The same group that brought Vapiano to Charlotte has rebranded. We have combined our scratch kitchen, fun cocktails and upscale environment to offer an improved dining experience.
The Bella Ciao is an upbeat, trendy, casual restaurant offering fresh high quality Italian food. All pasta noodles, sauces, pizza dough and desserts are made fresh daily.
We provide guests the ability to order and dine at their leisure while enjoying an upscale atmosphere.
Fast, Fresh & Fun!
Dining at your leisure service model. Multiple ways to order, from kiosks, table (pay and order at the table), from an associate at the bar or service desk.
order Pickup/DeliveryWe are so happy that it's open for business again!!
As always the food is outstanding, pasta is cooked to perfection. We went on Saturday around 5pm and it was pretty empty. Love the new way of ordering, either at the kiosk, at your own table with QR code or at the front with the server. The food came out pretty quick no longer than 10 min wait. We will defiantly come back, so glad you're open again!
Very well spaced out for covid, multiple ways to pay as well.
Decent beer selection, cocktails didn't really feature any bourbons but I guess that's my preference versus the venues set up.
The ravioli I thought was store bought but upon asking the waitress was able to fully explain how it's made in house etc...
I ate here when it was a Vapianos & I still love it just the same. I am a vegetarian & have very strict dietary restrictions & when the managers see my face they greet me. If I order ahead & they see my name on the ticket, they advise the chef how it should be prepared which I graciously appreciate. It's really hard to find places to comfortably eat without feeling like a burden when you don't always have a choice in what you can eat.
This is the same restaurant as Vapiano. The food and ordering method is still the same. The only difference is they've managed to make the interior nicer. I came here to pickup my usual Vapiano order, the beef Bolognese and it was just as I remembered it. I will be adding Bella Ciao to my rotation as it's the perfect spot for Italian food uptown. The price is amazing and the portions are huge, which is a big reason why I went here so much...
Stopped here for mid day drinks during the holiday week and had excellent food and service at the bar. Wine and beer selection was good. For food, we had: salads, soup and bruchetta, it was all excellent. We will be back!
