Bella Italia West - Fort Worth

It was a Friday evening and we decided to grab dinner here since we have been wanting to try it. I was in nice jeans, a shirt and sweater, my husband was in nice jeans a collared shirt with a hoodie on top, and our cousin was wearing the same as my husband. It was not very crowded at all. Once we walked into the restaurant, the hostess had her back to us and turned around. She said Do you have reservations ? I said oh no, sorry, did we need them? The snotty hostess looked at my husband up and down while she said Yes and you don 't meet the dress code . While saying this she completely turned her nose up at us and I just couldn 't believe that we were being victims of discrimination based on the way we were dressed. There were no signs stating they had a dress code. I have never experienced this type of profiling before. I mean a dress code? Have you seen the outside of your restaurant? It looks like a dump. We all could have walked right into Ruth 's Chris dressed like we were and no one would have turned their nose up at us like you did. Lastly, in the shape our economy is in today, should you really be turning people away when they are willing to spend money at your establishment. I can promise you that my husband alone can buy that restaurant from you if he wanted to. Don 't judge people by the way they are dressed. I guess you lost three customers tonight who were interested in supporting your local business. We will not even attempt to go back when we are properly dressed and have reservations. Good luck with your business.

The menu on Google is not the correct menu! If you call and order take-out be careful that you are looking at the correct menu! I learned a very expensive lesson about this. While the food was cooked correctly and the flavors were okay, it was not what I was expecting or wanting.

We have been here many times and usually go for my birthday. It’s the place I always pick. It never disappoints. It’s a small restaurant that doesn’t care about mass producing food to serve high volumes of customers. Everything is extremely fresh and is prepared by the order. Yes, it’s more than all the bad chain restaurants, but you get what you pay for. I’ve had the quail, Buffalo mozzarella, and Italian sausage appetizers. They are all so good it’s hard to choose. I’ve had fish, multiple Buffalo cuts, the filet, ribeye, bone in ribeye, etc. it’s all amazing. Can’t wait to go back.

They don’t honor the prices listed on Google Maps. Charging $30 when it’s advertised as $16 feels excessive.
