"The food was excellent and enjoyed the atmosphere"

"This is our second time. Just as awesome as the first visit. "

"liked Robin Miller Italian food isn't my thing Menu options would help."

"Patty was our server, and she is excellent. We had her once before and were delighted to have her again!! She is knowledgable, cheerful and quick! We've loved the menu items we have had in the past, but were not as delighted with the shrimp scampi (too much lemon, too little garlic) and the prime rib steak, which was excellent."

"I did like your location, not next to the hardware store or ups. Brett was a great waitstaff. Good portions and a very taste dinner. NOW to desert, Brett served a GREAT Banana Flambe, that toped off the whole evening experience . And weekend entertainment on the patio to complete the evening. "

"outdoor dining... fish great, moist and not overcooked spinach salad good Music was wonderful by Bobby. service by Bret ... smile and eye contact"

"The change in bartender means we will return."

"Good experience. The manager visit all the tables! Makes people feel important. I ordered fetuccini bolognese and got alot of sauce and a little pasta. I asked for more and got it easily. Suggest that you give a decent portion first to avoid this problem. Some people have "healthy" appetites. My wifes Veal dish was excellent."

"Excellent service. Food is very good. Friendly atmosphere. Every time we visit Sedona we always dine at Bella Vita Restorante. Try it you won’t be disappointed."

"Service is very good but kitchen was shortstaffed and we waited a long period for main course to arrive. Staff did everything possible to make us comfortable and dinner was delicious when it arrived."

"First visit. Atmosphere excellent. Servers were attentive Great menu with many choices. Hardly able to limit it to 1. Thanks for the great first visit "

"Atmosphere & food is terrific. "

"We celebrated my birthday tonight and chose our favorite ristorante for the occasion. Treated as old friends and everything was outstanding as usual. We were totally satisfied, less the year number of my birthday. Thanks to all."

"Atmosphere and efficient service "

"We had a fairly large group. The service was prompt and outstanding. Brett did a great job getting all the orders, checking on everyone throughout the dinner and bringing separate checks for those who requested it. The food came out at the same time which allowed everyone to enjoy eating together."

"The food was fabulous. We celebrated my birthday with you and was offered a free gelato for dessert."

"Atmosphere conducive to fine dining Wait staff excellent friendly service Food outstanding"

"Gayle was our server and she was perfect. The food was delicious and plated perfectly. We enjoyed everything except it was too hot to eat outside but that's where the live music was -- and there's no speakers inside. We have seen many FB postings about the live music and we were really looking forward to having the entertainment and were disappointed that we couldn't hear it."

"Pleasant atmosphere, great food! No improvements necessary!"

"Our server was moody because I wanted to pay the extra for GF pasta due to my stomach issues. Maybe he was having a bad night, all the other servers has always been outstanding, friendly, professional, as he being a new server, and this being his first night could explain his attitude. HOPEFULLY, Fortunately we are very familiar with this restaurant as we are here very frequently and realise this is an isolated incident due to a new server.."

"Everything was wonderful! My salmon was good perfectly as well as my sisters filet. We love Bella Vita! Christine is an excellent server! Thank you"

"The food was delicious. It was a pleasant surprise not to be in freezing ac, the temperature was pleasant. "

"Great Food! Maybe different red sauce options/choices for the pasta"

"The food is always delicious, and the service is the best. We love Brett - the best server in Sedona. We really enjoyed Dan Vega. It was our first time to see Dan perform but definitely won't be out last. We love the rewards program you've started. It keeps bringing us back (along with Brett, and the food :-)"

"meals were great - waitress Gail, very personable, efficient and fun. Improvements - actually none needed, if anything - perhaps just a hair more light, but that is a personal taste to be taken with a grain of salt! Everything, as always, was enjoyable and again - great meals."

"The atmosphere and the service Excellent!!! As Aiways!!:)"

"The food and service is always excellent."

"Good entertainment; excellent service; a wider range of appetizers would be appreciated."

"Food was outstanding, service was excellent+ music on patio was great and staff was really friendly!!!"

"Food was incredible "

"Our group liked the outdoor venue, and the band playing - Green Light. We waited 15 minutes for water, another 15 minutes before we ever got a drink from the bar. I understand it was an unusual evening with people not showing up for work, but this band draws a crowd and you need to staff for that."

"We liked everything!! It was a great experience. Thank you. We will visit again."

