about
At Bella Italia , we believe that great food is more than just a meal—it’s a tradition, a connection, and a way to bring people together. Our family’s roots trace back to Southern Italy, Naples , where the love for authentic Italian cuisine runs deep.
Originally from just west of Boston, Massachusetts, our founder Tony Roncarati, along with his wife Deborah, brought their shared passion to Hilton Head Island, building Bella Italia from the ground up. For the past 35 years , we have proudly served this incredible community, offering more than just delicious food—we’ve created a place where family, friends, and neighbors come together.
Our restaurant isn’t just about pizza (though we take great pride in every slice). It’s about sharing authentic family recipes, passed down for generations, and bringing a taste of Italy to every table. Tony’s been in the restaurant business for over 50 years, ensuring that each dish is made fresh daily with high-quality ingredients and a commitment to tradition.
As a family-owned and operated restaurant, community is at the heart of everything we do. From supporting local events to welcoming generations of families through our doors, Bella Italia is more than just a place to eat—it’s a part of Hilton Head’s story.
Thank you for being a part of our journey.
Whether you’re here for a quick bite, a family gathering, or just to say hello, we’re honored to serve you.
