    Cynthia, you're the best. came in on a whim after a stressful day of moving and just being wanted a quick snack and a glass of wine..Cynthia was behind the bar, at the tables, and everywhere else in between: serving and bartending. She welcomed me and managed to put a smile on my face just by being her friendly attentive self. Food is good, reasonably priced, and restaurant is classy and inviting. Will be back soon.

    Decided to pop into Bella Vita for happy hour with friends and it ended up being such a great choice. The happy hour menu is wonderful with plenty of fun options to pick from. The inside is upscale yet cozy. We had really great service, and I have to name Cynthia at the bar for being the absolute best. Friendly, attentive, and just made the whole experience better. We tried a few things, and everything hit the spot, but the penne à la vodka was definitely the standout for us. We'll absolutely be back.

    Calamari and arancia Rossa

    It's got amazing potential. I wandered in here after seeing the lunch special and happy hour prices. Decided it give it a run. Had a cocktail and calamari while I decided what to take home to eat. Drink was lovely and calamari was good but over cooked. Might of even been precooked? The owner Fabio was sweet and friendly and I was so very excited at the potential ... Ended up ordering, lobster ravioli. Avacado salad, eggplant Parmesan and meatballs. My roomie wasn't a fan of meatballs unfortunately. The best was eggplant Parmesan although the pasta was mooshy so just ate it alone. Lobster ravioli was b+. Happy hour was a great deal. Ordered all the for $60 but I doubt I will be back. Just missed the mark even though value was best part.

    First time here

    It was our first time here and we ordered take out for two. I had the chicken marsala with mash. It was ok. It needed more flavor. It was kinda bland. I needed that kick from the sauce, it wasn't there. The customer service was good though. We will try it again.

    5/5 ambiance & service - Lovely setting with wonderful live music on Saturday night, which made our unplanned visit extra special. The staff were friendly and prompt throughout. 5/5 pasta - Perfectly cooked with a well-seasoned pesto sauce, easily the best we've had in a while. It reminded us so much of Italy! Great portion and value. 1/5 branzino - Two small, thin fillets for $37. The reheated vegetables were soggy, and the mashed potatoes were forgettable. Portion and value were very disappointing compared to the pasta. We still like Bella Vita enough to come back, but next time we'll stick with pasta.

    Fried Calamari

    Came here for an early dinner to catch up with friends - I'd never been here before but always pass it driving around the area. Bella Vita is located within the EOS plaza on the corner of Blue Diamond and Decatur, easily visible from the street, with ample shared parking. They have both indoor and outdoor seating. The interior is decorated in a clean, modern vibe. The booths we sat in we comfortable but the leather/pleater booth seats were cracked and weathered (and was a bit painful to sit on while wearing shorts). Being here for a very early dinner, there was no wait to be seated and service was quick. Food came out quickly. We shared calamari (fresh, crispy, great marinara), and I got shrimp fettucine alfredo. I must say, this was probably one of the best fettucine alfredo plates I've ever had. The sauce was creamy and thick, and the shrimp was cooked well without being overdone. I think I licked my plate clean. I would definitely come back, for sure for the alfredo sauce but also to try their other menu items.

    This one hurts....we used to frequent the happy hour here under the old owner....we have not been back for awhile so we figured we would give the new owner a chance to get up and running for awhile before coming back. We were excited when we entered...the place is quite pretty and the happy hour menu prices have not changed. We ordered a few drinks..a wine and hub got a black Sapporo that he had never tried before. Hands down...the bartender was a standout great employee...but it is not his job to take care of anything beyond the bar. We ordered our food, bolognese and vodka penne and meatballs...we noticed that no particular person was our waiter or waitress...it was a hodge podge of who happend to saunter by at the time...it was weird because we did not know who to flag when the food arrived. When the food came out, it was clearly a full portion...we were not only scared of paying full price, but the portion size was way to big and we ended up wasting a lot of food. When a flag down happened, we asked and they said it would be happy hour price, but they were training people cooking and food came out wrong because of this. When I read other reviews, this seems to not be true...so why would you serve this huge portion of food without warning to the customer and lose profit margin in the meantime? My pictures came out a bit weird on this one, because I got so distracted by the portion size, we started eating...there was a couple of bites out of both pastas and three meatballs total. The vodka...very bland..not that good anymore...bolognese was best..I would order again..but not that size...and the meatballs were just not that good. The sauce on them tasted canned or Chef Boyardee like...and I know that is insult...but that is truly what it tasted like. I may never return here for food...so I may stick to the bar for cocktails because like I said, the bartender was killing it up there. I also noticed the bar was full of patrons...so that is pretty telling.......

