Great customer service paired with generous portions and exceptional flavor. The pricing is excellent and affordable, they're open later than most, and the ambiance is truly inviting. A standout spot for a satisfying and enjoyable dining experience. We really liked the Calzones. read more

After a family emergency drew us in the area unexpectedly, our original dinner plans got cancelled so a last minute search for pizza landed us at Bella's and it turned out to be the best decision. It was late, almost to closing, but they had the game 7 World Series on their big screen TV and it was the top of extra innings so we wanted to watch. Even though they had closed the dining room for the evening, they graciously let us dine-in and finish watch the game. Their service was great! Even though we got our pizza packaged in a box, they served us as if we were dining in. We ordered a large New York style pizza, 1/2 Margherita and 1/2 Meat Lovers and it came out hot and yummy with a nice crisp bottom crust. Lots of seating, a bar and a couple of big screens for the sport fans to feel at home. I could sense it's a family business and you could feel how much that translates into how thoughtful and attentive they were. Eating there felt like a warm hug. Will definitely go back when in the area. read more

Scroll down for the food portion of the review this was a lot to capture. Well now let's get to it. This was a pizza shop I yelped for the area. To my surprise the end product was worth the experience. About that experience hmm, I had the luxury of arriving in the calm before the pending storm which was High School Graduations. Trust me when I say it was a storm. The seating capacity accommodates approximately 48 persons and a third full when I set foot in the establishment. So here they offer New York and Chicago (thin) style pizza. After reviewing the menu and placing my order I was advised of the 30 minute wait time. I elected to wait inside and witnessed what seemed to be a steady night to chaotic within a matter of minutes. Two large parties arrived to be seated and the phones started ringing non stop. You could see the stress starting to rapidly increase as the pressure mounted. The young man at the register repeatedly expressed wanting to disconnect the phone but thankfully did not and was encouraged to continue with what he needed to do next. There was one server for the floor who was assisted in setting up the tables and grabbing orders there was one server for the bar area near the register who was the calmest but did have to pause frequently to recall the tasks which needed to be done. In the back the boy was getting it done as the orders started flowing. There was a bit of a breakdown that happened with the pizza cutter and presumably the lead chef causing him to deviate from his main focus to slice a pie and outwardly venting his frustration. Later I did gather it was a family owned establishment which somewhat explained their dynamic. Despite all of the chaos and improper anticipation for graduation crowding the family held strong as a unit. For the area there were four high school gradations happening on the same day at roughly the same time. At least one person knew that information but I don't think it would have made a drastic difference even if prepared properly. VERY GOOD JOB OF ACCEPTING THE VOLUME, BENDING BUT NOT BREAKING, AND THE TEAM IN THE BACK FOR GOING INTO OVERDRIVE AND MAKING IT HAPPEN. THOSE YOUNG MEN AND "DAD" GOT STUFF DONE. Then I want to give Kudos to Stephanie as she held it strong!!! ************* Now for the food I ordered 3 pies margarita, supreme, and pepperoni with pineapple (Chicago thin). The flavor of the topping and the sauce was very good. The dough was thicker than I'm used to from both places but its style so nothing really negative on them. I really wish I photographed the pizza but we were hungry and it was so good. We ordered a salad too which they were able to customize to fit dietary needs. The salad wait time actually kept us past the pizzas being made largely due to the rush they got from customers. Overall 4 of 5 This day built character and toughness as a unit in the face of adversity. Thank you read more

Bella's service is always top notch. When I want to sit down and have a pizza this is my go to spot. I usually don't get sausage on my pizza, but I love the sausage at Bella's. It can get packed sometimes, so try to get there early. read more

Myself and a group of friends stumbled upon this place. It is hidden in a shopping center across the street from In-n-Out off the 215 in Murrieta. The costumer service was excellent. The staff were super friendly from the minute we walked in to the moment we left. We dined in and they brought us fresh garlic bread to our table. It was amazing. It was soft and full of flavor. A must try. They offer different styles of pizza. They also make pasta and other items. The pizza was amazing. This is one of the rare times I was unable to take photos. The group I was with was so hungry the food did not last. If you are in the area the food is a MUST try. I guarantee you will love the pizza and bread. I will definitely be back to try some of the other items. And I will take photos. read more

