Review Bellas - Sandton

Excellent restaurant in a wonderful business center and area. 5 Stars!

Lovely place to go for breakfast and lunch especially if you're having meetings too. I went for breakfast and it was simply delicious. No complaints whatsoever. Many people go here for business meeting but trust me, you could go here for a chilled afternoon lunch or even brunch it's more quiet during brunch time anyway. Catch up with the girls, your mom or simply yourself. Its quiet homey.

What a little hidden gem! You might never know they exist unless you drive into the boomed-off office park. The service was good and the manager was very attentive. The food was absolutely delicious! I had the stuffed baked potato with vegetables and feta and it was amazing! My friends each had a salad and the portions were generous. Will definitely go back to try other dishes on their menu.

So peaceful ✌ lovely service! Good food. I will definitely go back. Parking is breeze.

Was just here for a fortieth bday ladies high tea. Everything from the charming venue, delicious savoury canapés, candy floss champagne and 2003 Buiten Blanc Wine to the attentive service and gorgeously sinful sweet treats on multi-tier cake stands was truly 5-star! Highly recommended.

I absolutely love it. Very nice and healthy food. It's located next to the best aesthetics clinic Derma Clinical. Try it out

Fantastic place! Good food, good view, helpful staff. This place is suitable for business meetings as well.

It's a lovely restaurant. Loved the breakfast good and not too complicated. Loved the freshly squeezed juice.

Delicious food, great selection. Service was attentive and friendly. Fantastic place for lunch!

This has become one of my favourite places for business meetings. Well done to owner and staff

Nice place for breakfast. I have had a number of business breakfasts at Bellas. Good food, good service, reasobale prices... a good way to start the day.

Bella is such a great little hidden restaurant in Sandton. The atmosphere is chilled and the food is incredible. Well worth a visit.

Awesome calamari. Tasted like it was caught that day. Steaks need to be halal though.. Looked delish

Fabulous meeting place and Amos makes the experience super personal and memorable. Great food and beautiful environment.

This place has been around for a while, it's always been a great place to go for a breakfast or lunch, super staff

Not the right spot for a business lunch in Summer: No air con, limited beer selection, tardy service and bland food. Better options available in close proximity.

We go to Bella whenever we get the chance. Never been disappointed. Always great food and great service. Breakfasts are our favourite there.

Overall, a very sub standard experience. The service was incredibly slow with everything from the drinks to dessert order taking an eternity to prepare even though we were there after the lunch time rush. We were a table of 8 so had the opportunity to discuss and taste a few options. Unfortunately, the 200g fillet looked more like a minute steak which was fully cooked, the chicken penne pasta was limited on flavor and the salmon was completely overcooked. The highlight of the meal were the desserts as the cakes were fresh and tasted really good.

I really love the setting of this hidden gem & it's overall chilled cafe vibe. However, I find the menu very limited. I struggled to decide what to eat because nothing was catching my eye, so I settled on their fillet with mushroom sauce & polenta. The fillet was well cooked, but the meal was very average. Tasted like something I could whip up at home. I really really wanted to love the food, but I struggled. I would come back in hopes of finding something better on the menu. The service on the other hand is very good & the waiters are lovely.

Thoroughly enjoyed this cafe type vibe restaurant which is also a great venue for parties! I had the salmon fish cakes with Asian salsa & salad that was delicious. The salmon was so fresh & tasty. I then shared the lemon meringue tart & the pecan nut tart with a friend & thought the lemon tart was too sour. The pecan nut tart was too die for though! Will definitely be back.

This restaurant gives you fresh food and fresh ingredients.They have authentic Italian, and we had the pleasure of using them as a caterer for one of our functions at work.The owner is friendly and on point.Their café set up is well lit, breezy, bold  and beautiful.

