"We saw their ad in the LA Town Crier for a great deal of $50 for two (appetizer, soup or salad, entree, dessert plus no corkage fee). However the included special menu was VERY limited and they were out of the only fish offered. We ended up ordering from the regular menu at a higher price but we did have a good dinner."

"I want to go back! The food was soooo delicious. The ambiance was visually interesting and restful and cozy. Many booths available. It does have a full-bar...which was not apparent to me when I viewed the website. I love this place. The staff is attentive and friendly. I want to try many of their entres and I have already spread the word to my friends. Nice variety on the menu too: pastas/steak/nice salads. I ordered the rib-eye steak: it was cut thin and it melted in your mouth. I felt like I was in a country-side Tuscan villa...the inside decor suggests that. This is a definite Go! and a "keeper" too."

"I booked after looking it up online as I am from San Jose. When we arrived, from the outside, it looked like a little hole in the wall. Inside, it is very quaint and truly a little gem of a restaurant. The food was delicious!! I will definitely be back. Great place to meet friends and family while trying to find a "halfway" point."

"i coordinated an anniversary event for a group of twelve from our congregation. our group has been together for 20 years and we wanted a special place to celebrate. the staff at bella vita was very accommodating and didn't mind we showed our 10th anniversary video as part of our celebration. and they did not automatically add their tip to the price even though our group was so big. the food, too, was delicious."
