    Have been to Bella Luce several times before because the food is always good, and they did not disappoint this time, either. The soups were obviously home made and good. The main courses were also good. The food server was attentive and personable. With the bar situated in the center, the noise level can be higher than we would like. This time, however; the noise was coming from a large table - not much they can do about that. My only disappointment is the ambiance. The section we were in was brightly lit and it was chilly, as evidenced by the space heater they had running. Hopefully, this is a temporary issue. We will return.
