night. read more

Mediocre food. Hot inside. Cramped. A bit pricey for what you get. Not impressed. Service was pretty good though.

Like others, we also stopped in Bella Union after a beautiful hike in the Medford Oregon area. It was around 6:30PM. We were surprised the dining room was empty. We were initially seated at a very wobbly table. When we asked to move, the hostess seemed a bit irritated with us. However, the waiter was very friendly and had great energy. There was loud 90's alternative music coming from the bar area. It was a little loud for the dining room, but we like Alice In Chains and Nirvana, so no big deal. Our food was decent. The lasagna was 7/10 stars. The presentation of the chicken fettuccine was amazing, but the taste blah. The chicken wasn't fresh and had a rough texture. The bread we received wasn't fresh or warm. I wouldn't mind giving this place another try next time we're in town, but I will definitely try a different entree. read more

My friend and I were having a wonderful visit in Jacksonville. Adorable little historic town. We went to Bella Union for dinner one night. The atmosphere was great and the servers were amazing - polite, professional and fun. I asked a server about a Mediterranean salmon dish over linguine and he highly recommended it. It came with a Caesar salad which was delicious but had so much garlic it burned! Haha! Fortunately, I loved it and, this being October, I had no fear of vampires attacking me for a few days. The Salmon dish, sadly, was bland - with feta cheese, olive oil, and garlic I thought it would be amazing but it wasn't. I don't know if they didn't fully drain the pasta or what but even with lots of salt, pepper, and even some of my friends sauce, nothing helped it. Parts of the salmon were fresh, but parts were very fishy. Big disappointment. We didn't try any beverages or dessert. They did have entertainment which was a fun option. read more

Fun place even on lock down and winter....it's cozy the staff is great and attentive. Heaters are in place and not loud to be able to converse. read more

Good food, can accommodate vegan and gluten free. Fun atmosphere. Live bands on Saturdays. Beautiful outdoor area!

My daughter took me out for a birthday treat. On what's typically a "slow night" for restaurants (Monday), the food and drinks were surprisingly tasty. Our waiter, Eric, was cordial and attentive, and we lucked out with a quiet corner booth. The only drawback were the cloth napkins, which had the absorbency of stiff, scratchy curtains. (Poor choice on management's part!) read more

I live locally and have noticed that this dining establishment has really "upped its' game" in the last year. The food and service (get a seat at the bar if you can) are exceptional. This is one of the better restaurants in town. Their Pork Steak, Ribeye and seafood entrees are always quite good. And if you leave room for dessert, there's several offered for $8 or $9 that are quite good. read more

this is a restaurant that has created a niche for itself in the Rogue valley. They are not high-end, they are not anything pretentious, but, rather, they tend to have an upper blue-collar approach to consistently really good food. Tom is one of the hardest working chefs in the valley and Christian is one of the finest floor managers you will ever experience. Highly recommend this place for the ambience, the great food, the experience. read more

Unfortunately disappointed again. Went there once before and wasn't too happy with the food flavor. Decided to give it another chance and was equally disappointed in the food and price for the food. Ordered a pastrami sandwich that didn't have much flavor and ordered French onion soup as a side. The soup came topped with 3 (store bought out of a bag) croutons and tasted like chopped onions in onion soup mix. Not impressive at all the sand which looked good but NO flavor. I paid $15.00 dollars for that. Not worth price. Atmosphere is good and staff was very pleasant but the food is lacking and way too high of price for that kind of quality. My friend ordered eggs Benedict Brunch and was very disappointed in the over cooked eggs and flavorless meal as well. read more

Had lunch at the Bella Union yesterday and was very disappointed in the service. We were seated and got our water right away. Then watched 3 other tables seated and served before our orders were taken. We finally placed our orders and waited 45 minutes before my soup was delivered and another 15 minutes before the sandwiches were served. Expressed our concern to 3 wait staff and no one offered to make it right. Food was so so read more

I'm totally done bringing my out-of-town guests here. Honestly, it's embarrassing! Besides the ok beer selection and the nice patio, everything else just sucks .....yes, even the pizza. read more

Delicious food and fun ambiance! Kids' menu was better than the average. Enjoyed our experience.

