Owners Fabio Cirello and Vincenzo Morelli have created a little piece of Italy right in the centre of Terenure village.
This smartly glass-fronted Dublin restaurants one of those rare and authentic little gems that you don’t find very often. Inside, there’s a definite Italian atmosphere – the music, the food, the waiters, right down to the large bottle of extra-virgin olive oil on every table.
You’ll find all the usual Italian fare here –starters include Aubergine bake with tomato, basil and Parmesan - and an antipasto with cured meats and grilled vegetables.
Mains offer a wide range of pastas and pizzas but you might prefer to try a real classic – spaghetti alle vongole – spaghetti with white wine, clams and cherry tomatoes, or tonnarelli mare e monti with beef fillet, prawns and rose sauce
No Italian menu is complete without luscious desserts like tiramisu or pannacotta, and here you can also try a selection of the homemade ice cream Italians are famous for, or perhaps an Italian cheese board, offering a selection of artisan DOP cheeses.
To accompany there’s an excellent selection of regional Italian wines, that include Sardinia and Sicily and the famous Barolo wines of Piemonte.
Bellagio delivers deliciously authentic food, good value and great Italian service - perfect for a girlie lunch, informal business meeting, tasty dinner, or simply people watching through that big glass frontage. All round, a great asset to Terenure.