    GREAT happy hour menu. 2-6. Great bottle pricing and happy hour food.

    We will 100000% be coming back! The hospitality was above and beyond. We sat at the bar and it was such good vibes. Food and drinks were delicious and great portion size. We ordered off the happy hour menu which has such a good selection of food, drinks and bottle pricing. Can't wait to come when it cools off a bit and sit out on the patio!

    We came on a Friday afternoon and it was not busy. A lot of tables avail and also a bar area. Our waiter took our drink and food order quickly and was very attentive. We all really enjoyed our food and would def go back. Food prices were reasonable and portions were a good size. The alfredo sauce was creamy and not runny. Perfect amount of lemon and capers on the fish dish my friend ordered and the salmon was cooked perfectly and seasoned well. We all enjoyed our food.

    We went here on a weekday night and we were surprised on how slow it was inside. There was only one other family other than us. The service was great! And the food was delicious. I had the avocado salad to begin with and it was delicious. My husband had the lobster ravioli and we ate it all. I recommend both of them. We will definitely be back. Hopefully they get more service soon so they can stay open.

    Love coming to Bella Vita!!!! Great happy hour 2-6 everyday, great atmosphere, prices and outstanding food. Service is always the best. Chef Flavio genuinely cares for all his guests and it shows in his food and his professionalism.

    Bella Vita has reopened under new ownership and it's absolutely amazing!!! The new owner is very passionate about his restaurant and truly dedicated! Wow! What a place. Excellent food !! Excellent service!! Delicious cocktails !!! Bella Vita is truly one of a kind. They prepare everything fresh and you can taste the difference. The pasta is made from scratch, as is the pizza and every dish on the menu with very high quality, fresh ingredients. Everything we ordered was delicious! We absolutely love the menu , simple with popular Italian dishes and the prices are reasonable too! We highly suggest Chicken Marsala, it was made to perfection, not too heavy and chicken was so tender, just delicious. They have also a nice wine list and selection of drinks. We highly recommend them, especially cocktails were amazing. The atmosphere is inviting and staff always friendly and welcoming. Server was well acquainted with dishes and drinks and extremely attentive and friendly. I love how the kitchen is open and you can see the chefs preparing your food. It was very clean and the lighting was perfect! The restaurant is beautifully decorated with modern upscale decor and they have THE BEST outdoor seating area too. Overall: The dining experience was awesome. They have every Friday, Saturday and Sunday LIVE MUSIC, and the atmosphere is fantastic! Also THE BEST HAPPY HOUR, definitely worth checking out this amazing restaurant! We would recommend this place to everybody who likes true Italian food and we will definitely go again!!! Truly a local gem. Highly recommended!!!

    Fettuccine bolognese
    Erika T.

    We went around 5pm on a Saturday, we had a reservation so didn't wait at all. The staff was very friendly. A very large group came in, so the service slowed a little, but nothing too bad. The inside is super cute and they had a live band. They also have happy hour from 2pm-6pm with really great deals. We ordered off the happy hour for drinks and food, but with the larger group, I think our server got a little confused because the items that we ordered on the happy hour were charged at full cost, but the drinks were happy hour. Not a huge deal, next time we will just make sure to say happy hour food when we order. Prices are decently priced and the food is amazing! We ordered the blue diamond margarita, espresso martini, and a glass of rose. For food we ordered the caprese salad, penne allá vodka, shrimp scampi, fettuccini bolognese, and chicken Marsala (not on happy hour menu). I will definitely be back! Everything was so good and fresh! Highly recommended, can't wait to try more

    Love there live music and Haooy hour. Very nice restaurant, great service great food and drinks!

