B.B. Italia Bistro & Bar

We had the lunch combo. The pasta was drier than our liking, but the portion was big. The only thing that stood out was the cheesecake; it was creamy and not too sweet 👍🏻. It was not crowded during lunch time, we were seated right away, but our waitress was not very attentive.

Came here Saturday evening for a birthday dinner and it wasn’t packed at all. We were a group of 5 and made reservations prior to coming. This was my first time eating at the location. Usually I eat my brothers leftovers. Appetizers: The bread with 4 different sides 10/10. All the side sauces/dips were really good! Arancini, 9/10. This is really filling because of the cheese. I couldn’t even eat my entree because I was so full. Entree: Caprese 7/10. Honestly wasn’t anything I was “wow” about Vodka Pasta 10/10 according to my friend who got it. She finished the whole plate! Basil Pasta 8/10 according to my friend who got it Alfredo Pasta 10/10 according to my friend who got it. She finished the plate as well. Aglio E Olio Pasta (Chicken) 7/10. I needed to add a lot of pepper and chilli flakes. Lobster Bisque 2/10. It tasted burnt and apparently they forgot to put cream in it. Not sure how that happens, but definitely would not recommend this. The Spiced Ginger Buck tasted like ginger beer only. No liquor taste at all, so I added a shot of gin and that didn’t help. I ended up not even drinking my drink. They also make their cocktails pre made, so maybe that’s why it didn’t taste good. Not too sure. Overall, the manager was friendly and came by everyone’s table to make sure all was okay. He did take off the soup from the table and offered to remake it, but the burnt taste just made me not want to try it again. Would I come back? Hmmm. Im not sure. Definitely wouldn’t come back for the drinks, maybe just the appetizers.

This place was wonderful! We came on a whim and did not have reservations, but we came before the dinner rush so it was easy to be seated. Although, when we were leaving, it was pretty packed so I recommend a reservations. The atmosphere was beautiful, the lighting made the restaurant look gorgeous plus the live piano music just made the perfect experience. I’ll say perfect for a date night. Our waitress was super sweet. She gave her recommendation which we took her up on and got the Arancini. Next, my boyfriend got the chicken carbonara, and I got the chicken Parmesan. The portion size is definitely huge! You’ll be taking a to go box for sure. Please try this place, perfect for date night or an anniversary, even girls night.

Our server Don was great. Food came out perfect timing. Appetizers to espresso was delicious. Highly recommend Grandma's ravioli even though I'm not a brown sauce kind of person, but it was the bomb!

My Wife and I enjoyed a great lunch at B.B. Italia Bistro & Bar. Our server was Evan who did a perfect job telling us about the menu and making sure we had everything we needed from the kitchen. Based on the great food and expert servers like Evan we can highly recommend this Restaurant.

Great food amazing service lovely wine. Top notch and their special birthday cake is on the house and tastes so good. Love the 20 layer lasagna and the tiramisu as well.

Our 1st time and the staff were great. Piano playing at the bar. I get very picky about my italian food... but, I am sure everyone else will like it.

The pizza was a good six out of 10. Really nice place to eat at in town center but I feel like the food was not that good. The ambience was a friendly family Italian restaurant gathering with casual wear . If you want quiet dining, don’t come here.

Everything was outstanding from the time we were greeted at the door. Friendly staff, attractive, clean, and comfortable environment; great food! Spaghetti: Delicious! Cheesecake: Smooth and delightful! Dalton and Ahlam were professional, pleasant, attentive, and simply EXCEPTIONAL at their jobs! This is easily one of our new favorite spots.

Barely mediocre. We ordered two appetizers and three entrees. Meatballs were good but the focaccia was dense and bland. Carbonara tasted like it had no egg and was also flavorless. Bolognese supposed to be a heavy meat sauce. Barely any meat, imbalanced in quantity with the pasta and again flavorless. Ravioli decent but cream sauce was too light and watery, did not stick to the pasta. The price for all this mediocre food was outrageous! Akin to fine dining prices. I suppose we are in the era of restaurants talking a big game and presentation only to serve up marginal, weak food and expecting that people won't know any better. It's also wide open, no ceilings, no booths, and loud as a rock concert. No privacy, intimacy whatsoever. Avoid this place.

Food overall is okay while the presentation not consistent. Ordered lamb shank in 2 different occasions, they looked very different. Services can be improved. Do watch out additional "non-cash" surcharge the restaurant sneaked on the tab when pay with credit card. This is the 1st I've seen at restaurant at this caliber.

This apparently is a duplicate account and not the "official" BB Italia Yelp review page. Nonetheless, I'll repost my review to help anyone out and prevent them from wasting time and money. This is already pretty long so I'll spare the entire headache I endured and try to sum it up. Service is horribly slow. Took almost an hour to the dot (4:47pm-5:42pm) for an order of kids chicken strips and a cheese pizza to come out. I placed my order at 4:47pm. Ticket time shows it was submitted at 4:49pm. The restaurant was almost empty until about 5:15pm! I did not get my food until 5:42pm! I was my waiter's only table. He wasn't doing anything but talking to his coworkers at the bar! He didn't seem to want to do his job, nor did he care about his appearance. It was just a really disgusting and super disappointing experience all around. Food is subpar. I waited an hour for my food and it comes out tasting like something you'd get at a dive bar. You're seriously better off going to NY Pizzeria or even Olive Garden. Also, they do charge a 3.5% charge for using your credit card but don't tell you about it. Benjamin Berg, train your staff please. My waiter looked as if he just rolled out of bed. His hair was a mess, his glasses were dirty, his shirt was extremely wrinkled, and his baggy jeans were too. That's not "the look" I'm expecting to see at what's supposed to be an "upscale" restaurant. None of that might have not mattered to me had he actually came back around to my table after taking my order. (He even did that 7 minutes after I got there.) When a table gets sat, they should be greeted and drink order should be taken almost immediately. Food runners are support staff, they're not there to do the waiters job for them. (However, today 5/7, they did 110% better than my waiter.) When your guest gets their food, your waiter should be at the table asking the guests did they receive everything and is there anything they need? Then followed up by 2 bites 2 minutes. Within 2 bites or two minutes of receiving the food, the waiter should be back at the table making sure everything tastes as it should. ESPECIALLY IF THEY ONLY HAVE ONE TABLE! Tell me why, in over an hours time, my waiter only came to my table ONCE!? What gossip at the bar was so damn good that he couldn't at least send over another waiter? I'm not coming back here and I'm not recommending this place to anyone either. It was a complete let down all around.

Stumbled in this place one night and was pleasantly surprised. Pizza was great and the pasta is even better. The make their own pasta in house.

I went here with my friend and yet we are only teens we were not treated correctly. He completely ignored my friend and didn't even give her the chance to order, he took mine and walked away. After we got him and ordered her order, they came out at different times and mine was not fresh and cold and hers came out about 10 minutes later fresh and hot. He did not come over to check on us and the food took way to long to come out. They also had no change. I would not recommend the sugar land b.b Italia. As well as not recommending the server we had Amir P.
