About Bellezza Restaurant

Bellezza delivers generous bistro comfort and old-school floor charm beneath its striking dining room wine wall. Regulars settle in for handmade pastas—notably sweet dried figs tucked into gorgonzola gnocchi or tagliolini tossed with seared scallops—alongside tender charcoal-grilled eye fillet with rich mushroom sauce. Lunch offers an accessible three-course menu, while evenings shift toward comforting ocean claypots loaded with fresh seafood. Meals naturally wrap with house vanilla panna cotta or a slice of warm apple and rhubarb crumble.

  • Handmade Pastas: Handmade tagliolini tossed with seared scallops and tender gnocchi gorgonzola paired with dried figs.
  • Set Menus & Tastings: Multi-course options range from an accessible three-course lunch special to curated tasting menus.
