Had a great experience! It’s cozy! The service was top notch. They are genuinely proud of what they do and attentive. Every seasoning, every texture, every dish was amazing! A gem! Don’t be in a hurry because each item is prepared for you—-no giant vat of this or that, so just sit back and enjoy.

We have gone here for special occasions for years. My parents are gone now, so my Sister and I shared our February birthdays there with dinner. Nostalgic to be sure and the same amount of care and good food as was rembered.

The Bella Vista is our go to restaurant for family celebrations and visiting friends. Friendly people (Hi Cindy!), great service, don't expect fast food, but there's roasted peppers and soft bread to tide you over. The drinks are prompt and well mixed. The dinner is so very worth the wait. I've skipped around the menu quite a bit and it is always delicious!

Our friend invited us to this restaurant in Little Falls, NY.The service was outstanding!The food was so delicious!!I am a vegetarian. I ordered Hats and Broccoli. I also wanted to add mushrooms and red peppers. They gladly added them to my meal.My friend had Grilled Chicken and my husband had Short Rib Ravioli. They enjoyed them very much!!We also had a delicious dessert and espresso coffee.We were told that the chef (Guy Vespi graduated from Johnson and Wales. So, if you go there, you will have high quality food.The Place is also Snowmobile accessible. That's another plus.They also have outdoor seating. The area is beautiful!We will definitely be back soon!Here are some pictures!
The food is incredible, the service is fantastic and the prices are fair..... Wonderful experience all around!

Random chance brought us here -- glad it did. Excellent food, slow Thursday evening. Cindy, co-owner, very personable. Full Bar -- alas we three abstaining.I had Chicken Pastina Soup; it was delicate & hearty at same time, well balanced & separate flavors. Chicken; texture was good & still had flavor. Meatballs; spicy bites, complimented perfectly.House green salad; fresh, crisp, house made dressings - I had raspberry vinaigrette, sweet to calamata olives salt, wonderful combination.Bow ties pasta; pasta perfect texture & not rinsed to blandness. Sauce adhered nicely - a little spicy heat. I only had a taste, my friend cleaned his plate ?Haddock special; cooked perfectly, fish flaked nicely. I did not taste & brother did not talk, just ate. At end said he felt was eating at fancy restaurant (food exceeded quaint atmosphere & price).Baked chicken, stuffed w/shrimp, florentine special (think cordon bleu). A taste combination I had to try -- wow did it go well. Cream sauce* & crispy crusting. I was eating too fast... flavors, textures/mouth feel -- sooo good. Forced myself to slow down & saved some for later. (*asked about interesting spice flavor... Do Not ask recipe owner to give up trade secrets ???)Had side of potatoes - will try marinara pasta next time.No desert tonight.Roasted peppers & bread -- olive oil & garlic & finely grated parmigiano reggiano (I'm guessing) with house baked crusty bread... just to die for... Cindy said took awhile to catch on, I'm not sure why, seemed perfect combination & beautiful to look at. Anyway, our group understood & enjoyed. Sweet of pepper, garlic, oil, salty from cheese -- how not to love combination... Layered on bread & also dipped traditional way. Oil was excellent on its own.We just happened upon Bella Vista, actually drove past & turned around. Sooo glad we did. Once in a lifetime --Dietary restrictions: Food cooked to order.
