    Let it be known I love this place! I've been on many occasions, mostly for special events or when family is visiting. It's always a special evening. On this night my friend and I both had the burger which is such a decadent and rich tasting piece of heaven. So flavourful and juicy, cooked to perfection. For dessert we shared the limoncello tartufalo which was so fresh tasting and the perfect balance of sweet and tart. The only thing that was a slight let-down was no decaf coffee on the menu. That time of night I can't have caffeine but really wanted a coffee with dessert. Settled for peppermint tea but not quite the same in terms of flavour combination with dessert.

    It was our first time at Bar Vita, based on reviews we decided to visit for our date night. It did not disappoint! The atmosphere was amazing, food was awesome and our server Shelby was outstanding! I would highly recommend, we will be going back on a day when they have live music.

    We have dined here quite a few times over the years, and are never disappointed. The food is excellent, esp the Rose penne, and Shelby is one of the best servers in the business. Highly recommend.

    Excellent food and service. Good music but noise level allowed our party of 7 to converse easily at a large table. Will definitely be back!

    I can’t say enough about the food and service. The menu is just right. A little bit of everything to choose from. The cheesecake is the absolute best!

    We reserve the booth on the Open table app. When we arrived the staff informed us that the booking didn't show it. The waitress was not knowledgeable about the menu. Our food orders were mixed up. The food itself was delicious.

    Great spot for date night! Mussels were delicious. My go to main dish of seafood gorgonzola pasta did not disappoint. Live music was great.

    This was an evening well spent with great food. I would definitely return. The portion size was more than enough as I was able to take a treat home with me for another meal. The staff were so friendly and the ambience and restaurant was lovely. I was taken back with the historic ceiling also. Fine dining at its best for sure!
