La Bella Vita Italiano

What a great place for a small intimate wedding reception! We thank Eric for the manager and our waiter Nicky. The evening went without a torch and we planned this event from the center of Iowa, 750 miles away! The food was delicious. I loved the Chicken Marsala and the Lasagne was the best I ever had. And don't go without a Limoncello. Thank you.

Phenomena! From food to service... we celebrated Mother's Day tonight and had a wonderful evening together. From the moment we went in the door, we treated an excellent service. Jennifer was knowledgeable and had great suggestions when we asked what her favorites were. Free house bread oil/balsame vinegar with herbs was great. Water glasses were kept full. Attention. We started with bruschetta the Burrata alla Bella Vita. Delicious combination of flavors! For salad selection we ordered 2 Insalata Cesare 2 Insalata Primavera (candied walnuts were delicious). For entrees- Melanzane alla Parmigiana(Eggplantat was tender with many wonderful tomato sauce cheese, fatty succinne Alla Vodka con Gamberi,(shrimp cooked perfectly, the sauce Linguini loved all Vongole(heaven! , and Scaloppine di Pollo Marsala(Hähnchen was zart marsala Sauce was excellent). Everyone had wine with our dinner. We finished our beautiful evening, but share some fabulous Tiramisu Crème Brûlée. Everything was delicious. I think parts were right! The cook went to the culinary school in Italy, from the presentation to the flavors you can see that he is proud of his work. I would recommend this place for a delicious culinary experience. We're coming back!

Our first evening in La Bella Vita felt like we visited Italy again. Exquisites food with not a single complaint. Excellent customer services that were attentive and friendly. We will return and excite a place like this in our city and in our state.

Hands down one of the best; if not the best Italian joints in the city. Most other places where I would call the competition have certain things about them that they are specialized in. Where La Bella Vita specializes in everything they serve. You don't get a great meal and then have something else missing, it's an all-encompassing experience worth seeing again. My only problem is the location, the place is not easy to find, and then it always looks like there is no parking in front because the parking lot is behind the building. But don't stop, this place rocks! We'll go back to Mother's Day. Thanks La Bella Vita for what you do.

This is a gem! Wonderful service, food, and a great ambiance that's good for dressing G up or rolling in w/ jeans on and the kids.
