Bella Pizzeria - Carmel — Restaurant in Carmel

My teen son and I had a long day of errands today. One of our stops happened about lunchtime, and as I returned to my vehicle I noticed we'd parked nearly in front of Bella Pizzeria. The sign listed calzones, a personal favorite, as an offering, so we decided on a whim to eat there.

I'm so glad we did! I opted to try a pizza roll, and my son got a calzone. We also ordered "garlic knots", basically soft breadsticks in bite sized form. Everything was delicious! The knots had just the right amount of garlic for us, and had a bit of a pretzely texture: a sort of thin shell on the outside, but soft chewy bread goodness on the inside.

The crust on my pizza roll was on point: a thin crispy "shell" to bite through on the outside, but softer inside. Pizza crust is a favorite part for me, so the ends were satisfyingly crusty and without much filling to interrupt the enjoyment. The middle had lots of filling (beware how you hold it or you may lose a few bites if you aren't over a plate) so you won't feel at all cheated. I couldn't finish the whole roll, but my son happily dispatched it.

His calzone was too hot to eat at first, but he enjoyed it thoroughly. We'll happily...

I ordered one extra large cheese and one extra large pepperoni Sicilian, because they sent 50% off coupon. Everything was good as I expected. Thanks again for the coupon.

Jan. 3rd, 2019 I ordered 2 extra large plain pizzas. I like this place as soon as they opened the first one in Carmel. Because this place remains me NYC. As far as I know, if your pizza tastes bad, you will be closed down in 6 months in NYC. But the pizzas I ordered today were very salty sauce and salty dough. That’s why the pizzas taste bad overall. I expected they should be more careful in quality and quantity control in the near future. 8/23/19 I ordered two extra large pies of cheese and Bella. Somehow the cheese pie was too salty and the Bella was used minced garlic from a jar. Who’s using minced garlic for pizza? I am from New York City and the most of pizza shops use slices garlic on their pizza for the look, the taste and the smell . The smell is totally different with sliced garlic and minced one. The worst pizza I ever...

We've ALWAYS loved Bella especially their breadsticks, but tonight we got an under done pizza that tasted HORRIBLE. It was also delivered with all the toppings stuck to the top of box. We called and asked to speak to a manager and after waiting for what seemed like forever, they came back and said "your pizza was cooked twice. There is no way it could be undercooked." As if we're just lying about an under cooked pizza. So my husband had to physically drive the pizza up to the store to prove it was undercooked. Which completely defeats the purpose of delivery. Upon arrival with the pizza they continue to say that it was cooked twice and asked "what do you want me to do about it?" We ended up getting our money back, but my goodness they have horrible horrible horrible customer service. For a pizza that isn't necessarily "cheap" they sure don't appreciate their customers. Good news is there are TONS of other pizza places in Carmel/Westfield that are just as delicious if not more delicious and very...
