Neighbourhood gem

BellaBrava New World Trattoria was born in 2005 in Downtown Saint Petersburg. Over the years since, BellaBrava has been voted Best Restaurant in Saint Petersburg, Best Italian, and is a perennial Guest favorite on Beach Drive.

Less formal than a ristorante, our service is casual, our prices remain reasonable and our emphasis is on a steady clientele rather than haute cuisine. Old World flavors mingle with New World flair. From seafood to traditional pasta, pizzas, and more, we are positive everyone will find something delicious to savor.

BellaBrava’s unique Woodstone™ ovens cook delicious pizzas and a guest favorite, the Crostata.

Our ingredients are fresh, often locally sourced, and evoke the flavors of Tuscany and other delicious cuisines from Italy. With friendly, competent staff, BellaBrava aims to be your casual dining spot.

My wife and I dined this weekend. We started off with caeser salad and a bique that were both good.. I ordered the chicken caccatiore that was very good but came with mashed potato. Pasta would have been prefered. My wife had the eggplant parm that was very dry and pasta was very al dente.

A very cranky, screaming baby could not be calmed by the young parents who were dining with grandparents. It is desirable if a restaurant has an adult only section. No fault of the restaurant but just made our lunch date with friends we see once a year less pleasant.
