I miss the chinese restaurant on north Street... I think it was called Peking Garden

19:24 Are you kidding? You've never checked Open Table reviews? Both Bellissimo and Mozart have excellent OT and Yelp reviews. I have no reason to endorse one over the other except for the fact that I have gone to both and have had my own experience. Just trying to be helpful and share.

Don't. I have a hunch that multiple endorsements of Bellissimo were posted by the same person.
Disclaimer - I have never been to Bellissimo, or Villa Mozart. My sources of information on good dining are Tom Sietsema and Todd Kliman's chats and Yelp cross-checked with Tripadvisor.

LOL. Thanks for slapping some sense into me. I just went back and read the Trip Advisor reviews and am sticking with my initial opinion.

No- it's Villa MOZART. And Bellissimo is far better food & ambiance- really.
Forget the menu and go for one of the specials of the evening.

Hmmm...I'm the PP with the typo on Mozart.

I look at Bellissimo's menu and think, "How can this place be any good?" The loooong list of menu items is usually a bad sign. Have you watched Kitchen Nightmares?

It's called Villa Mizart. And it's wonderful. Not child-friendly, though.

I've never been to Bellissimo, but they have too many items on their menu, IMO.

Definitely Bellissimo- best food by far.

Cafe Mozart

Check out Bellissimo Restaurant- corner of Main Street and University- looks quaint and food is divine! Good luck.

My DH's parents are coming next weekend- and I'm desperate to impress. Any NICE, upscale
but friendly restaurants in Fairfax City where we could take them? TIA!