Cute little place, clean and accessible. WE told the waitress it was our first time and she asked if we had ever tried their garlic knots..... We hadn't. She had us try them and I TRULY wish she hadn't. I would seriously hurt somebody if they came between my and that first bite... THESE ARE ALSO YOUR MOMMA GOOD. THE GO OUT IN A HURRICANE FOR TO CONSUME. Nice little pie, pizza that is and the wait staff is genuinely involved in your dining experience to make sure you your good and fed. I'll be back... read more

Bella's has always been our favorite pizza place in the Temecula and Murrieta area, but lately it seems that the quality has been slipping. Last two times we have gone there for pizza there has been an absence of their wonderful pizza sauce. Almost like cheese bread. Hoping this is a temporary change, because for the first time in years we find ourselves looking for a new pizza restaurant. read more

The crust is very tasty on the inside fluffy it looks really nice and then you get that bite and all you can do is feel like you have sand in your mouth was so much cornmeal. I wish they would use flour and not so much cornmeal really no corn me at all when you take a bite I don't want grit I want crunch or soft not grit, but that doesn't make it a bad pizza some people like that like I said it was very nice looking pizza and it looked like it was gonna be great and when I ate the top part of the crust, it was delicious. I just can't Stan cornmeal. I ordered it from DoorDash. The driver was amazing. This service was above and beyond, but that's neither here and there for the taste of the pizza. I ordered spaghetti meatballs too, but I'm afraid to taste it. I feel they probably rolled their meatballs as well. I will leave that for later. Kind of grossed out now from so much gritty sand on the bottom of my pizza. read more

Pizza was HOT to serve ! We ordered the All Meat & Supreme and an Antipasto Salad !! read more

It's good pizza. I can't tell you anything about any other item on their menu, but the pizza was pretty on point. They have two styles--NY and Chicago. It's not deep dish Chicago, but rather a thin cracker type crust, cut into squares. We didn't get it, but it looks good. We opted for the NY version, which wasnt really reminiscent of a NY pie, but it was cut into triangles, and it was tasty. The meat lovers has sausage, pepperoni, and sliced meatballs. The meatballs were delicious, and the sausage was large, spicy, and wonderful. If I lived in the area, I'd easily go back. Be warned, though--it ain't cheap. $32 for a pizza is wild. read more

This is some of the best pizza I've had in California. I would absolutely recommend this place to everyone (well I do)!!

This was our first time here and the service was exceptional!! Stephanie, our server, was extremely attentive and pleasant!!! The pizza was absolutely fantastic. The owner, Bill, came out and greeted us and talked to us and it was a very 'East Coast/Chicago feel' in the restaurant. I felt like I was back East!! The thin crust supreme pizza was fantastic and we even opted to get some fresh cannolis for dessert. Everything exceeded our expectations!!! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED ITALIAN RESTAURANT!!! A+++++++++ Continued success to Bill and this gem of a restaurant in Murrieta!!!! read more

I originally gave a 1 star because I was mad because they were closed on a Monday. How rude am I? They do not deserve that. They have the best Italian around the IE. We love the pizza, calzones, baked Ziti...literally everything. It is our go to Italian, even though it is about 25 minutes away. Thanks Bella's!! You're the best!! read more

The pizza was delicious! My favorite was the antipasto salad and the garlic knots, they were so good!

