Bistro Bella Vita never fails to exceed my expectations. A Grand Rapids staple. Before concerts, shows or just for fun. Very spacious and comfortable dining area plus bar. Atmosphere is great with an open layout, and great view of the city. This restaurant has an upscale type atmosphere with a modest price for what could be considered fine dining. Professional staff is very friendly and prompt to seat you and get your drink and food order. Food menu has great and unique options. Pricing is a bit higher than some places but still on par for many restaurants in the area. Quality of food is exceptional and the portion size is adequate. Lots of healthy options to choose from and the seasoning is...
My stand son-in-law took me here for Mother's Day. We had a wonderful time. Our server was so friendly and helpful. I ordered the roasted chicken and it was fabulous. My daughter enjoyed her ravioli and my son-in-law had the risotto with lots of shrimp the portion sizes were more than generous and all were delicious. We wrapped up our meal with a shared treat of chocolate gelato. This was my second visit to Bella Vita, and my kids had been here and few more times. Always a treat and always great food and service! Dietary restrictions: Lots of gluten free choices
We booked a table with our wonderful friends to celebrate my daughter's 15th birthday. The atmosphere was perfect for Instagram! Upon arrival, they greeted my daughter with a warm "welcome, birthday girl," making her feel truly special. Everything we ordered was delicious. The appetizers were sized for sharing, and the portions for all the dishes were generous and tasty. To top it all off, they had my favorite wine available. Our server was attentive and very kind. The prices were reasonable. I will definitely return to Bistro the next time I visit Grand Rapids.
Our server Ashley was extremely attentive. She was very helpful with knowledge of our allergens and making sure we knew what substitutions we could make. Vegetarian options: Servers are clear on what can be made vegetarian and what can be substituted Dietary restrictions: Servers were knowledgeable of allergens and what dishes would work with substitutions

Great place for a quiet dinner, date night, or special occasion. The food is quite good, but is definitely on the more expensive side. I do beleive the price is justified given the exceptional service and quality dishes. Our waitress was kind, attentive, and made sure to make our celebratory dinner special.
Such a great restaurant! We celebrated a birthday and they customized the menu for our celebration, served dessert with a BD candle--service was outstanding. And all this personalized service while the place was buzzing with large groups of prom kids.
Given the reviews, I had high hopes. But the pizza was mediocre, very heavy with cheese and sauces, the salad had old lettuce, and a Tito cosmo was considered premium price. Given the high prices I expected better food and a better experience.
Beautiful restaurant, the food was amazing. I recommend the broccoli and cauliflower appetizer. The pesto entree was phenomenal.

The food, and wine, is always INCREDIBLE. Add exceptional service on top of that, and we're customers
Had a nice date-night with my wife. Dinner, drinks, and service were all excellent.
