BellaVista - Stockton

My mother’s birthday was a success at Bella Vista !. She’s not a big fan of Italian food but she had a bite of chicken Alfredo and was in loved ! The food was yummy and seasoned to perfection. Not so bad for our first visit here : .

The service is terrible the first time I went in December and it is still terrible. They forgot our cocktails, we waited 30 minutes before they were delivered after we reminded the waitress. There was no one at the bar to work the bar. They were no busy, hardly anyone in the restaurant. They brought our entrees before we finished our salads, so the entrees got cold sitting on the side. My friend and I were sat by the exit door, when there were plenty of seats to choose from. The food is good, but I can get it to go, because the service is terrible.

What a deal! Thursday night is all you can eat pasta night for $9.99 which also includes delicious focaccia bread and a nice salad. Service was excellent and pasta was delicious. Restaurant is lovely and quiet enough to actually have a conversation with friends. We brought an out of town friend and were very pleased that we chose Bellavista.

Maybe the best Italian in the entire valley. One would have to travel to San Francisco to try to get a better meal.

Terrible food and watered down drinks. This is Italian that tastes like it came from a school cafeteria. Don’t waste your money.
