Pizzeria Bella Italia - Schwentinental

At the end of a weekend we had no desire to cook at home. So we decided to decide the evening at the small Italian restaurant in Raisdorf. Ms. had doubts whether we would get a table, only the activities of the German football team this evening probably had most potential guests from the restaurant visit. We were kindly greeted by an operator when we entered, and we could choose a place in the restaurant where only one family sat together at several tables. We had hardly any room when the second service already supplied us with the menus. The two young ladies were apparently in the second or third generation in Germany, a hardly acceptable Italian accent seemed more wanted to create the appropriate atmosphere in the restaurant. Despite all the efforts of the two, however, it was clear that they had not enjoyed gastronomic training, but that they did with kindness and commitment. Food and drink The menu offers characterize the typical program of a small Italian restaurant in Germany, therefore adapted to German expectations and behaviors. So there is a selection of pizzas, pasta and salads, with meat and fish dishes it is a bit thin. Madame chose “Macheroni all’Arrabiata” (8,50 €) and I baked the “Canneloni di Carne, pasta filled with minced meat, with ricotta and cheese” (8,50 €). For drinking we ordered a bottle of mineral water (0.75l for €2.60, which was also brought after a very short time. The restaurant was as empty as footballers should have one of their big shows tonight. Accordingly, the kitchen rushed to prepare our food as soon as possible as the expected last guests. After about ten minutes, the two plates were served, the noodles were “old”, the Arrabiata sauce for macheroni and also the minced meat filling in the canneloni were very good and tasty. We were both well fed and very satisfied with the restaurant visit. Ambience Rustic furniture with open light wooden beams and partly white, partly eye-painted walls, furniture made of light wood, chairs with centrally padded back with striped fabric cover. The tables were covered with white fabric tablecloths and blankets in old pink, places covered with cutlery and napkins. On each table was a windlight of glass and salt and pepper mills. Cleanliness No dust in the corners, no crumbs on the floor, so well maintained. Plates, glasses and cutlery were also clean, we did not visit the toilets.

Very good and authentic Italian. The food was very good. Also the wines and of course the Limoncello. Good operation. Come back.

Very good food and really good prices. Very recommended.

Delicious Italian pizza ate... something for the great hunger... huge and the dough... leaks... price reasonable. Very nice operation and very beautiful outdoor area.

The food was very delicious and well prepared. The service was very friendly, attentive and professional. In general we enjoyed the atmosphere there.
