La vita e bella

We were so excited for gluten free food, we walked all the way to this restaurant only to discover they were no longer there! :(This restaurant is permanently closed!

I came to Prague and, being a vegan in Berlin, was not expecting much accommodation from another European city. As my friends and I were walking along the street, I decided to detract from my group as they were going for seafood, and I walked inside in hopes for something vegan-​friendly. Much to my surprise, this was the best meal that I had on my six-​week European excursion.
I was the only person in the restaurant and was seated in the back – a large garden with a beautiful white canopy draping over. While there, I was treated like gold. I was expecting to sit there alone for a half hour while writing a letter; however, the staff spoke perfect English and I ended up staying for a couple of hours speaking to them! The waiter told me the best spots in Prague for both shopping and nightlife while the owner spoke to be about my home-​country and my experience in Prague thus far. Each employee was genuinely interested in my life and wanted to share experiences with me.
As far as accommodating my dietary restrictions went, the restaurant had both gluten-​free and dairy-​free options, making it simple to accommodate anyone! The kitchen ended up making me an exquisite dish of pasta with the tastiest red sauce. After going to Italy on numerous occasions, you can imagine my surprise of having a better pasta dish in Prague as opposed to Italy. Although I will never tell her, La vita e bella’s pasta dish was comparable to my Italian mother’s homemade pasta. The chef even came out to speak to me and ask if I was enjoying the food. A member of the staff, who I assume was the sommelier, paired a red wine with the dish that complemented it beautifully.
I am so incredibly happy that I stumbled upon La vita e bella!

My wife and I came with a group to Prague and were looking for something other than Czech food for dinner. We happened upon La Vita e Bella as we were out exploring the city one afternoon. After perusing the menu and speaking to one of the waitresses about reservations, we decided to have dinner at the restaurant that night. We reserved a table for 11 on the back patio – what a wonderful decision! The food was wonderful and the service was fantastic. We had one of the most memorable evenings of our 12 day trip that night. The wait staff was friendly and knowledgeable and we even were able to meet the Italian chef who came out after dinner to greet us. We would highly recommend this wonderful restaurant to anyone who wants great food, the perfect ambience, attentive waiters, and reasonable prices. It truly is bella!

It might look a bit boring from the outside but the restaurant is absolutely fantastic, especially their calm and hidden garden in the back. The staff is very friendly and helpful, the chef is preparing delicious food (try their home made pasta and bread!)… And all this for a great price!

Amazing place. Me and my fiancé we spent our valentines dinner there. The service was excellent and the food. We def had a heaven in mounth. Worthy to come back.
