Delicious home cooked meals. Fantastic birthday gateau, homemade sponge not synthetic shop brought, we mentioned a birthday cake they supplied for a reasonable cost. Tier effect fresh cream, fresh fruits and curls of chocolate made it look spectacular and mouth watering most grand!
Also friendly service.

Very helpful, were happy to open Saturday afternoon for my sister's birthday, a banner outside, balloons and decorations on the table, were unexpected and a lovely surprise. The food was very good, the staff were very attentive but the atmosphere was relaxed, we all enjoyed ourselves very much. A big thank you. Winifred Maine (08/04/2010) says....
My husband and I visited your restaurant with two friends on the evening of Sunday, 21st March , 2010. We had a most pleasant evening in your warm restaurant with an immediate and friendly welcome, which continued throughout our meal. Each of us had a delicious meal- the profiteroles are especially remembered! It was very happy start to our holiday beginning next morning. Unfortunately, we do not live in the area or we should be happy to return.
Steve and Jan Payne (08/04/2010) says....
Never a visit goes by without yet another great eating experience. The friendliness of Ibo and his team always makes for a relaxed lunch or dinner with unobtrusive service, a flexible menu and without your pocket smarting from the bill. The ability to take anybody of any age to Casa Bella, and know they will always find something they want to eat makes this the place to go in 'downtown' Altrincham!
Tony & Kate, Altrincham (04/04/2010) says....
GREAT!!!!!
Superb service, superb food, went for the sea bass and sea bream specials and both were excellent!
Our favourite restaurant by far!

Had a perfect evening, the food was out of this world, will definitely be back for more soon. thank you very much to all the staff Sam, Altrincham (18/03/2010) says....
My partner, his mum and I visited Casa Bella on Sat 13th March. As always the food was excellent and I think that the service was even better than previous times we have visited. It is an excellent local restaurant and wouldn't be a miss in Manchester. They always have great specials on food and wine but I love the lasagne and find it difficult to choose anything else. Since we found casa Bella we have dined there once a month which I am sure will continue.

My wife and I visited Casa Bella on 11/03/10.We had never been before -we were looking for an opportunity to dine prior to attending the Garrick Theatre in Altrincham.Our meal and the service and attention was excellent and very good value too!We have no hesitation in recommending Casa Bella.

I went to Casa Bella with a group of friends last week and had a lovely meal. I had minestrone soup followed by Tagliatelle Funghi and cheescake for desert all of which I would have again, especially the tagliatelle. All my friends enjoyed their food too. Service was very attentive and friendly even though the restaurant was almost full, the restaurant itself is very cosy and welcoming. We all had rather a lot of the house wine, but splitting the bill still only came to £30 each which was very reasonable. I'm sure we'll all be visiting again soon. |

My partner and I went to this restaurant for the first time last week and I have to say that it is one of the best restaurants I have ever eaten in. The service was excellent and the food was amazing. I can not believe that I have never been before, I can not wait to go again. |

We booked a meal for 16 people to celebrate my son's 21st birthday. I can honestly say that nobody was disappointed.The meals we chose were from the set Christmas menu; the restaurant staff were extremely accommodating for a relative who requires gluten free food and they provided her with a separate meal.The service and atmosphere was brilliant, all the staff were friendly and made us feel very welcome. All of our party commented on the success of the evening.Thank you Casa Bella, we will certainly be back to eat with you again. |

This is a restaurant of which I have heard good reports but never got around to visiting. It is situated on the main Manchester road through Broadheath close to the Retail Park. There is plenty of free, local parking.
The menu is extensive, classically Italian, accompanied by a very good wine list. We ordered a bottle of house red, which turned out to be a very good Italian Merlot.
We chose garlic pizza bread and a bowl of minestrone soup to start, both came home-made, piping hot and very tasty.
For my main course I ordered lasagne, one of my all time Italian favourites. It was served with freshly grated fresh parmesan cheese. My dining partner ordered Pollo Dragoncello, which is chicken delightfully cooked with mushrooms and tarragon in a white cream sauce. A dish of nicely cooked vegetables accompanied the chicken.
There was no room left for pudding so we ordered two frothy cappuccinos, sat back and relaxed.
Whilst we were ordering a group of some twenty five ladies arrived for dinner, pretty much filling up the restaurant. They were all in very good humour and looking forward to their evening out. We got chatting to these ladies later in the evening and discovered they were all staff from Boots in Altrincham celebrating the birthday of one of their number.
Although the restaurant was now busy the staff remained attentive and cheerful, looking after their happy group of customers very well.
There is a family feel about this restaurant that is warm and relaxing; a little Italian oasis in the middle of Broadheath. It isn’t expensive either. I can’t remember exactly how much, but it was certainly very good value.
There is an early dining offer of 2 courses for 2 people with a bottle of house wine for £30. Great value!
Will we return?
Yes, good food and atmosphere.
Our verdict
Atmosphere: 9/10
Service: 9/10
Food: 9/10

