  Yes, close to NY pizza - but it isn't anything like what I grew up on and ate for decades. Sorry folks - don't think this cuts it quite right. Yes, you can fold it and it is thin and not a dry cracker, but that's where it ends. Got the deluxe - maybe a pepperoni would be a better choice.
  
  We got a deal from Fox 59 - so we have another certificate to use. Maybe next time I can say something better. after I try the pepperoni........not in a rush to go back.
  
  Small alley like room - at least there were two TV sets to watch the Olympics on while we waited.

  Been here three times and each time have experienced bad customer service from the non English speaking manager Jaime I refuse to continue spending my money at a place that doesn't value great customer service

  Pizza was not heated enough and a bit soggy at the bottom. I think lots of people here haven't had much NY style pizza, because while this sort of looks the part, the execution was very far off. Maybe I just got a bad batch.

  As a native New Yorker I will attest to the authenticity of this "NY style" pizza joint.  Thin, foldable, right amount of cheese, sauce and oilyness. Toppings are fine if you are into that but beyond pepperoni or sausage which are both solid offerings here I have no opinion. Anything more and its no longer a pizza, its a salad.  They sell by the slice and if you ask for a large "pie" they don't give you a funny look. Pictures of the NY skyline, soda fountain, its the real deal inside.  I lived in Chicago for many years and never found a NY Style pizza as good as this one and I tried every one that had "NY STYLE" in the window.  Clay Terrace loc now delivers for no cost, (min $15) which is fantastic.  They used to use a delivery service which would tack on their delivery fee, which is hard to justify when just buying a pizza.  I would have considered it though because this pizza is that good, but I'm much happier now to have free delivery.  The only suggestion I could possibly make is to change the name...Joey's or Tony's would be more NY than "Bella"

  Bella's (specifically the Clay Terrace location) comes as close to NYC style pizza as I have been able to get in Indy. The crust is thin and foldable, the sauce is zippy (not sweet) and flavorful, and the cheese is just right. I always go for plain cheese...toppings mess it up for me.
  
  It's a touch pricy, but it's worth it.

  Would've been better if the cost wasn't so much.  My friend and I ended up at $13.12 for two slices of pizza and two breadsticks total.  We thought this was excessive considering we didn't even order any drinks.

  I've lived in NYC and know that style of pizza. Bella gets it hands down. If you are looking for doughy Midwest pizza. Forget it. This is the place for people who know and appreciate New York style pizza. GO!

  The pizza is great, but way to many kids with to much money to spend! That cost them a star!
  Remember to eat well and to live well! And please no chains!

  For me, Bella is alright. The service was good when I went, got my food pretty quick, and it has a nice atmosphere.
  
  My buddy always likes to come here when he's in town. Definitely worth a try if you're in the area.

  Yummy! Better than Luca's pizza, which I shamefully love! And there is something about the owner with gold chains around his neck fitting comfortably in "Clay Terrace of the Snobby" as I like to refer to it, that has a delicious irony.

  I love this tiny little pizzeria, which is really too pleasantly humble for snooty Clay Terrace. I appreciate any pizza joint that offers individual slices, and this one does. The offerings are pretty standard: cheese, pepperoni, sausage, everything, stuffed, calzones, breadsticks, etc. You won't find any "designer pizzas" here, but they do serve up a very satisfying slice of "mall pizza." You know what I'm talking about. Big, greasy, kinda thin. Yums! Another good thing about Bella is that you can wash your pizza down with beer. Ahhhh, strip mall perfection.
