La Bella Italian Grill — Restaurant in Garland

"Pleasantly Surprised. Tasty food!" We had previously never seen or heard about this restaurant, but found it on GrubHub and saw that they delivered to our area. My wife ordered the cheese ravioli and also added on garlic bread. I ordered La Bella Salmon and I added on garlic rolls and Alfredo sauce. My wife really enjoyed the cheese ravioli but said there was a little too much cheese on the top and we'll order it without the cheese on top next time. The salmon was out-of-this-world and was packed with juicy flavor. I have a medical condition that makes it difficult for me to chew and swallow so most of the things I eat must be pureed in a blender. A lot of times when you puree something in a blender it loses its distinctive flavor and can become rather bland, but that did not happen with this meal. We were really impressed with the generous portion sizes and were able to have leftovers for tomorrow. They also gave us plenty of of garlic rolls with Alfredo sauce on the side and they were really good. The garlic bread that my wife ordered was a bit hard and over toasted. I also ordered the cheesecake which was good but a little dry. it was good, but it would have been out of this world with some strawberries and or some strawberry sauce. Overall our impression of the food we ordered was great and we would definitely order again with a few modifications to order to make it better. I definitely would recommend that you give this restaurant restaurant a try I believe you will be...

Sausage & bell pepper on pizza was good, the sauce was okay but not fresh in taste. The onion was sliced yesterday or maybe very early this morning making it very strong...close to offensive in odor; won't be saving for leftovers. The crust...no soft interior but not crunchy either...very odd bland and flavorless crust.

Romaine in cesar salad didn't have the ribs removed, lazy. The dressing is store bought, lazy...fresh cesar is so easy! The croutons are store bought, dumb for an italian restaurant to do in addition to lazy. Parmesan cheese was store bought. Freshest thing in the salad was a tiny slice of tomato.

Garlic bread was ordered. it's literally a store bought bratwurst bun (on second thought maybe those store bought crutons were a better choice after all) with garlic butter liquid soaked and slightly heated up while closed so hard (weird that it wasn't crisp) on outside and soggy inside. Super weird for an italian restaurant.

Fresh and homemade ingredients would greatly improve your bottom line La Bella and sure would make a difference in our food choices around here in S. Garland. Please visit Cane Rosso and get a clue of what is needed here in S. Garland. Too bad I have to drive to Deep Ellum for decent italian for less money.

Delivery...

If I could give this place 0 stars I would. I've come here several times and never had an issue, service is fine and food is good. However tonight, I decided to try something new. I did not like the plate. I told the server just to let her know. I didnt ask for anything else. She comes to me afterwards and asks if I want anything else. I tell her if it's not a problem I'll get another plate that I've tried before. Well, I go to find her to ask her if she can prepare it to go since my family already finished eating. She then tells me that her boss told her that if I want another plate then I have to pay for BOTH (the one I barely ate and the new one). How ridiculous is that? I tell her no problem. I'll just take my original plate since they are charging me anyways. I was never rude or demanded anything. I'm very upset and I wont be giving them my business anymore. Why offer if I want anything else in the first place? Where is their customer service? Nothing against our server. She was nice. Learn to treat your customers and listen to feedback. Like I said, never coming back and not recommending this place to...
