Reviews for Bella Vista Trattoria & Wine Bar in Toronto, ON
Cute family owned business and I’m here for ALLLLLL their food. There’s no words to describe the authenticity that is very... much noticeable in their foods - ASTONISHING, I can eat here everyday???????? ???? My Bf and I have celebrated birthdays andanniversaries here, to the point this spot has become a staple in our lives ???? We come here for a quick bite and drink in thesummer after festivals and soccer games, or even just to be social with friends and family (who also can’t stop raving aboutthis place)!! Pat is awesome, his customer service is top notch and he takes great care of his customers. If I could rate thisspot a million stars, that’s exactly what I would give. A MUST if you pass by here.

Had dinner here on Friday and was fairly disappointed. The server was clearly stretched and unable to keep up with the amount of... tables she had. She also told us there was only one person in the kitchen so food was very slow. I don't blame any of the staffworking, but at a certain point I feel like it's better to turn tables away then offer mediocre service. We had to order ourappies more than once (twice off the server, and once off another gentleman), and then only ended up getting one of the twothings we ordered. As we were leaving we realized we were charged for the caprese salad we never got, but didn't want to sitaround and wait for someone to help us. I'll give them benefit of the doubt it was an off night, and clearly had staffing issuesbut unfortunately I don't think I'd go back. Read more
Hands down, my absolute favourite restaurant, for all the reasons that make you want to keep coming back to a place. I was... first introduced to Bella Vista a few years ago at the recommendation of a friend, and it has easily become my “place togo”. Whether seated inside, or out on the patio on warm summer nights, my experience here has always been second to none. Thefood is fantastic, the portions generous, and the staff are always willing to accommodate a variation on the menu item to makeit perfect to your liking. The service is always friendly and attentive, with a perfectly balanced, respectful approach thatlets you quietly enjoy the company you’re with while always ready and available when you need them. The cocktails are sotasty, but as a wine girl, I lean towards my chardonnay, and, because I come here so often, it is almost always being poured forme the moment they see me walking through the door (again, the customer service!). The owner, Pat, truly puts his heart and soulinto the place, you can tell; there’s a warmth and vibe here that is part of its charm and has much to do with why I havebecome a repeat customer. Perfect for a date, a night out with friends, or with the family, I can’t say enough how much Ilove this place. Since being introduced to Bella Vista, I have recommended it to everyone that I know, and will keep coming backfor more, because I simply cannot get enough! Read more
This place is authentic and delicious!! Get the carpaccio no matter what! The seafood is sooo perfect. The grilled calamari was... perfect- ot chewy & overdone like most places. The bread and fresh out of the oven and the flavours of everything were onpoint! Get yourself a nutella martini while you're at it! 5stars all the way. Read more
Went to have some dinner a few hours ago.. I literally couldn’t resist myself to meet up with chef Edward Rozario. The steak... was so tender and very well cooked and the pasta was outstanding! This is my third time there and it was worth it. I highlyrecommend this place for authentic Italian food. Read more
Excellent food. Friendly staff. This place has a really nice aroma. I also like the decor and the atmosphere. We were 9 people... so it was not easy for them to serve us. However they did an excellent job making it happen. I highly recommend this place forromantic dates and special celebrations for two. Oh by the way they have a nice selection of vintage wines that they serve withpassion and they are knowledgeable in this area. Thank you. Read more
Came to Bellavista the other night to celebrate my buddies birthday and was blown away. The grilled calamari was incredible. The... Penne Famosa and the Ravioli was the best pasta I've ever had. And the Tirimisu was incredible. The owner Pat was a great hostand we can't wait to come back. Rachel our server provided excellent service. Read more
