I ate there with a group there tonight and I ordered the Lasange. I've eaten at many Italian restaurants accross the country and so far my favorite is Salvatore's in Fort Wayne, Indiana. With their lasange dish I eat one there and take like 3-4 to to eat later. At Pasta Bella I took a few bites into my meal and then asked what kind of meat they used, and I was told it was ground beef..... Really? Ground beef???... At Salvatore's they use a veal sausage which is AWESOME!! Also the sauce at Pasta Bella was relatively flavorless. I pretty much had to choke down my meal, and didn't even finish it. To be brutally honest The Other Place in Clear Lake has a better lasange than Pasta Bella, and I've had The OP's lasange many many times. It's my favorite dish there. Will I go to Pasta Bella again? Perhaps, I am not one to let one dish spoil my expectations of a restaurant. Maybe next time I will find a dish more to my liking. Aside from the food the service was excellent. Out waitress was very attentive, and a small child next to us starting crying and throwing a fit. She went right over and entertained the child and was able to get her calmed down to lessen the disruption of every one else's meal. 5 stars to that server. The food would be maybe 2 stars for my experience on this visit however.

I enjoyed my first visit there very much. The ravioli was awesome and i loved the bread. The ravioli could have been a little larger portion. My appetizer of calamari was good size though. Everyone else's meals looked delicious too. seating was not really private.
