Fantastic old world Italian food! Service is outstanding and food cooked to perfection! I visited Bella Vita for over 10 years now and always enjoyed many different meals.
Bella Vita is a wonderful place to take the entire family for one of the best meals you have ever had.
Service is fast and friendly and Angie and MaryAnn are the best!

Service is extremely slow. Ridiculously slow. Whatever you're thinking, it's slower than that. You could sit for 30 minutes before anyone even comes over to the table. Slow to take your order, slow to bring the salads, slow to clear the salads, 50 minutes later the entree comes, no one checks to see how everything is, no one checks to see if you need more drinks, slow to clear. The Italian food is good. The steak is horrific. It always arrived well done and cold no matter how we order it. Any complaints or questions are always met with attitude. Despite not being impressed, this place is close to us, and the pasta dishes are good, so we dined there sometimes over a 5 year period. Final straw was booking a special event there. We thought since we'd been very steady customers they may treat us well. Sadly, it was the exact opposite. Service was so bad it was embarrassing. We were shoved downstairs and forgotten about. We apologized to our guests all night long. Never again.

We have been eating at Bella Vita for many years now and have always had a great meal.
The service is what we love the most. The people are very friendly and like Cheers, they make you feel like a welcome friend.
I simply sit down and the great staff normally will have my favorite drinks brought to my table without any conversation needed.
If this is the type of place you are looking to spend your hard earned money.... check them out!

Excellent house salad dressing and pasta is prepared to
perfection. Extremely slow service, even when few diners present.
If you have an appointment or reservations after dinner best
cancel them and go there for lunch. Portions are very tiny and
not a good value in relation to cost. Skip the cappuccino by all
means. While bread may be restaurant baked a warmed soft Italian
or French bread from a bakery would be better. Menu states "Ask
if you don't see it." Asked the waiter for a cold antipasto
platter appetizer for two and was told "No." I have never dined
in an Italian restaurant that didn't offer a cold antipasto
platter. We will not be returning.
