We've lived within 5 minutes of Piu Bello Pizzeria restaurant for about a year, and it took that long to visit one day for lunch.
I'm torn about Piu Bello, because they do some things excellently, and then other things need a lot of work. Lemme s'plain.
We visited and ordered the following:
Meat lover slice of pizza ($3.95)
Meatball Parmigiana ($10.95)
Gnocchi bolognese ($13.95)
The meatball sub and gnocchi were to go orders, and while we waited, we shared a slice of pizza. Let me tell you, had we stopped with the slice of pizza, it would be 5 stars easily. Crispy crust, bursting with flavor as well as fresh toppings. It's a GOOD slice of pie! They cut it down the middle for us and that one slice looked like 2 regular size slices from your local chain restaurants.
We went home and tried are to go meals, which sadly didn't live up to the pizza. We had a bite or two of the Meatball Parmigiana. I thought it just tasted like cooked/unseasoned ground beef in red sauce. My girlfriend enjoyed it very much. This also came with french fries. I did enjoy the fries a lot. They were very crispy on the outside while soft in the middle. Who knew that an Italian place would get french fries right!
The gnocchi was dense, chewy and i've had much much better. The actual bolognese sauce itself was simply okay, and didn't have strong flavors to support the not so great gnocchi I would not recommend this...at least not as a to go order (or if your drive back home is longer than 5 minutes).
Located in a strip anchored by Kroger, Piu bello doesn't really have many problems in terms of parking, and the seating here is adequate for about 30 people at a time.
Staff here at Piu bello really are great, very friendly and aim to please.
Piu Bello, at least in terms of pizza know exactly what they're doing, so if you'd like a slice, grab a slice and enjoy. I'm sure their other menu items are excellent in restaurant. In our case, the to go items just weren't as great as the pizza slice.