    Ferraro's Saved Me a Flight to Italy!…read more Hey y'all! Okay, so listen... y'all might have to sit down for this one Y'all apparently I don't need to book a flight to Italy because Ferraro's Ristorante brought Italy right to my front door! And yes, I said front door, because I had my food delivered. Before I even get to the food, can we talk about the CARE they put into this delivery? Everything was packaged and sealed so well. Nothing looked like somebody just tossed it into a bag and said, "Next!" Even the utensils were wrapped and presented with care. Y'all know I notice the little things, and to me, that says a lot about a restaurant. Now let's get to the FOOD! I ordered the lasagna, and y'all... YESSS! Rich, saucy, cheesy, meaty and comforting. This was the kind of lasagna that makes you get quiet for a minute because talking is interfering with eating. Ferraro's, y'all just saved me airfare to Italy! They also included fresh bread that's made fresh daily, let me tell y'all about that olive oil! This wasn't just some plain little cup of oil tossed into the bag. You could actually SEE the seasonings settled at the bottom. I gave it a little stir, dipped that bread in there, added some of the cheese they provided and Y'ALL! That olive oil had FLAVOR! The bread soaked it right up. Something so simple made the meal feel even more like an Italian restaurant experience--right at my own table. And THEN came the CHEESECAKE! Y'all, that cheesecake was delicious! Creamy, smooth and topped with berry sauce and fresh strawberries, blueberries, blackberries. And they were NOT stingy with those berries either! The creamy cheesecake with the sweet-tart fruit was the perfect ending to the meal. What really impressed me was that although this was a delivery order, I still felt the care Ferraro's puts into its food and presentation. From how securely everything was sealed and packaged, to the utensils, bread, seasoned olive oil, cheese, lasagna and that beautiful cheesecake--it felt like somebody actually cared about the experience I was going to have when I opened that bag. Anywhoddles... if you're in Las Vegas craving Italian food and don't have Italy airfare sitting around, you might want to give Ferraro's a try. Because apparently, Italy delivers! I'll definitely boomerang back to this spot. See y'all in my next review!

There was a mistake with our order, and our meals didn't come out together, which meant that by the time the rest of the food arrived, some of it had gotten a little cold. What really stood out, though, was how the manager, Elizabeth, handled the situation. She was incredibly gracious, took our concerns seriously, and went above and beyond by inviting us back to give Esther's Kitchen another try. Her professionalism, kindness, and genuine concern for making things right really impressed us. So, we came back on Monday with some of our family for lunch--and what a difference! Elizabeth and the entire staff treated us so well from the moment we arrived. Everyone was welcoming, attentive, and made us feel like valued guests. The food was absolutely amazing. Everything came out fresh, hot, beautifully prepared, and full of flavor. Honestly, the way Elizabeth and her staff handled our first experience completely changed our impression of the restaurant. Mistakes can happen at any restaurant, but what matters is how you respond to them. Elizabeth didn't make excuses--she listened, took ownership, and made sure we had the experience we should have had in the first place. Our second visit was honestly one of the best dining experiences we had during our time in Las Vegas. Great food, wonderful service, and a management team and staff that genuinely care about their guests. A special thank you to Elizabeth and the entire Esther's Kitchen team for going above and beyond. We'll definitely be back the next time we're in Las Vegas. Highly recommend!

The restaurant has that clean, modern, slightly bougie feel without being pretentious, so you can relax, chat, and enjoy your food. We started with mocktails -- I got the Just Peachy, which was refreshing and not overly sweet. Great little starter while we settled in. For appetizers, we shared the meatballs (always a solid choice), and they were tender, flavorful, and perfect for splitting. We also tried the calamari... it was okay. The batter was different from what we're used to, not bad, just not our cup of tea. But the star of the night? The Braised Short Rib Lumache. We both loved it. It was surprisingly light for a short rib pasta -- not heavy, not overly rich, just super balanced and comforting. One of those dishes you keep going back to even when you're "full." Service was attentive and friendly the whole time. Our server checked in just enough without hovering, and everything came out smoothly. Overall, North Italia at Boca Park is a great spot for a casual pasta night, catching up with friends, or just treating yourself to something comforting and delicious. I'd definitely come back for that Lumache alone.
