Good Points: Excellent food especially the pizzas and steaks. Very Italian atmosphere. Good service and pleasant staff. Italian music and people. No frozen food here.
Bad Points: None.
General comments: 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.

"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 ...
