Bella Verona

"Can I give 50 stars instead of 5? This place is UNBELIEVABLE. I was startled at first for the small size of the sitting area, as I struggle with small places but it wasn't crowded and that made me feel more at ease. The décor is outstanding and you feel in every detail the love that put this place together. The homemade food is otherworldly delicious and I wasn't hungry but ate every last bite. I can't wait to go back. The service is so personal and authentic, their handwritten menu for daily specials is the cutest thing and I wish ALL restaurants in the world were as good as this is one."

"My family and I literally adore this little hole in the wall. It is so amazing and adorable inside. My waitress, Christine was so kind, friendly, and efficient. I recommend making a reservation, especially on a Friday or Saturday night. We will be back every single time we visit Salem!!!"

"An intimate setting in a charming trattoria on Essex in Salem. The food was really quite good, and fresh ingredients were put together for a great wedding anniversary meal."

"One of the best spots in Salem. This cozy trattoria has world class Italian, great daily specials, and an excellent wine and drink list. The service is great and friendly. They do not rush you, but check just the right amount. Outdoor dining available in the summer. A real gem."

"So nice, we went twice. The first time, we ordered off the menu. The names I can't say well. One was a pork tenderloin with onions in a white wine sauce. The other was tortellini with cheese cream sauce. They paired wonderfully together. The second time, we chose everything off the specials menu. A grilled portobello appetizer, chicken Risotto, and lobster ravioli with saffron cream sauce."
