Ciao Bella   

Great outdoor dining by day and night. Food excxellent. Recommend the mussels as an app. and the inventive Ciao Bella mustard seasoned baby veal medallions. Yummy. Wine list is excellent and servers helpful in selecting.

I picked this restaurant from the web. It was not at all what I expected. The website had a picture of an old Corner Brownstone. I anticipated something like where you would expect to see Frank Sinatra seated. It was very modern with alot of glass. The tables were too small to be comfortable. The service was good, but the menu was just not what I was expecting. Too many "inventive" dishes and not enough of the good old fashioned southern pasta dishes for me. I ended up ordering the shrimp with garlic cream sauce over pasta. The dish was good (just not what I was looking for). I couldn't find a single dish that was appealing. My dish ended up being way too rich and real heavy on the cream sauce and not enough garlic for my taste. Still the view of Newbury St. was delightful.

Great location, fine food and excellent service! Veal parmigian was very tasty as was the pasta. Great salad and fine choice of wine to compliment the meal. Love the location. This is a must!
