What an amazing evening. As customers of Bella Sarno when it was under the old management, we would go every Friday night. Unfortunately, the service and food went down hill fast and we stopped going to our Friday night staple. This evening we decided to retry Bella Sarno again, hoping the new owners would have made improvements.
We were not disappointed!!
From the moment we walked in, we were greeted by a young lady with an incredibly welcoming smile. We proceeded to the bar area and were lucky enough to find two seats. There were two bartenders working and we were again welcomed to Bella Sarno by a smiling and inviting young lady. Our drinks were made quickly and efficiently and I must add, if you like fruity drinks,you must try their drink titled kinky...it was delicious.
The bartenders were at this point becoming very busy, as the restaurant was filling with patrons, and neither bartender showed any sort of distress. They both showed professionalism and great service to everyone around the bar, as well as their own waitstaff.
We ordered our appetizer, calamari (outstanding flavor and great portion) and our dinners, we had the shrimp scampi and the rigatoni bolognese.
The portions were definitely worth the price. The flavor was to die for. Upon leaving the restaurant, we were greeted by the new owners Leo and Julie who were genuinely interested in our experience, of course we didn't hesitate to tell them how pleased we were.
I am really glad we decided to return to Bella Sarno, it was worth the wait.

The food here is amazing. The sauce is delicious and homemade . While we waited for a table we checked out the bar . It's a nice bar area , very big and open . Looks like they have a patio for the warmer months . On the menu is a appetizer called the Arinchini , you just have to try it ! Our waiter was Nick and he was professional, informational and he is prompt with our drinks and food . The owner's Leo and Julie make you feel like family , We love this restaurant .

This is a great Italian restaurant! The food is always amazing, and the atmosphere is very nice. The servers are excellent, especially Alexis. My friend and I have been there on a few occasions and she always remembers us. Whether she is our server or not, she always makes a point to come over and say how great it is to see us. Definitely a great asset to restaurant. The other night James, I think his name was, waited on us. He is also great. Very attentive to our table, friendly and professional. I will definitely continue coming and enjoying the food and atmosphere at your restaurant!!
Great service, large serving size, and great food. We made a reservation both for dinner and to view the function hall. They seated us immediately for dinner. The owner/manager was very pleasant and answered all of our questions thoroughly. It was a very nice experience!
Just had my first visit to Bella Sarno. Loved everything about the restaurant. While visiting my daughter in Rhode Island, going to Leo's restaurant was top priority for this trip. Well worth the drive. Thank you Leo and Julie.
I was very excited to try Bella Sarno under the new(ish) management of the Raneri family as of April 2016. The food was delicious and offered at very affordable prices. Loved the arancini starter and the chicken parm. I look forward to returning to try more dishes. The atmosphere is casual, friendly and relaxed and during the week they offer a great deal on dinner for two for $45 with lots of popular items from their menu. Give this place a try!
Thank you Leo and Julie for a wonderful dinner show this past Saturday.
Food is always fantastic! Thank you for supporting live music and the arts. We are looking forwarding to coming back.
If your looking for good authentic Italian food ...there is no place better !
thanks so much !
Went for our first time to check out this Italian restaurant.
The place was nicely furnished with a true feel of Italy. We appreciated the friendly and courteous staff the moment we walked in.
The clean tables with cloth napkins were neatly displayed. The menu selections were eclectic and varied with some classic dishes.
We were impressed with their Sunset dinner specials. For the amazing price of $15 we chose a unique meal. This included warm and fresh home made rolls to start with a beautiful cinnamon butter. Soooo good and fresh we watched the butter melt into tasty goodness.
I had the Marsala which had nice chicken breast over pasta. The portion was impressive as well as the extras. This included a soup or salad as well as coffee/tea And dessert! All for $15?? Wow!
My wife had the steak tips. Cooked to temperature with a beautiful flavor. The meat was tender and had a nice texture in every bite!
Our server was on point for the entire meal. We never had to wait or seek out out our waitress. She kept our beverages full as well as staying on point through out the meal!
Their banquet areas were beautifully appointed. With different sized areas, parties from small to large are able to be accommodated.
We found the entire experience to be delightful and welcoming. We will return for sure and try the other tasty dishes. Well worth the money with their Sunset specials a home run!
Our first visit to Bella Sarno was amazing! We tried a variety of meals in prep for a wedding rehearsal dinner. Our server Kate was very professional and attentive. We met with the owner Leo, and he is a great guy! He listened to our needs and even gave us two tasting dishes on the house! In all we got 6 dishes, and each and every one was delicious! You have to try Nonna's Bracciolentini - yummy! The food was amazing, and we will definitely be back, not only for the rehearsal dinner, but we will make this a regular place for dinner!
Wonderful family style restaurant. We took my mother for her birthday party. The egg plant is delicious and the mashed potatoes are out of this world! I will defiantly come back!
The food was really good and reasonably priced. The waitress was very nice and accommodating. Would deff go back. Only thing i would recommend is they update their bathroom, very outdated.
Had a family dinner in a private room. Everyone was happy with the food. My steak was excellent. The custom cake they made for us was one of the best I have eaten.
I had a one star review of Bella Sarno up here that I just had to delete. My issue a while ago was soley based on service as we've always enjoyed the food. So, based on a neighbors recommendation and learning that new owners had taken over shortly after our disastrous visit we went back to Bella Sarno. We are very happy we did. Our meals were terriic and the homade pastas are delicious! I had the Beef Braciolettini which was phenomenal! As good as the food was, the gem now of Bella Sarno is the service! Our server, Jasmine was excellent! I could absolutely tell that the staff now actually enjoy thier work and care about the service they give. This has to be a direct reflection on the new owners. Really happy we gave Bella Sarno another go. This place will be on the top of our list when we are looking to eat out!
We went on a Thursday night. Dining room wasn't too busy. Four of us each had a chicken dish. All the entrees were excellent as well as the stuffed mushroom appetizer. Service was lacking. I think there was only one waiter for the entire dining room. Took a long time to get a drink or even our water glass refilled. Not sure if it we just an off night or people didn't show up for their shift. Definitely need to staff more people. It could have been an amazing dining experience.
This is such a fabulous place to go to eat for a reasonably price romantic night out, order take out, or have them cater. The people who work there are down to earth, kind, and devoted to making your experience wonderful. The food is DELICIOUS!! You cannot go wrong with anything you order. Everything is homemade and made from scratch!
My husband and I got married two weeks ago, and we were supposed to have our rehearsal dinner here. However, we decided to just do a small wedding due to COVID and a rehearsal was not needed. Instead, everyone was so flexible and we arranged to have them cater the small intimate wedding. They were so unbelievably flexible and willing to do whatever to make the day extra special! They made my husband and I are very own separate special plates as well as made sure that anyone with an allergy was accommodated. They came with a wonderful and kind server who put all of the guests needs first. Their was a beautiful and kind bartender who made all the drinks so no one had to work! The drinks were amazing. And the talented chief came as well to plate everything and make sure the food was all set! Our small intimate wedding in the backyard felt like we were at a venue with the amazing service they provided!
I HIGHLY recommend this amazing place! They truly treat you like family!
