Worth the drive and I don’t understand bad reviews! This is NOT Olive Garden, this has some authentic options. The bread was hot and fresh served with garlic butter. At first, I thought it was olives but the butter was fabulous with chunks of garlic in it. As per previous reviews, the Calamari is a great appetizer. The table next to us made me jealous with their bruschetta. I’m definitely trying that the next time. My husband did build your own pasta. There was a slight mess up but it ended up for the best. I had the Lemon Veal with mushrooms (don’t remember the name) and it was AMAZING! Ambiance is wonderful. I can see why this place gets packed. I love that they warn you ahead of time of extra costs … like cake fee if you bring your own. Any extra fees are noted in the menu and there is a fee added for credit card. This is very refreshing and signs of an honest business when they make it very obvious. My hubby and I will 100% be driving back here when we are craving Italian.

We had high expectations going to Bella Sera. Howeve, we were ea but disappointed. They messed up our order when it came to our pizza and didn't offer to fix it. Our server wasn't the best. Our pasta dishes were good, if I were to go again it would be for the pasta not the pizza.

The Alfredo pasta with chicken was delicious, but the appetizers in my opinion, were not. I was a little disappointed since that’s their most popular one, it was the bread 🥖 with vinaigrette with the tomatoes. Other than that the service was also great.

First time trying this at my last visit in El Paso and it did not disappoint. I have heard many good things of this restaurant and finally was able to try it. I will say food is impeccable. Service is amazing and fast did not have to wait for a table and the waiter helped us with the difficult decisions of trying to choose a plate, he was helpful and knowledgeable in everything and always made sure our drinks were full, and our table was always clean

Not sure what the bad reviews are about but…. I travel through the states and take great pleasure in finding good wholesome fine dining establishments. I love Italian food and it’s hard to find the authentic flavor but this place has what it takes. It stays busy but no wait today and the service was excellent. We were seated upstairs and it was cozy and intimate. All the meals on our table were packed with flavor, the salad was everything it should be (real greens etc). I had the fettuccini with shrimp and mushrooms in garlic sauce and it was delightful. The eggplant parm came out hot fresh out of the oven and the chicken florentina was huge. The tomato basil soup was phenomenal. It’s close to the base and a good ambiance (family friendly). Good prices. Thank you!!!

Had lunch on a Saturday, our waiter Uri did not tell us about the lunch specials, strike 1. We had to repeat our requests throughout our lunch, what are order was, more bread, refill ice water etc. Strike two. Then Uri spilled tea on my cousin who had lunch with us. It almost seemed intentional. Strike three. The food was good as always, I had lasagna and my wife had spaghetti with meat sauce. When we go back we'll ask for another waiter if we get Uri again.

Food and service were good. The restaurant was FREEZING and there was litter all over the floor and it was filthy. We paid $80 USD for 2 people.

My wife and I went on New Year's Eve. "Ali" was our server and she was TREMENDOUS AND OUTSTANDING and so FRIENDLY AND CHARMING! She took care of our menu options, dressed our desert (Tiramisu) deliciously, and had us never needing a thing throughout our meal! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND you ask for "Ali" when you go. She will most definitely be our request every time! As for the food, what can I say, but OUTSTANDING, DECADENT, SUPERB, PERFECTLY COOKED, and MELT IN YOUR MOUTH DELICIOUS! We had the FRIED CALAMARI for our appetizer and they did not hold back on the portion. It was light, crispy, perfectly cooked, and very tasty! HIGHLY RECOMMEND this for your meal starter! My wife had the SALMONE DE DIABLO (an array of shrimp, calamari, and mussels on top of a generous cut of salmon in a spicy "Diablo" sauce), and it was cooked to perfection, so flavorful, and more than a one meal serving (plenty left over to take home to enjoy, again!)! I thoroughly enjoyed the "Chef's Special" 3-course meal. It came with 2 perfectly cooked medium rare, melt in your mouth tenderloin medallions, with crisp and tasty asparagus straws on top all covered in a red wine mushroom sauce. Soooooo good and cooked to perfection! I was allowed to exchange the salad for the lobster bisque, which my wife had, as well, and we were not disappointed, at all. It was so creamy, flavorful, with plenty of lobster pieces and just the right spice of heat. And I was also allowed to change the chocolate cake in cherry sauce to their signature "Tiramisu" all dressed and drizzled in chocolate sauce and coffee powder, perfectly, by our server, "Ali"! She did a wonderful job and that desert was also more than a one meal sitting, as was my dinner. Plenty of leftovers to take home, and ENJOY FOR ANOTHER DAY, which we most definitely did! Therefore, needless to say, our vote for BEST ITALIAN RESTAURANT IN EL PASO IS "TRATTORIA BELLA SERA" on Yarbrough & Montana! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND you make this your next "date night" dinner", family outing, or to satisfy that craving for EXCELLENT ITALIAN FOOD, and ask for "Ali"! You WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED! We sure were not! We will be back, again and again! Thank you to all of you who made this New Year's Eve a most memorable occasion! Well done and see you soon!

