The best Italian neighborhood bar in the city! Just The Negroni machine is worth the trip to Little Italy. Some of the friendliest staff in the city with a passion for cocktails & aperitivos! The largest selection of Amaro in the city & a knowledgeable staff to guide through it all!
2026: service was much better this time, our female server was super attentive. I enjoyed the Liguria-inspired coffee cocktail.
2025: Live music & decor were fun.
Had the Ossiola sour (nicely presented) & the Tiramisu cocktail. Both were alright.
Service was friendly but inattentive, we sat down & no one would look our way for twenty minutes so we went up to the bar. If it's just that type of place, just let people know when they come in. Once we ordered, we got our drinks at the table within good time.
Mon bar préféré du quartier avec une équipe en or! Service toujours chaleureux, je suis ravie d'y aller pour toutes les occasions. Les cocktails sont excellents!
Our servers made the experience 10/10. Didn't catch their names but they were awesome. Highly recommend if you're looking to grab a few drinks/appetizers.
Nous avons tenu un meeting d'affaires au Bar Bello & avons été très bien reçus. L'ambiance est chaleureuse, le service attentionné & l'endroit parfaitement adapté pour une rencontre professionnelle en toute convivialité. Merci à toute l'équipe !
Stopped in to have drinks to celebrate my fiancé's birthday & sat at the bar. Thank you to Ethan & his colleagues for the lovely drinks & for making the evening extra special.
