Bella Cibo Pasta House - West Kelowna

Went to Hot Joy because I was CRAVING fried chicken and heard lots about this place from a few friends.

Paid for our drinks and left prior to ordering foodWaiter was nice enough, but the vibe just wasn't there__Ordered cocktails upon arriving.

I feel because San Antonio has such a small amount of Asians living here (a staggering amount of 2.4% according to the 2010 census,) something like Hot Joy

Starts off with good service and ends with great food . Here the food speaks for its self I don't think anyone will be disappointed .

My wife suggested Bella Cibo (good food) in West Kelowna, for something to try. Small, quaint it's located in a non descript strip mall. A pleasant greeting and short wait for our table as it was full when we arrived. It's an open dining area of 10 or so tables looking directly into the kitchen. The 'best in town' Caesar salad was good, not over dressed and topped with large parmesan shavings. Enjoyed a ½ litre of the house Cab Sauv (Peeler Est) with my meal. I had the Vodka pasta sauce over angel hair with Italian sausage & meat balls while my wife enjoyed penne with Alfredo (vegetarian w/veggie stock sauce base) sauteed with peppers, onions and carrots.Taking some home so we could sample the trio dessert which was a nice cap to dinner.Friendly staff & owner, simple decor and the flavors were OK. I'd go again if in the area but it wasn't outstanding enough to plan a second, special trip. I'd recommend it, but there are a few other small places in the area with as good or slightly more memorable favor to the main course and sauce.
