It is now four months after our first visit. The outside temperature is 80 degrees and the indoor temperature is delightful. Amazing how much easier it is on the HVAC when it is 50 degrees warmer!<br/ <br/ BTW on our first visit I guess I failed to mention that a goodly portion of the surrounding areas were still without power due to the ice storms. Back then these folks still managed to produce some really hot and tasty food!<br/ <br/ This Visit<br/ <br/ The food is still great. And the plants, fountain, and decor all work together to give the impression of being outdoors on a patio or somesuch.<br/ <br/ This time I had the Avgolemono soup and Chicken Fetuccine Alfredo.<br/ <br/ The soup is a traditional Greek rice soup thickened with egg and lemon. Quite interesting and tasty. It comes with two pieces of Brushetta that were equally good.<br/ <br/ The Chicken Fetuccine Alfredo was some of the best I have ever tasted. Seems it has a sauce that is based more on cheese than cream which makes it extremely tasty. Well done!<br/ <br/ <br/ <br/ Four Months Earlier<br/ <br/ Ok, the food is really good.<br/ And the place was freezing. Albeit it was 30 degrees outside, but I doubt it got above 55 inside where we were sitting. No we were NOT anywhere near the door. I was in a thick hooded sweat shirt and was still cold. I kept thinking that mittens were in order. Every diner, to a person, was bundled up in winter coats and scarves. We're talking 7pm on Saturday evening so they had been open for many hours.<br/ <br/ First thing I ordered was a bowl of the Lentil Soup. It came out quickly, and very hot, in a large bowl. Life was instantly better although holding the ice cold spoon was a bit of a distraction (later to be accompanied by cameos by the ice cold fork and butter knife).<br/ <br/ The Lentil Soup had a nice consistency and unlike many lentil soup variants I have had, seemed to have a tomato base with onions and garlic. A nice dish which reminded me just a bit of the flavor of pork beans although obviously neither of those ingredients were present. Certainly tasty and unique ... and did I mention HOT!<br/ <br/ Ordered the Bella Vista pizza. Their small was way more than I needed even if I had not consumed the bowl of soup. The short story is lots of ingredients, seemingly fresh and well prepared.<br/ <br/ We also got the Lasagna. Huge portion with meat, cheese, pasta, and sauce. Warm and tasty.<br/ <br/ So the food is great but you might want to slip into your woolen undies on colder days when you plan to eat here.<br/ <br/ Note: on the way out we encountered an enclave of warmer tables around the fountain. I wonder if the issue might be attributed to a lack of insulation in the outside walls. You might want to try to be seated near the fountain!
This restaurant is probably the best Italian food that I have ever had in my life of existence. The restaurant is in sketchy location, if they had another restaurant in a better location, this place would boom in business.<br/ The portions are enormous for a fraction of the cost (seriously, you can probably feed two people with one plate of pasta for such an inexpensive cost). You get way too much food for a little amount of price. The appetizers are delicious, I would recommend the garlic bread with cheese, literally the best I've ever had. I can't even single off a dish that isn't as equally good as the other ones. Just kidding, personally, start off with garlic bread and cheese, for an entree, order the Chicken Alla Parmigiano or their famous Lasagna! The Italian Cream cake is a MUST try if you still have room in your belly! The pictures posted below, we ended up paying only $24.38 for all of the food we got! <br/ <br/ NOTE: If you are ordering pizza, beware the portions are enormous and you will most likely in need of a box to take-home the left overs. The restaurant also caters to large parties. <br/ <br/ I would recommend this place to anyone. I usually came here with large group of friends to have a great time. The servers are somewhat attentive and the services is a little slow, but literally the food will blow your mind. Sadly, the place closes from June 26th until September 1st because the family is going home to Italy for the summer.<br/ <br/ Brandon Pham
Awesome every time we go. Great service, and the food blows the chain restaurants away.
There's a bit of a wait, but the service is excellent. Both the waitress and host checked on our table frequently and kept our drinks full. The food was incredible. Definitely the best Italian food I've ever had, and they have big portions. I recommend Bella Vista over any standard Italian restaurant such as Olive Garden or Zio's.