REPPIN' CHICAGO AND NEW YORK STYLE PIZZA I love pizza. I have a subscription to "Pizza Today", which is a pizza industry magazine. I've been enjoying East and West Coast pies for over 40 years. These guy's make a rock-solid pie. I'm not a fan of thin crust, so I got the traditional, which seems like a thin crust. Let me tell you what I had delivered last tonight! MEDIUM PIE WITH PINEAPPLE, PEPPERONI, AND BLACK OLIVES SLICES: They did not separate easily and ended up tearing 2/3rds of the slice. CRUST: Thin/Traditional crust was not fully risen and doughy toward the center. It had crisp cornmeal specks on the bottom (adds flavor and protects crust). However, a thin crust gets soggy when delivery isn't in a good hot bag. I was a delivery guy back in the day, so I speak from experience. Overall, Crust was golden brown and looked appealing. SAUCE: Red sauce was above average. Captured a real "Mom and Pop" shop, where they put a little more work into their sauces. Tasted like the real deal - slow-cooked, ripe tomatoes with a touch of herbs - Groovy! CHEESE: Delightfully gooey mozzarella. Generously applied without overdoing it. The flavor was mild, as would be expected. PINEAPPLES: Sweet and generously applied. Other shops use under-ripe pineapples that detract from the entire flavor of the pie. BLACK OLIVES: Did the job and generously applied. PEPPERONI: Thinly sliced pepperoni that looked like salami. However, pepperoni comes in many shapes and sizes. What's most important was the meat delivered just enough flavor without overpowering other ingredients. PRO MOVE: Topped their pizza with a light Italian seasoning. Very few pizza shops and chains forget this pro move, which amps up seasonings in the crust, sauce, and meats. GOTTA TRY THE GARLIC KNOTS (SPIRAL ROLLS) GARLIC KNOTS: Oven hot, spiral rolls filled with buttery, garlicky goodness sprinkled with Italian seasoning. Nailed It!

The food was amazing first and foremost. Highly recommend the spinach pizza. The service from Stephanie was quick and friendly, came in on the later side, but she gladly accepted us and made us feel welcomed The setting was friendly and cozy and if I lived in the area, I would definitely be back to enjoy the nice family atmosphere read more

Best pizza spot in IE. The family and I came here for pizza. To our surprise, this place served the best pizza and Italian pasta, lasagna, and garlic rolls. Service was A+. They offer New York n Chicago style pizza. We had a GREAT experience and will definitely come back!!! Stop by today!!! read more

We ordered a medium pizza, garlic knots and cannoli. The pizza was good however the underside was full of burnt crumbs or cornmeal which was not so great! The garlic knots are yummy! The cannoli is god but a little sweet! I will say the service was super fast! read more

Hubby and I ordered a14 inch supreme pizza Chicago Style Crust and garlic bread with ranch dressing. It was our first time visiting Bella's, but it definitely won't be our last. The pizza was cheesy with plenty of toppings. The garlic rolls were delicious alone, but after dipping in the ranch dressing, it took it to a whole different level. Amazing flavor!!! Can't wait for our next visit. Anthony was a great host too!!! read more

Went in last night to place an order to go, the owner Bill and his daughter Sam were working and were the most polite, friendly people who took care of us with such fast service (not that we were in a rush) but their service was above and beyond. Sam offered us drinks while waited and Bill came out to talk with us. Was so great to hear about where he got started and little about the business. Not only was the service good but the pizza and garlic rolls were amazing!! Hands down best pizza in the area and surrounding area. You have to give it a try. Thank you Bill & Sam, we can't wait to go back. read more

Pizza is amazingly good- got 2 pizzas and garlic rolls- all very tasty. Only hiccup is we ordered and paid for a side of ranch and it was not in with our order- that was disappointing. read more

Great pizza. The thin crust "Chicago Style" is the best! The Garlic Rolls are delicious. The meatballs. Really, everything is good here.

