Bella Bistro - Kingston, Ontario

Visiting from Michigan, looked up menu online to be disappointed that it wasn't accurate. The food we did decide on was good, the Fungi pizza had good topping but lacked seasoning. The brisket dinner was exceptional. The other 3 pizzas at the table also lacked seasoning, salt needed in the ... table for sure. Waitress was very pleasant and attentive. Very small dining room reservations recommended if more than 4 people. Read more

Service was great, attentive servers and food came out in a decent time considering it was a full house. We ordered Mussels in white wine sauce, I was most disappointed in this as it lacked a lot of flavour and the sauce didn't thicken at at all so it was ... very watery, the mussels themselves were cooked and cleaned well. Calamari was delicious, pizza was amazing, and creme brulee was also very good although it would be nice if it was "dressed up" with maybe some fresh fruit on the side. Moscow mule was also amazing, would have been even better served in copper mug. Overall very good, and will return to try more items. Highly recommend making a reservation Read more

The calamari was phenomenal. Batter super light and crispy! The fish and chips were a little disappointing though. The fish was overcooked and crumbled inside the batter. The fries were good, but soggy. I don't like to waste food amd our server was so nice I didn't want to complain. It ... is a nice little spot though. I'll come back to try something else on the menu!

What an absolute gem, hole in the wall, gotta try it of a Restaurant Bistro and Bar. Friendly staff, Emma was our waitress and she helped us with our orders. She was friendly and fully dedicated to Bella Bistro's impeccable quality in service and food. The fact that the restaurant also kept everyone ... working during COVID, proves the importance of keeping a great workers relationship and happiness with the business. The food didn't take long to cook, started off with a nice B52 coffee, being an Italian special Bistro, coffee is very important and it was perfect. Ordered porc shirt rib starter and a homemade bred plate with homemade butter. As well as a plate of eggplant salad. All was very fresh, hot and delicious. As for the main course, I had the beef short rib with potatoes and a red sauce, melt in your mouth meats and the sauce was rich and a hint of sweet. We've also ordered a quarter lemon chicken, that sits on potatoes and covered with a cheese base white sauce. All in all, an absolute pleasure of a soirée. Be mindful, the plates and meals are no slouch either, large portions on the entrées and main course meals. We didn't have enough space left for cakes....and there's so many choices for desserts. I would recommend Bella Bistro for everyone, would also recommend you'd need to reserve ahead to ensure your seating, it gets very busy. Parking is fairly large, but be mindful that you'll lose some space during winter. Enjoy a night out at Bella Bistro. Read more

We tried Bella Bistro tonight for the first time. My son and I decided to split our dinners which was: Breded stuffed olives as an Happy, the buratta with foccia, and the lemon pizza. We are absaloutley stuffed. The food was delicious, the service was fantastic, and we were able ... to get a table just walking in. My only concern was the loudness of the restaurant - it was a busy night and I had a hard time hearing my son. But that's a personal preference to have a softer atmosphere/ambiance. We will definitely be back. Read more
