Restaurant Bella Italia in Berlin

Such a bad shop... I can't recommend it.

We ate there as tourists. We were pleasantly surprised. The food was excellent and served warm. The service was very friendly and attentive. We finished with a free grappa. We would come back again.

An absolute must if you're in Playa de Palma, right by the Balenaro bus stop. Good food, good service, and excellent value for money. An absolute must :-)

It's a small, quiet place in the big city of Berlin. The food was very good, and everyone enjoyed it.

The restaurant was chosen by a friend. The pizza was recommended to me, but I can't recommend it. The menu itself has a huge selection. I prefer less choice and better quality. All the pizzas were rather difficult to slice, which is the first question. Why isn't the pizza sliced ​​when I eat in a restaurant? We weren't even asked if we wanted it sliced. A neighbor had the steak, and while it was a lot, the meat wasn't that good. I'd say it wasn't a rump steak either. We were a large group, and there was no free schnapps or coffee, as is typical. The price is therefore unjustified, and I won't be coming back.

Hi. There were three of us eating, and we were surprised by how delicious it was. So, I can't rate it 4.0. For me, it would easily be a 4.6 or 4.7. We had a tuna pizza and two pasta dishes. Everything was freshly prepared and delicious. 😀. After dinner, we had a Sambuga (even the original one with three coffee beans).

Waiting 10 minutes just for the menu even though the restaurant is empty. Lol

We went here to eat after visiting the unterwelen, an environment that reminds us of a healthy Italian trattoria, we ate the pasta Bolognese, a decidedly generous portion

Expensive, very expensive, beers at €6 on average because we're still waiting for the detailed receipt despite asking for it.

They charged us whatever they wanted for seven beers, over 39 euros, without specifying the price, even though we asked twice. Plus, the terrace smelled like a sewer.

Very tasty Clean Very friendly staff

Everything tastes like frozen food, if you're in a group one person might finish before everyone else has their food, and it doesn't look good either.

The restaurant is truly authentic—you feel like you're in Italy. The server was super friendly and attentive. My rump steak was simply incredible—perfectly cooked and full of flavor. I definitely recommend it!

We came to this café and were greeted by a waiter who asked whether we were only going to drink or also eat. As it turned out, he asked that because their chef was late for work. We ordered brunch — you can see in the photo how poorly it looked (there were originally 6 pieces, only 4 are shown in the photo). It’s worth mentioning that it was just plain bread with a few slices of tomato. It looked extremely poor. When we received the food, we weren’t even given plates or cutlery, which is already unacceptable. We thought the experience couldn’t get any worse — but then, workers showed up behind us and suddenly started drilling the wall. It was unbelievably loud, and none of the customers were warned or happy about it. It was a total nightmare. To finally leave this place, we had to go and ask for the bill ourselves because no one came to our table. They simply didn’t care about their customers. This is not only the worst café in Berlin, but the worst place I’ve ever been to in my life. If negative ratings were possible, they would get the maximum negative score: -100/5.

Smells like toilet a little. The waiter forgets our orders. We call him Big G btw. I would give it 2 stars but i love going to the toilet very much.

Expensive ice cream and soft drinks of medium quality

We ordered a pepperoni pizza with extra pepperoni, had it delivered, and then received a pizza that was barely 24 cm in size, which was also burnt. The information stated the pizza was 28 cm, a total rip-off.

This restaurant at Brunnenstrasse 104 is highly recommended. The lamb chops (with croquettes) are incredibly good (with homemade herb butter that is unparalleled anywhere in the world!). UPDATE from July 2019: Unfortunately, lamb chops are no longer available, but all the other items on the menu that we enjoyed were brilliant, delicious, perfectly prepared, and served with excellent service. An absolute recommendation. The antipasti, the fish soup, the calamari, and the homemade herb butter are especially world-class. UPDATE from June 28, 2025: Believe it or not: When choosing whether to take a short break in Hamburg, Berlin, or Munich next week, BELLA ITALIA on Brunnenstrasse tipped the scales in favor of BERLIN. This fabulous restaurant alone is why I'll be traveling to Gesundbrunnen next week, and I'm already looking forward to the food and the unbeatably perfect service there.

Food was good and the staff friendly.

On top of the €5.50 iced coffee, I had to pay an additional €2 for the scoop of ice cream in my iced coffee. Absolutely outrageous. The selection of ice cream flavors is very limited, and the quality doesn't make a good impression.

