    Outstanding food and service. A definite must for all Italian food lovers. If you get chance to try the mussel starter, don't hesitate.

    What a treat to find in these difficult times for the hospitality industry…. Great welcome by very accommodating servers; really good value for money over a fabulous Menu. Well cooked Italian food that was well presented and Great Value for Money. Thank You Felice.

    Fabulous lunch today and great service! There is a vegan menu and I had linguine con courgette. It was delicious. I would have given it 5 stars but for one thing. Their was bruchetta on the vegan menu and the regular menu, with identical ingredients but the vegan menu was more than a £1 more expensive. I couldn't see any reason for that?

    Big starters. The best funghi risotto I have ever had. Creme burlee was also very nice. Reasonable price. Just a bit too noisy. Great dinner out. Thank you 💕

    Lovely Italian restaurant, host & staff are welcome and attentive but not overly so. Food is amazing, and have a fabulous vegan menu with loads of choice. If I lived closer I'd be a regular

    We had come on a whim to this restaurant and was greeted by what we believe to be the owner. Placed on a table and all was well. The starter sharing antipasti was lovely. The drinks order came wrong but thought nothing much of it. When the mains came my main had a hair within the ravioli, we presented it to the owner for him to take the plate with no apology I was left to eat the sides we had ordered with the main. By the point we had informed him off the hair no staff members came to our table, it was like we had been black marked from that point. When time to pay my partner has gone to the bar and the bill was still present my the main with the hair in. My partner asked if this could be removed only and he was faced with a barrage of comments to say we had planted the hair. Firstly myself and my partner are blonde haired and my hair and as a woman fully understand could have gone into the dish was tied up and is very long, both hair did not resemble short black hair, from that point instead of both parties just accepting it and us only not paying for the one dish he continued to state that the hair could of then come of anywhere and told us even our clothes. The hair was in the centre of the ravioli not on top. I’m afraid with that I would not go back and the attitude and how we were treated by the owner outweighs the good experience we had with the other waiting staff. Everything fine until something isn’t quite right and it can’t be his fault. Poor.

    Vegan menu! So surprised to find they do a full vegan menu with plenty of options. Flavours were fantastic! And so pleased to see vegan cheese available for the pizza's. All photo's attached are from the vegan menu. Please go give them a try, you won't regret it 😊

    My favourite restaurant, we come here every time for family birthdays and other celebrations. Not too big and impersonal, with friendly staff and excellent chefs who cook wonderful, tasty dishes. My particular favourites are the steak dishes, always cooked to perfection. I don't eat out often, but when I do I come here.

    Food was lovely. I suspect some new waiting staff as they appeared a little nervous and unsure. Bruschetta followed by seafood pasta was yum 😋

    Lovely place spread over 2 floors with steps between. Has 2 bars. Stepped area midway on ground floor. Toilets upstairs. Food is wonderful, reasonable prices with specials board. Even with 12 in party service was quick.

    Last night we were charged £6.99 (children's meal) for a small bowl of plain pasta for our 11 month old baby! She didn't have (and wasn't offered) the starter or the dessert that went with it. The food was nice but shocked to have been charged for a full meal instead of say, a side dish or given for free, especially when you consider the amount of money that was spent as a party of 7.

    We regularly come and dine at to Felice’s, what a great place to eat. Felice and his team really make you feel welcome and get every last detail just right. It’s one of our go to restaurants in Wakefield. The food on offer comes from a wide range of Italian specialities, something for everyone and it is simply irresistible. Always such fresh and quality preparation leaves you just looking forward to your next visit. It’s always very busy with a great atmosphere which is a brilliant advert for them!, a real experience for authentic Italian cuisine.

    Loved this restaurant. Friendly, attentive (but not annoyingly so) staff, great menu. Excellent food. Amazing value. 2 shared starters, 4 entrees a bottle of wine,, 2 deserts, 1 liqueur coffee ... 92 pounds! Note - no service charge is made - you should tip these guys as everyone front of house and in the kitchen is doing a great job!

    Went for my colleagues 30th Birthday celebration, booked the private room. From first phone call to leaving everyone was extremely helpful and friendly. Especially like to mention the lovely Ella who was looking after the bar there. Delightful young lady. Good food fantastic no complaints at all. Looked after dietary needs brilliantly . Highly recommend. X

    A cosy yet loud and lively Italian restaurant. The waiting staff are very friendly and the portion sizes are generous. My fiance and I went for a date night and were sat at the back of the restaurant near the pass - which was good as it's always nice to see the chefs at work. The menu consists mainly of typical family favourites and crowd pleasers, such as pizzas, lasagna, steak, etc. However, if you look a little closer you may find something a little more special. For starters, we went for the Antipasto Misto, Polpette di Carne and the Zucchini Fritti - which were a great selection of flavours and textures, although the meatballs were not as hot as we would have liked. For mains we went for the Capunti Calabrese and the Pennette al Forno. The Capunti Calabrese is a delicious handmade pasta dish whuch was beautifully presented and tasted wonderful. However, the Pennette al Forno was considerably less refined and a stark contrast to the quality of the Capunti. For wine, we went for the Chianti which was lovely. I don't think we'd hurry back to Felice's Bella Roma for a date night, but would happily recommend it to others for family friendly meals and celebrations.

    We’re regular family diners to Felice’s, what a fantastic place to eat. Felice and his team really make you feel welcome and get every last detail just right. It’s our go to restaurant, nowhere comes close. The food on offer comes from a wide range of Italian specialities, something for everyone and it is simply irresistible. Fresh and quality preparation leaves you just looking forward to your next visit. It’s always busy, which is a brilliant advert, the atmosphere is great too, a real experience for authentic Italian cuisine. I cannot recommend enough!

    Favourite Italian restaurant by far. Always thoroughly enjoyed everything we’ve ordered, been with many friends and they always gave glowing feedback too. Ordered takeaway, drove 15 minutes with it and it was all still hot. Top tip try the profiteroles! Divine!

    Really good service. Good quality produce; both food and wine. However, the mussels were bland; tinned tomatoes and raw garlic. The steak was a beautiful cut, but the mushrooms were overwhelmed by the sauce that tasted of chocolate. Would go again for pizza or pasta but not for a special occasion.

    This is a lovely little restaurant with very friendly attentive staff and a very good menu too boot . We had a starter and main and some drinks and it cost under £30. The food was gorgeous and beautifully cooked and I would highly recommend Bella roma to friends and family and will be definitely going for a meal there again

  • 4/5 Mark W. 1 year ago on Google
    Excellent food, with many choices on the menu and more on the specials board. I had starters and a main course, and they were superb. I went in a group of 8 for a friend's birthday party and the atmosphere was certainly celebratory. The service could have been a little more speedy and attentive but it was a very busy evening. I'd definitely go again.

    Small business, cosy but very clean and well kept. It has an intimate feel, and the aromas from the food confirm you are going to enjoy your meal before you have even sat down. Staff were professional and friendly. I can reccomend the lobster ravioli with a cream sauce, the sauce wasn't too rich and the seafood was cooked just right. The pasta was not too heavy...its a beautiful dish when cooked properly like this.
