Bella Vita is a hidden gem. Enjoyable dinner, excellent service, and an atmosphere full of loyal regular customers all having a great time. I started with the beef tenderloin carpaccio with cappers, ground mustard (this really added to the dish), and parmesan. Very good, although the shredded lettuce was not necessary. Next, a side dinner salad with house dressing, actually very good, just the right amount of dressing. My main course was their Pasta Casalinga, sautéed chicken, olives, tomatoes, garlic, and parmesan. Very good flavor, but unfortunately, they overcooked the pasta with very little chicken. Family owned, open from May to October. I will definitely come back for another dinner. Don't be fooled by the dirt/stone parking lot, It is worth the visit.

We had been there once before for our anniversary and wanted a repeat since the food was great. Fast forward 5 years: the prices are now very high and customer service was nonexistant. We had reservations and when we arrived were seated in the bar area. We asked to be seated somewhere besides the bar area but were told they couldn't do that. REALLY? The restaurant was not nearly full, 1/4 at best and it was fairly early. So...we left, will not be back. Went to a cozy pub, had great food AND service. They graciously moved us from the patio because it was chilly. We WILL go back there. FYI, In response to the owner's assertion that we were offered 3 other tables...no, that did NOT happen. We were only told we couldn't be moved. Had my husband, in fact, been offered something else, he would have asked which tables in order to make a decision. When he asked if the only choice was the bar he was told yes. Hmm. We DO, of course, respect and honor others' reservations.

Food and service were excellent. Definitely looking forward to coming again. The decor in the building could use an upgrade. Just dated.

Very nice dinner. From starters to desert it was good. Staff was nice. The exterior is nothing to write home about. The interior is better. But the food itself is great.

Very attentive and helpful waitress who let me try multiple wine samples to find the best match for my meal. Mushroom risotto was delicious.
