Casa Bella

Delicious Italian specialties with a full page of daily specials. Great service. Full bar. There is a large flight of stairs out front and again to the second floor however there is a handicapped accessible rear door entrance near the handicapped accessible parking on the street behind the restaurant. Best to mention any ADA needs while making your recommended reservation.

Delicious food! We celebrated my mom’s birthday here and it was a fun time. I would highly recommend the Pappardelle Vodka!

Food and service was Fantastic! Came in town for business and had dinner alone. Enjoyed every bite and my servers recommendations was right on point from the Wine to the dessert.

Visited here for a baptismal dinner. Food and service was delicious and for a Northwestern NJ location, the Italian food was excellent. It is rarity to find near authentic Italian dishes and Casa Bell surely hit it on the nail!

Dined outside on lovely terrace overlooking water had drink & app and excellent chicken parm dinner with attentive service. Cheesecake desert with cherries 🍒 was nice finish. Thumbs up.

Wonderful time here. My boyfriend and I came for dinner and we had a great waiter, Bill. In fact, all of the staff is attentive and the food is delicious. I like that they have the half vs full option. Also, lots of specials ! My boyfriend had the wild boar gnocchi and I had the pappardelle with vodka sauce. We shared baked clams. Sooo good ! The upstairs also has a view of the lake. Will definitely return!

Amazing food, some of the best Italian food I've had, from the calamari to the cannolis. The staff also did a wonderful job catering a celebration of life we were attending, very attentive. If I'm ever in Denville I'll be sure to visit again.

The best Italian restaurant l have ever been!!! Everything was perfect, starting with the food, service and ambiance! Will definitely go again and again and again!!!

Excellent food, fabulous service..great ambiance!..We Had a great time meeting up with long time friends while visiting our hometowns! Thank you Casa Bella!

We have been here on special occasions for the past 21 years and I'm NEVER disappointed in the service or food

Stellar dinner spot. Absolutely authentic. I had the pork chop and it was hands down one of the best!

From the dirty martini to the biscotti excellent! Everyone is so pleasant and the food was delicious.

Fantastic as always. The wait staff is quick, knowledgeable, and courteous. (Thank you Ever!) The food was delicious and plentiful at a reasonable price. Get out and go there!

Went to a rehearsal dinner at Casa Bella. The service and food were outstanding... Can't find decent Italian food in Florida so dinner at Casa Bella was a treat!

Excellent service, food is delicious. Very nicely decorated. The dining area did get a bit loud. Very nice experience overall. Will definitely go back.

One of the most excellent establishments in the area. Food and service are always impeccable. Can get a little loud and hard to hear your own tablets conversation at times.

Had my son’s rehearsal dinner tonight and I cannot say enough about the entire experience! As an Italian who knows and enjoys the food it was exceptional! The service was spectacular as they were above and beyond attentive and so personable. The entire night was a success beyond belief! Thank you Casabella you exceeded my expectations.

We just enjoyed a birthday dinner for 80-year-old mother-in-law at Casa Bella over the weekend. We couldn’t have been happier with the food, which was uniformly excellent from the fried calamari to the veal saltimbocca to the short rib ravioli. The service, too, was classic, attentive, white – tablecloth style! Thank you for making our family dinner for Nonna very special!

Phenomenal food, excellent service and beautiful atmosphere! Highly recommend!

I am from Central New York and traveled to the area for a sports event. We were looking for some pasta and Casa Bella came up. We decided to give it a try and were nothing short of floored at the quality of the food and the service! Food came to the table in short time, piping hot, and full of flavor. The portions were heavy, so definitely looking forward to a delicious lunch tomorrow! Highly recommend checking Casa Bella out. 5 stars all day ✨️

We had a fantastic New Year’s Eve dinner! From start to finish, everything was perfect. The dishes were absolutely delicious, showcasing authentic Italian flavors with generous portions—we even enjoyed leftovers the next day. The wine selection was extensive, and the cocktails were a hit; we particularly loved the Hendrick’s Negroni. The staff went above and beyond. Despite the busy evening, our server was attentive, friendly, and efficient, making the overall service excellent. The ambiance was lively yet cozy, with festive touches that perfectly captured the holiday spirit. Whether you’re celebrating a special occasion or just looking for a memorable dinner, this is a fantastic spot. Highly recommend, especially if you love big portions, impeccable food, and outstanding service!

A great place for a great meal. From service to food it’s high quality. Our server Steve took the time to explain each special dish. We ended our night at the bar and service again quick and efficient, we will definitely be returning.

Love this place, looks and feels very humble and beautiful clean, love the entrance with its beautiful decorated fountains, makes it feel calm and welcoming. The food, the epitome. I think this place by far in my OPINION has the best Italian food I have ever tasted in my life, and I been to Italy, oh yeah by the way, the food here is better then Florence and Rome combined! Disappointed in supposedly "real" italian food in "Italy." This place is the real italy to me. The staff is very professional, attentive, and very friendly. To all the negative comments.. WHAT?!?!? Must be from another planet. Unfortunately food is like movies, its all relative. My wife and I loved this place!!! Recommend this place 100%

Went with a large group, service was exceptional. The grilled seafood was fabulous.

