My wife and I found this gem while trying to find a place for our last dinner of our vacation. Quite honestly, it was absolutely delicious. Our server, Angel, was the epitome of professionalism, attentiveness and politeness. I had one of the best pizzas of my 46 years of life, and my wife loved her chicken piccata. It was totally worth the cost.

My fiancé and I had dinner here about a month ago, and it was delicious! The servers were really on the top of their game, and the food was delicious. We sat by the window where there was a pretty view of the water. Would recommend!

Best breakfast in town. The stuffed french toast is the best. We went twice for breakfast during our stay in Bar Harbor. We tried the omelet the first day and was very good. Service is a little bit slow, but the food compensates for it. This is my second time in Bar Harbor in 2 years, and I can tell while other places in town might be cheaper the food is not that good. I will keep coming back to La Bella Vita for breakfast when visiting again.

What a fabulous restaurant. All the staff were hustling working hard. The bartender was the best. He was making drinks for the restaurant and servicing the bar. Very busy place. The food was outstanding.

Early start to our day so returning to bar harbor after Cadillac Mt and walk across to bar Island at low tide, there are not a lot of breakfast options. Stopped here. The stuffed French toast was amazing, my son (7yo) was very happy with his pancakes and eggs. I ordered the lobster Benedict. The eggs Benedict was good, I think the lobster was a bit over cooked and small for the price.

Excellent food from appetizer to salad to entree. The staff was exceptional, from waitstaff to the manager. The manager came to my table three times to check on me. She was also overheard complimenting the waitstaff for their work. Waitstaff was equally attentive. Impressive experience. Recommend 100%.

We have been coming here yearly and I cannot say how much I enjoy their pizza and pasta! Everything is so fresh and delicious and the service at the bar is stellar. We love to watch the pizza being made! Highly recommend if you are tired of all the lobster and seafood spots in town.

Definitely recommended for gluten-free food lovers! Pizza and salad both were delicious. Service was super fast and staff was super friendly and helpful with gluten-free options.