Fantastic. That's it. That's all. The restaurant is quite large and airy, but busy. Our server, Chris, was pleasant and attentive. And the food is authentic and so delicious. I had the farfalle Bella sera and hubby had baked ravioli. We would be hard pressed to choose one if we had to decide between the two. We will be back.

So where to start?? I can't believe I've never wrote a review of my FAVORITE ITALIAN place in EL PASO! I have been coming here for 14 years!! Back when they had the place in MONTANA! I think I just start eating and am transported and I'm in a happy place, I never take a pic or maybe I think it's all my little secret not to share!!?? I dunno, LOL! But I have not had a bad meal here. I have had ONE where The chef got a little heavy handed on the salt on the lasagna once. But that was as close as it ever came to me ever having a complaint. The location on N. Yarborough shares a building with one of those non-gambling game rooms. But once you walk inside... oh you are taken from Hot, dreary, sweaty El Paso to the opulence of Italy. BEAUTIFUL statues, subdued lighting, even upstairs dining up a gorgeous stair way, real napkins and silverware. Italian music playing lightly in the background. The smell of Baskets of fresh baked bread and house makes dipping olive oil winding their way thru the room to anxiously waiting tables of diners. This is the perfect place for a date night. And anniversary or birthday celebrations, a big family dinner. Or just come in and grab an upscale lunch for not a big hit to the pocket book. All made fresh with care and love. Waitpersons dressed formally in Black. A place to have hushed dinner conversation or a joyous happy occasion with good Italian food, drinks and fun. This day I had the lunch special of which they about 20! For only $12 and comes with salad or soup, your choice, Bread and ICED Tea! I got the Fettuccine Gambi e ... OH HECK, I can't ever say it right in Italian, it's basically a fettuccine in a cream sauce similar to Alfredo with medium size shrimps and mushrooms. It's so so SO good and the lunch portion covers a whole platter!! I also had a Caesar salad, though I usually get the seafood soup, which I highly recommend, but I felt like salad today but I ate before I remembered " HEY, take a pic!" The bread was hot from the oven, brushed with butter. And The olive oil for dipping Made in house has whole garlic cloves. Some red pepper, and dried rosemary. It's so good with that bread dipped in or you can fishier some of the garlic cloves and spread them on the bread like butter.. such a treat. Do lunch I'm you are in and out In about an hour maybe an hour and 15 minutes. That's pretty good for a sit down lunch. My waitperson was super attentive, my tea glad never got less than half full before he brought another. Thelma's a wide range of delectable desserts, my personal fave is the old standby, Tiramisu. They do a really good version. With plenty of mascarpone layer... and not too much cookie, I like that. Their dinner menus is also a value die the amount of food you get. I think my dish goes to $17? For dinner and you have to buy your drink extra. But you get about twice as much pasta dish? I don't know where I'd put it!! I'm always stuffed at lunch! Looking for some good Italian and tired of the (OG) one?? Be sure and eat local and go by Trattoria Bella Sera. You won't be disappointed.

