Grandma even shared some delicious steak with us! They just don’t make bars the same way anymore. Thanks for the nice night, I’ll be back for sure!A & B”

“Are here for dinner and lunch a few times while staying at the resort. The salmon I had for dinner dinner one evening was cooked perfectly medium rare. Delicious. For lunch, we had pizza each time we ate there paired with salads. The pizza at this restaurant is the best I've ever had. It is thin crust and has the perfect blend of cheese and sauce. So light and delicious, it's hard to stop eating it. The service is also top notch, very professional but friendly. Highly recommend for lunch or dinner.”

“Don’t be fooled by this small near poolside eatery—it’s a great spot if you’re looking for something different from the usual pool menu. Their wings and fried shrimp were delicious, and the prices are quite reasonable.

We also noticed a few visitors from outside the resort wandering the property, and this seems to be the place they choose for lunch.”

“2/3/2024 the hubby and i went to the restaurant for the first time, very nice greeting,chose our table, beer and a cup of coffee was the beverages. coffee cup needed to be bigger. we order mozzarella sticks, I had a salad, it was OK. hubby had the French onion soup, and a ham sandwich, the soup had to much sherry in it, tasted very vinegary.he said sandwich was awesome. my chicken fettuccine Alfredo was awesome. the owner/waitress never came to ask us how our food was. I am very picking on the service and food.”

“We visited La Bella Vita with a party of 6 to celebrate a birthday in late October. At that time, it was one of the few fine dining restaurants in the area that was still open.

Stepping into the restaurant felt like stepping back in time to the Victorian era, with the decor, clientele, and staff all contributing to what it must have been like in that time period, you’ll see what I mean should you ever visit.

For dinner, our table started with, grilled octopus, lobster and shrimp scampi, and Sardinia style clams which were all tasty, with the clams being a bit spicy which I liked.

For our entrees we had lobster ravioli, the pappardelle short rib, chicken piccata, clams and shrimp, veal chops, all of which we liked. Only the clams and shrimp was described as a bit dry and lacking flavor.

If you’re a fan of fine dining, I recommend La Bella Vita. The service, food, and atmosphere were generally good. The taste of food can be very subjective, as some prefer more muted flavors, whereas I prefer well seasoned, bold contrasting flavors I would say the flavors were generally muted but still tasty and I believe it’s inline with the clientele.

With all that being said, I liked the restaurant and I would visit again. I had asked my table to take photos, most of us were too busy eating, but we did get shots of a few dishes.”
