Bellia's Pizza of Harrisburg — Restaurant in Susquehanna Township

Cosi delizioso. Best way to describe this place. Sitting right next to subway. This everyday looking pizza shop will open your eyes and mouth to the wonders of Italian cooking. While I admit, I didnt do a normal everything on the menu order. I was amazed and the choices. Or you had your normal pineapple pizza ( which is still a crime) but the cook takes your hand and takes you on a trip of American Italian hospitality. Shrimp alfredo pizza. Was amazing, with just the right size shrimp to enjoy hiding in noodles and sauce on the pizza, The big mac pizza ( copy right in question) was super tasty with American charm. The bacon ranch chicken is a landslide of flavor. Now the pizzas were amazing. Can NOT stress that enough. But if that dont win ya over. Let me tell you of cost. Because let's be honest. Not all good food needs to cost the price of your first born. This places prices look like the are stuck in the mid 1980s. Yes folks, amazing food cheap. Still not sold? Just go in. And you are hit with a warm hospitality that makes ya feel like family... not yours.. but a Italian family, where you need to eat more..eh. And trust me, you...

Baked ziti wasn't- well baked, and legit tasted like 2nd grade cafeteria food. Zero flavor and paid 4$ extra for (4) frozen pre-cooked meatballs. Cute. Onto the gluten free pizza as my wife is gluten free. It had potential but- the crust was undercooked and tasted like a combination of chalk meets sawdust. Most gluten free crusts I have had are actually decent but this one needed some help- the great thing though is they did cook in separate pans with a pre-packaged knife to avoid cross-contamination- HUGE props for that!!!! I get it, food costs are at an all time high, and it wasn't the waitresses fault- but if were spending 70$, we shoud expect something at least palatable! When I asked about the ziti she just casually said "yea, I know" and didn't offer to exchange the meal for something else we could at least semi-enjoy she just walked off.

They take cross contamination seriously, and I am very happy to see that but maybe also try to include food that people would actually enjoy- or lower the prices for the pre-cooked unseasoned misrepresented food...

I have pretty high standards and also consider myself spoiled, coming from New York when getting any type of food here in P.A., especially pizza.

They do have an extensive menu with a lot of different options to choose from. I got a small pie which was more like a personal pan pizza which I was not expecting. The pizza was okay. Best thing for me I liked was the cheese. For me personally, it was too thin and seems to be a common occurrence at pizza shops in P.A. for some reason. The crust was not pinched before putting it in the oven. Which is what makes a nice thick crust. I also found it pretty salty as I drank about a gallon of water 30 minutes after my meal which is another common occurrence when eating out in P.A. Fortunately, it is not their fault as the water here plays a big part in the type of food and how it's cooked.

They were however, extremely nice and provided great customer service. Would I be back? I'm not sure. It's just not my cup of tea when it comes to pizza. The search continues to find more similar pizza as you would...
