Piccole cose, grande felicità. ❤️ Little things, great happiness. Tonight, Pastry Chef Nikla has made a little something special: Coppetta alla Crema di Nutella. Coppetta means “little cup” — and this one is filled with a silky blend of mascarpone and Nutella, drizzled with Nutella and topped with a Batticuore, the little heart cookie whose name means “heartbeat.” Simple, decadent and very Italian. Piccole cose, grande felicità. Sometimes the little things really are the best. Tonight ONLY, come see us! 💚🤍❤️

🍷🇮🇹 Our FINAL WINE DINNER of 2026 is coming — and this one has a story to tell. On Sunday, September 13th, we’re traveling from Tuscany to Valpolicella, with four wines from two remarkable estates representing very different chapters of Italian winemaking.

In the hills of Chianti Classico, Fattoria Cinciano makes wine from a centuries-old estate centered around a medieval fortress — classic Tuscany, where Sangiovese and place are inseparable.

Then north to Valpolicella and Monte Santoccio, the tiny estate created by Nicola Ferrari after years working alongside legendary winemaker Giuseppe Quintarelli. Today, Nicola makes his wines in extraordinarily small quantities, including the Amarone that will close our evening.

Old-world history. A new generation carrying forward a legendary tradition. And four wines that take us through two of Italy’s great wine regions:

🍷 2022 Cinciano Chianti Classico
🍷 2018 Cinciano “Camponi” Chianti Classico Riserva
🍷 2022 Monte Santoccio Valpolicella Ripasso
🍷 2020 Monte Santoccio Amarone della Valpolicella

Chef is putting the finishing touches on the menu, and we’re already dreaming about the pairings. ❤️

Sunday, September 13th • 5:30p start
$125 per person
Reservations via OpenTable only — seating is limited.

Four wines. Two extraordinary estates. Two great Italian wine regions. One very Bella evening. Salute! 🍷🇮🇹

There’s pizza — and then there’s Neapolitan pizza. 🍕🇮🇹 Hand-stretched dough, simple ingredients, a blistered crust and that unmistakable char from the oven. It’s one of the things we’re proudest to make at Bella. And every Monday night, every pizza on our menu is just $10! A pretty spectacular deal for a pretty spectacular pizza — on a stunning Kansas City day, no less. ❤️ 🌞

(*$10, dine-in, menu pizzas only, after 4p.)

There are favorites. And then there are Bella favorites. 🇮🇹 Our arancini have been one of them for years—crispy and golden on the outside, warm and savory inside, and made from Mama Imperiale’s recipe right here in our kitchen.
It’s a classic Sicilian dish with a distinctly Bella story: rooted in Italian tradition, made from scratch and good enough to inspire a devoted following of its own (no kidding!)
If you know, you know. If you don’t… might be time to fix that. ❤️🇮🇹

Turns out the weatherman was WRONG — and we’re not mad about it. ☀️ The patio is calling, the weather is beautiful, and it’s Tuesday — which means Half-Price Bottles of Vino. Every Tuesday. Grab a friend, grab a table, and enjoy this unexpectedly perfect weather. See you tonight! 🍷 🍝

Back-to-school season is in full swing, but there are only a few weeks each year when tomatoes taste like THIS. 🍅 That's why August is Caprese season at Bella.

Peak-season local tomatoes meet imported Italian burrata or fresh mozzarella, fresh basil, and exceptional extra virgin olive oil. It's a simple dish—but only because every ingredient has to be extraordinary.

That philosophy extends far beyond our Caprese. Every imported Italian ingredient that comes through our doors is personally selected by Jake. From our cheeses and olive oils to our pasta and pantry staples, authenticity isn't something we talk about—it's how we buy.

Simple. Authentic. Unforgettable. Just the way Italian food is meant to be. 🇮🇹

Lunch, the old-school Italian way. 🇮🇹
Every morning, our kitchen starts from scratch—rolling our meatballs, preparing our Italian sausage, and letting our tomato sauce do what it does best: take its time.

🥖 Meatball Panino
Homemade meatballs • provolone • tomato sauce

🌶️ Sausage Panino
House-made Italian sausage • caramelized onions • roasted peppers • provolone • tomato sauce

Served with a side of rigatoni. Come taste the tradition!

Cloudy skies. Cozy vibes. Pasta, obviously. 🍝 Today we're crushing on our Amatriciana Di Cesare — rigatoni, crispy guanciale, savory onion, and the perfect balance of pecorino, all tossed in our long-simmered spicy tomato sauce.

Named in honor of one of Bella's dearest friends, Cesare, who we miss every day. We think he'd be pretty happy knowing his pasta is still making people smile.

Pair it with a glass of vino, settle in, and enjoy a little la dolce vita. 🇮🇹🍷❤️

07/29/2026

🍝 Happy National Lasagna Day! Mama Imperiale's ridiculously delicious Lasagna alla Bolognese is made from her treasured family recipe with layers of pasta, slow-simmered Bolognese, creamy béchamel, and imported cheeses, then baked until perfectly golden.

Celebrate with us today... or tomorrow. We won't judge. ❤️
