This delightful restaurant never disappoints. Very good food, great people, even the patrons all seem like one big family. Linguine with clam sauce, red or white, fish fries that you can have baked or broiled, bread brought right to the table, a staff that is eager to please. Very casual, you won't be disappointed.

If you want the best experience at this restaurant ask for Angelina as your server. She is so beautiful and always serves with a smile even when she's so busy she still finds the time to get to all her tables with patience, she is so amazing and polite I love her and I ask for her everytime I go here.

First off I wanna say I've known this family for 20 years and my grandpa has known them for about 30-40 years and they never disappoint they are so hardworking, they're working day in and day out no breaks no days off. They work so hard!! It's also amazing how consistent their taste and quality of food is ! Everything is fresh NEVER frozen!! Their Eggplant is the best eggplant EVER, it's sliced super thin and then breaded and fried and it is so tender it melts in your mouth!!!! The chicken parmigiana is real fresh chicken breast that's breaded and then baked to tender deliciousness!! The sauce is cooked for hourss with meatballs, sausage , onions, peppers, garlic and pork to flavor it! It's absolutely delicious must try!!! Labellas is also very accommodating when it comes to big groups! The servers are always super friendly, fast and efficient! The hostess's always greet you with a warm smile as soon as you walk in the door! You can't beat these prices either!! You get so much food for a great price and nowadays that really matters! Walk in and try this place you'll be surprised and very satisfied and happy!!

Been going here for many years but never before reviewed it. Always reliable, good food at fair prices. They are one of the few area restaurants that serve veal margarita which consists of layered breaded veal cutlets, ham and breaded eggplant cutlets, smothered in melted mozzarella cheese, and served in a white wine sauce. Marco's used to serve it, but it's no longer on the menu although he once made it for me upon request, Amici makes it, and Italian Village makes it. They are good at all three places, but La Bella's portion and price probably makes it the best. Like that they let you get your pasta side dish parmed for a small upcharge. My wife's white pizza was very good as well, as was the small antipasto, which can serve four or more probably. My only complaints are that they use sub rolls for bread instead of crusty bread that would be preferable. And they don't have to go cups for my leftover soda pop. Not a complaint, but since they have sausage and peppers, I wish they had veal and peppers, and since they have other shrimp dishes, I wish they had shrimp Parm. I'm sure they would make both of those excellent as well.

I was on the fence about coming here because of the bad reviews. But I'm glad I gave it a try. The eggplant Parmesan was in a word - PERFECT. The best blend of flavors for the eggplant, the sauce, everything. It was oven baked and the cheese on top was melted, chewy and delicious. The eggplant itself was cooked to perfection. However, my dinner partner hated his chicken Milanese and sent it back. Said it was the worst he ever had. The service was - meh. The waitress seemed to have an attitude. The atmosphere was perfect for me. Quiet. Nicely lit. Good crowd. Music wasn't too loud or overpowering.

Stopped here for lunch with a couple of friends. They have a lunch menu, but what I wanted was on the dinner menu. I ordered the chicken picata. My friends got the chicken parm and eggplant parm. Both were huge and served with a side of maccaroni & sauce. We had a large loaf of warm bread to share. My chicken picata kinda surprised me. It had no capers. I did look at the menu after & say papers weren't mentioned. This tasted more like lemon chicken with a strong lemon flavor. Not horrible but just not what i expected. Service was fast and friendly. I'll be returning with my husband so he can try their tripe. 2024-37

The food here is always good, I've never gotten a bad meal here all though this portions are big and I typically get the fettuccine Alfredo and I can get two more meals off of my leftovers. The staff is always nice and the restaurant its self isn't bad.

Very low key casual restaurant that is always consistently slammed with people in the evening. I've been a fan over 20 years now. Their " red sauce" is even enjoyed by my very picky Italian family. Hard to get the approval there! Chicken marsala is a fav, parm Pizza, wings and recently tried and enjoyed the garlic parm! Will return!