We keep missing out on our points because they never add the gluten free options on their website so we always have to call it in and whenever we tell them they say it will be there next time but it never is. Pizza is great though read more

My wife heard about this place so we decided to try it out. I'm glad we did. Good Italian food for a decent price. And more than you can possibly eat. Our server was super friendly and genuinely seemed like he enjoyed his job which makes dining experiences so much better. It has the feel of a small town restaurant in Italy itself. If you're thinking about trying this place please do. Highly recommended! read more

I know there are people who balk at pineapple on pizza, but... How about pineapple and jalapeño? That's what we ordered on their wonderful thin crust. We had it delivered and it still arrived pretty hot. This is not the first time we've ordered from them. I guess you could say we like their pizza! Yummy! read more

I've been to Bella's Pizza twice - once over 10 years ago and recently. The first time is a bit blurry; I was young, and all I remember is my then-boyfriend not liking it. Now, with a more refined taste, I tried the meat lovers Chicago-style pizza, giving it a solid 7/10 - not mind-blowing but good. The garlic rolls were okay, but a bit much for me. I had to scrape off some seasoning, but they were still on the "good" side. A friend loved the lasagna, rating it 8/10. Overall, I'd give Bella's Pizza 4/5 stars; I'd come back to try more. Dining in was nice with great servers. The place started quiet but got busier. Some gym/yoga noise, but not too bad. Give it a shot and enjoy your meal! Happy eating! read more

Bella's Pizza Villa - Delicious pizza. Thin crust. - Pizza Near Me - Murrieta, California

Our favorite pizza place in the area and so delicious. The standard of quality is high. Pizza was brought to the table, and before we could even dig in, the owner came out and told us he was going to make us another one because he said the bottom of a piece of the one at our table was ripped. So we got to eat our pizza and take another home. We appreciated the attention to detail and quality. read more

This is good pizza. I like the garlic knots too. Beer is cheap price and probably the only place around with beer for this price. Yay.

Wonderful service for my wife and I. The entire staff put in the effort to take care of us, and Stephanie was a great server all around. We enjoyed our conversation with her and we will be back! Not so busy Saturday night (what's up with that!) and perfect evening to enjoy a delicious vodka pasta and pizza. Hopefully more people come pouring in instead of just ordering through third party apps. :) read more

First things first, I moved out here to California 6 years ago and the food isn't as good back home (illinois) but I will say this place was so good, really reminded me of Chicago which I wasn't too far from. 10/10. Best pizza I've had since I've been out here. read more

They have the best Italian sausage on their pizza. So flavorful, not the plain no flavor like so many pizza places or restaurants. Every time we order takeout the pizza has been excellent. Right amount of sauce and seasoning, and toppings are generous. In almost 2 yrs here and trying other pizza places, Bella's is the place for pizza. read more

Love, love, love the Spaghetti. So did my husband. Better than other Italian restaurants. We will be trying other items on the menu.

Called in to ask for ranch and the lady told me that I have to do it through the door dash app. I told her there wasnt an option to add ranch on the side but in the description I did ask for ranch.. she said she knows. Well if I can't add it on there then how can I do it throughthe app? She told me it was .50 cents each and asked how many i wanted and that she would do it this time. I told her, "just two please." She took my name twice and I still didnt get the ranch. I paid 50$ for a large pizza and 8 count of the bread.. i think there should be a side included... IF NOT, then have an option to charge over the phone. Very frustrating when simple things can be handled and they arent. I wont be back because of this simple mistake. This was my first time here too. :/ read more

Hands down the best baked ziti bolognese I have ever tried!!! The meat lover Chicago style thin crust and Philly cheesesteak pizzas were amazing too!

We would definitely come back! read more

Saw the great reviews so I immediately thought I should try it. I couldn't decide so I ordered one of each kind. Ordered the pepperoni pizza Chicago style. It was ok. It wasn't bad but it wasn't the best we've ever had. I also ordered and tried the Bella's calzone with sausage, mushroom, bell pepper, ricotta cheese. It is huge so you can split it with someone or a group of friends like an appetizer. Everyone cut off a piece. I think the reviews really hyped up this place and it just didn't live up to my expectations. I did think their fettuccine Alfredo was good. Very creamy. They do not have chicken to add to it. The sauce and noodles alone are very good. The only thing I really like from here. The garlic knots, same where I thought it would taste better than I thought it was. It's a no for me. I could do without ordering it. read more