This hidden gem is located off Rivonia Rd, just past Sandton City (next to the Burger King). After driving by for years I finally stopped for lunch, and what a pleasant surprise! <br/><br/>The setting (within a beautiful office park) is unique and there are no other restaurants around. A beautiful glass enclosed al fresco section looks over the French themed buildings and fountain. <br/><br/>Their menu is diverse, showcasing fresh salads, pastas, sandwiches baked potatoes and other daily specialties. <br/><br/>We tried the smoked salmon and avocado baked potato - a generous meal and a great flavour combination. Also had the haloumi rocket salad which was crisp and fresh. I ordered the chicken and brie fillet with vegetables as well.<br/><br/>The service throughout our meal was friendly and efficient, with the manager also making a turn to see if we're alright. <br/><br/>I will definitely be back for breakfast or for one of their famous high teas...

Stunning setting and good service. But your experience depends on what you order - don't order the beef burger!  Two of us were served well done burgers despite asking for medium rare, but worst of all was the patty - definitely store bought, and not very good quality (frozen?) . My colleague's chicken pasta was very bland. I've had the fishcakes before, which were nice, and another person at our table raved about their fish dish.

A way above average resturant in the Sandton area. Service is near perfect except when they have a major party outside where on might wait alittle while for food.<br/>Really recommend their brunches especially the eggs benedict and the crumpets with bacon and banana.<br/>Pastas are all near perfect.<br/><br/>Well worth a stop

This place never dissapoints, just a consistent gem. Everything is great, from the food to the service. It doesn't matter whether you come from breakfast or lunch, the food is just delicious. Really a great place to get together with work colleagues or a group of friends.

That chicken and leek pot pie💯💯💯💯💯<br/>Worth every calorie! Service is superb. It's creamy, it's hearty, it's flavoursome. Damn it is good.

Nice little place, though I was very disappointed in the service, cutlery was dirty and found hair in the food! All in all not a great experience.

This is a quaint cafe situated in a cosy office block on riven road. It can be a bit difficult to find as it isn't visible from the road, so put the address into your GPS. The decor has a black and white theme, giving it a fresh french cafe type vibe. <br/><br/>The service was average but friendly. The food was reasonable, although I did expect better. We were there as a bunch of finds and so were not in rush last all, but even so, the food did take a very long time to come out. <br/><br/>Its a quaint cafe that is worth a visit for a casual slow lunch.

Such a quaint place in an unassuming location. I've always heard people mention Bella but had never been. In fact, I've driven passed so many times and never knew it was there. Popped in to meet a friend for coffee and cake so never got to sample their menu but will definitely be back to give it a try, as it sounded yummy! As for the coffee and cake... The cappuccino was good and there was a wide selection of cakes on offer. I had the lemon tart, which was delicious but got a bit too "lemony" after a while and I couldn't finish it. My friend had the apple pie, which was also really good and fresh. At R50 for a slice of cake I thought it was a little steep though.

I've been to this nook twice and will be going back often. First time was for a baby shower and went again today for a quick lunch. I had food envy from the moment I walked in. The menu has everything from seared salmon and baby potatoes to hearty oxtail. I opted for an open sandwich with crispy bacon and avo- scrums 😋

What a beautiful lunch! We went for a staff function and had preordered our food via email. The staff was exceptional and very attentive. They even learnt the names of all 20 guests ensuring the correct food went to the right person. <br/><br/>I had the baked potato with salmon, cream cheese and avo. The potato was HUGE and so delicious. Everything tastes fresh and it was accompanied by balsamic dressing and aioli. If you know you want a baked potato, be sure to query if they have first as they sometimes sell out. <br/><br/>Others at the table ordered fillets, prego rolls (on the hot side for some) pastas and more. Everyone agreed that it is definitely worth a visit although slightly over budget for the average lunch.

I've been to Bella's a few times but always for business meetings. Strange now that I think about it. It's light and bright, quaintly decorated with a yum menu. The service is always good. Free wifi but don't abuse it!

Bella is the perfect place for a morning coffee, or a red cappuccino, or a nice breakfast, while meeting with people, in the otherwise busy neighbourhood. Never gotten blown away by the food, but their service and smiles have made me go back regularly.

