Italian Street Kitchen Bella Vista

Italian Street Kitchen Bella Vista is a modern, bustling Italian eatery at G02/11 Solent Circuit in the Norwest precinct, known for wood-fired pizza and fresh pasta. Dogs are welcome at the outdoor tables, so a relaxed lunch or dinner with the dog is an easy plan here.

The dog setup

Dogs go at the outdoor seating on the paved area beside the restaurant, with lake views across the precinct. Staff will usually bring a water bowl on request, but pack your own to be safe. This is a popular, often-full venue, so book ahead and ask for a dog-friendly outdoor spot rather than turning up and hoping.

Worth knowing

The menu is shareable Italian street food with handmade pasta and thin-base wood-fired pizza: arancini to start, a prawn and nduja pizza, an eggplant melanzana pizza for the vegetarians, lamb ragu casarecce and ravioli from the pasta bench, and a well-regarded tiramisu to finish. Service runs from 11:30am daily, with weekday service wrapping at 3pm and Friday to Saturday going through to 10pm (9:30pm Sunday), so time the dog-friendly visit to lunch or a weekend dinner.

Getting there and parking

Solent Circuit sits in the Norwest commercial precinct, easy off the M7 and walkable from Norwest Metro station. There is on-site parking plus more in the surrounding office buildings, which are largely empty on weekends and make parking simpler.

Pair it with

The Norwest Lake loop is an easy paved circuit right on the doorstep for a stroll before or after the meal. For a fenced off-lead run, the Crestwood Reserve Fenced Dog Park is a few minutes away. Coffee alternatives in the precinct include Lakeside Cafe by Chef's and Good Fella Coffee.
