Bella Vita Italian Restaurant in Richmond upon Thames

Went there for family dinner and birthday celebration for my little one. Tried their Chef’s recommendations and were fantastic! Staff are friendly and they even lighted a candle on a scope of ice cream and sang birthday song. Great service and dining experience!

Such a cosy restaurant with the best staff, and the food is always amazing!

Staff were absolutely amazing and Service is really good and fast . Annabella is awesome and beautiful!!

My friend and I visited this evening the place is friendly the staff are great and I would definitely come again lovely dinner

My favourite restaurant!! Come here all the time with Friends and my boyfriend! Food, wine, people 🤌🏻🤌🏻🤌🏻🤌🏻

I am a Twickenham local born and raised. This place has always been a big part of the local culture. It is so unique and special because it carries traditional family values and you feel a part of it as soon as you walk in. Lovely atmosphere, delicious food and great people.

Crab special was delicious, staff were very attentive and super friendly! The decor and atmosphere was very authentic and warm - deffo a little cosy gem not far from the station!

Lovely food and service, had a great night, thanks!

We love the place. It’s intimate yet fun and the food is lovely 🥰

Always the best food and service, and the atmosphere is amazing and so welcoming

Shared a lovely meal here with family. Great service and food was amazing. Would absolutely recommend :)

Lovely experience both times I've been

A lovely meal with wonderful and friendly service.

Lovely food and service . Will definitely come here again :)

Loved this dining experience - Elizabeth was very knowledgable about gluten free options. I really appreciated it. Delicious 😘

Best pasta I have had in London so far

The most perfect Italian you could ask for. Family run, best Italian food and service

Such a little gem of a restaurant, the food and staff are amazing, very warm and welcoming, they made us feel right at home, I had the aubergine parmigiana which was soooo good, my brother had the swordfish on the specials board and he said it was better than when he went to Italy, I will defiantly be coming here again, don’t sleep on this place if you are in the area. Bellisimo.👌🏾

My brother and myself went to Bella Vita for a meal before going out for the night. We walked around Twickenham looking for a place to eat. We chose here because it looked very welcoming and traditional. The staff were very friendly and inviting. They explained the menu in detail. I had a meal from the special menu, Swordfish which was amazing. Better than food I had in Rome, Italy. I highly recommend this restaurant and guarantee you’ll love it and return and also recommend to your friends and family. Endy and Isla were so nice and again I big up Bella Vita Roshan and AK from Aldershot

Amazing food and great service from Andy. We will be back !!!

Food and services was excellent would really recommend this restaurant

Based food. Based service. Based vibes. I totally recommend it

The food does not look fancy, it's very normal looking Italian food. But when you put the food in your mouth, it is just amazing. Especially anything with mozzarella.

Bella Vita is a lovely restaurant! The food is the best Italian we have found and the service is superb. A very lovely atmosphere we would definitely recommend.

Excellent first time experience! Great customer service and amazing food that tastes better than my nonna's. Festive food choices are available too. Warm and cozy atmosphere makes you feel right at home. Definitely recommend to try.

Highly recommend it!👌🏻

The food is wonderful and the staff fantastic. Really recommend.

Ma Ma Mia! Great service from the boss, Mr Chami! He made my family of 5 feel like VIPs the very second we stepped into the restaurant from the biting cold. We ordered the starters (calamari and garlic bread with cheese), mains (margarita, carbonara, white crab linguine and beef ragu) and dessert (tiramisu and chocolate lava cake with ice cream). They were all so 👍🏻! Thank you, Mr Chami for your warm hospitality!

Great service and a lovely food.

Amazing restaurant, great food and perfect service. Will visit again for sure

Love the atmosphere and friendly stuff. Food is delicious

I had an amazing experience at this Italian restaurant! The homemade bruschetta was a standout, topped with delicious Parma ham, creamy buffalo mozzarella, and fresh pesto. It was the perfect combination of flavors. The service was fantastic – friendly and attentive staff that made the whole dining experience even better. Highly recommend this place for anyone craving authentic Italian cuisine. Will definitely be back!

