La Bella Valatie

La bella Valarie pizza is a strong contender for one of the best in the capital region. The brick oven pie is ultra thin and has a great undercarriage with little to no flop. (I'm channeling DP). They have the perfect balance of cheese and sauce to crust. I ordered the sausage pie and was so happy to see real Italian sausage not the pellet style topping. Savory and crispy. I'm a huge fan! We also had the lobster ravioli and that was great as well. The side salad was also fresh, with real shredded mozzarella on it that clearly was not from a bag. Busy place lots of staff and food is flying out the door at dinner time..

Not horrible pizza at all. It gets nostalgia points because la bella’s was always the family go-to for pizza growing up… but even with the bias it’s nothing to write home about.

Pretty good, but a little oily. Flavor isn’t bad, but nothing special. Bland is what comes to mind

Bland, literally no seasoning, there are long strings of spinach that are soggy and you can chew forever. Very salty so you can only eat at most half and feel sick after. The only other local pizza shop around otherwise they wouldn’t stay in business. Second time ordering here from about 9 months ago because maybe it was a fluke. Nope. Not ordering here again.

Crispy, good sauce.. WAY TOO GREASY. Don’t go out of your way but a decent hometown slice

Brick Oven but it didn’t look Brick Oven, nonetheless the pie was very good. Great blend of sauces with little zest Crunchy crust Crisp bottom VERY LITTLE “tip flop” Excellent cheese flavor

Greasy, floppy, sauce tastes like ragu jar. Not good. Better options nearby. Pepperoni slice even worse.

My go to in Columbia County. When it’s crisp it’s closer to an 8. Very good pizza. Great sauce, good crust. Very good flavor. Just go.
