We came to Bella Cucina for brunch as we had heard wind that this Italian establishment has started a breakfast lunch menu. The food was prepared really quickly and although the menu items seem simplistic , the flavours were bold and tasty
The potato and corn rosti was a great generous dish, the rosti was crispy and the bacon with the hollandaise and capsicum sauce was a really unique and pleasant combination
The pancakes was a monster of a dish that really defeated us, we were shocked at how large it was and really enjoyed that it was crispy outside ( similar to deep fried) and how fluffy it was on the inside
The gnocchi we ordered with the carbonara sauce was also a very generous dish, the gnocchi which were home made were light and soft. The sauce was very rich so it was good we shared this one
Thank you for having us in !
Loved it – we were well looked after!
Food was amazing, we started with pizza and then had mains which included seafood paella and linguine pasta! Atmosphere was cosy and very family friendly. Will definitely recommend to anyone who is looking for a good feed nearby Rowville!
Thanks again guys!

I was invited to Bella Cucina to sample their new breakfast menu. Breakfast is a new foray for this Italian restaurant and they do it quite well. I loved the interiors upon entry. The stunning tiled communal tabletop in shades of blue and white was just gorgeous. I kicked off with a chai latte which was on the sweet side (my preferred)
I ordered smashed avo with a side of salmon and my sister chose the green omelette. A delicious and somewhat healthy start to the day knowing we were going to finish with the raspberry pancake. The pancake is a thick and fluffy singular delight topped with vanilla ice cream and berry compote. A classic combination, nothing too fancy just simple and well executed. We detected some zingy popping candy on the plate too which really elevated it to something special.
A great early morning option for the locals of Rowville. Id love to come back and sample the creations from the pizza oven one day…
Bella Cucina has recently extended their opening hours to include a breakfast/ brunch menu so we came out to Rowville to check it out. The venue has a huge amount of parking but more importantly it was warm and welcoming as a result of plenty of pizza oven stoking, in anticipation of the, later in the day lunchtime rush.
The breakfast menu read very well and between the two of us we tried the Bacon Benedict, Potato & Corn Rosti and the Raspberry Pancakes.
I started off with coffee which was served hot, something I have certainly been appreciative of in this cooler weather.
The Bacon Benedict had bacon and sauted spinach served over brioche with a two poached eggs under zesty lemony hollandaise sauce. I also added a serve of avocado which refreshingly came unsmashed for you to do with as you please. A tasty but rich dish and certainly one to fill you up.
The Potato Corn Rosti has a sizeable square Rosti and also had the sauted spinach and also came with a poached egg and hollandaise. It was similarly rich like the Benedict making for a hearty start to the day.
I left the best till last as we finished with the Raspberry Pancakes. Correction I should have said pancake. This was one serious thick pancake and yet it was still light and fluffy despite its dimensions. It was served with a generous raspberry pure and ice cream. A simple but tasty pancake.
Our pre 9am visit was too early for drinks but Bella Cucina has local craft beer, produced two brothers, on tap and does a $20 pizza and beer special. Something for another time perhaps.
Thanks so much for inviting us in.
What a great find in Rowville off the main drag. If I hadnt been invited I would have never known it was there.
Greeted my the most friendly staff I have ever come across. All the wait staff were so happy it was a lovely atmosphere. The interior was well presented. They have a wood fired pizza oven but it wasnt hot in the restaurant even though it was 37 degrees outside.
We started off with 2 small pies of complimentary olive sour dough, I could have eaten a whole loaf!!! Dense but soft if that makes sense. The olives salty but great. I had the gnocchi with mushrooms and coming from an Italian background could not fault it. Apparently the spaghetti meatballs were fantastic and the portion size was amazing. Great size for one hungry man. My girlfriend had the chicken risotto and said it was fantastic, while my partner had the seafood linguini which he said was alright.
The gelato was fantastic, a great refreshing end to the meal. The raspberry one was just amazing and the lemon one just tangy enough. My friend had the cannoli and said it was just fantastic.
They have 3 home brewed beers on tap by 2 Brothers, while the aperitifs and wine list was great.
My only comment that could be negative was I thought given the location their meals were probably a couple of dollars too expensive.. Think we will go again.
