This Belle restaurant was having an identity crisis. On the outside, the sign said Las Cazuelas Mexican Restaurant. Inside, the menu said Los Habaneros Mexican Restaurant. And, now, both of those are closed and have been replaced with Guadalajara Modern Mexican, which I've not yet been to.



Some basic chips & salsa were served to the table. Simple. Serviceable.



For my entree, I ordered a "California Burrito," which I tend to think of as a giant cylinder full of ingredients. This was a flattened flour tortilla filled with grilled chicken, rice, beans and grilled vegetables. It was topped with queso and sour cream.



The dish landed more in the realm of routine than memorable. The grilled chicken was tender but lightly seasoned, blending into the rice, beans and vegetables without any one component really standing out. It was fine.



Grade: C

Bellissimo is a fairly new restaurant in the Belle/Dupont City area that has gotten a lot of attention recently after having been featured in the local newspaper.



This small space has been packed lately, but we went after the crowd died down to try a few things.



The menu is pretty large - with everything from pizza and pasta to burgers and gyros.



Pepperoni roll









Medium pizza with half mushrooms, half pepperoni
