   The price fixe menu for lunch offered a lot of variety at a good price. We had chicken piccata and the salmon along with the stuffed mushrooms and wedge salad. All were very good. The restaurant is intimate with a beautiful view of the lake. I would recommend Bella Vie and will be going again.

   The owner was very pleasant and upbeat. The food was mediocre for the price. The ravioli were very undercooked. The chicken cutlet was like a brick. The gnocchi tasted stale. The noise level from the two person band was over the top. I was expecting a classier atmosphere and more sophisticated food. On a more positive note, they didn't rush you out. I think the restaurant has potential to be a gem. More attention to the food is needed. They offered us a 20% discount off our next meal, but we will not be returning.

    Not enough staff for the number of diners during restaurant week. The romm we were seated in, adjacent to the bar, is cozy, until it filled with diners and got noisy. We would go back in the summer to dine on the patio overlooking the bay.

    Three of us went for a birthday celebration and took advantage of the prix fixe menu. We loved the rice balls but all agreed the stuffed mushrooms were fantastic. For entrees we had the salmon which was moist and nicely seasoned and the short ribs which were properly tender. We all enjoyed tiramisu for desert. It was delicious but I prefer it prepared the old fashioned way where everything is thrown into a bowl rather than as a neatly prepared cake. The service was excellent and the owner took the time to visit our table and answer questions about the history of the restaurant. We were all first timers at Bella Vie and agreed that we would return.

    Great food, service could have been a little better. I expect my drink to be refilled before or at the time of dropping the entree especially when the empty glass is sitting right on the edge of the table. Also stingy with the bread, didn't offer any bread when we sat down but saw other tables receive it. Why not ask us?

    We had Carlos, who was excellent. Wedge salad was good, but chicken Sorrentino was not especially good. The salty Marsala sauce overpowered the dish. I couldn’t eat more than a few bites.

    The view is beautiful. The house salad was good. The chicken parm sandwich was inedible. Burnt sauce, just awful, I’ve had it in the past when it was good. It was dreadful. My friend said the salmon was ok. Very disappointed.

    We chose this spot based on location and reviews and it did not disappoint! Amazing dinner with wonderful service from Carlos. Appetizers were wonderful as were our main courses and dessert. Great recommendation for wine too. We were passing through the area but will absolutely return when we go back to Long Island.

    Food was Terrific!!. Our Adviser was top notch ,easy to understand and had a firm grasp of specials and how they were prepared in addition to be extremely knowledgeable about the regular menu. Another Advisor assisted us with our wine and pairings. The view over the pond and into the surrounding wet lands was spectacular. Only regret that it was to humid to dine al fresco!