80% of the menu is microwaved. The sauces are premade from cans. Go for the drinks and the pizza. Avoid anything else off the menu. read more

Beautiful patio. Very busy Sunday brunch but skyler did a wonderful job waiting on us... the food was delicious and the menu was diverse!!!

Bella is a great choice to go to in the Rogue valley. The specials are alway wonderful, the Cesar salad is great as is their house salad, pizzas and pasta. Have yet to find something I don't like. The cocktails are well made and they have a good beer and wine selection. Not often but when I have room the desserts are amazing. The service is always friendly and attentive. Go to Bella you will love it. read more

Had dinner last night on the patio. As always the atmosphere and the waite staff was wonderful. But the dinner .. . what a disappointment! I had the special: "Fresh Petrale Sole stuffed with bay shrimp etc. oven baked in a white wine butter sauce." What I received had obviously been frozen and reheated. The fish was mushy and the sauce was like water. The dish had absolutely no flavor. I did mention it to the waiter and he offered to get me something else but that's just not my style. I probably ate 2 bites of the fish, the pasta and veg which was squished on the plate under the bowl that they had served the fish in was not too appetizing. I did end up eating all of my Ceasar salad which was very good. We go there often and will continue to go but this diner was a big zero at $28.00! read more

I really like Bella Union for the ambiance and charm. I went here in April for Happy Hour and enjoyed it very much. Second time, just a couple days ago, we ordered pizza. It was not good. The crust reminded of a average frozen pizza. Very little sauce and not flavorful. I would like to come here again and maybe try an entree but may just stick to Happy Hour read more

The service was great, we were served our courses at a good rate, and everything we ate was amazing! Our only regret is that we didn't get the meatball sandwich which looked ridiculous! Very cool atmosphere too. read more

Don't use their catering service. They don't show up. When they do the food and presentation is very good. We've used them for monthly professional Board meetings. Since January they didn't show up 2x, even though they have our annual schedule. This is unacceptable. If we cancel on them without 72 hour notice we have to pay anyway. I should send them a bill for the two catering events they just didn't show up for. Do yourself a favor and don't waste your time with Bella Union Catering. read more

Never truly got the hype around Bella till I experienced the magic first hand. BEAUTIFUL ambiance, great pizza (pear with blue cheese? Get outta here delish.), and just a great place to sit and eat on a spring night/day/anytime. Trust your stomach, eat good pizza, live long. read more

the only good things about this place are the drinks and the patio. food sucks, don't waste your money.

Amazing food, music and atmosphere. We enjoy the pizza but also the pasta is great. Definitely a place I will go back for more.

We dined at Bella Union on a busy Saturday evening. We ate on the porch, which was really lovely. Inside seemed pretty loud, so I was happy to be seated outdoors. Even though the temperature was in the 90s outside, the patio is plant-covered so it felt cooler. Our server was attentive the whole evening and food was served quite promptly, especially considering how busy they were. We started with the sautéed mushrooms. They were really tasty, and the bread was so good dipped in the sauce. The Caesar salad was good, but I felt there was a little too much Parmesan over top. For an entree, I ordered the Prime Rib of Pork special. It came with veggies and potatoes. I really enjoyed the entree, but felt the cut of meat was quite fatty, so there wasn't actually much meat. Besides the specials, the menu is almost entirely pizza and pasta dishes. I was expecting slightly more meat variety, maybe a steak dish or chicken other than chicken Parmesan. If there wasn't a specials menu, there really would not have been much variety. Perhaps since I hadn't really researched, I had unrealistic expectations. Overall delicious, and I'll be back when I'm in the mood for pizza or pasta. read more

