history

Our Owners, Chef, and Staff:

Here at bella, we are a huge family. From the top of the hill down to the bottom, our kitchen staff remained the same. 

Jeff and Sandy Rook have operated and owned Bella Frutteto since 2008, and continue to work along side the staff daily. 

Kale (Chip) Elliott is our head chef and the man behind so many of your favorite specials. He's been in command of the kitchen since 2020 and has brought so much talent and new touches for bella's menu.

Our kitchen staff remains tight-knit and includes long time bella employees and we all are so excited to continue to serve your favorites!

About us

Left to Right: Chip, Eric, Jeff, and Otis

Opened in the Summer of 2008, Bella Frutteto is a privately owned and operated restaurant by husband and wife Jeff and Sandy Rook. Serving modern and traditional Italian cuisine we try to incorporate the apple theme into many of our menu items. Don't worry if apples aren't for you, we offer something for everyone, from salads, pastas, seafood, steaks and more. Because we make most of our dishes from scratch, we do our best to cater to your individual dietary needs as well. 

Fast forward through a pandemic and a battle with breast cancer and here we are in late 2022, right beside of Soergel's. With the rising costs of operating a business in a rental space, we've decided to branch off and work with our patrons as their new favorite take out and catering. Continue on our journey with your favorite Bella dishes and advanced quality of food. 

Now an even better view of the orchard across the street, our namesake will never disappoint. Excited for what's to come and so grateful for what was. Thank you all for your continued support.
