    One of the best restaurants we’ve been to so far! They accommodated our group of 5 + baby so well, giving us lots of space and attention! Happy hour was 5-7, plus 1/2 bottles of wine, which almost felt too good to be true. Our waitress even went through the process of finding a natural wine for us, and the whole experience felt so relaxed and comfortable. Water glasses were always filled, empty plates and cups cleared instantly. The little things really make the biggest difference. It never felt too noisy, but just busy enough to enjoy privacy in our conversation, and general atmospheric noise. We recommend to anyone looking for a special place to take family or friends, this will not disappoint and is worth every cent! Also our highlight was the Short Ribs, even the baby went crazy for them!

    I've been a fan of Bellona since their Jane location opened but it was a bit far for me. So I was thrilled when they announced their new College location. This place is a true gem, offering exceptional food, friendly service, and a welcoming ambiance. Whether you're a plant-based or not, the menu has something for everyone and it is delicious. The dishes are beautifully presented and bursting with flavor. The staff is incredibly attentive and friendly and always goes the extra mile to ensure a delightful dining experience. I've already visited the College location twice and I will definitely be back. I can confidently recommend Bellona to anyone looking for an amazing meal.