We have never experienced such bad service. We reserved a table for 7 people over the phone. We were greeted warmly and took our drink order. The drinks arrived and our food order was taken. After about 20 minutes we were asked if we had placed an order, and yes, we had. A moment later, the same question was asked. A little later, a man told us the food was already on the pan. After waiting for 40 minutes, a waiter came and told us that the waiter who had taken our food had forgotten to pass it on to the kitchen. He was very sorry and asked if he should order the food now. We said no, as we had to go to an event. The waiter offered us two starters for 7 people? The best part was that as a thank you, we even had to pay for the drinks on empty stomachs. That's the last time anything like that happened to me - no food. We will never be seen in this restaurant again.

Small but fine Italian restaurant with unbeatable value for money for Berlin!

Cozy restaurant, had a lovely evening. The server was very friendly and funny. I highly recommend it.

The restaurant has a wide selection of Italian food: fish, meat, pizza, pasta etc and hot and cold alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks. You can sit both inside and outside. If the weather is good, the outdoor area is recommended, only the traffic noise is a bit annoying. Payment is possible with both card and cash. The food (Pizza Tonno and Hawaii) were delicious, the waiters were friendly and accommodating.

What (cheap) prices, and then such good food! Time has stood still a bit, but anyone who has been in the same place for over 25 years has earned it not through ambience, but through good food. I'd love to come back! Grazie mille!!

Delicious food, great service. I'm thrilled. I had lunch here during my transfer at Gesundbrunnen train station. The food was very tasty and after I asked if it was possible to eat within 30 minutes so that I could catch my connecting train, I had my food in front of me incredibly quickly.

The best food here in Berlin, just the way I like it, and the portions are also quite large for a reasonable price. The service is very nice, friendly and attentive, and it is also very clean and cozy. The boss there is also super nice. You feel comfortable here!!!

Delicious food, Courteous staff, Normal prices.

Hello, extremely long-established restaurant in a very central location at the Gesundbrunnen, unfortunately the ambience to sit outside is borderline, inside it is cozy. Expected, solid range of food at an affordable price, very exemplary, thank you. All the best to those running it

Fantastic price/performance ratio. Best service ever. I really, really enjoy being with you and have never regretted it. Thank you for your comprehensive warmth.

For the first visit there there is nothing to complain about... it was great... keep it up.

Yes, I can recommend! Good, tasty food and the friendly crew, comfortable seating. And you won’t get poor here either😊 Thank you very much!

Very good restaurant, delicious food and cool drinks, so far a place has always been available at short notice. I would be happy to come back.

This restaurant is absolutely bad. Really horrible. The service is unfriendly and very loud. We are filled with bad music. The food tastes worse than frozen food and the portions are tiny. Guests from our group were also overlooked and it took half an hour for the food to be delivered while the others had long since finished. No gluten-free food is offered and the atmosphere is horrible. In addition, hair is increasingly found in food I definitely do not recommend this restaurant and even advise against dining there.

Absolutely bad. The waiter had forgotten me with the drinks. When he brought the drinks for the others, I pointed out to him that he had accidentally forgotten me and that I would like to have another drink. He replied in an annoyed voice: "Yes, where were you?" (I was sitting at the table from the beginning). At some point the pizzas arrived, except for mine and from a friend Pizzas. There was a hair on mine. The pizzas were also very small. I was still hungry after visiting the restaurant. The ice cream tasted bland and had the texture of sand. Several people in the group were called pork cheeks by the waiter

I was there with my parents and siblings (250 people). The cook had a mouse under his hat that controlled him. That was sweet. But I think the waiter wasn't a real Italian, but Vladimir Putin. When I asked about this, he told me not to ask so many stupid questions and that Italy has always been part of Russia. Afterwards he insulted the mother of all 250 guests one after the other, which, since most of us were siblings, was not, in my opinion, a very wise investment of time. Nevertheless, most of them had a lot of fun, except for mom. The food tasted very good, the dessert I recommend is the Pizza Semifredo. We would be happy to come back at any time.

Tasty pizza and great liquors :):)

Delivery disaster. Burnt bruschetta. Bolognese expired. Taste bland. Salad dressing watery. Never again.

Very tasty noodles. Top service.

Upon entering there is a very cozy warm atmosphere. We had our food within 10 minutes of ordering and it was very tasty. The staff is extremely friendly and welcomes you to the restaurant. The restaurant deserves a better place because it is really great!! Highly recommended if you are staying in this area

Were there today at the family reunion, a table was ordered. We were then divided into 3 tables. Everything smells like a drain in there. The bruchetta was very good, coffee was also good, pizza wasn't that tasty, fries weren't ready and the first waiter was rather annoyed that he had to work now. The second very nice.

