10 years since we first dined at Bellota and it's just as good as we remember. Selecting great plonk from Prince Wine Store next door for very reasonable corkage is a real treat. Food and service were excellent. No doubt the place will still be around in another 10 years - top draw! We had oysters, scallops, scampi and steak - outstanding. Look forward to next visit. Cheers

Charming service at this friendly restaurant. Excellent choice of Italian staples with very fresh ingredients and creative touches. The duck Ragu special flavoured with orange and cinnamon was to die for. The prosciutto and mozzarella were superb. There is a large selection of good pizzas to suit all tastes. We’ll be back.
