Dai Viga Pasta Fresca is a beloved family-run establishment in Bellagio, renowned for its traditional, handmade Italian pasta. Our second visit to this delightful spot has only deepened our appreciation for its culinary offerings and warm atmosphere.
From the moment you enter, you are welcomed by the open kitchen where the magic happens. Watching the pasta being made fresh on-site is a testament to the dedication and craftsmanship that goes into every dish. The freshness and quality of the handmade pasta are unparalleled, making each bite a true delight.
Despite the high demand and constant flow of patrons, Dai Viga Pasta Fresca maintains impeccable cleanliness and an inviting ambiance. The staff’s heartfelt service, always accompanied by a smile, enhances the overall dining experience. Their attention to detail and genuine passion for their work are evident in every interaction.
Due to its popularity, securing a table inside can be a matter of luck, as seating is based on availability. However, this only adds to the charm of the place. If indoor seating is not available, there are tables outside, though they might not always have chairs. This setup contributes to the casual, friendly atmosphere that makes dining here so enjoyable.
In summary, Dai Viga Pasta Fresca is an outstanding destination for anyone seeking authentic, traditional, handmade Italian pasta in Bellagio. The combination of exquisite food, warm hospitality, and a clean, welcoming environment makes it a standout choice. Despite the potential seating challenges, the experience is well worth it.

Read moreExtremely Disrespectful and Inexcusable Behavior Towards Children
I am utterly shocked and disappointed by the way we were treated at Da Viga Bellagio. While waiting for my pasta, my two children (aged 6 and 9) were quietly eating their pizza and briefly placed their plates on the outside table. What happened next was completely unacceptable.
The man, began screaming at my kids — yes, screaming at two young children — demanding they leave. His tone was aggressive, loud, and completely inappropriate. It was humiliating, not only for my children who were visibly shaken, but also for us as parents, made to feel embarrassed in front of a full crowd of customers.
This was not just impolite — it was rude, hostile, and entirely uncalled for. There is absolutely no justification for treating children in such a harsh and disrespectful way, especially over something so minor.
The atmosphere quickly soured, and many clients who witnessed this scene ended up leaving the restaurant, clearly disturbed by the incident. That speaks volumes.
It’s incredibly sad and disappointing that a place in such a beautiful location allows this kind of behavior towards families. We came here to enjoy our meal, not to be shamed and mistreated.
They should be held accountable for this kind of behavior. I would never recommend this place to anyone, especially families with children. What happened today was...

He took the card from my hand and tapped it using the contactless feature on the machine on his side of the counter, without ever communicating or showing me the amount to be charged. The correct procedure is to show the customer the amount to be charged and let the customer use their own card on the machine. That didn’t happen here – the employee took the card, went to the other side of the counter, and processed the contactless payment himself.
Later, the same employee approached customers in an aggressive manner, raising his voice over any pretext. Any small issue seemed to be an excuse for him to shout. After being informed by his colleague inside, who was managing the seating, we went to sit at a table that had just been vacated. However, this employee rudely claimed that the table was already reserved for another customer who was supposedly waiting. We quickly realized that this was not true, as his colleague appeared embarrassed by his behavior and allowed us to sit at another table.
The pasta, besides being in small portions, was no better than supermarket fast food. A classic...
