Bellavia....occupying the space in the Merle Saver Building, which was once a TV. repair
shop, pizza parlor, a Chicken Delight and a sub shop. Ed and Brandy worked hard to remodel
and transform their odd shaped space into a workable restaurant.Years have passed and
Flagstaff has about 250 places to eat, but La Bellavia still keeps trying to serve the
best food around from its uniquely shaped space and historic south-side location.Brandy
later expanded the business to include catering. There wasn't a party she couldn't add her
innovative touches to. Her wedding cakes were out of this world...just ask any who's had
one, she hasn't catered for over fifteen years and they still receive phone calls
requesting wedding cakes! But, in 1993, when the opportunity arose to open a second
restaurant, Brandy chose to devote her efforts full-time to the new location, thus ending
her twelve-year catering career.
