Bella Pizza

Excellent pizza and garlic knots! Pizza is great; we got a personal build pie with red sauce, Italian sausage, spinach, carmalized onion, and balsamic. Crust was crisp, but not too crunchy, sauce was rich, but not too sweet. Sausage was real, and not something you buy from a tube at the grocery store. Tasty and well prepared. Garlic knots are some of the best we've had, but also clocked in at a lower price than most. $5 for half-dozen, they are some of the best value for a pizza shop. Would love to come again!

04/19/17: 4.5 out of 5 - First time trying Bella Pizza. Came in for the Portland Mercury Pizza Week. This is a good neighborhood pizza/bar place to go to. It's not too big so it can get a bit loud to have a conversation. Regardless, you go there for the pizza, right? Pizza by the slices here are good sizes, and tasty. The pizza crust, in my humble opinion, is actually very good. I thoroughly enjoyed every bite. There's good beers to go with the pizza selection. Also, there are good choices if you happen to be a vegetarian. The staff are attentive and provides fast service. Like I always say, if you're in the area, try the place once, and decide for yourself. I will be coming back to try some of the other options. Enjoy!

Best Pizza Pie in the NE, we eat here all the time, from whole pizza to slices. It was used to be Bella Facia, now called Bella Pizza. Lots of good vegetarian, meat, and gluten-free options. Calzones, salads, and garlic knots are also options. Show up for trivia night and get a beer or glass of wine or a drink. Lots of choices, get you growler if need be.

I came here with a friend who is a regular at this place, and we received the most excellent service. They have a lot of special pizza recipes from which to choose, but even more impressive is the options they have ready-made at a low price. They change up the lunch menu with a couple of different specials, and I absolutely loved what they had when I visited. I would definitely come back for more, it's such a good price and tastes fantastic! Awesome people here too, you can tell they love what they do!

Bella was, for me, the right place at the right time. We were on our way to a show at the Alberta Rose Theater in the next block, and were looking for something that would be quick enough to get to the show with enough lead time to snag good seats. Bella delivered - we split their large green salad and a calzone. The salad was great, with greens that were a substantial step up from iceberg, plenty of dressing, and a nice mix of onions and chickpeas (we asked them to hold the peppers). It was the calzone, however, that I found to be the standout. A lot of places, if they have calzones at all, tend to have them premade, usually with at least one ingredient that I don't like. Bella, however, makes them to order, with your choice of three toppings. Yay! Our choice of pork sausage, mushroom, and caramelized onion (thank you to the lady at the counter that offered onion options when we ordered) came with the perfect amount of melty cheese to make me happy. It sometimes seems that only me and Ben, from Parks and Rec, are fans of the calzone. But, if you're part of the tribe as well, I highly recommend a visit to Bella.

A good place to grab a quick slice of pizza or a whole pie. I tried a more unique slice they had this time- a mustard base pizza, it was actually pretty good. The staff here was nice and helpful.

Driving down Alberta and being hungry I stumbled across Bella Pizza and decided to stop in for lunch. I had the lunch special, slice of pizza and a side salad and both were very good. I will be back.

Bella Pizza is great. Their pizza is absolutely delicious; the best I've had in a long while. The employees are extremely friendly and keep the place real. Their atmosphere fits their establishment so well: a small local pizza place that puts heart into their work. When bored, there's a TV that sometimes plays television. In short. If I'm feeling down, I can count for the quality food and customer service to lift my spirits.
