Bella Italia - Ardmore

Pizza was a soupy mess, so greasy that when you try to pick up a slice all the sauce and cheese slides off. The toppings were kind of in weird clump on like 2 slices. The fries were a greasy soggy lump of mush. Everything is a gross greasy inedible mess that went straight in the trash.

Buffalo chicken cheesesteak is just chicken and cheese, no sauce and rather bland for $14. Pizza is okay at best. Definitely one of most overrated places around

My youngest son loves pizza, so we stopped here on the way home. It was our first time here. We were greeted with good hospitality that ALWAYS is a plus in our book. The pizza was delicious to say the least. He had cheese. I had buffalo chicken and a garden slice We will be back

So good I can't believe we didn't have them until now. Let's just say that even with delivery, the pizza tasted amazing! Almost like I would be fine not ever trying NY pizza. We ordered the original with mushrooms. They gave so many mushrooms! The pizza tasted amazing! The cheese blend was comforting but novel (not sure what the exact cheese mix is). Also the pizza hit all the right notes without feeling greasy or too salty. Like I could enjoy delicious pizza that feels healthy (or at least not heavy) and not have to chug a glass of water. The crust was crispy and satisfying without feeling too doughy. Also, I think the reasonable amount of salt comes from their confidence as cooks and purveyors of ingredients. Even the Italian salad was savory and satisfying and perfectly seasoned. The pickles and peppers were insanely delicious (in a low-key way, like you went to an Italian friend cook's house for dinner) and the vinaigrette was awesome! The homemade meatballs were also perfect! Would totally want to order this exact menu again (maybe try another pizza...the margherita, perhaps)? It was so good we forgot to take pictures. The food just disappeared. Our toddlers were able to independently feed themselves. They loved it!

Bella Italia is a favorite spot of mine growing up in Ardmore. This was my first stop after being out of the country for a month. So I had to get a cheesesteak! Good size roll, plenty of meat and super friendly staff. I would have liked more fries with the order but they were perfect otherwise.
