Great Italian Food! The four cheese pasta is always a winner, love the lasagna, and the seafood is amazing. I am yet to find a dish that was anything but fabulous! Even the salads and bread are awesome! The ambience is great and definitely sit outside on the patio if the weather is nice. LOVE THIS PLACE!

Before I retired, I had the pleasure of dining at IL Bel Lago many times - before and after the name change. Following a hiatus of several years, it was nice to return to this superb establishment. Service was great, food delicious and a great, comfortable atmosphere.

Had a lovely business lunch here today. Panzanella salad was excellent. Great, unrushed service and low noise level allowed easy conversation. Will be back!
