La Dolce Vita

We had to wait 25 minutes after our reservation to be seated. The pasta was undercooked. And everything took a long time to come out, and the timing was very off

I've been here twice now. The food is good. The wait staff are lovely. One problem is that the music is way too loud and the playlist does not fit the ambience of the restaurant. The prices for the martinis and drinks are stupid crazy. I am not motivated to go back!

The two-top between the two booths should be removed or only used as a last resort. Was sat there on a Saturday night with a room full of empty booths. Sandwiched between another couple. Less than 6 inches on either side between the two tables. Might as well have been sitting on each others laps. Was comical to the point we were all joking about it. Understandable to be seated there if restaurant was full. But it wasn't. Was empty otherwise actually.

The artichoke had no flavor or meat to it. The sauce with it was very good. The staff and service was excellent. The spaghetti and meatballs was also very good.

The atmosphere was excellent, service superb and food and it's presentation was beyond expectation. I would recommend it highly. Their selection of wine was fantastic.

My new favorite! I love the old-world atmosphere. The lasagne and veal parmigiana are to die for, and we also loved the spumoni for dessert. The service was spectacular—can’t wait to go back!

Our new favorite LA spot- charming, full of history and nostalgia, and the best Italian food we've ever had in LA!

Greeted with nice host and friendly atmosphere. I got seated and was given a welcome drink while I waited for my other guest to arrive. The server was nice, knowledgeable and polite. Unfortunately what I ordered was not able to be served due to standard issues but the server quickly recommended other dishes to substitute. Overall I would come back here again to try other dishes.

Overall have a classy, vintage Hollywood vibe. Need reservation. Have fun looking cocktails. Price is on par with typical sit in, nice Italian restaurants which was a pleasant surprise. Service was good and professional. A lot of older couples and locals, some families and tourists. Could see it being a nice date spot

First time here. Was great! Cocktails were perfect, staff very friendly and the ambiance was electric. I loved the energy here. Looked like every table was having a great time. My husband ordered the Veal and I had the Branzino. Both were outstanding. Will definitely be back with friends.

The food and ambience was great. The veal parmigiana was great and more than enough for two people to share.

We were celebrating our 29th wedding anniversary and Brian our waiter made us feel very special. His service, demeanor and attention to detail was outstanding. What a memorable night!!

This was a delightful find and we plan to return. Everyone was very friendly but it did feel like there was some short staffing so longer waits than I'd expect between check-ins but since it was a lovely vibe and the food/drinks so good, it's really just nitpicking.

Very busy weekend, reservations must, but worth the wait. Food was excellent fluffy meat balls, theatrical salad presentation, huge veal dish. Friendly service was as good as the food.
