"We were very disappointed in the new all day menu. We, along with another couple, were celebrating our 50th anniversaries and were looking forward to the fantastic Italian cuisine we 've had at Bella Vista in the past. We thought we 'd been given the lunch menus and inquired about getting dinner menus. We were told this is the menu now. Mostly sandwiches, salads, pastas and pizzas. Only 2 entrée items were offered....chicken Parmesan and baked salmon. No yummy veal scaloppini, picatta or saltimbocca. Not even chicken versions of these classic dishes. I settled for a past favorite, house made lasagna. Even it was a bit of a disappointment. The pasta noodles, which in the past were light and airy and most likely handmade fresh pasta sheets, were thick, ribbed, dried pasta. The filling was heavy on the béchamel sauce and light on the meat sauce. Half the restaurant area was closed off and we were seated in the area that accommodates large group dinners. There was one going on and it was very noisy. Very hard for us to carry on a conversation. The saving grace was our server, who we recognized from having worked at some of Stockton 's finer restaurants. She was attentive and professional. Others have complained their wait was long and it took a while for their food to come out. I can 't complain about that, it was not our experience. We were seated right away and our food was promptly served."