We found this via the web and looked good. We had an excellent meal with friendly attentive service in a pleasant atmosphere. A good reasonably priced menu with daily specials.
The Casa Bella is on main A556 but not easy to spot driving along. It is in a small group of properties Manchester side of the big retail park, about half mile from Premier Inn.
An excellent meal with friendly attentive service. |

Casa Bella the restaurant that just when you think its not possible gets better and better. If you are a bit of a hopeless foodie then do not miss this restaurant, the food is fresh its cooked fresh and the menu apart from the typical Italian dishes also has a fabulous array of specials. Fish lovers that love their fish with a sauce or complimenting veg to work with, rather than overpower the sometimes subtle flavours will be spoilt. Value for money and certainly no compromise on quality, take advantage of the Early Bird menu , all three courses with ample to choose from and a glass of wine and your coffee excellent value at £14.95 . You have nothing to lose by giving this restaurant a try, for a special occasion or quick meal out. Whats more look out for the sunday roasts which will shortly be available, we test run it and girls you will want to cook no more on a sunday !!!

We dine at Casa Bella quite often and with Ibo being Turkish, we asked him (in advance) to cook us a Turkish meal for ourselves and a friend. We were not disappointed. The food was delicious, starting with a mixed mezes and then various meat dishes, etc., all cooked on charcoal. Thanks Ibo and Ian.

Have been many times, before Christmas we went in with a party of 10 and couldn't fault anything. Went in again on New Years Eve just the two of us and we had a fantastic evening, the food, company of other diners and the restaurant staff made for a great evening. Thanks to Ibo and his staff - they really made sure everyone enjoyed themselves, even bringing out more food for everyone after midnight. We went in again last night and again, the food was fantastic. We can highly recommend this restaurant and look forward to our next visit.

Went to Casa Bella on a Sunday evening. The cheesy garlic bread was delicious, we then ordered two pasta dishes, both were excellent. Followed by banoffie pie, which we'd highly recommend. The staff were very attentive. The chef on the night was Ebo who is also the owner. He came over for a chat, a great personal touch ! Looking forward to a return visit already.

just a quick note to say how much my husband and i enjoyed ourselves last weekend at your restaurant. Food and wine were fabulous. Also i have noted how nice the exterior is now looking with your new flash canopy and sitting area. Its nice to see local businesses making improvements in the local area. Well done to all. Ireen.

Went to Casa Bella yet again on 22 September 07 for family meal to celebrate our wedding anniversary. Yet again it was fantastic. Food was exceptional - I had lamb steam with rosemary and garlic from the special board. The lamb just melted in your mouth. Five of us all had different main courses and each one was delicious. Their minestrone soup is the best I have ever tasted, and that is from someone who had an Italian mother and was weaned on italian food. You must visit this restaurant because you won't be disappointed. Book though because it gets really busy.

Nice interior, lunch menu was very reasonably priced and everything tasted really nice and freshly cooked. Nice friendly staff as well. Great place for a quick lunch at a reasonable price. We will definitely be going again. Recommended from everyone at Pennine Kennedy Solicitors and Estate Agents, Altrincham.

Excellent food, very warm welcome and speedy efficient service all night. Overall one of the best dining experiences we have had recently - and this is on their first night!! I chose the Bistecce al Pepe, a decent sized steak with a delicious peppercorn sauce generously poured over it. She had Peene Pollo with big, tasty chunks of Chicken breast. Get over and try this restaurant soon Thanks to all the staff.