this is definitely one of my favorite restaurants in el paso. the portions are so generous, the service is great, the ambiance is nice. the prices are also so affordable!! the free order of bread always hits and i love how there's an option to either get a soup or salad with your pasta order. i've tried the caesar salad and tomato soup which were both good. the tomato soup is so creamy and thick. i always end up getting the same pasta dish every time i come. it's the pomodoro dish and i add grilled chicken to it. i wish the noodles were chewier but it doesn't bother me. the chicken always comes out super juicy and tender too. we also tried their Margherita pizza but i would skip out on that. i would say their pasta dishes are definitely more worth it here. we also tried their lemon berry dessert cake and it was rich and creamy. super sweet! by the end of our meal we're always so full and satisfied

We just moved to El Paso and wanted to find our new go-to Italian restaurant. Trattoria was highly recommended to us, so we picked to go for our first date night. The ambience was very nice, even though it was packed! We waited 6 minutes to be seated and was immediately served by a very sweet waitress. The staff works well together, all helping each other keep drinks full, deliver bread and take the time to talk to customers to see how things were going. The service alone was a 10/10. But the food was INCREDIBLE. I got the manicotti with garlic toast and a Caesar salad. The salad was fresh, the garlic toast was soft and delicious. The manicotti was perfect. Just the right amount of ricotta to sauce ratio and the portion was huge. The fresh bread was an added bonus. We ordered a cheesecake and chocolate cake dessert to go. Both were soft, full of flavor and absolutely delicious. For our first time, they left a lasting impression and I can not wait for another date night here soon!

I love the food. staff was friendly. It is one of the best here in El Paso. I don't think Tomato Basil soup is not on the menu but they had it.

This is one of my favorite restaurants in El Paso. I tend to lean more with chicken but have enjoyed a variety of the entrees. The staff here moves pretty quickly to customer requests and provide great service.

I love this family-owned gem that serves delicious food. We enjoy dining in because of the great service, and we have also enjoyed the "family dinner" to go for family functions, which easily feeds a large crowd.

10/10 Best Italian food I've ever had , even compared to San Antonio's/ west Texas . So good HUGE portions! The bread and olive oil was to die for . Will be back when i go back into El Paso. Had to wait 30 min which is ok to be expected. Ambiance was super chill , beautiful place inside.

Jillian was our server. She was very attentive and very nice. Actually, everyone here was nice. We were a party of 3 around 3p and had a 15 min wait not bad. Seated in the nicely decorated dining area. They also have eating upstairs for dinner. Very Verona! Sculptures nice touch. Menu is so good. We ordered polenta with bolognese, fried calamari, pasta carbonara, Gorgonzola gnocchi, lobster bisque, lasagna, and a lovely bottle of sweet red wine. Everything was amazing! Yay chefs!!

Horrible service. Horrible food. Lacked flavor. Can't own up to their mistakes that they made. Spoke to the manager and he did absolutely nothing about it. They were being very rude and unkind. Would not return back. Sent back food 3 times with the same plate. Manger processed to blame us for there mess up. Manger rudely talked to my mother in front of the whole restaurant. Been going to this establishment for a decade and never had any problems. It's so sad that this is what's happening to this store. Personally knowing the owner we will be speaking to Mario as well. The chair also broke mid service. Ended the night with McDonalds.

Me and my husband took my mom there, she loved it I had been there once a while ago but forgotten how good this place was! The waitress came out and she was very nice and friendly, helped us with any questions of the menu we had, laughed with us a bit and was very attentive! Loved her, the whole style of the restaurant is very cute and loving perfect for dates, or nice family dinners, lunches! They have beautiful lights hanging from the ceiling and cute decor. It looks bigger inside than it does outside. Now for the food! It was AMAZING!!! the bread you get is nice and fluffy on the inside and crisp on the outside and it comes with this delicious garlic oil spread, with our entrees we got soups, that was the BEST tomato soup I had! The portions are big as well! I didn't even finish my food and was debating getting desert to go! This is such a lovely establishment and definitely will come again with friends, family and the hubby :)

Always a 5 Star service, food experience. Christina and Mario have been serving El Paso for years with what's truly, the best Italian cuisine this side of Italy. When you know the background of Chef Christina it's no surprise why Bella Sera has won numerous awards and El Paso is blessed to have a Michelin style restaurant in their backyard.

