Bellino Ristorante Italiano is Corpus Christi's only Italian restaurant with a strong Sicilian influence, offering authentic Sicilian and Italian cuisine crafted by Executive Chef Francesco Inguaggiato, who brings traditional family recipes from Palermo. The restaurant is renowned for its house-made breads, pastas, desserts, and pioneering the first homemade Pinsa in Texas, a Roman-style pizza with a unique almost gluten-free dough. Bellino combines imported Italian wines with local sustainable ingredients, creating a warm, inviting atmosphere reminiscent of a Mediterranean village.
