BellaBrava

Had an amazing time here for dinner. Our server was a lovely girl named Kaitlin (never got the exact spelling) and she was super attentive & gave a tone of recommendations based on her menu favorites. I got her favorite pasta which was the ravioli genovese and my boyfriend got the short rib ragu. For apps we got the arancini and bruschetta (both were great) and as a drink I got the basil cocktail on the signature list. Definitely will go back if we are in the area again!

We ate here last night after hearing multiple times that this is the best pizzeria in town. Unfortunately, I can’t understand that claim at all. I started with the Beef Carpaccio, and it had absolutely nothing to do with Italian cuisine. The beef was cut far too thick instead of paper-thin. A lemon garlic aioli does not belong on a classic carpaccio, and crispy capers are completely out of place as well. The dish felt unbalanced and gimmicky, lacking any respect for the original preparation. For my main course, I ordered the Black Truffle Pasta. Setting aside the fact that they charge $26 for a pasta in cream sauce, the dish itself was extremely disappointing. It was obvious that it wasn’t freshly prepared, the sauce was heavy and flat, and there was absolutely no truffle flavor whatsoever. Overall, the food was poor and not even close to justifying the prices or the reputation this place seems to have. Anyone who says you can eat well here, in my opinion, has no real understanding of good Italian food. I will not be coming back.

We have been here in the past and My Wife wanted to go back for Her Birthday, so We did. Great call! Everything was soooo good! The Servers were exceptional and there is No where better than St. Petersburg Florida. I can't say enough about BellaBrava. If and when We come back to this town?, We will definitely come here again. Try Em out for Yourself and see what You think.

We had a great lunch at BellaBrava after having visited the St. Pete Pier. We stopped by because my wife wanted pasta while I was wanting a sandwich. She was able to order a gluten-free pasta with alla vodka sauce and grilled chicken, which they were happy to accommodate for us. She shared that the pasta was delicious! I ordered a chicken pesto melt, and it was a generous slab of chicken. It was also crispy and prepared well. The fries were also notably delicious. Even the kid’s spaghetti that we ordered for our son was wonderful. Service was excellent and our server was attentive and friendly throughout our meal. Overall, we had a great lunch experience, and will definitely look to come back again!

My hubby and I stopped in tonight for a quick dinner and am so glad we did. I got a cappuccino and ravioli, added chicken to it and wow, so yummy! My hubby got the beef carpaccio and loved it. We ended it with a tiramisu and it was huge! Very good but probably big enough for like 4 people 😆. We decided no bread to not get too heavy on the carbs but it sure did smell good! We sat outside and enjoyed the beautiful scenery and just watched life happen. The service was great, they all worked well together and checked in at different times. We made the right choice tonight!
