A good place to dine if you want real, properly cooked food instead of the shipped in generic stuff that you get at many of the other eating places.The Calamari was tasty and soft, the mussels were equaly good. The Kleftico lamb shoulder I had was cooked to pefection as was the Stifado beef in red wine and the portions were very generous.We will definitely go to the Bellapais again and can highly recommend this dining venue.

Hands down the best place for steak in Colchester. Great service and amazing value for money. Can't recommend this restaurant enough.

If you want you best steak, look no further top food and top service! My favourite place to eat.

Restaurant, too cramped.Plate, too full.Food wasted due to there being far too much on the plate.Think of the increased profit if they put 'normal' portions on the plate.My Kleftico was lovely, I just couldn't eat it due to my starter being far too large.

Amazing, best steak we have ever had and the service was exceptional! Well worth the money but very reasonably priced as well. Big portion sizes so definitely over ordered but just fantastic!

What's not to love about Bella Pais? If you've been here you know. If you haven't book now for a future night out. Excellent menu, huge portions of yummy food. The steak is awesome!

First time here after trying to get booked in with the family for a couple of months.Was it worth it? Hell yeah!The premises is small(hence the booking in advance for more than 2 people) and very cosy but that adds to the charm of this restaurant.The staff are awesome ? very welcoming, very professional, efficient and very friendly. All what you need in restaurant staff.The food? Well then.. thats the best bit. HUGE portions(don't be tempted to go ott on sides) and the quality and taste is stunning. You won't be disappointed.Definitely recommended and we can't wait to go back again .10/10

A lovely little restaurant that does amazing steaks. Sides were very nice too and staff were very friendly. We knew the place was popular so booked our table well in advance.
