This is one of the best Italian restaurants we've had in a while. We ordered polpettone (meatballs)…read moreas appetizer then the San Tommaso pizza (highly recommend it!), Tortello Verdi (which was amazing but a relatively small plate) and Carbonara pasta (which was good but nothing to brag about) everything was great!. We also had wine, and their selection is quite extensive. They offered complimentary limoncello when they brought the check, which was a nice touch. Prices are very reasonable, and the place is beautifully decorated, we were joking that it felt like we were in Italy. One thing to note is that you're expected to order at least one dish per person, which is fair given the quality of the food. On the downside, the service leaves a lot to be desired. When we arrived there was no host, and several people were waiting around. It seemed like no one had been acknowledged until I stepped in to ask. The attitude came across as arrogant and we experienced a similar vibe from the waitstaff. It feels like the restaurant may be suffering from its own success: great food and lots of attention, but service hasn't kept up. Would I go back? Absolutely yes.

Loved it ALL! Food, service, and atmosphere were five stars. They were also so kind to drop lemon…read morecello with the check.

We must have hit it at a perfect time because at 10PM on a Tuesday we went right in and got a table for 3.

We had a pizza margherita, pizza prosciutto and 4 random slices from the pizza by the slice that were all very tasty. Basically 3 pizza's, 3 beers and 1 bottle of wine = 40euros! What a steal. Best meal for a deal we had while in Valencia.

We arrived in Valencia on Tuesday 6/24/25 & looked for a restaurant close to our hotel as we were…read morepretty tired by then. We found La Vita e Bella about a 5-10 minute walk from our hotel. Lots of other shops & restaurants were close by in case you needed to walk off your dinner. For that meal (yes we went back a second time!) we chose the lasagna & for an appetizer we chose the fonduta 5 fromaggi to snack on. It was a huge portion & OMGoodness was it delicious!!! The lasagna was served, and it was also a hearty portion. I'm a lasagna snob because I make my own, & it's very seldom that any I get at a restaurant that tastes anywhere as good as mine is. But the hefty slice we got at La Vita E Bella was delicious as well. It tasted every bit as good as mine, if not better. I like lots of meat & not a ton of ricotta cheese in it. We finished most of the lasagna (that we split) & we ate about 90% of the cheese bread appetizer. I'd most definitely recommend their restaurant!! We returned the next day for a pizza to split. It was awesome as well!! The service (Marco was our server) on our first visit & Alejandro for our second trip was attentive without being over bearing. Marco is the one that suggested the 5 cheese baked bread yum!! We sat outside in the open air & watched people go by both visits. Nice, we would eat there again, but we had to move on to another city in Spain.

Fue extremadamente grosero conmigo y se negó a servirme una cerveza en un vaso de pinta adecuado. Me la sirvió en un vasito de papel. Intenté explicarle que me sentaría y posiblemente comería una pizza para que me la sirvieran en un vaso adecuado. Fue extremadamente grosero y me dijo que no. El vaso de papel era la mitad del tamaño de un vaso de pinta y se lo expliqué a una camarera. Ella fue amable e intentó hablar con él, pero él también fue grosero con ella. Este lugar necesita deshacerse del personal que trata mal a la gente. Después de eso, me estaba gritando delante de todos, así que le dije que me diera mi dinero y que me iría a tomar una cerveza de verdad a otro sitio. Tiró mi dinero contra el mostrador y se puso extremadamente feo. Que la gente, incluidos los empleados, vean que este tipo de comportamiento es aceptado no es una buena imagen para el negocio ni para los clientes. Realmente me enfadé, así que le saqué una foto. Luego intentó quitarme el teléfono de las manos y me agredió físicamente. Eso no vale ni una cerveza. La gerencia debería despedirlo. This was a nice place until this italian guy was working. he was complaining of how tired he was. probably was hungover. he was extremely rude to me and refused to serve me a beer in a proper pint glass. he served me in a small paper cup. i tried to explain i would sit down and possibly eat a pizza to be served in a proper glass. he was extremely rude and told me no. the paper cup was half the size of a pint glass and i explained this to a waitress. she was nice and tried to talk to him but he was rude to her to. this place needs to get rid of staff that treat people badly. after that he was yelling at me in front of everyone so i told him well give me my money and ill go get a proper beer elsewhere. he slammed my money on the counter and was being extremely ugly. for people including staff members to see that this kind of behavior is accepted is not a good look for the business or customers. he really made me angry so i took a photo of him. he then tried to grab my phone out of my hands getting physical with me. in no way is all that worth one beer. management should fire him.

While you can't choose anything in particular, you can rule out toppings if you detest something or have a food allergy. I went here recently with a two friends, and ordered six pizettes to share. All of them were surprisingly good, and it was fun not knowing quite what was on each one until we bit in. However, there didn't turn out to be quite as much variety as we expected - all the toppings were mostly variations on different cheeses, with some hame and salami thrown in. There was nothing particularly unique or exciting, which might have been a good thing ;-) All told, this is a fun place to eat with friends; I'm sure I'll be back!
