Saying it out of all the times I have been here myself, Bella Rossa is not a cafe you would want to miss. Everything is cute and feminine-like, but not in a pink-slapped kind of way. The place is huge, so there is always a chance of getting a table. The best part is that the food is as amazing as the decor. Never (with all seriousness) skip out on their delicious cocktails.

Old-school charm mixed with contemporary coolness is what 736 AD is all about.
