Cucina Bella

Our server was very pleasant and constantly made sure we were taken care of. The food was very very good. It wasn't very busy during our visit and the ambiance was great.

Most of our food and drink order were good except for the Chicken Marsala that my son ordered (bland) and the house martini drink that my daughter ordered. It tasted like Nyquil. Yeesh.

Our server was attentive and quick.

The ambience was quite nice. Although it was packed, we were still seated quicly since it was already 8p. Acoustics was not bad either. We didnt have to yell across the table just so we can hear each other.

I would go back.

We are long-time customers. It has been our go-to place for over 5 years. There have been a few glitches with service along the way that we overlooked because the food was so delicious.
However, after our last 2 visits, we are looking for a new favorite place to dine. The saltimbocca sauce seems to have changed, not for the better. It no longer has that rich taste my husband so enjoyed. We were told the chef was "tweeking" some of their recipes. Speaking of sauces, the marinara that accompanies the chicken parmesan and side pasta is very bland, very little taste. The bread seems inferior, dry and tiny serving. The soup specials are still a favorite, but why such a small serving?
Reservation requests seldom get returned.
It's sad to leave an old friend, but it looks like this is the new normal for Cuccina, so we have to say "ciao".

Great place & great food!! Service was good as well . Ambiance is great!!
I recommend for a very pleasant dinner or even a good lunch if they are open for lunch. And the commuter train is just steps away from the place. A NW/UP LINE to & from Chicago is very convenient. (Cary. IL station)

Absolutely delicious and the ambiance is romantic. Lights are dimmed , Italian music in the background, topped with some fresh baked bread and you order a bottle of your fav wine. The food was amazing , I ordered the fettuccine Alfredo and also had a delicious minestrone soup, so good! We had the calamari and it was crispy and delicious! Let's talk about the service... our waitress was amazing! She liked our vibes so much she bought us dessert. Tiramisu on her.. she was the best! The whole meal was amazing, the night was perfect!
That's all

Menu has false price advertising. Menu says $18 for vodka and $6 for chicken, how was my pasta $30? To me that's total bizarre and tooexpensive for pasta. And portions are smaller . What's going on here.? We were also dined in for two hours. Service took a very long time with us. We were sat all the way in beck by a party room.

The dishes are huge, the service is efficient, and the ambiance is bustling. I love their sauce in their pastas, and you can purchase them on your way out!

I dont really underatand why people go to chain places like Biaggis when you can go here. Great staff and the food is great. My wife always enjoys their daily risotto options.

First time here! Fabulous restaurant, food, servers and atmosphere! Ambiance is old world Italian. We came on a Sunday evening and it was busy! Glad we had reservations. I'm Italian so I'm rather selective about Italian restaurants. Cucina Bella exceeded our expectations! Great cocktail menu! Menu allows to create and add to your selected pasta, sauces and extras, shrimp, ricotta etc. With the entrees you can have a cup of soup, I had the minestrone and it was excellent! Or a salad, up charge for the Caesar and chopped salads.
We had the gnocchi and chicken saltimbocca. Both were excellent and we had lots of leftovers to take home. Gabby was our server and though she had a lot of tables was personable, knowledgeable and had excellent customer service skills. Highly recommend!

Ahmazing food and service! Huge portions of authentic Italian meals made like your grandma did!!! You won't go hungry leaving here! Fabulous wine menu too!!!
