Classic Italian dinning and Wine Spectator award winner since 1999 Bellisio’s restaurant conjures up images of highly skilled chefs, fine wines, superb service, and fresh Italian food. And while all this is most certainly true, one must not forget that Bellisio’s is above all an experience. An exceptional dining experience, to be precise, but one that takes place in a casual atmosphere reminiscent of the quaint eateries and wine bars of the Italian countryside. And no wonder. The experience is fashioned after the small village of Bellisio, Italy, home to the owner’s ancestry. Imported direct from Italy are the beauty, comfort, romance, and glorious recipes. Specialty dishes include perfectly prepared pasta dishes using the finest imported and local ingredients; fennel roasted rack of pork; homemade risotto dishes; grilled steaks; shrimp; seafood; and a fresh catch feature every day. All served with a world class wine menu to match. Bellisio’s has received Wine Spectator’s prestigious “Best of Award of Excellence” every year since we opened in 1999. It’s a simple, colorful, elegant, and exceptional dining experience.

We offered to buy dinner for friends who live in Duluth. They told us Bellisio's is the best in town and is their favorite. Then they said they felt guilty letting us buy because it would cost too...

Top shelf service and quiet, Italian low light date night vibe for sure. We thoroughly enjoyed the bruschetta; a must try. The roasted garlic butter drips off the toast and the blend of tomatoes...

Extensive wine selection. I really like Lobster and Shrimp Linguini. Creamy rich sauce with plenty of lobster bites. Shrimp is ok. We ordered a little too much. Calamari App comes with salads...
