Sedona, AZ — Behind every unforgettable meal is a chef with a story, and we’re proud to introduce the heart and soul behind BV’s Italian Restaurant in Cottonwood and Bella’s Italian Restaurant in Sedona.
Executive Chef and Manager David Moraga brings a lifetime of passion, tradition, and experience to every dish that leaves the kitchen. Many of you may already know David as the former owner of the beloved Sutlers Steakhouse, where he built a reputation for exceptional food and genuine hospitality.
David’s culinary journey began as a child, learning alongside his parents in their family restaurants. Those early years sparked a lifelong passion that continues today. His philosophy is simple: great food starts from scratch and is made with love.
From our fresh handmade pasta and scratch-made sauces to every carefully crafted entrée, each meal reflects David’s dedication to authentic Italian cuisine and quality ingredients.
