After a long day of sightseeing, our feet were tired and our stomach growling from hunger... this was not our first choice but the other restaurant we're supposed to go was further than our feet can handle. We were greeted by a very friendly receptionist. place is nice (although they could add few more lights so we can see the food we're eating). Price is ok, serving is adequate and the food is really good, kudos to the chef. Highly recommend this
Be the first to ReplyMy 2nd time at Bella Cosa.
It's a winner!The cuisine is southern Italian, the hospitality is fantastic! I like this venue so much because it is stylist yet cosy, like going to the home of an Italian family.Booking is easy and you get a warm welcome on arrival. There are 2 levels, a full bar on both. On the upper level is a lovely mezzanine where you can view the river while sipping on drinks & having bar snacks. The main restaurant is lovely, not overly posh and tables spaced nicely. Loos are in good order too.We had some great selections on this outing, I was in the mood for broad beans and theirs didn't disappoint. The gnocchi was little pillows of perfection. Seafood cooked beautifully. Bella Cosa is open for lunch through to dinner & offers lunch specials too.Do yourself a favour and treat yourself to some of the best Italian food outside of Italy. Full marks! Grazie mille Bella Cosa.

A hidden gem that should be sought out by everyone on their visit to London. I can't say enough about it. Phenomenal creativity in the kitchen matched by unique Italian wines.

Fantastic, authentic Italian restaurant - menu is ambitious but extremely well executed. Several notches above other Italian restaurants in the area. Squid ink pasta with lobster and crab meat is wonderful. Scallops are excellent as well. Seafood cooked to perfection, which is relatively hard to find.Wine list is diverse and eclectic, and very reasonably priced.Antonio is a very gracious host.Highly recommended, will keep coming back.

Fine Dining how it should be! Hard to find, though is the hidden gem in Surrey Quays.Entrée was a Pan Seared Scallop, Chick Pea, Cinta Sense Lardo, Sea Herbs - best scallops I think I've ever had! And the presentation was fanatics. It's amazing how Bella Cosa was able to fuse into some brilliant insightful ingredients to create an extraordinary dish! I was sold on this dish alone, though this was only the first. Candy was up next - well at least that's how the pasta was shaped! On the menu they call it "Smoked Ricotta 'Caramelle' Candy Shape Pasta, Lamb Ragout, Broad Beans, Pecorino Romano, Mint". And this is exactly how my taste buds reacted - a kid running around excitedly in a candy store. Not only was this dish visually appealing, the soft ricotta combined with the snappy texture of the broad beans umbrellaed with the tangy mint is pure genius insightfulness of the chief! Red Mullet in Kataifi, Broccoli Puree Turnip, Lemon was the main dish. This seemed to be a rather experimental dish. Yes, I can see the logic, yes, I appreciate an innovative approach in food creation, though I was anticipating a little bit more when I ordered it. I adore broccoli, actually I'll eat them raw, cooked, pureed or steamed, though somehow, not even the lemon brought them to life in this dish. So, as the Estonians would say about Lemons: "Sid, run from this dish".A sugar explosion was created by the desserts - White Chocolate, Strawberry, Green Tea (if you haven't already checked out the photos this is the time to) - and this is exactly what desserts should do! What a fabulous combination - White Chocolate because who doesn't love chocolate? And a good source of sugar (59% to be exact, more than a Mars Bar!), strawberries to provide a freshness swing and then, obviously, the passive caffeine kick, though just enough to get you home - though not a minute more. The presentation, as all the dishes, was a piece of art.I would recommend Bella Cosa for numerous occasions: dates, business meetings and even a good group of friends that want to have a fabulous experience.

I got the privilege of attending a tasting dinner for the new set menu for Bella Cosa in their fine dining floor which looks out into the river and overlooks Canary Wharf. The venue is a little bit tucked away near South Quay, but very worth it once you find it. It has plush red leather seats and marble flooring, with a vast wine selection at the corner of the room.The menu consists of an amuse bouche, starter, pasta, main and dessert with petit fours afterwards. The service was excellent and the food/wine pairings were fabulous. For each course, they do have a wine pairing recommendation which you should definitely heed if you're big on wine. The menu is not that different to what you'd expect from a Michelin star restaurant, with taste, texture and presentation all on point. Note that the pictures I added of the food are half the size (due to it being a tasting), so the regular meal should be sufficient for dinner should you come to dine. The food is Italian inspired, but I must admit I've never actually experienced Italian fine dining before, and this was superb. The mixtures of all the different flavors in each dish is quite special and very worth trying. It's such a difference from your everyday menu as you can see each course is curated to the detail. I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone who fancies a bit of a change from the hustle and bustle of Soho, Mayfair or Knightsbridge for fine dining. The bonus is that you have a view of the river whilst enjoying food that's of a very high standard. It's refreshing to have a more relaxed luxury environment whilst enjoying high quality food and excellent service for dinner

