If you like overpriced, bland, unauthentic Italian food, you might like this restaurant. It's a nice place and the waitress we had was top notch, but the food was a big disappointment. The red sauce on my wife's chicken parmigiana tasted like store bought canned sauce. My chicken fettuccine had a piece of chicken that must have been about 3 ounces in size and was tasteless, $34.00. I had a $17.00 salad that was half croutons. They need to find a cook who knows how to make Italian food. Sorry to say, we won't be back.

I really wanted to like this place. The food sounded great and the views are absolutely stunning. We ordered the fried calamari which was slightly overcooked but that happens sometimes so I let it go. Then we got our entrees. My dish was loaded with overcooked lobster, shrimp and calamari and dry squid ink pasta. There was barely any sauce on the plate.
My wife ordered lobster ravioli which she enjoyed. I woukd go back one more time but the chef really needs to stop overcooking the seafood.

This place is simply beautiful. Definitely great for a date night as well. Myself, my husband and my best friend enjoyed dinner there on the 2nd of January. My ribeye was cooked to perfection. My husband had Cioppino and he LOVED it. Never had it before and was excited he ventured out of his comfort zone to try it. My best friend had the lamb mid-rare and thought it was perfect. Unfortunately as we tried each other‘s dishes, we did not realize that the lamb was encrusted with pistachio nuts because we didn’t read the menu fully like we should have. My husband has a tree nut allergy. So immediately, after he tried my friends lamb dish, he had a SMALL allergic reaction. Because of policy they let the casino EMS people know. And when I tell you they were no help… I’ll scream it again! They were no help! The manager Lorene went straight down to the casino store and purchased Benadryl (as my husband requested) to give to my husband. And as soon as he took those, he was as good as new, he could breath comfortably again. Our server Juan was so attentive and when he knew there was an issue he jumped into action and informed his manager. But also his service was flawless. He was stunning in every way . I recommend the food. I recommend the service. And also these are good people. Thank you Bella Vista crew! We really appreciate you. And we wish you the best new year!

Reservation was at 7:30. Seated Immediately, ordered about 7:45. Did full order at once. Did not get main dish until 9:00 PM. Sat about 1 hour after appetizers were served. We will not return to this restaurant again.

The food here is phenomenal! The meatball appetizer is fantastic and eggplant rolitini is divine. The oso bucco was melt in the mouth tender and the peach pastry with the gelato was a masterpiece. Is the food expensive? Absolutely. In my opinion worth it. We boxed the leftovers and will enjoy those for lunch. Now if you like your pasta overdone, this is not the place for you.

The service was really slow. The Caesar Salad was wilted by the time we got it, the Chicken Parm was terrible. The chicken Alfredo was the only good thing, even the Lobster Maccaroni was just fair. NOT EVEN WORTH THE PRICE THEY CHARGED ! We went down into the casino after that and got a burger.

I guess I’m gonna be the only one to tell the truth about this place.
#1 highly overpriced.
I messed up and thought wow they have oysters, obviously they will be the small tasty ones and not the giant gross milky ones that cost like .50 (barf)
If you order Ask first!!!
Oh man were they gross
We didn’t even want to order anything else.
Ended up trying the “minestrone” soup $9
FYI great price and large portion….
But tasteless and missing broth since it’s basically just pasta in tasteless tomato water
The wine was meh. I figured it would be better since the Maryhill red blend they have at the other restaurants are about $13 cheaper.
Would I come here again? Sure if I or anyone I knew wasn’t paying.
I rather go down stairs for steak and lime and lure for seafood.

Very nice restaurant at the top of the hotel tower. The menu is always very fresh and the service has always been very friendly and personalized. There are great views of the mountains and farmland.

This once fine restaurant with amazing food has been redone, seemingly to competenwith Olive Garden rather than to be a fine dining destination. Unfortunately, it even loses that competition. The new menu is a shadow of the old restaurant and the food can't be described as edible. The staff was great and the view is good.

the only thing i liked about the restaurant yesterday was the waitress. that's where all the good stuff ended. my wife and i wanted to celebrate our anniversary there but at the entrance they said they had no table seats and we had to wait 20 minutes but 6 tables were free and 20 minutes later they sat us at one of them. i want to ask these idiots why did you make us stand and wait 20 minutes when you have 6 empty tables? now about the food, do you consider this italian cuisine? no guys you'll be disappointed. the bill for two was $120 and if it weren't for the charming and polite waitress i wouldn't have left a penny in tips. thanks for ruining the holiday.
