Customer Reviews

The Good was amazing. I had the Qabili Palow and brought home Banjan Borani for the wife. We both LOVED our meals. The service was great, my chai never went empty and they made sure all was well. The place is pretty well decorated and walks a good line between not too cluttered but not too minimalistic. I would absolutely come back next time I'm in the area.

We had a 'magical' experience this evening at Bellissimo (our waiter name was actually Magic! Such a lovely, sweet and gentle soul) We ordered Qabili Palou and Mantu. The saddest part was not having enough room to order more. Authentic baklava for dessert! Can't wait to come back for Italian night!

Cozy, small restaurant. Offers both Italian and Afghanistan cuisine. I chose to visit for the Italian which had amazing choices. I ordered from the Afghanistan menu. Amazing flavor. Fresh ingredients.

My friend and I went to Bellissimo for a late lunch on a Saturday. There was one other patron. We were seated immediately. There is a full Afghan & Italian menu! We came for Italian but plan on returning for the afghani food (it looked delicious) I ordered the four cheese ravioli and my friend got the spaghetti and meatballs. We both found the sauces to be a little spicier than we anticipated, but the flavor was great. We both had plenty of leftovers. Our meal was served with sliced Italian bread.

I was recommended this restaurant by a local, and it absolutely did not disappoint. The spaghetti and tri-color tortellini were both delicious and full of flavor. On my next trip, Service was welcoming and friendly. I'll definitely be coming back to try some of their Afghan dishes as well.
