"For the first time my wife and I experienced the Italian ristorante Bella Roma, this last Valentine?s Day. We had searched hard for a place to go for a great steak, and the local steakhouses didn?t have great reviews, so we opted for Bella Roma, and chose the 4 course meal for two! It was in the building of a hotel, which was a little weird for such a fancy place, but I guess that doesn?t matter. It stared with coffees and super soft focaccia bread with olive oil and vinegar to dip in. Very good! I loved that. Then our first of 4 courses was an appetizer. Mine was a fancy salad and cheese with thin raw filet minion slices. I had to think twice about the raw meat but decided to go for it. (I?m not versed in fancy food and couldn?t rename those fancy food names if my life depended on it). It was very good though! My wife had some tomato soup type thing with breadsticks. For the second course we both had salad. Hers was spinach with walnuts and blue cheese, and mine was Ceasers and came with a whole head of romaine lettuce still together! I?d never seen that before. It was okay but was my least favorite part of the meal. The third course, was of course the steak and potatoes. I got the 16oz ribeye medium rare, and my wife got the 8oz filet medium rare. Hers was more medium and mine was more rare, and it was very soft and buttery, although I would have opted for a bit more cooked, but it was still delicious. The potatoes were very good too. I was approaching critical fullness and couldn?t finish the steak if I wanted to save room for the dessert. For desert both my wife and I had the cannolis. They were very good and it took us about 30 minutes to stuff them in our tummies. I recommend the cannolis. The service was also very good, we couldn?t take two sips from our water before they were there refilling the glasses. They were very attentive and our waiter was very nice. This place was not cheap though! This dinner ended up being the most expensive dinner my wife and I had ever had in our lives, but thankfully we are blessed and can afford if for a special occasion like this, and for the first time in years we were able to dine free of our children! (Thanks to our amazing neighbors)! ?? love you guys!! I recommend Bella Roma for fancy occasions, they do make delicious food and have great service!"
