Not a bad Italian restaurant / bar in downtown Nashua. It's an interesting combo. There is a full bar with seating and sports TVs and also a dedicated restaurant area with booths and tables. The food is ok. Brushetta wasn't great but the steak was nice The service was good. The interior is a little dated.

We went to celebrate a birthday. The food was... well... awful is an understatement. It was not a busy evening, we were sat at a table immediately, the music was good (the only plus of the evening). Cocktails were gross, watered down, or flavorless. The entrees were basically frozen food entrees barely reheated and took forever.

One of the worst restaurants I've been the service was so slow we got our food an hour after sitting down and the restaurant was empty ! By the time we got the food was cold ! I ordered the mussels fra Diavolo they were cold dry and the sauce tasted like it was out of a jar! The next day I woke up sick still tasting the mussels horrible experience ! If you going there to sit at the bar you fine although I wouldn't recommend the food it may make you sick ! the only Italian part in that food is the fancy names they put on them otherwise it's all jar Sauce and old mussels. Will not recommend this restaurant to anyone.

The drinks were very good but when the food came it wasn't great, I ordered a well done burger but it came out medium and the steak I ordered was supposed to be medium well was over cooked and hard, the waitress had a attitude and staff was very rude.0/10 would not recommend.

The bartender was wonderful. Very attentive and understanding. Also willing to adjust for any ones needs. The food was fantastic. Great flavors and presentation. Would highly recommend.

All of the reviews are spot in. We were seated and sat there for 15 minutes before we were waited on. Meals screwed up … steak that was supposed to be medium well was rare… it took another 20 minutes to get these cooked to the right temp. And, the live music— although nice — was so loud we couldn’t hear each other talking across the table. There are too many other great restaurants choices locally — you can skip this place.

Just had dinner with my 2 sons in Nashua, NH. The waiter was very pleasant and attentive to our every need. The Mgr was very pleasant and courteous. The food was very good and would highly recommend Bellissimo restaurant to everyone.

Bad. Just all around bad. Host when we walk in: "two?" That's it. One word. Server: why is the server wearing a black sweatshirt with gold chains hanging out? This is Nashua, not the jersey shore. Drink: I got the small glass of Prosecco (yes, they have two sizes of wine...that should be a sign, right?). It was served in a regular wine glass, filled to the top. I'm all about value, but this was d**** Appetizer: calamari. What we got was a plate over cooked, greasy crumbs with boiled red sauce. Horrific! Entrees: I got the strip steak, my wife got the chicken francese. I mean this is an "Italian steakhouse", so you'd expect a decent steak. Nope. Although the steak was cooked properly, it literally had NO SEASONING. The heat itself was clearly frozen and thawed, because it had that waterlogged look and flavor. And my side of broccoli? It was grey/brown. My wife's chicken, although presented visually appealing, also had no flavor. She thought maybe they left the lemon out of the sauce. The bright part? The live music! This guy was pretty good! I guess all I can say is that I look forward to the restaurant that moves in after this place goes out of business. Just bad bad bad.

Cute restaurant in a former Bank building. The town is very quaint and would like to come back and explore more. Not sure if I would go back to Bellissimo's or not . Food was OK but nothing spectacular but in fairness we live in a town with a large Italian population and have Chicken Franchise on a regular basis. Sauce was a bit on the thick side and did not have much of a lemon flavor. Chicken was served over Ángel hair which is how I like it but the other order of chicken was suppose to have a side of penne with red sauce. Chicken was served over penne and the side with red sauce never came, despite telling two waitresses. Food was rather slow to come out and unfortunately we could not wait any longer as we had timed tickets for Haunted Overload. Wait staff were friendly but food was slow to come. Dish came with garlic knots which were tasty and you definitely needed it as you would starve to death waiting for your food. Sorry no pic as we were in a hurry.
We visited a few weeks had a great experience & actually can't wait to go back. Our server Maddie was fantastic - we can be a finicky bunch but no matter what we asked she always delivered w/a smile. The live music was awesome. GG Cosmo made perfect light pink not too much lime juice. Def. agree w/others they need a new recipe for the espresso martini, daughter ordered and returned. We were served garlic knots with our salads, both good. I ordered the filet on a stone it was a perfect cut of filet mignon and I loved that I could bring to the temp that I wanted right at the table. My sister ordered Chicken Francese was disappointed that is was not made the traditional way but still enjoyed it. My daughter had chicken Alfredo they added broccoli for her no problem.

I'm having a hard time coming up with one good word. We had high hopes for this new Main Street restaurant however EVERYTHING fell flat. Our party of six had a comedy of errors happen to us this evening. I want to begin by saying that our group for dinner is extremely forgiving of the shortage that restaurants are experiencing right now however there is no room for forgiveness. Let me begin: 1. It took over 30 min to get our first round of drinks 2. Never were we offered bread 3. After getting our first round after 30 min we were told that the bar is down a person 4. A drink listed as a martini came on the rocks 5. Espresso martini was curdling in front of our eyes 6. Moscow mule sub vodka for tequila was straight tequila, multiple times l ordered again; we assumed that they were pouring heavy to make up for the awful experience we were having 7. Refill of WATER was slow 8. We had to order appetizers AND dinner at the same time because if we didn't, we would have been there all night but the service was so slow, we had the time to figure out what we want led 9. Don't order the steak on a stone: it's pointless 10. Don't order the saffron lobster risotto because although it's listed on the menu AND their website, it's not available and you will get lobster raviolis. 11. When the unordered lobster ravioli comes out the server and the kitchen tell you that you ordered wrong and we had to request a menu to prove that us, the customer, was correct. 12. Took way to long for our food 13. Food came out Luke warm at best 14. Chicken fettuccini Alfredo tasted frozen 15. Sides of broccoli were cold I could go on but I believe my point was made. NEVER returning to this horrid establishment and save your money and time and do the same. Good riddance. Can't wait to see what replaces this perfect location on Main Street..

We dined at Bellissimo for the third time tonight. Every time has been great! The second visit the appetizer was over cooked and they replaced it quickly very happily without issue… Being a new restaurant with new cooks this was totally understandable and handled well. Our most recent visit was tonight. Our server Maddie was super friendly and helpful with menu and drink questions. Portions of both food and wine pours are large and worth the price. The half off martinis from 7-9 Saturdays was a great unexpected perk! Highly recommend this spot to anyone looking for downtown Nashua dining!

By far the best bar downtown Nashua. Great drinks, reasonable prices. Brianna and Josh are great drink makers. The owner Jay is an incredible person who truly cares about his customers and employees.
