VIta Bella Ristorante Italiano

We dined here tonight and really enjoyed it. Staff was friendly and food was delicious! We had the bruschetta, Calabrian Pasta, Beef Short Rib Ragu Pappardelle, and the kids Chicken Cutlets. For dessert we had the Volcano Cake. All very tasty! We'll definitely be returning.

Great atmosphere.
The food is amazing.
Our waitress was so nice and personable.

The food here is absolutely amazing! My husband and I came for a date night and enjoyed a few appetizers, salads, two pasta dishes, and some wine. We haven’t stopped talking about it or craving it since! The interior could use a little updating, but that’s easy to overlook when the food is this delicious.

Our server was fine—she got the job done, but it was clear she wasn’t thrilled to be there. We mentioned we’d be staying a while and planned to indulge since it was a rare night out without our toddler and infant. Unfortunately, she didn’t seem too excited. I get it, though—I’ve been a server before, and it’s not always the most enjoyable job. Still, faking enthusiasm is part of it.

Overall, the incredible food more than made up for the service. We’ll definitely be back very soon!

Very small restaurant with a very limited menu. I did not enjoy eating next to strangers. I will unfortunately not be back.

Left after the appetizer. When it first opened it was amazing. Tonight the Bella Napoli was cold and lacking of toppings…. I come back and try things here from time to time and it’s just not been good. I’d recommend Ds smokehouse across the street where I’m writing this review.

Foods good… if you’re ok with paying $40 for 4 raviolis… server was very knowledgeable and well spoken. pretty crammed space.

Horrible experience here tonight. Ordered the Pesto Pasta with Chicken. The pasta was super dry, and the chicken was like cardboard. I asked for a new dish and the waitress said no problem. 15 minutes later with no communication from the waitress and everyone in my party done eating i said I didn't need the pasta anymore. Not only did the pasta still not show up when the check arrived but the re-ordered pasta was on the bill.

My husband and I wanted a nice evening out and maybe a glass of wine. Vita Bella has great food and a fair wine selection. I called Vita Bella to check to be sure they were open as we work a bit later so we get out a bit later. The phone went to voice message and directs the patron to their website. The website says that Vita Bella is open until 9:00pm. I had called at 7:42, online says they're open, arrived at 8:10, kitchen closes at 8:30 so were good. We arrived at 8:10, only to find the doors locked. I then called again when we were still in the parking lot to inquire what was happening because we did drive a bit to get there. Someone answered this time and I was told there had not been customers there for the last hour, so they closed early. This is fine, I get it. The thing is that I called ahead of time. Patrons need to be informed somehow via phone message or online that they were closing early or at the very least answer the phone. In my opinion, it's bad public relations to unexpectedly close early. Mind you I called less than a half hour prior to arriving and upon finding the doors locked, called again and being told no one had been there for an hour. The worst part is that in fact, this is the 2nd time this has happened to us and it is frustrating and disappointing because we were really looking forward to being there. I'm not sure when or if we will be returning. Consistency within a business is so important.

Highly recommend!
Mussels are best we've had!
(We ate those before pic taken)
Crab ravioli, Pollo gnocchi with chicken breast(perfectly cooked, moist)topped with bacon, deep fried brussel sprouts! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Clean, slow paced restaurant. Eat and enjoy! Coming back again to try the meatball burger and lasagna. Melissa was an awesome waitress! ?

Really, really amazing food. The menu changes (which is both good and bad as sometimes your favorites are gone)... The only ding at all is that it is on the spendy side (with smaller portions) and you have to order bread (which I am okay with I guess, but it just isn't any good). I saddened to be basically breadless with pasta...

The Tiramisu is to die for!!!
