If you’re looking for a seat at Bella Piatti, a high-end Italian restaurant in downtown Birmingham, it’s best to call and make a reservation. The owner, Nino Cutraro, spoke with us about his popular eatery, which often hosts celebrities like Mark Wahlberg, Stanley Tucci and many more. Here you can enjoy authentic Italian dishes like calamari, orecchiette con rapini, tagliatelle bolognese and more, plus weekly specials. You could also take your chances for a prime seat at the bar or on the new outdoor patio, both first come, first served.
