I have had Bella Fresco on my bookmarks for a while and finally decided to stop in tonight to try falafel and gelato (not together) for the first time tonight.\n\nLocated at the back of the Arboretum (past Chili's and right next to Qdoba).  Big, lovely signage let me know I was in the right place.  The parking lot at the Arbo sucks - the lines aren't clearly marked anymore, pot holes, speed bumps, oddly configured, etc., but there is plenty of parking.\n\nI was instantly greeted upon walking in by who I am guessing is an owner.  He told me to pick a table and left me with a menu as my waitress was already walking up to take my drink order.  Shortly after I placed my order.\n\nThe food:\nFalafel ($5) - I have never had falafel before, but from what I have read, this was exactly it.  6 balls, about the size of golf balls, of deep fried chick pea mash with spices and I believe I saw onions.  It was quite spicy, but the thick tzatziki that they served with it was cooling and amazing.  I wouldn't order it that way again, but it was tasty enough.  \nPhilosophy pita ($6) - Lettuce, Philly steak grilled with green peppers, mushrooms, onions, provolone and mayo.  I guess Showmar's has led me astray as to what a pita is, because this order was more like a wrap (thinner than a pita, thicker and sturdier than a tortilla).  It was served more like a wrap, but I did very much enjoy it.  There was a lot of lettuce (not a complaint) and the warm flavors in the wrap were good.  I ordered the potato salad with this and it was a yellow potato salad, so I was expecting a mustard taste, but it was sweet and very mild.  About the consistency of grocery store potato salad, but good.  \n\nMy waitress was super friendly and pretty efficient considering she was the only waitress waiting on everyone (most tables were families with kids).\n\nOn to the highlight of the evening - the gelato... holy smokes.  Creamy, yummy goodness.  The owner (extremely helpful, very personable) was manning the gelato bar when I was trying to decide and he volunteered NUMEROUS sample spoons of different flavors - hazelnut, salted caramel, pistachio, birthday cake, chocolate, I think one was called Turkish Delight, coconut, vanilla, I think there was a mocha or cappuccino - SO many flavors, it was incredible really - and each taste was just as delicious or more delicious than the one before.  I finally decided on a small cup ($3.84) of the biscotti flavor and it was heavenly.  A small cup was plenty too - it was so rich.  I was excited to see they had a Sugar Free Chocolate, so I will be hauling the parents over to try that after some lunch.\n\nThe meal was good, everything on the menu seemed to be very fair/reasonably priced as far as the food goes and I will definitely be back for more.
