Easily one of the best dining experiences I've had in a long time. Every dish we ordered was packed with flavor & came out perfectly cooked & beautifully presented. You can tell there's real attention to quality & consistency in the kitchen.
The service was just as impressive-warm, professional, & genuinely attentive. The staff made us feel welcome right away & checked in at all the right moments without being intrusive. It really elevated the entire experience.
Great food, amazing service, & an all-around fantastic atmosphere. This is the kind of place you leave already planning your next visit. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a top-tier Italian dining experience.
We had a lovely dinner her while in town. We arrived early on a Thursday evening. This is a BYOB (Bring your own Beverages) place & they reminded us right away so that we could go get a bottle or two for our group. They have specials of the day & a great menu. We started with appetizers - the Calamari with Figs (excellent) & smoked Boar. I had the special - fish dish, & the cake for dessert. The place was pleasantly busy when we left. You could still have a great conversation. I would definitely recommend.

Super romantic & cozy restaurant! Would definitely recommend for a date night. The food is 10/10, you can definitely tell the chef puts his personal touch. Our server was super attentive & fast.
The best authentic italian food you'll find in the city! This family-run trattoria offers a cozy atmosphere, specialty dishes, & exceptional service!! Highly recommend!
If you're looking for a true taste of Bari, this restaurant is an absolute gem. From the moment we walked in, the ambiance was warm & authentic - the kind of setting that immediately transports you to southern Italy.
We tried a variety of traditional dishes: osobuco cooked to perfection, trippa full of deep, comforting flavors, & the freshest buffalo mozzarella I've ever had. Every bite spoke of quality ingredients & respect for tradition.
The service was truly A1 - attentive, friendly, & knowledgeable, making us feel like honored guests rather than just customers.
Simply put, you won't find better food or a more authentic Barese experience outside of Bari itself. Highly recommended for anyone who loves genuine Italian cuisine.
We had a beautiful family baptism celebration at Trattoria Bellamore this weekend & it was simply outstanding! From the amazing food, service & the attention to detail from Daniele & his team we were blown away & very grateful for the experience, we highly recommend, will not be disappointed!
We stumbled upon this restaurant online, & we were so glad we did.
The owner Daniel could not have been more welcoming & professional.
My wife & I shared the Osso Bucco platter & our friends had two other delicious dishes.
The service was impeccable & Daniel explained everything on the menu to us so that we could make the right choices. The place is quite small & very intimate, so reservations are definitely recommended.
Needless to say we will absolutely be back.
L'aspect apportez votre vin nous a attiré pour un souper entre amis. Nous avons vécu une expérience hors de ce monde. Expérience culinaire sortant de l'ordinaire allant des melons d'eau avec la burrata à la sauce à l'estragon avec la bavette.
Daniel a su adapté le rythme de son service à la perfection pour notre get together amical.
Valeur optimale, je recommande sans réserve.

I had an amazing dining experience! The service was exceptional, & the atmosphere was perfect. The highlight of my meal was definitely the rapini risotto - it was absolutely delicious! Perfectly cooked with a wonderful balance of flavors. I highly recommend this place & can't wait to return!
I just had dinner at Bellamore. Highly recommend. The food there is very good. The service is HIGHLY rated for me as Daniel (our waiter/host) was serving 8-9 tables at the same time & we were never missing anything on the table. He just knew when we needed something & his hospitality is incomparable. As for the atmosphere, it's very simple, dimmed lights, very cozy overall. Trattoria Bellamore offers a great Italian restaurant experience that will make you want to come back for more. 10/10 Thank you Daniel
