Italian restaurant Pizza Place Cafe
Serving Tampa the best Italian food for over 35 years! Bella's has been open for nearly 36 years, and for good reason. A casual, rustic ambience with a wood-fired oven and indoor and outdoor seating attract a sophisticated crowd of foodies of all ages. The restaurant's authentic Italian fare is delicious, from the paper-thin carpaccio with garlic, olives, capers, and basil, to the old-fashioned spaghetti and meatballs. Read more

Warm weather is on the way. Get refreshed with our Sweet and Sour Strawberry Salad — mixed field greens tossed with fresh strawberries, toasted almonds, fontina and asiago cheeses in a sweet and sour sesame dressing.