Let me start off by saying I had one of the most entertaining and memorable nights at this restaurant. Visiting from Texas and sat at the bar. The local patrons provided a variety of topics and kept me thoroughly entertained. The wine selection is fantastic, bar service second to none, and the food is delicious! The restaurant is elegant and clean. I will definitely be back when next in North Jersey.

Had a date night here last night and we loved the entire experience. Our server was both knowledgeable and very friendly. From the appetizer all the way to the last bite of dessert the entire meal was outstanding. The inside is very relaxing and warm, a perfect dinner location for any time and any day. I would recommend this spot to anyone be they local or just passing through.

The food and atmosphere and service is hands down elegant and incredible !! We had a VERY good experience both times we went !! Highly recommend going there.

The homemade cavatelli is delicious. The chicken parm was so tender, it cut with a fork. It was just such an amazing experience, we'll be back soon! Highly recommend!!

Lovely atmosphere and delicious food Delicious food. For the most part very friendly staff. We did have one waiter, who basically told someone at our table they couldn’t order what they wanted to eat. They were going to eat what he wanted them to eat. She was not happy with that. And they also messed up her drink, which didn’t help the situation. I think he was thought he was trying to be helpful, but he was coming across very chauvinistic.

This was the first time we visited and were not happy about the service. Multiple orders were totally forgotten to be brought to the table. Later, we reminded, after which the server brought it, again missing out on another order. This may not be a server issue, I think it is the cooks' problem for not reading the order correctly and sending it. Anyhow we spent more than 90 minutes for our dinner. It has a good ambiance. Being vegetarian, options were less, but our non vegetarian friends ordered a lot and mentioned that the food was good. Otherwise, I enjoyed it overall. It is an upscale place, not for regular diners.

Went out with a group of friends tonight to Casa Bella for the first time. What a great spot! I have driven past it countless times but never had the chance to eat here. All the food was fantastic, the bread along with a plate of tomato bruschetta right from the start was a nice touch. I had the veal saltimbocca which was perfectly done. Our server, Harriet, was really pleasant and attentive throughout the meal. We will definitely be coming back for another meal!

Very nice dinner place with a lake view of you sit on the terrace. We went on a sunny day just when sun was set. It was little cloudy and the experience was amazing. I know it wouldn’t happen everyday but when ever it’s cloudy go to this place for a dinner and you will not be disappointed.

Driving up and walking in, we were intrigued by the old school Italian restaurant ambiance. The menu is expansive plus they had 6 to 8 specials. The meal started with a complimentary bruscetta and warm bread. We had a caprese salad, linguini with clams and tortellini Bolognese finishing with a Canolli. Everything was prepared perfectly and was delicious. We will return to try more options.

My favorite Italian place around. Since moving north finding a great Italian place has been very challenging. So far this is the best place within a 30 mile radius. Its always fresh, great wait staff and very consistent.

Tonight we Sat at the bar with a party of 6. We come often. We sat at the back far end. There were 3 bartender's. They seemed to all gravitate to the other end of the bar towards the restaurant end. We had to call out to them if we needed something.personally we spent a lot of money especially on wine and of course food. We frequent the restaurant and tonight it was disappointing. Suggestion would be with 3 bartenders spread them out. So your clients feel taken care of. It was always that way before. Recently the bartenders have changed. All I am saying is I may not rush back as this part of the restaurant has failed in the last 4 months

Absolutely delicious food and great service. If you have the choice to sit downstairs choose that. Siting at a table upstairs... the sound of those stairs and how much they are utilized could irks you.

Very noisy! Reservations were made the evening before, but we were told there were no reservations! Had a cocktail by the bar awhile waiting for a table. Approached hostess again and she did find our reservations after looking again. The service by the bar was exceptional! Seated at our table in a large, unimpressive room. Waited on shortly, ordered a bottle of wine, took 30 minutes at arrive (only after I went to hostess and complained). We were a party of 4 but the other tables were 8 or more. Waited again to order, waited again to order dessert, waited again for the bill. Our waiter was focused solely on tables with more people, more tips! On a positive note, the food was excellent, proportions were generous, hot, seasoned well and delicious! Don’t know if we will return there again, fiasco!!!!

For a first time visitor, I was underwhelmed. The female bartender didn’t really care about serving me and even listening to my order. She was more interested in the returning patrons. But she made sure to be friendly at the end when the bill came out. I was there tonight, Tuesday night. Not impressed with the service at all. Lentil soup was excellent. Too bad the service was mediocre at best. Maybe she should learn how to treat new patrons although I won’t be going back.

Restaurant looked beautiful- and I felt a little under dressed (in my shorts). But it had been a long travel day and I was looking forward to some NJ good Italian pasta! Sadly- within seconds of starting to eat, I found hair in the food. I guess accidents happen... but I lost my appetite.

Made a reservation a month ago and they had no idea and no table ready when our party of 6 showed up. They made no apologies and offered to "try to stuff us in a 5 table after that group left". Went somewhere else. Was planning on using them for an work function over the holidays but will take our business elsewhere.
