Annette Lansdowne, owner of Sweet Bella.

Mamma Mia, I want more! Sweet Bella's is a true authentic Italian Restaurant. I was blown over by this diamond, a true find. Food is prepared fresh daily, along with the bread. Recipes used are long time family specialties passed down through generations.

This restaurant is as charming as the owners themselves. They really make you feel at home and work onsite daily to ensure quality. Annette Lansdowne and Steve Egel have taken care to plan everything from the food to the deco, and it really shows. The walls are beautifully painted with clean Italian colors (several customers have even asked about the paint colors).

The soothing ambience and classic Italian music, combined with fresh cuisine, will make you want to stay for hours. Pizza dough, bread, and all their other dishes keep guests coming back. In fact, several patrons have driven all the way from Kingwood for a takeout pizza. Every entrée is designed by a culinary chef, with a wonderful selection of Italian deserts and coffees for a happy ending.

I savored the delicious bruschetta and chicken alfredo pizza, finished off with a 'chocolate heaven' for dessert. I can't stop thinking of how great everything is. Prices are incredibly reasonable, so it's no problem getting a group of friends together for a night out enjoying the best Italian food in The Woodlands.

Catering has been well-received by return clients needing help with business lunches and weddings. For delivery directly to your office, just download a menu at their Web site  and call in your order.

This will be one of my frequent stops. Thankfully, there will be more locations opening soon. You don't need reservations, so just get over here as fast you can.

Sweet Bella's is located at 202 Sawdust Road behind H.E.B in the same center as Sones Chiropractic.

I rate this gem a shining 5 acorns. It is truly spectacular!