We were a group (approx. 12-15 people) with children. The waiter was totally overwhelmed. We didn't receive some of our drinks or any food at all, even though we asked several times. The waiter totally lost track and served us food that no one ordered! He also took his mood out on us. That's not how you treat customers. Such behavior is inexplicable to me and there was no apology. We left the restaurant hungry without food after 1.5 hours.

Went to the Italian restaurant because I was nearby and nothing else sensible was open. The waiter was really nice and took the order quickly, which is no surprise when there are only 3 tables occupied in the restaurant on a Sunday evening. Prices are also great and the food is ok, but unfortunately the whole restaurant smelled like a sewer. It wasn't possible to spend the evening there... We ate quickly and left

The Italian at Gesundbrunnen train station. Good and inexpensive. Even prettier and tidier after the renovation. Very nice.

Very nice and cozy atmosphere, real delicious Italian food at a reasonable price and a very friendly waiter. Highly recommended and certainly a restaurant I will visit again.

More tasty then in Italy✨ all the dishes that we tried are tasty and portions are big❤️‍🔥

A beautifully presented restaurant, the prices are very attractive and I immediately found 3 favorite dishes. It turned out to be the beef fillet with broccoli and herb butter. Very, very tasty - a taste explosion. I will definitely find my way back here and came from Brandenburg an der Havel. Previously we were at the Berliner Unterwelten e. V. - spontaneous, but a very successful evening! The olives and bread that were previously served were also very tasty, as was the side salad.

No nonsense, decent food for a very reasonable price and very friendly service.

Excellent service, food and wine. Highly recommend.

Very nice service, we liked the food

We actually just wanted to drink something, but the nice waiter gave us a few olives and bread as well as cutlery. He encouraged us to order something to eat. The waiter was very nice and attentive. The scampi pizza was very tasty and had plenty of toppings. I will definitely eat there again. The only thing that could perhaps be criticized is the old-fashioned, outdated furnishings. Is very cozy and rustic.

Must try. Good food with great service and ambiance. Portion size is pretty big !! I tried butter rice with fried shrimps on the side, and it was great. It came with a salad too. The servers were very welcoming.

Lovely place, excellent appetizers, and incredibly welcoming staff.

Very good food!!! And cheap prices and excellent service!!

Very nice gentleman at the service, great food 👍👍👍👍👍

Very nice staff and delicious food. Thank you.

Had a delicious and cheap meal here. Very nice service.

We were here with 19 hikers, it was great. One operation and everything worked. Another negative point would be that a manhole in front of the restaurant had to be reported urgently, it was very unpleasant. Otherwise everything is good.

Home styled Italian pasta. Very welcoming and cozy.

Amazing food. Risotto was brilliant and so was the pizza. I really recommend the salmon with pasta it was so good!

After the new opening everything was great and delicious food

Extremely delicious, spicy tomato soup Pizza well topped and tasty Very friendly service, a little more attention would have been good, otherwise very good

All in all ok. Ambience is acceptable according to the location. It took a little longer to pay, and after another request to pay by card, I was told to come to the restaurant. Hmmm they could have told us that too. Otherwise everything was fine.

Obviously trying to scam me ! I ordered tap water, and I got an already open bottle (obviously this was tap water in ) and at the end they tried to charge me the bottle

I was very hungry and just went to the nearest store. I really didn't have high expectations today but the food here is really extremely good. So my expectations were exceeded THOUSAND TIMES. The price is absolutely right for the quantity and quality. Very good!

Service is quite okay. Waiters seem to be trying hard, but orders take forever or only come when asked again. The furnishings are very outdated and every time the toilet door is opened, an unpleasant smell wafts through the entire restaurant. Very unsavory. Apparently there are also mice in the restaurant. During our visit we observed 2 mice staying under the tables and disappearing into small holes in the walls.

I was eating there with my class (90 people) and more than half of them vomited after 20 minutes, the rest were very sick, which meant that we couldn't do any more activities, which was a shame.

The pizza tasted like it was a bad frozen pizza.

Essen lasted longer than World War II Not only was the food smaller than 32 cm as ordered, half of it was forgotten in the kitchen, then the pizza was harder than a stone and then raw and as soft as dough In addition, there is always the smell of rotten rats

Very friendly service and really good food. The bruschetta in particular was a highlight for me. Only the wall next to me was a little dirty from food splatters and could use some deep cleaning or a coat of paint. The rest of the restaurant is harmoniously furnished and clean. The outdoor seating area is on a large street, but still invites you to linger.

