This is my favorite restaurant. It truly is authentic Italian cuisine. The prices are fair, the food is divine and the servers are wonderful. I have ordered almost everything off the menu and have yet to be disappointed.
We had made Bella Vita our "go-to" place for special occasions - New Years Eve dinner, Mothers Day....but was bitterly disappointed on Mothers Day. The place was crowded (evening reservations) and a family had their young child disrupting and fussing through the whole meal. It was so loud, I could barely carry on a conversation across the table to my own daughters. We had spent a lot of money on the dinner portion and had intended on making an evening of it but we cut it short because of the noise level. Other patrons were looking towards the offending table also, not just us. We felt it was management's place to have said something. Yes, it WAS Mother's Day and yes that baby's mom was probably there, but so was I and all the other mothers who were being treated to an evening out albeit an expensive one. I will call ahead next special occasion to find out if there are babies reserved for the same time frame as we are so that we do not experience the same disappointment. Any time my own babies became disruptive in a restaurant, I either socialized them to acceptable behaviour or removed them so as not to put out other restaurant goers. Especially in a higher end establishment and never in the evening.
This was our second visit and we will go for a third. The first visit was excellent, food, service et al. The second visit, well maybe they were a bit rushed, as they were closing for a private party but.... the appetizer was not delivered as requested, "no mushrooms, they had mushrooms" , and the fish stew was delivered as the special of the day - pickerel! They offered to change it "if the chef could do something quick" but I chose to stay with the pickerel. They did disount the meal so we will go back again. The fish stew was excellent and I will try to order it again. I think maybe the server was a little rushed or a maybe just not enough experience.
We had heard only great things about this restaurant, but left disappointed. We chose the specials, assuming they would be fresh and cooked to perfection. The bruschetta was presented on breakfast toast - not something I recall seeing in Italy. The halibut was dry (overcooked) and the accompanying vegetables were nothing more than ordinary. Maybe the standards are slipping. Complacency perhaps?
The food was ok,I was expecting more in way of flavor and presentation. The atmosphere really bothered me, it was very loud in there, bad acoustics. Wouldnt go here for fine dining.
