Bella Vita Pizzeria in Jacksonville

Went to the counter to order, waitress took the order then just walked away. Had to ask the (very nice) guy cooking the pizza (perhaps the owner?) if we paid then or later. I guess the server waits on you, but it looks like a counter service place. An "I'll bring that right out to you" would have sufficed. Pizza was sub par, tasted like a bunch of processed ingredients from Sysco. Sauce was watery, mushrooms were canned, cheese was cheap with no flavor. Crust was pretty good, nice and crispy and they put garlic butter on it. We got the $4.99 lunch special, so I wasn't expecting gourmet pizza, but still. Seems like a local place that could be really good, hopefully they will get a new recipe and maybe put up a sign saying "seat yourself" or whatever. With Moon River so close, I see no reason to go back.

Good mom and pop shop. Tasty pizza!

Great place burger was on point to.

5 Stars from me. Me and my wife are OTR truck drivers, well,me anyway. Our tractor broke down in Jacksonville FL for 3 days. We ordered from Bella Vita each day we were there. This place is always on my "To Eat" list...! Great Food Bella. 👌

Absolutely delicious. Drove from the other side of town to try it, and it was well worth it. I will absolutely be returning.

Excellent pizza looks forward to trying the pasta!

Visited from Ohio.. Was awesome!! Food was great service was also fantastic..I would go again if there again!!!

The food is excellent and the owners are incredibly friendly!

I eat here several times a week. The pizza is great but my favorite is the Buffalo Wings. The Philly cheese steak is also excellent.

Their pizza and wings are GREAT and DELICIOUS!! This is my favorite italian pizza restaurant.

Loved the food, came here when it first opened.

It was the BEST Philly steak and cheese I've had since moving to Jax 13 years ago!

The owners are very friendly and the pizza is great, in a nice atmosphere also!

Philly cheese steak was delicious!

Great pizza and hoagies at reasonable prices

Totally awesome service as well as the food

Really great fresh subs. Stopped as a drive by and took a chance. So glad I did.

Locally owned and good food. I would recommend this place to everyone. Portions are generous for the price and I love the flavor of the pizza. I eat here at least once a week when in town.

We had Pepperoni, Cheese, and Spicy Meat-lovers, as well as fries. The food was good, w liked the crispy crust and fries.The people were friendly-ish. My complaints would be the place it's self is very dimm and musty. Very Kitcken Nightmares "Before". Also the only thing spicy about the "Spicy Meat-lovers" was a few jalapenos thrown on top.

We love it... great atmosphere.. everybody is friendly.... and the food is awesome

Go there at least once a week, everything is always great!

It's always a good time when eating here. The owners are just really good (down to earth) people and the food is awesome.

Loved the prices and the calzones.

Great place !
