It was a wonderful family style dinner with extremely high quality food! Great portion sizes too. Expectations were exceeded. And the Christmas decor in the hotel was beautiful. We recommend adding on the truffle au jus, absolutely delicious.

We have been coming here for since the year it opened, and are disappointed that the quality of the food and service has slipped slightly but steadily over time. The wait staff and bar service are all very polite, but not as accomplished and knowledgeable as we’ve had. The pizzas have become too wet, and the crusts now a wee soggy, even with no extra toppings. They seem underbaked; the crust no longer has any crunch with minimal or no brown on the bottom. This is still our favorite pizza in the area, but now only barely so. We hold out hope that things will improve for Tutta Bella, and all of us, in 2025.

Food is amazing but more importantly the service by Pedro and his wife Letizia is pristine. The pizza is to die for, as is every dish in the restaurant. Prices are reasonable.