Last minute choice with the family on a Thursday night. Headed in and surprisingly no wait, we were immediately seated in the center of the restaurant. The place was full but not packed. The ambience was incredible looked like I stepped out of El Paso. Being my first time, I choose the manicotti plate with marinara sauce. It came with a salad and I choose the house salad. My meal arrived in 10-15 minutes. The plate was piping hot and I could see the heat rising above it. As I cut into it, the cheese was melted and stringy. So delicious and flavorful. It was a full plate and I ate it all. There's a reason this place is voted best Italian for infinity... My next meal will be lasagna love it..

I never expected to move to El Paso and my favorite restaurant be an Italian place. SOOOOO GOOD! We splurged on this restaurant, as it's not cheap. With that being said, it is worth every penny. I ordered the gnocchi. The gnocchi was cooked in house and in a perfect sauce. This place may serve spaghetti and meatballs, but don't come here to order something you can make at home. I would suggest to get one of their delicious appetizers. They have a grainy dip that is covered in a gorgonzola cheese. We were hesitant but tried it. Do it! The outside doesn't match the inside. Go ahead and try it. Can't wait to go back!

Great experience! The salad was delicious and so was the spaghetti. I wish the gnocchi serving was larger, but that's because we're hefty people. Service was great, I'll definitely be back for more.

This place is givin Olive Garden a run for their money! Absolutely everything i have tried here has not disappointed me. I have tried everything from classic spaghetti and meatballs, to their bolognese sauce, to their papparadelle alla pescatore 3 course special. All have been delicious! I would also not be able to resist some form of appetizer and i am almost always going to order some good calamari. I say good because the way they make it here with the small ringlets and tentacles are my fave! Any other form of fried squid is just revolting to me. There was also their marguerita pizza that had amazing toppings like what seemed like sundried tomatoes, fresh basil, and good quality mozzarella. The pizza crust is this beautiful flaky texture that played so well with everything. I have also tried a few of their wines, such as their cab or chardonnay, and they were pleasant. Their desserts are also a must! Their berry mascarpone lemon cake is devilishly good! And their cannoli or spumoni aren't half bad! Setting if the restaurant is so fun and romantic even. Great place for any fun occasion or reason to celebrate!

The wife and I stopped by today for lunch. We both ordered the spaghetti with spicy Italian sausage, house salads and ice tea. The food was outstanding and served perfectly spaced. The service was exceptional. We couldn't ask for a nicer group of people. We were fortunate to meet David, the GM, heck of a nice guy. Very nice and comfortable seating area. We've already planned another visit.

**experience during covid-19 ** This place had the staff wearing masks and also had hand sanitizer available for anyone to use. I believe it's time to update this review. The food here is always amazing. First they serve you some bread with some seasoned oil that just blended with the bread so well. Then you get to choose your plate that usually comes with a salad, soup, or pasta. I chose the house salad, that i did not regret. Then I had chicken marsala with mushrooms and the other plate was orange salmon (also amazing and slightly spicy). Both were amazingly tasty. To top it off we had a coffee cake (turamisu) at the end and it had this wonderful cream on top that wasn't too sweet. Are very enjoyable. Oh yes! Don't forget every Wednesday they have a special where you get $10 off any wine bottle.

Was in El Paso because my dad was hospitalized during their trip, we are from CA. My mom and I saw the reviews and had to try it. We waited 35 mins on a Wednesday night and it was well worth the wait!! Delicious buttered bread, generous portions and great quality food! We ordered polenta with bolognese for an appetizer and cracked up when it arrived... it was a dinner portion! We split the chicken artichoke pasta and were glad we did. Enjoyed polenta and pasta the next 2 days!