Freedom-loving restaurant. Highly recommended. We expected a wait on a Saturday night, but the wait was only about 30 min. Our server had a great personality, and was very accommodating. We had lasagna, which is honestly some of the best we've ever had. The sauce was meaty and had a delicious roasted pepper flavor. The filling was so cheesy! We also had a house salad which was huge and so fresh. For dessert we had creme brûlé and a Spanish coffee. The creme brûlée had a great flavor but was a little chewy on the bottom (not cooked quite right.). The Spanish coffee was like a Mexican mocha with rum. It was a little pricy but a delicious new experience. We definitely will eat here again. They have great food and are striving to offer great service to their customers. read more

Always a fun place to visit in Jacksonville. Historically significant building in a town originally developed based on a gold discovery. Pretty architecture all around reflecting the original look of the town. The Bella Union has an excellent menu with lots of choices. There are two different dining areas plus a full bar area and an outdoor patio. Good selection of area beers and wines along with the usual mixed drinks. Been here several times over several years and have never been disappointed with the food or service. It can get busy as it is fairly famous in a tourist town. read more

Visiting friends and popped in for dinner on the amazing patio on a summer evening. We asked about the wisteria overhead, whose vines are more like tree trunks, and we learned that it's about 100 years old and so heavy that a steel structure was built to support it. The white mini lights among the wisteria definitely create a mood. I ordered the steelhead, bc you will never find that in my home state of Michigan. It was tender and flavorful, but was drowning in the sweet brown sugar mustard glaze. Too sweet. The star of our group's entrees was the pear blossom pizza - a magnificent combination of tastes, where the gently glazed pear muted the usually strong flavor of the bleu cheese. Oh my. I will dream of that. read more

While traveling we stopped here for lunch. Terrific warm chicken sandwich with pesto and ham - grilled. Incredible. We also shared the turkey and cranberry cream cheese sandwich- wonderful! The Florentine tomato soup was delicious. Beautiful garden in the back. We sat among herbs and flowers in the sunshine. A very good choice. read more

It should be called bellyache union!! I got a large Pizza to go for $23. The Pizza crust was basically hard an tasted like a frozen gas station pizza. They cover the taste with so much garlic. I wouldn't recommend eating here unless you want a ballyache. Worst pizza ever I rather eat a 7/11 pizza for half the price read more

The back seating area is soooo cool! However recently we've used them for delivery (thank you covid). Great food! Never disappointment.

A co worker took us here while we were in town. Good food and the atmosphere was great. I'd return and try other items. read more

Oh my, they have the best pizza here. We ordered the Prima Bella a gourmet vegetarian pizza. It was great. The restaurant was a quaint little place that was in an antique building. The amount of character in the building was incredible. We stopped here after we had walked the town and checked it out. What a nice time. read more

The atmosphere at the Bella Union is welcoming and fun. I love the outdoor patio. Food is great.

My friend and I stopped in to Bella Union this weekend and we're delighted to see that they offer a brunch for only $15 that includes mimosas, champagne, muffins, coffee cake and French toast. Neither of us were super hungry so we decided to split it as a snack. There was no muffin but there was coffee cake and a cookie, and they weren't bad but they were pretty dry and underwhelming. The French toast was standard and came with cantaloupe, which was great. However, we did not realize that there was a $4 charge just for splitting something and honestly would have just ordered our own for that amount if we had known! I asked the server whether we should have know about the charge and she was irritated with us. We waited 25 minutes just to give them the check to pay to leave, and after we left we realized that he brunch should have included drinks and did not. We were pretty disappointed in every part of eating there. read more

What a great Italian restaurant. Had the Chicken Parmesan and it was delicious. The outside sitting is perfect. They have heaters and the customer service is really good. Definitely a place I want to come back (specially because I want to taste the other dishes...heard the Pizza is also good!) read more
