Message from Bella Venezia
Bella Venezia is a recently opened Tuscan Italian restaurant , filling a void in the Bernal Heights, and deep Mission district neighborhood. A dining experience there promises to be a casual, yet fulfilling one. The unassuming menu is pleasantly suprising, service caring and attentive, and shouldn't be a heavy burden on the wallet. That's the secret behind venturing on the edgeof MIssion Street and Valencia, where they join. You get value and a fuss free night, and delicious Tuscan cuisine, paired with unique reds and whites, or beer if you must. Welcome to Bella Venezia!

I have gone to Bella Venezia about four times. The dishes are incredible for the right price! Service and hospitality is on point. Owner and staff friendly and very attentive to customer's needs. I highly reccommend italian lovers to try this resturant. Bella Venezia has so much potential. The only downfall for the discovery of this resturant is the location. Not many people go out to eat looking or expecting italian food in the mission area. Moreso people go out to this area looking for tacos and burritos.
Pros: Service, price, and food
Cons: parking, and location

What a great lunch spot. With everything under $10 and five visits with my crew from work, none of us have yet to see a mistake on this menu. The menu has many different tasty pasta dishes and four great meat dishes. The sauces for most dishes our quite tasty. This place will difinitely go in "the book" as a must visit food location!

The bread comes with a great, rich dipping sauce. You'll want seconds. My partner had a wonderful champagne chicken, and I had the spinach ravioli topped with a spicy marinara.
Get to know Eduardo. He's friendly and happy to chat with you. This place is waiting to be discovered. The menu has lots of appealing options. The service is friendly. The atmosphere casual and comfortable. And the price is right.
Pros: Menu. Service. Price.

Some involve ravioli....
If you've ever spent any significant time in the Mission--say more than 30 seconds--you will quickly come to realize that the area has reached its Taqueria saturation point and then some. While this can be slightly depressing to those that fall short of the 24/7 cycle of drunkeness that is required to maintain a love of all things carne asade, there is hope. And by hope, I mean great, inexpensive Italian food in the Mission. Bella Venezia, a recent addition to the Burrito Belt, offers wonderful Tuscan inspired dishes and an attentive ownership that guarantees you will enjoy your visit.
Pros: Food, Price
Cons: No one will belive you when you tell them about a good, cheap Italian restaruant in the Mission