"I love the atmosphere. I would like to see more vegetarian options. ??"

"Food was great, as was entertainment (Green Light). Service was a bit slow that day, tho. Otherwise, everything was fine."

"Food. Fabulous "

"Love Bella Vita and have enjoyed it many times. Enjoyed the meal on July 5, but think it was too much food. The eggplant was delicious, but have enjoyed it more at previous meals. Looking forward to my next meal."

"Every meal we've had at Bella Vita has been excellent. The staff has always been very attentive and friendly. Dan personally visits every table t ensure service and food is to our liking. It is our go to dinner restaurant when we have visitors."

"Food was great and our server was amazing. Thank you, we will definitely be back."

"We appreciate the availability of a "quiet" room to simply enjoy an excellent meal. The presentation and flavors were very satisfying."

"I had Osso Buco for my birthday meal. It was delicious, but it did not remind me of the Osso Buco I had when I lived in Italy. It was different so probably I was expecting the dish to bring me back."

"Brett and Gayle are great. Great service, food and drinks. We'll be back Saturday for music and bringing two other couples."

"I'm northern Italian and visited my cousin's in friuli Italy and a V10 many homemade cook meals and Bella Vita is spot-on. I stayed at the Sedona Pines where Bella Vita is located and had dinner just about every night while staying there. the food is superb and the service is fantastic highly recommend this restaurant. Bon appetit"

"Sammy Davis is a fantastic entertainer! We love singing along and dancing to his songs."

"Food very authentic, ambiance excellent, wait staff superb."

"The veggie dish I ordered (primavera without the pasta) was excellent! Great mix of veggies and the seasoning was absolutely delicious. My friends love their entrees, too, Salmon and Filet cooked right on the spot. We alway recommend Bella Vita, and look forward to returning. :)"

"We have dined at Belle Vista several times in the past year. Every visit has be a very fine experience. We live here in Sedona."

"We arrived a bit after 5:00 on a weekday evening, and were rapidly greeted by the hostess. We chose to sit at the bar, and were rapidly greeted by Shane, the bartender. He provided the Happy Hour menu and took our drink order. He also provided the full menu, at our request. He offered bread, which we typically decline, but I'm glad we didn't. It was most excellent, as was the accompanying olive oil & garlic and balsamic. My partner was very pleased to find several veal options, and selected the vitello limone. I chose the cabanara. Both dishes were excellent, with ample portions to take home. The bar was a sociable place, and we conversed with Shane and the other couple present. The HH chianti was very good. Our only complaint would be the price of my partner's Tanqueray & Tonic. The tonic was very good."

"We were there for dinner on 6/25 with friends who were visiting from NJ. It was a beautiful evening, so we sat on the patio. The service was excellent, and all 6 of us said the meals were incredible! The amount of food and the flavor were excellent! Very enjoyable, and reasonably priced. We will be back! "

"Great ambience and service and excellent food!"

"The marinara sauce should not have sugar added, it makes it too sweet and takes away from the dish."

"Patty was wonderful. The wine list...not so much. It could use improvement."

"We really love the flourless chocolate cake. It’s the best we have ever had."

"In my opinion you have the best Italian food in Sedona. Better than Lisa Dahl's restaurants. Thank you for that. Love your food, love your outdoor patio and your cozy restaurant inside. The entertainment you provide is so enjoyable. That being said, the one thing that stands out to make our visit the most enjoyable is Brett. He is just so darned awesome. We love him and he does such a great job taking care of us. He is one of the reasons we come back again and again. "

"The ambiance, the staff, and the quality of the meals were top notch. Bella Vita is definitely a go-to place for an upscale experience."

"The food was beautifully presented and delicious. Christine was an attentive and excellent server, and thoroughly explained the new rewards program."

"The food, ambiance, music, wait staff were all excellent. We were sitting in the corner near the music and there was a A/C vent right over us. It had been raining and temps were cool already - I'm glad I brought a wrap."

"Great to see Sammy Davis back. Your food has always been very good and prices reasonable."

"Miss Ron, but Christina (who was our server this trip) did a very good job. Plus the busy staff was always available to clear empty plates or fill water glasses. As for the food, it was excellent as always, but the first dish of spaghetti almost always has too little spaghetti and a lot of very good sauce. My wife always asks for a second bowl of spaghetti without sauce to mix with the remaining sauce from the first go round."
