This was the perfect stop between Charlottesville and the Triangle area so we gave it a try. First of all, the whole place is so friendly - something we don't see much any more. I ordered the portobello mushroom wrap and it was delicious, prepared with fresh spinach (not frozen) and lots of garlic. The fries were just "meh" - nothing special and kind of dry. My friend wasn't thrilled with her spinach salad which was basically spinach with some craisins and cheese sprinkled in. This really isn't a four star restaurant, but I'm giving it four stars in gratitude for the vegetarian menu and for the friendly service.

B is for Bella Vita…read more Continuing my restaurants been to with g/f, Bella Vita was a lifesaver. My g/f parents have a house near Smith Mountain Lake, and we were down there the week of 4th of July 2024. On Saturday, July 6 we were going to Vinny's (which she had recommended), and they totally dropped the ball. We were seated and no one came around for over 10 minutes even with water. We were hungry and didn't want to be sitting there waiting for God knows how long. I was looking on my phone and discovered Bella Vita up the road. So, we got out of there. We had to park a little further, it happened to be their 4th of July weekend celebration. We just wanted to eat; so we entered the restaurant on a specific side as the other side was part of the charged fair. We were served rapidly water, got menus, decided, and got our food in quick timing. Not only that, the food was excellent, and even my g/f acknowledged she liked better than Vinny's. I got the spaghetti chicken parmesan. It was very hearty, but I was hungry and ate it all. Not like I could do leftovers as we were leaving the next day. I even helped eat a little of hers as well as she was like I can't finish this. It was best spaghetti chicken parmesan I've had in quite a while. It's a somewhat small place, but it was comfortably laid out although a bit on the dark side. Overall, this is an excellent place and will try to return.

Our server allowed us in early so we could set up for the surprise party. They had 2 menus, one regular, one vegan. We ordered calamari as an Appetizer, they were cooked perfectly, and it came with 2 sauces, not sure what they were but the green one was incredible. I had a lemon drop cocktail, it was delish as well, and for my entree, I went with the shrimp polenta. This right here.... Was everything's I hoped it would be, it had creamy polenta , like 6 shrimp, and mushrooms and peppers. All blended very well together. So good! I highly recommend this dish and the lasagna too. My daughter loved hers. I will go back for sure next time I'm in the area.

It was really a coin-toss between Bella and what appeared to only be one other non-chain restaurant in Bedford, so Bella got the nod this time. Walking in as a non-local is a little weird as we didn't see the front door and I guess walked in on a young lady folding pizza boxes that directed us to the left. We were trying to take in the space as it has some high walls and many, many hundreds of curios and wine bottles stacked atop all of the dividers... it really is kind of sight sensory overload. We finally found the front door, confirmed that it was just the two of us and were told it was "okay, you're here now" about walking in the side door. Seated quickly as it was mid-afternoon and very low traffic inside. Wait staff were quick, attentive, and happy to oblige two thirsty travelers guzzling waters. My buddy ordered the spaghetti and I ordered what I thought was a personal calzone with spinach, Mozz, sausage, and sauce... what I received was larger than my dinner plate and easily broken into two meals. Yay for hungry people! The garlic knots brought out before the food were a nice touch. I added a little crushed red pepper to them for a kick. Everything was hot, tasted fresh, and the dipping sauce was excellent. Absolutely no complaints on the food or service. The Peroni went down fast and cold, just the way I like them! I would probably give five stars if not for all the odds and ends stacked atop the dividers in the dining area. It really overwhelms the space and doesn't really provide a nice ambiance.

The menu was a special graduation week menu. There was a lot of standard Italian restaurant fare, and brick oven pizzas. I ordered the brick oven lasagna, my daughter had the airline chicken and my wife ordered a salad. My lasagna came in a small iron skillet served on a serving board along with 2 grill toasted pieces of bread. It had plenty of meat and cheesy goodness, just like I like my lasagna! The airline chicken was char grilled with a lot of flavor. My daughter loved it, and I loved the bite I got to try. Overall, it was a very good Italian mea, great servicel at a very good price.
