Bella Vita Lakeside is a beloved Indianapolis, Indiana dining and bar destination with casual charm and waterside ambiance at Geist Marina. Opened in 1998, Bella Vita was created to deliver wonderful food and service alongside fantastic views—an experience many locals know as the “Bella Vita lake effect.” The venue is currently under new ownership and management, and the team invites you to stop by soon to meet the new faces and learn about exciting changes on the way. Serving lunch Friday through Sunday, and offering a delightful spread of breakfast favorites for Sunday Brunch, Bella Vita keeps the weekend energy going. The menu features an enticing Italian selection designed to delight guests any time of day, complemented by a standout wine experience showcased in a temperature-controlled waterfall—ideal for both novice wine drinkers and sommeliers. For atmosphere, Bella Vita delivers both indoors and out. Enjoy the Lakeside Beach Deck with an updated menu, where the summer season has been known for live bands and impromptu dance parties. Guests can also unwind with lakeside relaxation in VIP cabanas and choose from a welcoming indoor-outdoor dining space. Bella Vita Lakeside offers event-friendly amenities including a spacious private party mezzanine, VIP cabanas, and versatile dining areas to fit different tastes and budgets. With its lakeside views, seasonal vibe, and engaging hospitality, it’s an Indianapolis option for those looking to dine, sip, and relax on the water.
