I remember going to this place 20 years ago and it seems very little changed. That could be a good thing or it could be a bad... thing. But this restaurant definitely needs a bit of a facelift as it seems a bit outdated and run down. As far as the food -it was average. Some things are very good, some were so so. We had Italian meatballs appetizer (2 really large meatballs, bigenough to call it a main course instead of appetizer) - good, Caprese salad - it was okay, Lentil Soup - average, AmericanaPizza - very bad, Cacio e Pepe - not my style but my daughter seemed to like it, fish of the day was halibut with butternutsquash Risotto - absolutely outstanding. As far as desserts - we decided to skip it as non if it made in house but restaurantgave us fruit platter with mascarpone filling - very light and very good. Overall, we enjoyed our evening but don't know if wewould be coming back Read more

We happen to walk into this Establishment. And oh my God amazing food it’s a must try that’s all I can say. The meatballs... melt in your mouth. My chicken Parmesan was out of this world I’ve never tasted anything so amazing the sauce was verysmooth. There Italian wedding soup was different from what we’ve ever tasted but it was very good Read more

5 stars isn't enough to rate this place. Not only was the food amazing, the service was over the top. I wish I took pictures of... my food to post on here, but it looked to delicious I couldn't wait one more second to eat it! The owner, Terry, was an absolutewonderful host. He came to our table, and made us feel at home. There were 6 of us in our party tonight, my dad being one ofthem, and he was the most blown away because he really really felt at home. Seeing him so impressed and happy made my night evenbetter. If you're considering trying this place, don't hesitate. Come in for some real Italian food and enjoy. I'm glad I foundthis place, thank you La Dolce Vita! Read more

Had a fantastic dinner with friends there this evening. The owner/manager went out of his way to make sure that we were taken... care of, even moving an entire table for 8 people outside to allow us to enjoy the beautiful evening. The food was fantasticand we were treated to a few complimentary tastings that were exceptional. From the fresh bread right out of the oven, thetomato salad (so good!), stuffed peppers and salads, to the amazing pasta dishes, short ribs and seafood specials, everythingwas top notch. Our drinks were wonderful as well, the service friendly, efficient and attentive and two of our group were eventreated to complimentary birthday desserts while the rest of us dined on fruit and cream. If you are looking for a wonderfulItalian dining experience, look no further than La Dolce Vita. Read more

Wonderful Italian bistro. I was shocked at the size of the appetizer meatball which was the size of a tennis ball. The samples... of pasta brought for us to taste were wonderful. I can't imagine this place turning out any bad food. I could have totallyfilled up on this bread. Read more

My family had a really great experience at La Dolce Vita. This place is eclectic but comforting. Their Gnocci was the best I... have ever had. Also, the Italian Wedding Soup was one of the best I’ve had in a long time. Read more
