- VVeroniceCentral Kentucky •7 reviews5.0Dined 3 days agoOur waitress was very personable and accommodating. The fried chicken had a crispy coating and tender. The collard greens had good flavor, but very spicy. The penne with cheese sauce needed more seasoning. Will definitely return to try a different entree.More info33 StavesPrice: Moderate• Contemporary American• Lexington•4.3

- GGaylevipCentral Kentucky •37 reviews5.0Dined on Nov 19, 2024We had a wonderful lunch at Bella Cafe. The wait staff were very patient and didn't rush our group who had a delightful visit. The chicken tenders were enough for two meals and quiet tasty. The Autumn Burrata seemed unbalanced with a good size cheese, but just a tablespoon of fig jam, 2 thin slices of prosciutto and 3 small pieces of bread. The waiter was quick to bring additional bread when asked. The Autumn Butternut Squash soup was delicious. The atmosphere is comfortable and inviting. The service was 100% improved from the last time we dined here. It is an excellent restaurant with quality food.More infoBella Cafe & Grille (Fountains at Palomar)Price: Moderate• American• Lexington•4.8
