2008-09-29 11:49:10   We went with a group of friends. Most of us are not coming back. Bad points - Overpriced for mediocre pasta dishes, overpriced in general. Bad service and on top of that 20% gratuity added as we were more than 8 people. We got our own bottle of wine but the corking charges were $15, as now they have a liquor license. Good points - Good pizza and good desserts (again overpriced). —TanushreeArdis

2008-10-28 10:23:30   I no longer frequent this place because of the prices and the new corkage fee of $20. If they are charging that high for a cork fee, they should at least offer a better wine/beer selection. The person above says the corkage fee is $15 but I was told $20. —KimBee

My girlfriend had an eggplant panini which was great and I had an incredible basil pizza with wheat crust from the wood burning oven. I'll be making return trips! —GeorgeBluth

2009-01-03 16:41:01   Had dinner here last night and really enjoyed our meal. My partner and I had soup, salad, the gamberoni pizza (while good, it appeared to have ONE shrimp chopped up into tiny pieces on the whole pie), and the scallop risotto special (delicious). We'll definitely be back. I found the prices to be quite acceptable, especially for the quantity of food you get! —MarcVera

We ordered one pizza, and they messed up, and we got two. The waitress was embarrassed, the owner took charge and made the pizza and dessert on the house. That's the kind of mistake I like. —ZachSmalt

2009-05-13 02:39:19   I am a very picky person and was very hesitant in trying this new place. However, i would say that my visit to La Bella Vita was great. Service was friendly, atmosphere is nice and cozy, food was great (i had chicken parm and my date had a pizza), price is normal. I will definitely go back to this place again and do recommend people to give it a try. They do have outside seating and the next time i visit the restaurant, i would like to sit outside. I think because of the wood burning oven, the inside of the restaurant was very hot and at first i felt uncomfortable because of the heat; it would great during winter time though :) One other thing that drew my attention was that, some of the tables were too close to one another, didn't like that and it seems that they don't have a website, which is surprising at this day in age. —DennisPtak

2009-09-23 10:06:47   My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed this restaurant We had their special appetizer: chicken wings with a honey/balsamic dressing; they were probably the best chicken wings we've ever had. I had the chicken parm, and the sauce was delicious. My husband ordered the ravioli with Fra Diavolo sauce (spicy). He said this was the first place that he's actually noticed that the sauce was spicier than the regular sauce. The service was friendly, attentive and professional, and the restaurant was very clean. We have already recommended it and will return. —LaurenRogers
