While our love for Indian food always remains, Italian food could comfortably occupy the top spot too. From burrata salads to wholesome wood-fired pizzas, and handmade pastas to scrumptious desserts – there is so much that Italian cuisine has to offer. If you are looking for a new Italian restaurant to add to your list of the most visited places in Delhi, we have just what you need. L’Osteria Bella in Holiday Inn, Aerocity is treating us to some authentic Italian food without even venturing out of the city. It is, in fact, one of the first and only authentic Italian restaurants in the Aerocity area.

Located at the lobby level at Holiday Inn with a capacity to accommodate over 100 guests, L’Osteria Bella presents the authentic flavours of Italy. The restaurant spans two levels and boasts of two private dining rooms, an interactive open kitchen counter, and a chic bar. Its decor is a fusion of bold and inviting colours, Italian Pop art, and trendy memorabilia, creating a visually captivating ambiance.

Recently, L’Osteria Bella launched a new summer menu at an exclusive media event. The focus was on combining sustainable ingredients and making them truly delectable. Executive chef Sumit Sabharwal and Chef de Cuisine Manoj Pandey have done a fabulous job at curating an eight-course gastronomic adventure.

Dishes such as the Barley-based Bio Farm Salad, Zuppa di Pepperoni Duo, and Zuppa Di Pesce drew unanimous praise, while the Lobster dish showcased remarkable freshness. The introduction of Charcoal-based pizzas, including a signature creation, added a unique touch to the dining experience. The evening concluded on a high note with the indulgent Panna Cotta paired with red wine-infused pears.
