If you are looking for a new place to enjoy some very fine food, great wine and incredible atmosphere, then you should check out Bella Vita Italian Bistro. Bella Vita is Laurie Attaway's newest restaurant and is comparable in atmosphere and style to her signature restaurant, Aqua Terra Bistro in historic Buford, with the same focus on excellent food, service and presentation. Just a short drive down Hamilton Mill Road, you will find Bella Vita in the midst of the Buford Village, the mixed-use development at the corner of Hamilton Mill and Buford Highway.
The restaurant is one of the first businesses to open in this new development, which hopes to gain the same level success as Madison Park at Suwanee Town Center. Laurie Attaway's restaurant fits very well with stylish "live, work, play" environment being created by these new community centers. Bella Vita, like Olde Towne Tavern and Ippolito's in Suwanee, will provide a community gathering place and fine dining for Buford Village residents, employees and customers of the other surrounding shops, and visitors from nearby communities like Hamilton Mill and Suwanee. I hope to see more businesses and residents moving into the Buford Village soon to support this life-style concept.
My wife and I celebrated our 25th wedding anniversary at Bella Vita and had such a great time that we went back two nights later with my wife's parents to share the experience with them. On both nights, every member of the staff serving us was exceptional in their efforts to make everything about the experience memorable. We were especially impressed with Laurin (with an "i"), our waitress for the anniversary dinner, because she was such a pleasant, fun person to meet. We will be back again soon.