Went Thursday 23 March about 7pm, they close at 8. Were seated right away, attentive and friendly staff. The fresh bread and roasted garlic olive oil for it was delicious. Followed with the homemade sausage bites appetizer which was nice and spicy. I had pasta carbonara which was the cream type (I prefer the egg version although not that many people make it because if you screw it up you have scrambled eggs instead of a creamy egg sauce); it was well seasoned and the pancetta was perfect, overall very tasty. My coworker had a seafood pasta dish that he said was delicious. If they had half stars I probably would have gone down one-half, because I enjoyed the place more when it was in the little old gas station. However, given how much they scaled up they did a pretty good job.

This review is a delight to write because so few restaurants can match the unbelievable service, food, atmosphere, price, and overall joy of visiting Trattoria Belle Sera. The staff was top-notch and made our evening dinner delightful. The food was perfect. This was the case even though we didn't precisely order off the menu. This meant the chief had to put even more effort into our request. All four of us thoroughly enjoyed our choices, and when one of those customers was my 18-month-old grandson, it was a real challenge. Not just for the chief but the staff. My son's glass never once hit empty, which is a full-time service request. Even the food's temperature was perfect. The restaurant's ambiance is ideal for a big group or a romantic dinner for two. The music, lighting, and temperature never once was an issue. I know, without any doubt, the next time I'm in El Paso, TX, and hungry for the best Italian food in the city, this will be the place to come to, and I highly recommend the same for you!

Amazing food!! Bring your appetite. The chef's 3 course special was on point. I am not a fan of mushrooms but there wasn't one left on my plate at the end. Our server was very friendly and attentive. Place was packed on a Wednesday night and I get why. Will definitely be going back.

Wonderful dining experience! Very authentic Italian food, prices are great and service is excellent! We got there at about 4 pm on a Thursday which seems to be perfect- no wait. Adorable interior but the star is the food. Fresh hit bread with garlic herbed oil comes out to start you. We got entrees, one with side salad, one with Caesar salad and one with Pasta E Fagioli soup. The salads were fresh , delicious and large. The soup was hot and flavorful. We ordered the Farfalle Bella Sera, Penne Quattro Formaggi and the Mario Special. Portions are huge and the food comes out piping hot. Everything was delicious. I had the Penne Quattro, which was absolutely delicious. An Italian comfort food. And I had a side of the meatballs, which were moist and delicious. Also, the service was impeccable, our server Nick was incredible. I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a delicious meal that is reasonably priced. Plenty of free parking and easy to get to. I hope you enjoy it as much as we did. Also this is a family business not a chain!!

If you are looking for great Italian food and wonderful service you must try Trattoria Bella Sera! The atmosphere and decor is very nice and they have seating to accommodate large groups/parties. Our waiter, Jason, was fantastic in service and very quick to make sure we were always taken care of. The baked ravioli had amazing flavor and so did the lobster bisque! The menu is large with lots of different meal options. I would be back again no doubt to try even more great Italian dishes! Make sure you get a piece of tiramisu to finish your meal!

if I could give this place ten stars, I would. Service was exceptional, truly amazing. We were seated quickly, our server was attentive and personable, and the atmosphere was very romantic. They give bread y'all - ya know how rare that is these days?! AND IT IS DELICIOUS BREAD! Like moist, fresh, hot bread that melts in your mouth. Zucchini fries, salads, pasta, chicken parm, even the kids meals - everything was delicious. They made a mistake with the food, and our server comped us a cannoli immediately without hesitation and fixed the mistake. We will definitely be back. One of our new favorites.

