Bella Napoli! What a little gem in beautiful Brookside! Brookside iws a fantastic place to eat for several reasons, 1. It has a really cool feel to it when you walk around there. 2. It is super close to my house which makes it easy to get to and easy to come home from! 3. It is were Foo's is located! But enough about the Location lets talk about the dinner.
Bella Napoli, is an Italian restaurant and it doesn't disappoint. As I walked in after coming home from a Royals come from behind win, I truly thought the day could not get any better, but I was wrong it did! As we sat there talking about the game and what was new with everyone, I asked the waiter to recommend a wine for me and all I told him is I prefer a semi dry red wine. He suggested one and at first sip I was in love it was one of the best wines I have had. Now Let me tell you something about service. I know it is tough to always make suggestions and most times they just try to up-sale you something that is okay, but this was a medium priced wine at $7 and it was exactly what I wanted! Props to him. Speaking of service this was by far the best service I have been given and with our group going that extra mile really says something! He was quick, helpful, friendly, fast just everything you wanted in your wait staff. Props to him!
On to the food! I ordered a Spaghetti Allo Scoglio, which was mussels, clams, shrimp, octopus, tomato sauce and hot peppers. Now I am not one to normally order seafood pasta and put red sauce on it, I usually want white, but they pulled it off. It was pretty good, but by far not the best thing at the table or even the best thing on my plate. The best thing on my plate was the asparagus, it was crunchy with a sauce on it which was just terrific! I tried a little bit of everything and it was all excellent, but the best thing I tried was my mothers Pizza, it was great! the crust amazing, the toppings amazing, the pizza AMAZING! Next time i go to this gem i know its lame but I am getting the pizza.
Overall this was my 2nd favorite Italian Restaurant in Kansas City, behind you guessed it Anna's Oven. I will give them a 3.95 cannot wait to go back!
