La Bella Pizza Express Brooklyn Reviews
This place is only 1 in a few left in Bensonhurst that makes quality pizza and sides. My go to place when I am on 86th Street. They have a large choice of different types of pizza, along with some good sandwiches. The guys behind the counter are always friendly. 5 Stars.
I always enjoy their pizza. The customer service is also excellent. It's definitely one of the best spots in town.
This is the place that I always love to order from, their pizza always are fresh and taste amazing, their fried calamari are the best, they are so crunchy and it’s better with the lemon and marinara sauce they give you, it’s absolutely amazing. Also the buffalo wings are also good, they aren’t dry and they taste good without the sauce they give you.
This is my favorite pizza place ever. The food is always amazing, fresh and tasty. The pricing you cannot beat. Easy, amazing take-out! ❤
Delicious pizza with great specials (8 slices for $10 which I got & I believe 12 slices for $16). I saw other customers with delicious-looking pasta dishes which I can't wait to try. It's a small spaced restaurant but it has at least 6 tables with 2 & 4 chairs. Also, if you are seated at your table while waiting for your order - one of the chefs will bring your food to your table & no tip required. Also, I re-heated my pizza covered in my oven & it came out perfect in about 5 mins. (or as soon as the pizza gets hot). For sure, one of the best pizzerias in Brooklyn, NY. I definitely will be going back.
I’ve been there multiple of times .. :) Atmosphere fast and busy but still a vibe ! Exactly what it is to have a quick bite in the heart of NYC and still see the workers have a laugh . Service in person and delivery is always great nothing but positive vibes . It’s been a while since I’ve tasted pizza like this maybe since I was in highschool 8 years ago ! Chicken broccoli pan pizza was legit delicious no complaints .
One of the oldest halal pizza places with ample options for toppings. They’ve had Philly cheesesteak pizza, Buffalo chicken pizza, Caesar salad pizza, chicken and peppers and more. If you’re looking for halal pizza, there hands down one of the best places. They’re my go-to place. The staff is very nice, always treating customers well and always happy to answer questions. Definitely check this thing out. Did I mention they’re super affordable for a halal joint? You won’t be disappointed.
Almost, but not quite there yet! These guys are efficient, run a clean shop, attentive and friendly. However, the shrimp parmigiana while fresh was just missing something. The sauce was a little watery and cheese rubbery. I know the meal is pricey for business owners and clients, but any meal over $12 requires premium ingredients, so that I won't care about price. I'm going back for the chicken parmigiana, if it's not a hit, I'm going around the corner.
I stop by for a quick bite around 1:30 pm, they were busy. The pizza guy was really nice and attentive, they have a vast menu from heroes and italian dishes, but I ordered 2 regular slices and 1 sicilian fresh mozzarela and a snapple and I paid $10.25 but sadly it was tasteless and salty, the pizza man and counter person wore their face masks at all times, but the guy who seemed to be the owner, had his mask below his chin and was speaking near the pizza to be sold, now in this hard times with covid19 we all should follow the safety protocol but specially owners or managers. Also bathroom was dirty and unsanitary, this doesn't help specially if food is not good. I won't stop by anymore, it was not a good experience.
Sauce was basically nonexistent. You can see it in the slice. There’s barely any red layer between the dough and the cheese. That kills the balance immediately. Pizza is about ratios. Dough, sauce, cheese. This was 70 percent crust, 25 percent cheese, 5 percent sauce if we’re being generous. If you’re going to do a thicker crust, you need extra sauce to carry it. Otherwise it’s just dry carbs and dairy. This place really has gone downhill. A regular cheese slice tells you all you need to know about a pizzeria and it’s quality.
I don’t know what this pizzeria owners problem is… I walked in a few years back and I’ll never forget the response I got just for canceling a vegetable slice literally 2 seconds after I ordered it. The chaos that ensued right after this happened as though we were all just really strung out over a guy that has too much to say over nothing.
I ordered pizza for myself and my father. First of all, I had to wait over an hour because every Uber Eats driver who picked up the order said it had been stolen. After an hour of waiting, the third driver finally managed to get the order, but the pizza he delivered was inedible — it was like it had just been drenched in hot sauce. I enjoy spicy pizza, but this wasn’t pizza, it was just spicy garbage. My father ended up with a stomach inflammation, and now we intend to sue this so-called "restaurant." People, be careful and don’t order anything from this place.