I arrived early for supper on a Saturday at about 1700 and the dining room was already pretty full. Luckily I was able to get a table without having to wait. I had already done my research online and knew what I wanted to order. The server quickly stopped by for my drink order and asked if I wanted an appetizer. For appetizers I ordered the calamari fritti, and it was a very large portion for the cost. There was a good mix of the different "shapes" of calamari and it was all battered/fried to absolute perfection. The marinara wasn't as flavorful as I like, but that is because it is more of a traditional Italian marinara vs the American version. Cannot ding them for staying true to the Italian flavors. For a main entrée I got Segovia's special, which is several types of seafood in a white wine sauce and linguini noodles. There was a BUNCH of seafood in the plate including several pieces of calamari "with legs". Lots of small shrimp, a couple of jumbo pieces of shrimp, 3-4 mussels, 2-3 clams, and a scallop. One word of warning is that the clams and mussels are not shucked and come in their shells. Not a big deal, unless you are just taking huge forkfuls of food and shoveling it in. The dish was also marked as being spicy, and when I asked the server she said that they could make it less spicy. I actually asked for it to be made a little spicier. The entree also came with a soup or salad, and I chose the seafood soup. Also known as Cesserola Di Mare. Everything about this little cup of soup was amazing. Very good. I heard another table ask about getting to-go orders of it, and the waitress said that they sell it in much larger quantities too. Obviously I am not the only one that found it delicious. Yes, I know that I ordered all seafood dishes which surprised several people that I have told to. I must admit that I was a bit wary of ordering seafood in El Paso, but was definitely pleased with my choices. I would definitely go again if I get a craving for Italian food while in El Paso. Great food. Great service. Highly recommend. One word of warning though. If you get a ride here from a popular rideshare app, be careful and use the address. For some reason it has the wrong address and I just booked a ride using the restaurant name. I wound up going to a location about 1 mile away from where I actually wanted.

I absolutely love this place. When you walk in the restaurant is set up to look like an open courtyard in Italy. It's very pretty. The service is always really good as is the food. Come hungry because their portions are surprisingly big and well priced. We got the calamari for an appetizer. I got a house salad and he got a Cesar. I love their balsamic vinaigrette that comes with their salad. The bread also comes with a homemade dipping oil that has garlic gloves, peppercorns, and rosemary in it. I ordered the lobster ravioli for dinner and he got the segovia. Both were amazing. For desert I took the waitress's opinion and ordered the lemon berry cake. All around great food.

We tried this place because it was my daughter's birthday & she wanted Italian...we were from out of town so trusted Yelp to help us out. Well it didn't disappoint...there was a 30-40 minute wait but it was also Mother's Day weekend. We had the sausage bite appetizer along with the delicious bread served with roasted garlic oil to start...both were a hit!! For our entree we had lasagna, 2 create your own pastas and pollo limone. We all loved what we ordered...all fresh & piping hot! Lastly we ordered a slice of the lemon berry cake because our server said it was "heaven in your mouth"....well she wasn't lying...it was absolutely delicious. We should have taken pictures but we didn't...our empty plates at the end should be proof enough. As we were leaving my 9 year old said "I think I gained 20 pounds"!

Tried the food with a group of friends. I got the lasagna and my 2 friends tried the sphagetti carbonara and fettuccine alfredo. One of my friends ordered the pizzeta fresca. The Pizzeta Fresca appetizer that we had for the table was very well made; simple and a good appetizer to try out . The complementary bread was fresh but the garlic with oil provided was stale, unfortunately. The main course also comes with either a soup or salad. The soup I had was crema di pomodoro which is decently flavored but too thick. The lasagna wasn't my favorite given that it was too doughy and the layers were not well spread. It was smothered with too much tomato sauce which made it less appetizing. I had a bite of the sphagetti carbonara and fettuccine alfredo; these dishes were well made but maybe I would have given better rating if the lasagna was better prepared, overall it is worth a try.

The food here is amazing, service is great the only downside is that it's a little far away. The exterior doesn't do the interior any justice but the food speaks for itself and shows the quality for which this place is know for. The portions were large and the ambiance lighting with the Italian design really set the mood. Will most likely visit again.
