I get to the area at least once a month and make it a point to stop here if they are open. The people are great. The clams with linguini (white) is very good, it’s what I order most of the time with a side salad (some of the best home made Italian dressing I’ve had) . The dipping sauce is also great and I usually grab a jar to take home. When in the area, this is a must stop!

Everything was good except for the Lasagna! Never had it with just pasta noodles, ground hamburger, sauce and a slice of mozzarella cheese not fully melted! No ricotta cheese! We’re Italians this was the first! But it was tasty…SUGGESTION PUT LASAGNA OUR WAY, this way it suggests it’s not Italian way
Thank you will be back again no lasagna

We arrive tired to our destination. We unpacked the car and settled in. Next to set in, hunger to our bellies. We wanted to stay home but the cupboard and fridge were bare. (It’s an Airbnb after all. What did we expect?!). We looked over all the options in town. We read MANY reviews. Some closed. Some close soon. Some cash only. Italian. We love Italian. We ordered to go.
I fed a vegetarian family of 4. 2 kids and 2 adults. We ordered 2 kids cheese ravioli, cheese bread, fried mozzarella, and fettuccini Alfredo. It came with salad and bread. It took less than 15 minutes to pick up. Cost $55
Go read the bad reviews for this location. I just don’t understand how we ate at the same place. ALL of our food was flavorful and amazing. I cannot stress enough how varied the flavors were and how we ate WAY past feeling full. The dip that came with the house bread was impossible to describe but amazing. It was a slightly spicy and so so good on the crispy-on-the-outside, pillow-soft-on-the-inside house bread.
The salad was ok. It’s a starter salad. The ranch it came with was amazing. I eat way too much ranch, but this was top 5 best ones.
Next to surprise me on its impressive taste was the fried mozzarella. 2 large servings of fried mozzarella with some of the best marinara I’ve ever had. I would love to order pasta with fried mozzarella on top. Like an eggplant marinara but fried cheese. Yes please.
Cheesy bread was fantastic. Honestly, it was just a device used to eat as much of the marinara as I Could. I don’t usually gush over marinara sauce, but I couldn’t get enough of it!!
Cheese ravioli for the kids…right….the kids. I ate pretty much both of these because they decided they wanted the Alfredo. So so good. Covered in marinara. Only advice is more marinara!!
Alfredo was great. We all shared off each plate and loved it.
The store was so cute and exactly what I expected. Next time we will dine in. Staff was warm and friendly even though they close in an hour. Plenty of parking and seating.
To say we loved this meal is an understatement. If you are anywhere nearby and need to eat, come here first!!!

The best in the high peaks. We have been coming every August for five years. 2020-21 we had take-out due to COVID. This year we returned to eat in their dining room. Our waitress was so attentive & shared stories of her growing up here. The food was plentiful and really good. We highly recommend LaBella’s.

Good traditional style Italian place in Saranac Lake. Servers were all friendly and attentive, and food came out quickly. The bread and dip they provide is delicious! I really enjoyed the spaghetti and meatball/sausage and highly recommend the meat sauce as well!

First time going here and planning to return whenever we’re in town. Looking for old school Italian, we found it. Had a great meal, service and at a reasonable price. Can’t beat it. Wish we had room to try the deserts. Started with the fried mozzarella, so good. Wife had cheese ravioli and I had the chicken parmigiana. Both very good and more than we could eat.

I was recommended this restaurant by a local and I’m glad I listened! I had the shrimp scampi which came out hot, fresh, and fast! The portion was good size, and the flavor was just right. The atmosphere and service were also very good.
