La Bella Cucina

05/12/2026

6 years ago today, we shared that we were closing the doors to La Bella Cucina. Reading over the comments from 6 years ago today was bittersweet, but staying in touch with so many of you through catering and drop-off has been such a blessing.

With that said, if you've been craving your favorite dish from the restaurant, like Penne a la Vodka, Chicken Gorgonzola, Spaghetti and Meatballs, Chicken Picatta, Tiramisu, Calamari Salad, Pescatori, Rigatoni al Forno, or Lamb Shanks, to name a few, we’re still here!

Interested in a drop off or a private party, or are looking for some sauce? Email us and let's put together a menu to curb your cravings!

What was your favorite dish? Tell us in the comments below! We miss you and are still so grateful and blessed to have met so many of you over the 25+ years at La Bella Cucina.

With heavy hearts, after 25 years, La Bella Cucina is closing its doors. Now, more than ever, we feel it is the appropriate time to embark on a new chapter. From Private Catering to small at Home Dinner Parties, we look forward to reinventing ourselves while keeping true to the flavors and experience that you have grown to love while dining with us.

On behalf of the La Bella Cucina staff and the Riccio family, thank you for your unconditional love and support, and more importantly, thank you for being part of our family. Each of you will forever hold a special place in our hearts. Ciao for now.

We’d love to reminisce about the last 25 years with you all. Please share your favorite experiences and meals with us at La Bella Cucina in the comments below!

Checking in to see how our family is doing out there? We miss you all!

Hello Friends and Family!

We wanted to circle around and share that we will be closed until we have been granted permission from the state to be able to have you dine in, so it may be further than April 2nd.

Trust us when we say we miss seeing you and serving you all, but with these changing times, your health and wellbeing is important, hence why we've stayed closed.

Thank you for your love and support over the years and looking forward to see you all soon!

Love Tony + Elena and the La Bella Cucina staff
