Outstanding. Would give 6 stars if I could. We were in Oakland for one evening and our two teenagers response was that it was the best meal they'd ever had.

Delicious food and great service. They have both indoor and outdoor seating. You would need reservation. We didn’t have reservation, but still they seated us at the bar table. The ambience is excellent. My favorite was the Butterbean and black rice risotto. Lots of tea options and they are delicious.

We had an outstanding dinner at Bellancio Restaurant and Wine BarWhat made our meal so remarkable? Every thing we ordered was very unique and delicious. We started with their “ Little Gems” Antipasti which consisted of “pickled butternut squash &red onion, gorgonzola, candied walnuts and dijon vinaigrette “! We also had a ravioli that was described as “ Casunzei Red beet & ricotta ravioli , butter sauce,poppy seeds and GRANA PADANO! These two dishes were unlike any I’ve ever had in an Italian or any restaurant! And both were absolutely exceptionally delicious! Maya was our server and she was wonderful too! And for dessert, we ordered an amazing selection of their favorite desserts that was perfect for the perfect for the four of us but selfishly, I would have loved to have it all for myself!

I love this place. Like LOVE. The food I’ve gotten here has always been very flavorful, well cooked, and presented beautifully. They also have a good selection of wine as well if you want to drink wine. Their desserts are also delicious, I always order the doughnuts which come with a dark chocolate sauce and this white sauce. They used to have these fish cannolis that were heavenly but unfortunately, those aren’t on the menu anymore. Outdoor seating: yes Heat lamps: yes Nice owners and staff: yes Price: it’s on the pricier side Wine price: ~ $11-16 per glass

Bellanico was a nice sit-down restaurant with a great feel, ambiance, and experience. I stumbled upon this place on a recommendation and went with a few people. We noticed there was a prefix menu for the night.. so that was a good way to try many of their offerings! Our first dish we got was toast with cured salmon paste on it. The toast was crispy and had a nice texture to it. The paste was a good accompaniment and it was a nice dish to munch on. We then were able to try the wild boar and ricotta ravioli. I liked the ravioli though it was a pretty plain dish and did not think anything much of it. I was also able to get the Russet potato gnocchi with gargonzola cream and toasted almonds. This was my favorite dish here. The almonds provide a nice texture and the gnocchi was prepared well and tasted great. For dessert I got the goat cheese cheesecake. This was a nice tasting cheesecake and it was not overly sweet. It just had the right amount of minimal sweetness which I liked. I really like the interior of this restaurant and the service was very attentive and nice. I definitely would come back!