Tucked away in Surrey Quays is Bella Cosa, perhaps a little hard to find from the main road, but should you find it (and you should), you'll walk into what is a beautifully decked out restaurant with great views of Canary Wharf. Downstairs is a fairly casual affair but upstairs is where a really great experience can be had. The owners have spared no expense in the décor, the food and the wine. The dining area (although downstairs is both a dining area and a bar) has a main floor as well as two areas that can be converted to private dining, one of which contains their wine room, stocked with an extensive range of Italian wines, being Italian fine dining. You'll be able to find your favourite champagne, and they will have some International wines, but expect to be drinking something Italian.My menu that night consisted of a somewhat traditional order of an antipasto, a primo, a secondo and a dolce. Each served with its own accompanying wine. An amuse bouche from the chef started the meal and was already a sign that we were in for a treat. My antipasto of a green veloute had a powerful flavour (okay the photo wasn't great after the parmesan had been shaved over it) but you could honestly taste every ingredient that had been used, nothing was overpowering and there were enough variations of texture that kept the dish interesting, something that can be lacking in a veloute. I wanted to clean my plate. The primo of pasta was a sight to see. Plain and green pasta melded together and shaped into bonbons with a smoked ricotta filling. The time it must have taken to create them... The lamb ragout served with it obviously had a lot of care put into it and while I don't normally care for mint (I know they go well together for most people, I just don't like it) it worked just right as a counterpoint.A twice cooked pork belly appeared as my secondo, along with vegetables and a single dumpling filled with sausage meat. Delicious and melt in your mouth (was it fatty? Yes, it's pork belly, deal with it), and again lead to a clean plate. Finally, the dessert, and I was intrigued enough by the offering of "Fennel, coffee, whiskey" that I chose that instead of "white chocolate, strawberry, green tea" (which is a flavour combination I think is a lot more common). What was delivered was a martini glass with coffee dirt, whiskey jelly and fennel ice cream, with a fried spring of fennel on top. What is fennel ice cream like? Well, I've had it once, and I can say that every time I've had it, it was delicious. Your experiences tasting fennel ice cream in locations not Bella Cosa may vary, but this was top notch. Combining the cold ice cream with the crunchy coffee and the slightly gummy whiskey was a great experience, I hope they still have it when I next visit.Throughout the meal, the staff were attentive and kept glasses refilled. We never had to ask what something was, a description was always on hand. It wasn't a stiff service either, but some gentle banter was had. Sometimes it's welcome and I feel that if I had wanted them to stop, they would have done so without prompting.I went to the restaurant thinking this would be a good meal that I could catch up over friends with. I finished wondering when we could come again as catching up had fallen by the wayside in the face of what had been served to us.
Be the first to ReplyBella Cosa is such a lovely restaurant if you are seeking
Bella Cosa is such a lovely restaurant if you are seeking something special and romantic in Canary Wharf area. It is situated next to the canal/river with some nice views. The staff are all very pleasant and really do bend over backwards to make your night a special one. The food itself is very classy and very unique. All the food I had was very succulent and fresh and presented in a Michelin star style. In particular the smoked ricotta candy shaped pasta looked amazing like a real candy. The mint that came through when eating it and the creaminess of the ricotta was just heavenly and nothing like I have ever tasted before or even seen before. The red mullet wrapped in kataifi (was a bit like crispy noodles) was so beautifully presented especially with the flowers on top it really made me feel I was eating in a Michelin starred restaurant (even though it is not yet) plus the taste was so different and unique. Those two dishes I really do highly recommend having for something that little different and special. I would highly recommend to anyone to go along to this restaurant that is looking for some class. Plus as I have mentioned before this is not a Michelin starred restaurant as yet but it really should be as it truly is fine dining at it's best.
