    The classic italian restaurant, Bella Roma, can still serve me a dinner and welcome me properly after half past eleven in the night.
    The italian waiters are very professional and polite and ready to give the best service.
    The steak I got was the biggest ever, and the pasta e fagioli (beans soup) as starter very tasty.
    I will be back sure! I felt I was in Italy.

    Bella Roma is the best place where to go for a romantic dinner in Manchester, good italian wines and massive portions of steak and duck with a lot of vegetables. Have been a little refurbished from a couple of months and now looks much better.
    You can still practice the your skill in italian language chatting with the staff.
    A place open till late.

    A friend and I went for a late lunch to Bella Roma on Saturday. I have never had such disappointing food! I ordered 'strips of beef fillet with pasta in a tomato and red wine sauce'. I actually received a bowl of pasta with what looked and tasted like a tin of stewing steak dumped in it - full of lumps of fat. My friend ordered 'seafood risotto', and received a large lump of congealed rice, with tiny rubbery pieces of 'seafood' and what tasted like about half a pound of salt mixed in. Needless ...

    Had some really good evenings at Bella Roma and have always had good food and service. At my last visit I had a lovely steak good wine and a home made dessert. It is like being in an Italian trattoria in Italy. After the meal we were treated to homemade limoncello! Lovely. Would highly recommend to anyone who appreciates REAL Italian food.

    Manager spent most of the time having a loud argument with a waitress, only stopped when i called him over to ask him what the dessert I had been served with was. He insisted (as did the waitress) that it was chocolate mousse when it obviously wasn't (plain sponge and very sweet white ice cream) with a very sweet caramel sauce. No wonder the restaurant was practically empty on a Saturday night.

    Where to start with Bella Roma.
    18 people booked, deposit paid and receipt received.
    Turn up at the correct time. "Who are you. You are not expected." Our reservation was not known by the "waiter" and there was no way we could eat there. What about our deposit? "I am only the "waiter" I cannot give you back your deposit as I have no record of it". But the receipt has the restaurant name, address and phone number on. "You cannot have it back".
    So eventually, after some debate, we can ...

    Bella Roma was not only bland and of poor quality, but resulted in a night of being ill.
    The dessert quantities were huge, but apparently that was due to it being prepared by a new and inexperienced member of staff. Manager came over and apologied for the mountain of creme caramel that was put before me!

    I went here on Valentines Day a few years back - I have since never returned.

    Bella Roma is the worst restaurant in Manchester that I have experienced. For a start, I had to pay an expensive deposit up front - fair enough, I thought this wasn't standard practice, but reluctantly I agreed.

    Did this guarantee me good service and a decent seat? Sadly not.

    It was a particularly cold February in Manchester and the owner oh so kindly put us right near the door, which he failed to shut proper ...
