Bella Vita Bistro

I went to Shanghai on a business trip and chose this restaurant to meet with clients. The service was very professional, with several Filipino waiters who were very friendly. The food was impeccable, and the price was a bit high, but it was understandable given the geographical location and the terrace environment.

The second floor has a high ceiling. We found a sunny day and sat on the outdoor terrace. The leader of the family chose grilled langoustines, the little one asked for cream of porcini soup, and I boldly ordered a roasted spring chicken, which was quite sufficient. But in fact, what attracts people to this restaurant is the bread before the meal. Although the price is a bit expensive in general, the taste is excellent, the service is good, and the environment is comfortable. It's just that there is no parking and I have to walk here. I have been here three times, and the last two times were under blue sky and white clouds, and the temperature was just right. It is a good place to chat and daydream, whether it is a family gathering or a couple of friends. It's a pity that I came here on weekdays and didn't have a chance to have a drink.

The first time I went there, I kept it simple and ordered a lunch set meal. There were a wide variety of choices and the taste was excellent, especially the Montecardo black cod. The Italian waiters were very experienced and showed up when they were supposed to be and would never show up when they were not supposed to be. The interior decoration was gorgeous and full of Renaissance style. Although the space was not large, it fully reflected the enthusiasm of Italian restaurants. There was also a space of the same size on the left side of the entrance, which seemed more suitable for a person to sit and daydream. The upstairs was the truly hidden wonderful space.

[Steak] Grilled Langoustine🦐 The langoustines were split in half and cooked over charcoal. The cheese and basil sprinkled on top added a rich flavor and a more attractive appearance. The langoustines were fresh, firm, and sweet, and the presentation was beautiful. The shape and color of the langoustines were also beautiful. [Steak] Grilled Australian Wagyu M6/7 T-bone Steak🐂 It weighed a full 1.2 kilograms and came with a vegetable salad, country fries, and homemade green sauce. This dish is a generous portion for 2-3 people to share. Grilled to medium rare, the steak is at its best, tender and flavorful. It's delicious even without the sauce. I think just a pinch of black pepper would have been perfect. While the price isn't cheap, the quality is excellent and well worth a try. The fat content is just right, making it non-greasy while maintaining a rich, tender texture. The ingredients are top-notch. [Steak] Crab Meat Pasta on Rye 🍜 It looks more like barley, but it's a small, granular pasta, a rare type of pasta. The texture is also similar to barley, but the addition of Fujian crab meat adds a savory and rich flavor, making the overall dish lighter. 🍹Cocktails🍹 The bartender was amazing. As soon as I asked, he'd whip up a cocktail I was sure to love. I didn't even need to look at the menu; he just asked. [Strong] [Playful] 🌴🌴🌴Environment The restaurant has two areas: upstairs and downstairs, with a bar and outdoor terrace. The tables are beautifully laid out, creating a sense of ceremony. The overall atmosphere is romantic and warm. Whether it's a date or a dinner party, this place is both suitable and prestigious. 💁💁‍♂️💁Service The service is standardized and formal. International students work here, providing standard European-style service, so even foreigners can enjoy a smooth conversation. There are also Chinese waiters, so there's no need to worry about communication difficulties in Chinese.

Italian food paired with fine wine, the bourgeois atmosphere—love it! Everyone's out and about during the holidays ♨️. Some went to France 🇫🇷, some went to Fuzhou. I don't want to be the one to stand out in the crowds. So here we'll have some fine wine 🍷 and an Italian meal 🇮🇹. And then listen to someone's story about their time in Greece 🇬🇷, with the village chief's daughter 👩 and 100 pieces of chocolate 🍫. This is a happy Dragon Boat Festival for everyone ☺️~ Chef Andrea Botti 👨‍🍳 Began his cooking career at the age of 20, and has worked in Miami, Norway, the Maldives, and other places. With over 15 years of culinary experience, it's no wonder his Italian dishes are authentic and delicious. Among the appetizer cocktails 🍸, I like two of the most beautiful ones. One is a large glass of Aperol, Prosecco, and soda water 💦, a classic Venetian-style sips 🍷; The other is a smaller glass of gin, Martini Red Vermouth, and soda water 💦, called 🍷 the Americano. The generous and refreshing avocado poached egg 🥑, and the equally generous 🈵️🈵️ crab salad 🦀️🥗, are perfect as both an appetizer and a full meal. The accompanying celery 🍃 and smoked mayonnaise elevate the look! Selected Italian Ham and Cheese Platter 🥓 A diverse combination of meats and cheeses 🧀️, The flavors and presentation are warm and elegant, Fresh, savory, and a feast of flavors~ Australian Wagyu T-Bone Steak 🥩 Grilled over charcoal, the Australian Wagyu T-Bone steak 🥩 is Tender and juicy with plenty of juice 👅. This treasure-sized platter is a must-try for meat lovers 😋~ Thinly sliced smoked Wagyu beef with arugula 🐂 Thinly sliced bright red beef 🐂, Paired with refreshing arugula 🍃 and 🈶️ oil-preserved 🍒 cherry tomatoes 🍅, Visibly tender and nutritious ✌️~ Dessert is also a great way to end a meal 🀄️. The sweet-looking pear almond pie 🍐 Rich hazelnut chocolate mousse 🌰 Fresh and crispy puff pastry with pistachio sauce 🍃 And the stunning dome-shaped mango passion fruit mousse 🥭 The perfect ending to this brunch!
