Really nice staff and food was lovely. I just wanted to chill with my book and they just left me to it while still being attentive enough

We arrived without a reservation on a busy Saturday night, however, we were seated after a short wait. We all enjoyed the food, portions are large and very good value. Will definitely return in the near future.

Being here a few times on this occasion was disappointed with the food felt as if the deep fried chicken had more batter on them to make it look as if the pieces were larger than they were not sure if it’s the same chefs ( well never know) but overall not gr8 on this visit.hope it isn’t losing its appeal and the once quality food is slowly vanishing 🙏

We had lunch here on recommendation of a friend whom I had bought some vouchers for on the Thursday which was when I met the attentive Marco Our lunch was overall very good as was Marcos service, attitude and demeanour, nothing is too much for him his efficiency and manner is impressive Wife had strips of chicken to start with which were excellent, I had the pate which I felt was a tad bland but like the chicken, portions were generous My wife had chicken pasta I had king prawn spaghetti both dishes were excellent and generous portions, garlic bread was great We finished off with cheese cake and a chocolate cake, again excellent, the place was busy but we were in and out within an hour which is very much to my liking as I dont like hanging around waiting for ages Great food, great service and reasonable price

Absolutely superb. Aided by a TV screen revolving / showing with 'celebrities/ professional footballers / boxers who have visited. The Boss was friendly and attentive. I was particularly impressed by the waiters who were friendly, held their heads up and gave eye contact. Consequently, they were attentive to any guests needs rather than looking glumly at the floor like some other establishments I'd visited. I'll certainly return.

If I could give it no stars I would. I had originally booked for my parents birthday which is on Christmas Eve. They are very busy so knew I had to book well in advance. My dads favourite place to eat his favourite was the pasta in the tin foil so I knew he would enjoy it. I thought later on oh I wonder if it will be the normal a la cart menu or a festive one. I knew we would be having turkey forever more come the 25th so wanted to double check we could get pasta/ pizza. I called and spoke to Mimo who was in charge that night. He basically gave me into trouble for bothering him as he had a busy night and his words ‘I have 300 covers here and you are asking about a menu 2 months away??!’ I thought this was really unfair. I live close so I did go see him and let him know who was on the call to. He told me ‘he is Italian and I must have taken it wrong’ really really poor actually. I did let him know I was putting a review up so he will not be surprised by this review. What a shame. Thank you to the waiting staff who were always 10/10 and the chefs who are absolutely amazing. It’s a shame your owner lets you down with his sheer arrogance and ignorance. Just as well Mimo has fantastic staff because it’s because of them that keeps his loyal customers.

Enjoyed dinner at this lovely, vibrant Italian pizzeria and restaurant in Glasgow. Pizzas - good, nice ratio of topping to crust, thin and smoky crust. Also a good pasta selection, with meat and fish options too. I had the sea bass - a generous portion, fish cooked perfectly. We also ordered the goats cheese pizza - also good.

Visited with family and friends on a Wednesday night. It was very busy and our table was booked for 7.45pm. We waited a good 15 to 20 mins and we were eventually asked if we minded eating in the function room. We had the room to ourselves and were able to play our own music via their Bluetooth system which was good. They gave us some garlic bread for the inconvenience which was nice of them. Pasta and chicken dishes were really tasty. We chose from the set menu which was decent value for money. Bella Vita can be a hit and miss but on this occasion, despite the small blip, was definitely a hit. Will return again at some point !

I rarely put up reviews, and I never give 5 stars if I do. However, I’m giving 5 stars to Bella Vita because it satisfies the key criteria for me. The food is nice and substantial for a reasonable price (kids menu especially good value); the staff are really excellent - friendly, quick to respond, and you’re made to feel really welcome and not pressured to order more or to clear the table as quickly as possible, which are two of the things that really get me about so many restaurants these days. We've been a few times before, so these remarks are based on all of those experiences. We've had a fair few things on the menu and nothing to avoid, while loads to recommend - pretty much anything you'd think of as typically Italian. Particular praise goes to Toby, one of the waiters. Definitely due a bonus.

Starters were full of flavour, including garlic bread, surprisingly light although bread looked dense, pasta dish for main was magnificent but steak was just ok, pepper sauce far too thin, even after sending back, sirloin £25? steak tasteless, ok, not wow, could have done the same myself!. Friendly atmosphere, very attentive waiters/owner was a lovely authentic Italian which made it. Give it a try, superb lunch menu if you don't want to go a'la carte prices.

It was my wife's 60th Birthday we had a great meal for 19 people catered for in the Function suite to the rear of Bella Vita. Food was excellent, service perfect good timings on all courses. A great atmosphere just like the restaurant. Great to see Mimmo, Toby, Andre and all. Special thanks to Debbie in the office who co-ordinated all our requirements for my wife, s special night no doubt under the watchful eye of the owner Mimmo. You are always made to feel welcome here.

This family run restaurant not only has superb food, its front of house staff are the friendliest bunch of people I have ever come across.
