Given its location this place is always going to be a bit of a tourist trap. As you might expect from a restaurant that is part of a chain (there are over 70 Bella Italias in Britain - I just checked) the feel and ambience of the place is pretty generic and you could be anywhere.
The menu is not bad but when I visited we were given a long list of things that were not available (this might be related to us turning up without a booking at 9.30 on a Sunday evening). Then when I tried to order, what I had selected was also unavailable. I ended up with duck leg in a cherry sauce. The duck was quite succulent and tasty but the sauce was too sweet for my liking. My mates had pizzas which all looked and smelled good.
At £15/head for a shared started, mains and a bottle of wine it seemed pretty good value. Overall, not bad but I probably wouldn't choose to go there again.

Went here a few months back with another couple. They'd been there several times and booked a specific table. The place was rammed on a Friday evening. We weren't in any way rushed and the service was prompt so I'd advise booking if you really want to go.
Food was very good, nice pizza, decent pasta, we were all happy. 65 quid for all of us and we had a bottle of wine in there too. Well pleased with it and would happily go there again.

This place was great for a quick lunch on a Saturday afternoon. The food was tasty and the menu sizeable. The table was a bit sticky, which is always a bit of a turn-off, but given its location it's functional and does its job well.

The restaurant was nice and the food was very good, but I have to say that the service wasn't good at all!
At the end of our meal we asked for the bill, it was given and as we were a group of young adults who had just taken money out of the bank to go out for a meal we only had £20 notes and one of my friends had two £10 notes so all four of us gave £20 to what was just over £60 meal and then realised we had given way too much. But we thought it would be ok and we would just get the extra money back in our change. When our change came back we had no where near the amount we should have, we complained to our waiter and we didn't get dealt with in a good manner - he was very rude. So then the manager came and said she would take our number and at the end of the night check the till and would contact us the next again day, but they never called back. I don't think I will be going there again!
