Pizzeria Bello Forno

Great pizza and service. Very different kinds of pizza that work well. A must try when in the orcutt area. This place just gets better everytime I go. Chicken Picatta! Off the hook. Very good. All pastas are excellent. Also get the meatballs in the vodka sauce. Just had the vodka sauce with peppers and sausage, really good. Also you can get any pizza, pasta style. Try it, take all ingredients from the pizza and pair with a pasta. Of course no pizza dough. Awesome. Such a great place to eat and hangout. They have cool things coming. So tonight I had the New Yorker and the Hot Honey. The pizza amazes me all the time. I had a chance to talk to the pizza makers and one guy had been there since they opened. The conversation with these guys makes the food taste so much better. If you get a chance to talk to the people making your food, it makes the experience really fun. I dont want to get a table and not be able to be a part of the cooking process. My advice is talk to people, have a good time. I'd your on the fly and never been here, open up and taste what you can. Such good food. I just had the steak sliders and OMG they are good. This slider is a must try, very tender and not like a tritip sandwich. This melted in your mouth. A very good sandwich. They also have a new soppressata pizza which I didnt try but next time. Get into Bello Forno it's a must, great atmosphere, great people and staff. Good things are coming so stay tuned. Some new food at bello forno is here and a happy hour. For $10 you can get a bunch of items. Go in to see what you can get. Beers for 5 bucks woot woot!

It's the sourdough pizza that makes this place Magnifico! There is not a pizza that is not liked! Bello Forno also offers a Gluten Free pizza dough as well. Counter seating as well as booth seating indoors and a small outdoor patio that was set up during Covid, is still available as of May 2022. This restaurant is small and fills up quickly during peak hours. There is a wide selection of beers and wines. A select list of four cocktails (made with wine). Not drinking but thirsty? Their Hubiscus Tea is an enjoyable treat. We shared an order of House-made Angus Beef Meatballs served in their house-made Marinara Sauce. They use fresh tomatoes which gives the sauce an authentic flavor. The two pizzas of choice today were the Mealovers-Herbed Red Sauce with Italian Fennel Sausage, Pepperoni, Mazzarella and Parmesan. And the Tart Cherries and Sausage. This is an eclectic culinary experience with EVOO with Tart Cherries, Italian Fennel Sausage, Mozzarella and Goat Cheese topped with Arugula. Pizzeria Bella Forno also offers a Prosciutto Pear pizza. As well as Salads and House Made Pastas. Parking could be difficult as their outside patio took over their frontage parking spaces. Neighboring spaces fill up quickly. There is Public Parking around the corner along the street on both sides. Plan ahead.