Very good food, kind and polite waiters... absolutely worth returning

Best Italian restaurant. Superb customer service and even better food

Great food and excellent friendly service 10/10

I've been eating at this restaurant for a short time and I have to say that the service is impeccable, with friendly and helpful staff who know how to recommend the right wine to pair with each course. The atmosphere is relaxed, but at the same time professional, ideal for a romantic dinner or an evening with friends. The environment is rustic but elegant, with details that recall Italian tradition without being too "touristy". The tables are well arranged, creating an intimate and welcoming atmosphere, ideal for enjoying a quiet evening.

What I can say...I felt at home soon I crossed the main door..the welcome 🙏 and the passion of the all team it was home for me. The interior design is rustic but with high quality for Ditails. Again, I will recommend just going and enjoying the moment because they make you feel special as the service... about food AMAZING in any aspect.. I'm so glad to have this amazing experience. It's quite rare to find so much quality and high standard of service..the toilet...spotless...I'm so impressed 👏 Hod bless you all. You deserve Michael's start ... my sincere gratitude Mr Andrea Mili

Bella Vita is a little gem in Twickenham. The restaurant itself is quirky and intimate with dining on different levels. The service and food were excellent and we’ll definitely be returning customers.

If I could give more stars I would, this restaurant is an absolute hidden gem! I went to celebrate my birthday and they made it very special with all the attention, staff is super helpful, friendly, happy, they are great. The food is just amazing, the best italian restaurant in the area by far. We tried the carbonara, arrabbiata and gnocchi and they were all spot on with authentic flavours and high quality ingredients. I will most definitely be coming back!

Amazing food. Great service. Good prices

Very good Italian restaurant, very friendly staff, prices not excessive, I felt like I was eating in a restaurant in Italy. I highly recommend it

Friendly, alpine style. Brilliant service, delicious food, they clocked it was one of our party’s birthday just from our chat so they brought a special treat. Lovely vibe, very welcoming. Highly recommended

Great Italian, lovely staff, brilliant food and fantastic service. The owner is such a nice chap and the lasagna is always a winner! Well worth a try.

Beautiful restaurant, spacious and clever design inside. Great food, good staff.

It's a bit pricey,watch out for the service charge added to the bill. BUT we loved the place, food and service was top notch

Exceptional food. I would say it may be a little pricey, especially after the service charge, but the service was good and the staff friendly so you pay for what you get!

Bella Vita has been redecorated and is under new ownership since we last visited a couple of years ago. The food was fabulous as was the service and ambience. We will definitely be revisting very soon and can highly recommend this restaurant.

Food was good and the staff friendly and professional

Honestly I’ve been here with friends and family many times, the food amazing &services also, cant Wait to come again😊

Amazing food and good services, we will be back soon👍

Lovely place, personalised experience from amazing staff with delicious food! Been coming for years, and will continue to do so. Layout of the restaurant is very quirky and cool. We love the upstairs balcony, as well as the downstairs mezzanine!

This was our first visit to this lovely place. The restaurant itself felt very nice and cosy and I liked the whole layout of it. The waitresses were so lovely and sweet to talk to. The lasagna and the steak and potatoes with spinach were yummy. I do wish the potatoes were a bit more crispy. Overall, the experience was wonderful and we will definitely be visiting again to try the pizza!

Came for dinner after a really hard day at work and the staff were so lovely and the nduja gnocchi is to die for

Fantastic friendly place, the real deal. Food top notch. Definitely recommend

Me and my boyfriend have been meaning to pop into Bella Vita for so long and I’m only sad we didn’t much sooner. Such lovely waiters, all smiles and excellent service. The food was delicious and the vibe unmatched, couldn’t recommend more :)

I went with my girlfriend who has a very very challenging palette and is extremely fussy about where she eats. I’m often scared to go out with her. BUT Bella vita have saved me!! Incredible food and lovely service has made her satisfied. Will be coming back next week. Beautiful and cosy design inside. Defo recommend.

I’ve been coming to Bella Vita for about 2 years now and have always had great food here, my favourite meals from there are the Garlic Pizza Bread with Cheese, Penne Arrabbiata and the Pizza Diavola. I sometimes modify my meal options and they are always very accommodating. The staff are very friendly and helpful and it has always been a friendly place to go to.
