The Caesar Salad Bella Notte stands out with its creamy homemade dressing, crispy pancetta bits, and garlic crostini that add a delightful crunch. For a fresher, more nuanced option, Grace’s Salad charms with mixed greens, apple slices, candied walnuts, and tangy goat cheese, drizzled in a white balsamic vinaigrette that balances sweet with tart. Their Beet Salad, adorned with gorgonzola, avocado, and pumpkin seeds, offers a vibrant medley of earthy and creamy tastes.
