Disappointed. We were a party of 9 that made the booking via website and we were looking forward to a pleasant Easter Sunday family lunch. First dish (mushroom soup) arrived after 25 mins and succeeding dishes came another 20-30mins after that. Worst, I ordered cheese pizza for my young daughters and it was the last dish served after flagging the staff several times. The Sangria came also after 30 mins from order time and several follow-ups. Alas, it was watered down! You can instantly tell by the color. The food was okay. Was hoping it was worth the wait but it was not. In any case, We were too hungry to be critical. Definitely not going back.

Boasting of italian interiors, Buona Vita is definitely on my list of go-to authentic italian cuisine. From the al dente pasta, to the perfectly baked pizza, everything was delectable. I came here for lunch, the place was quite hot, maybe they should upgrade their AC system. Other than that, the experience was one of a kind. Staff were accomodating, courteous, and attentive. Our glasses were filled with water before we know it, and they serve complimentary bread paired with pesto and salsa which can be refilled several times. It's a quiet place where anyone of any age can catch up, but make sure to get a table near the AC just so you'll be comfortable all through out your dining experience.Margherita Pizza - For P350 good for 2-3 persons you get yourself quite a deal! Loved the fresh basil on this one. The thin crust is very crispy which I loved!Crema di Salmone - P360, good for 2 persons! Al dente pasta, creamy but not to the point of satiating, generous serving of salmon. This one is quite a catch!Lasagne al Forno - P380, good for 2 persons if you have a fair appetite. I don't eat beef so I just tried the pasta, I saw the cheesy goodness though and the bechamel was quite rich-tasting according to my friend.Churros con Chocolate - I was disappointed with the serving of this one. There were only 4 pieces for P200. But the chocolate dip was to die for.Tarts - this is not in the menu. They offer the small ones for P60/each. They have a promo of P150/3pcs, and P250/5pcs. I got the 5-pc promo so we could have a taste of everything. My favorites were the Lemon Meringue, Mango and Peach, and Chocolate. Definitely hits the spot but quite pricey, 1 tart is only food for 1 person.

The restaurants ambiance was very good though the space was pretty small. It was also pretty hot when we visited. The staff are really friendly and smiles a lot. I felt very comfortable here. Their main courses are good for sharing for about 2 persons. Surprisingly, the food tastes reallt good! A bit pricey though considering the serving size.
