We went to the previous Bella Roma location in New Albany shortly after opening several years ago,…read morehad a bad experience and never went back. We just went to the Jeffersonville location with family. We had our reservations because of the last experience, but were willing to give it another try based on their recommendation. We were pleasantly surprised. The location is lovely with the view of the river, and the outdoor seating is a nice touch. This could definitely be a romantic spot for an evening dinner. We went in the afternoon and called ahead to make reservations for a party of 12, including children. They accommodated us just fine and were very gracious. The service was excellent, the wait staff had a polite, friendly manner, and kept everything flowing perfectly. We all enjoyed our food. One of the best dishes was the House Special, which was ordered with meatballs. The vodka sauce was tasty. I would say parking and handicap access would be the challenges that I observed. We utilized street parking. There were two small sets of stairs going up to the entrance.

I was excited to have a new spot in Jeffersonville to try - and waited a couple of months for the…read morenewness to settle. As a previous reviewer mentioned - parking and handicap access are challenges the restaurant will need to address. Since we arrived for an early dinner - parking was not an issue for us . . . we utilized street parking right in front of the restaurant. There are two short sets of stairs to enter the restaurant itself - I did not see a ramp for handicap access. Once we entered the restaurant, we were given the choice of a small table downstairs or dining upstairs. We elected upstairs since the dining area downstairs (which is very small) was packed with a large group and only the small table was available. To reach the dining area upstairs you must climb a long staircase. I would recommend if you are challenged with stairs - make a reservation for the dining area on the first floor. Just remember you must climb a small set of stairs to get into the restaurant itself. Once we were seated, we did have to ask for the AC to be turned on - it was very stuffy. There were two of us - each ordering drinks, salads and entrees. Our waiter was excellent and handled the AC request, drinks refills, check-ins all superbly. The food was okay - not the quality I would anticipate for the price. The best description for the food would be bland - the amount of food is fine - it's just bland. The cost for two - $75 not including tip.

A nice variety of dishes and daily specials make the menu fresh with every visit. We have become weekly regulars based on a host of reasons: Certainly, and firstly is the food: Appetizers, bar menu, wine list, main courses, specials and of course the fine deserts have kept us interested. The specials are varied and always fresh. As regulars we have our favorite dishes, but we've really have been delighted with the specials as well But when you think of an entire experience, you have to step back and consider the staff. Chef Alberto is a culinary artist. He and his team will delight you for sure. Wait time for your entrée is always shorter than you expect, and timed perfectly to coincide with your expectations. In terms of the overall experience, we've had the opportunity to get to know a number of other staff members. Gina, front of the house manager, is endearing and always welcoming. She's the glue that holds things together. Gina greets you with a smile and is eager to seat you and assist the waitstaff as they attend to your needs. Elly is one of the hosts that will help you with reservations and check on you throughout your evening. Elly is poised and accommodating. Bartenders Megan and Canaan are top notch and can concoct just about anything. And, they even learn to know your preferences if you visit often enough. We've gotten to know servers Macy, Bella, Darian, Kennedy and Gillian and can attest to their attentiveness and professionalism. We are blessed to interact with them often and find them to be a true team.

However, the pizza was very good. No problem with the quality of food at all.

I was excited to choose from the options I saw online here, until I found out they had a limited menu. And when I say limited, there were literally four options for entrees. I get doing a limited menu but surely there can be more options. If you didn't want pizza or chicken dishes, then you were out of luck The service was below par. If they are going to charge a decent amount for food (bill was 67 for two people, with one beer) then I feel like the service should meet that. One of the servers that was not ours was loud and annoying during service. Our server mentioned to us that he was sorry for the service because they were busy, when half the tables in the place were open. I'd hate to see what a full place would have been like! I hate sounding negative on a local place but if you are going to charger higher end prices then the experience should also be a bit better. I feel like Martini's in Louisville (a similar cuisine I've visited recently) had cheaper prices than this place, and was a much better experience. Not sure if I'll be in a rush to be back here

Friends gave us a gift card for our anniversary and they joined us for dinner. We had a…read morereservation and we're seated immediately. The staff brought water and bread/butter promptly. We all drank water, soda or tea and they kept our glasses filled. We ordered the pork chop dinner that came with risotto and vegetables. My husband loved the veggies and risotto but was not thrilled with the chop. He wishes he would have asked for a steak knife as it was difficult to cut with the butter knife provided. It was tender enough but neither of us cared for the flavor. I had the Primavera. It was a bit bland. I had to salt it several times. Our favorite part of the meal was dessert. We had a piece of lemoncello cake that was flavorful, creamy and light. We both thought it was great. We had about $20 left on our gift card and were disappointed we couldn't use the balance as the tip. So we ordered two more desserts to bring home to use the balance of the gift card. We brought homemade a piece of Italian cream cake that was as good or better than the lemoncello cake and it was a huge piece of cake. We also have a piece of caramel sea salt cheesecake which was pretty good. It was loud in the small space and a bit difficult to have a conversation across the table. The background music did not help with this issue. The staff were friendly and helpful boxing up our leftovers. Tables have white cloth tablecloths and the owner was making rounds to greet all the patrons which was nice. We discovered there is parking in the back of the restaurant, as so many of the spaces in the area have signs indicating you will be towed if you park there. We had to park on the street about a block down.

The pasta was properly cooked, the sauce was good, but not much better than a jar off the shelf. The veal, breaded & fried was overcooked - thus very chewy. I ordered a side Caesar salad. I appreciated the dressing on the side. Nothing out of the ordinary. Lettuce, cheese, croutons & dressing. For dinner, I went with a baked pasta sampler. I chose baked spaghetti w/meatballs; lasagna & meat ravioli. The raviolis were inconsistent. Some were good, but most had dough that I found undercooked and "pasty". The lasagna was good, although buried under the same sauce as the spaghetti. Hard to tell where one dish ended and the other began. Honestly, the hit of the meal was the meatball. Absolutely delicious. A huge breakdown was the gluten free spaghetti & meatballs I ordered to bring home to my wife. The pasta was actually rigatoni. It was severely undercooked. And a $3.99 upcharge? I could buy an entire box of pasta for $3.99. And after specifically ordering gluten free pasta, the "To-go" dinner came with regular "garlic bread". Oops. Tuscany needs to step up their game. Too many misses with just a few hits. For me, it's a one and done.

We opted for the bruschetta topped with mozzarella and served with tomato basil drip. Then the fresh bread arrived and my goodness was it good.

Then came the caprese pasta with grilled shrimp. Imagine tomatoes, basil, mozzarella, and shrimp having a delicious little party on your plate. The lasagna and manicotti, bathed in pink sauce so rich and creamy, made me question my life choices up to that point. Of course, this Italian feast needed wine worthy of the gods--Chianti, Chardonnay, and Sauvignon Blanc all played their parts beautifully, like the perfect musical trio backing an epic food opera. If you want authentic flavors, a staff that treats you like family, and the kind of meal that makes you want to book a one-way ticket to Italy (or at least come back here next weekend), di Fabio Casapela is your new happy place.
