Great ideas often occur in the most comfortable of settings and Bellinis is no exception. With that in mind, in 2008 after discussing ideas over a bottle (or 2) of wine, the concept of Bellinis was formed. Come see why "Life is Sweet" at our place. Relax and enjoy your own glass of wine among friends and see where your discussions take you. At Bellinis OUR Passion is YOUR Food and YOUR Service.

Bellini's features 100% Prime Organic Beef, housemade pastas, veal, seafood and classic Tuscan Italian dishes. Bellini's maintains an extensive wine selection and weekly desert specials. Our bar opens weekdays at 4pm for drinks and dinner service begins at 5pm Monday to Saturday.

We have two private dining areas available for large parties. Our private dining room accommodates 20 to 25 patrons and features a 48" TV with audio visual capabilities. Our Intimate Dining room accommodates 10 to 15 patrons. Reservations are suggested.

I brought a homemade cake and they made a nice presentation, and brought plates and forks. It was a really nice meal! Thanks Bellini’s, we have been coming here since the beginning and will continue!

My wife had the Italian soup and I had the duck soup. I had a glass of Zinfandel. The meal was a 10 out of 10. He was also unbelievably priced for the value and quality of the lunch. Best lunch in Birmingham.

I had the seafood risotto and there was so much sauce it was Iike a soup and next to no risotto. So normally a 5 🌟 last night was a 3.5. Atmosphere was just off as we were sat alone in the back room and service was okay.. Will certainly be back though.

The ambiance is very nice and the service is first class. Why go into Jefferson County when you have this jewel in your backyard. Great restaurant. Love the grilled Caesar salad. Could eat that every day! The veggie burgers which are wood gilled are great!

Primarily because if I express my true feelings, others may flock to it, thus decreasing my opportunities to dine there. Secondly, even if you people choose to flock to it, our favoritest server, Tyler, may also become overwhelmed by sheer numbers, forcing me to be served by someone else. Y’all just don’t go when I wanna go…