Not the best service place (perhaps I was too hungry) however, the perfect location, food and ambience made up for that. Had a really great eating experience.

Hidden on the corner just opposite burger king. I would have never guessed there was a restaurant here. We went here for a colleagues birthday lunch. Surprisingly i didnt take pictures as i was new to the company and wasnt sure what my colleagues were like at the time. We had a nice afternoon service was good the food was also tasty even the desserts we shared.

Love this place. Staff and owner are pleasant and always accommodating. The menu is simple and specials keep the menu contemporary.

This place is a hidden gem. Their breakfast is good not amazing. Service is slow, maybe they were just understaffed on the day. Worth a visit for the setting

Bella's is by far my fav breakfast place. It's a quaint restaurant with familiar friendly staff. It's airy with beautify deco of unique things. Service is excellent. Menu is limited bt there's something for everyone. Salmon belladict is my fav as in Apple n ginger juice. They open during the week only so it's a perfect place for breakfast meetings.

A great escape from Sandton, in the middle of Sandton. Went for lunch at this quaint restaurant and what was most notable, was the friendliness and care of the owners and waiters. We were well looked after. .The restaurant has a great sophisticated atmosphere. The food I tried was good, nothing to rave about, but I would be keen to go back to try something else. I do find the food a bit pricey, but it is in the middle of Sandton after all.

If you work/live/play in the Sandton area, Bella is a must try for a breakfast or lunch to soak up some sun and fresh air. Their menu offers a great variety of pastas, salads, sandwiches, etc. to cater for most diets. Be sure to check out their daily specials as this usually contains my meal of choice. The service is good. They are extremely popular over lunch time so be sure to get there early as they do not accept reservations. My favourite part about the Bella experience is the chappies that are provided with the bill!

Bella's is tucked away, hidden just off of Rivonia Road. I was invited to this restaurant for a media function, and we were seated in a marquee alongside the building itself. It was lovely and warm autumn afternoon, and the al fresco setting was enjoyable. I couldn't have the set starter; as a vegetarian I don't eat salmon. The service was reasonable. Unfortunately the waiters ordered one plate short, which made things awkward when the food arrived. I don't feel comfortable eating while someone else waits and our hostess kept inquiring after the 'missing' dish. The vegetarian main was crisp phyllo pastry baskets with butternut, cherry tomatoes and Danish feta, served with a side of roast veggies and roast potato wedges. The baskets were good, but the sides were disappointing with the potato wedges being dry and the veggies being a bit bland. I did pop in at the restaurant, which has a gorgeous airy atmosphere. The decor inside is sophisticated; it's an elegant black and white with charming touches. The cake display caught my eye - a tempting baked cheesecake in particular (I am always on the hunt for the best cheesecake in Joburg). I would like to return some time.

Bella is a bit of a hidden treasure and if a friend of mine didn't know about it from a previous visit, I wouldn't have found it by myself.<br/><br/>We chose to be seated outdoors and I simply adored the decor of neutral shades and loved the atmosphere. It has a laid back vibe about it even though many people had their laptops open and were obviously on business meetings. Patrons included Mommies and their little broods who were also there enjoying a quick bite. <br/><br/>Being a Muslim, eating meat at non-halaal establishments leave very limited options for one to eat. However, Bella had over 10 different seafood and vegetarian items on their menu which one can choose from. I was ecstatic!<br/>I am a big fan of salmon, so I decided to have a delicious salmon salad topped with cottage cheese, avocado and gherkins. It was delicious (and quite large in size!).<br/>My friend had a roast butternut salad topped with other yummy salad items.<br/>I've never been a person who only has a salad for lunch, but this was something I could get used to as it was quite filling.<br/><br/>It's a bit on the expensive side, but their portion sizes are quite large. I had enough leftovers to take home!<br/><br/>Their service was quick, efficient and full of smiles.<br/>I especially loved the fact that they gave real Chappies as a parting breath freshener. Who can resist reading the 'Did you know?' tidbits that's printed on the reverse side of the wrapper?