My friend needed to use the restroom, so he walked in and asked if he could use the restroom. No problem! It was said. When he had finished and walked outside, he was approached and pointed to a note on the door that apparently stated that the toilet cost 2 euros for non-guests. It's not nice not to report this in advance, but the ridiculously high price in particular made us decide to post this review. Never before have I paid so ridiculously much for a visit to the toilet.

I can't believe Little Italy has a higher rating than this.

Very tasty food and nice service :). The wait time is worth it.

We had a great evening there. The waiters were super friendly and the food and beer tasted really delicious

Rarely have such bad food been served. You had to wait over an hour for the food - it was a real waste of money. Never again

He brought the wrong food instead of bringing the right food. He chose a bad reaction and his behavior was not good at all.

Food was delicious. Nothing major to complain about but nothing really special either! Difficult even if we went on holiday in Italy the day later, everything tasted good there 😅

He doesn't treat customers well at all. I am not satisfied at all and do not recommend you to choose this restaurant.

Very good prices for surprisingly good food.

Nice restaurant, with nice service and fairly low prices. The food was good. The ambience inside is fine, the terrace outside is simple and quite loud on the main street. Overall, quite down to earth and inexpensive.

Delicious pizza, I think there are also smaller pizzas, and the prices are unbeatable, nice service, We sat outside, unfortunately a bit noisy, but inside it looked very comfortable. We will be back

Very nice here, delicious food and nice staff. Very nice and quick. 🥰

Best Aglio Olio pasta in Berlin!

Fin mad, ikke noget særligt. Vi delte en pizza og en omgang bruschetta. Der var hhv. chili- og hvidløgsolie med til pizzaen, hvilket var lækkert.

Food was okay, but only cash payment in 2024 and there was a sewage smell on the terrace. Also the waiter seemed to be very busy and was kind of moody.

Good pizzeria. Prices moderate. Large selection.

I almost never give a bad review to any restaurant, but I had a really bad experience here and I was shocked by the impolite receptionist/waiter here🤮 I went to this restaurant today and wanted to use the toilet before ordering, but he thought I was just wanted to use the toilet and said "one euro please" with a sullen look on his face. He said ”ok” only after I emphasized that “I will eat here”. After I came out of the toilet, I sat outside and had already thought about what to order, but after waiting for a while, no waiter came. At the same time, I realized that I didn’t have enough time to eat because I had booked the “underworld tour” next door at 13:00. So I walked up to the front desk and said to him "Sorry, I don't have enough time to eat, I can pay you one euro for the toilet now". He said only cash, but I only have card, so he said “fine” in a very bad manner. Before I left I heard him say something very rude… I don't know where he is from, but he is definitely not German. And my above review does not involve the dishes, only the weird person.

I was surprised that you can get delitious pizza for 5.5 eur near train station (which means there should be lot of people). Cost of living is higher in Berlin than in Lithuania I assumed, but you can hardly find this price even in Lithuania.

A very atmospheric place! Waiter very friendly, food good. I had a train transfer in Berlin and so went out to eat something good in my free time. I ate very well. The staff didn't have a problem with me going in with my cat <3

Solid. I like to come here to get a pizza. Service is very friendly.

We had a great pizza and a lovely carafe of house red wine. A very enjoyable lunch!

Food is very tasty and there is always plenty of fresh salad and the waiter is always friendly and always has a smile on his face. Highly recommended

The staff is very friendly and accommodating. The food is very tasty and the price is very good

Have been there several times and have always been served very friendly and courteous by the waitress. For us, these are always feel-good moments in the actual chaos of Berlin.

Waiters friendly, polite and always with a smile on their face.👌 would be happy to come back.

Went here prior to the Berlin Unterwelten tour. But pfff. These were the most unfriendly people I have seen in a long time. Both the woman behind the bar and the man serving were VERY grumpy and snapped at us. 'SIT DOWN!!' I was shouted after I ordered at the bar because it took a long time for them to arrive at the table. Ditto at checkout. Change was also thrown on the table and no thank you or 'have a nice day' was received. Pizza half cooked, the 2 beers cold. Good thing, too.

The ambiance of restaurant is really good. The staff is very good and active. Food is very tasty and prices are very reasonable. I highly recommend this restaurant.

Very bad service and unfriendly

Waiter didn't come for over an hour even though there was hardly anything going on! It's a shame, it used to be a good shop with really nice service, but today it's an absolute flop

We have been to this restaurant 3 times so far. The Value for money is absolutely top! Plus friendly and attentive service. The food is not exceptional but very tasty. The whole thing in the middle of Berlin! TOP! We'd love to come back! Mille Grazie!
