“Fantastic place Great food and atmosphere“

“IL Dolce Ristorante is truly a hidden gem. As a vegetarian and someone who is very particular about food quality, I was delighted by every dish we ordered. The pizza, gnocchi, and fried squash blossoms were exceptional. The pizza dough was light and flavorful, and the quality of the olive oil and cheeses was evident in every bite. Best of all, everything was fresh, authentic, and easy on our sensitive stomachs.

What makes this restaurant even more special is the owner, who is genuinely kind, passionate, and attentive. He takes the time to explain the menu and ingredients in detail, making the dining experience feel personal and welcoming.

The desserts were equally outstanding—the tiramisu and sfogliatella were fresh, delicious, and the perfect ending to a wonderful meal.

I am so happy to have found a restaurant that combines exceptional food, elegant ambiance, and genuine hospitality. I will definitely be returning often and highly recommend IL Dolce Ristorante to anyone looking for an authentic, classy Italian dining experience.“

“Finally came at a time where I could find parking so I waited for them to open. I ordered my nacho pizza and waited.

It smelled delicious when I got it. I took it to go. It's a very thin crust pizza with good flavor. Love the sweetness with a little bit of heat. It was good.“

“Delicious pizza Awesome customer service“

“Great Ceasar salad!!!!!!!“

“10/10 would watch ANY LIVE SPORTS EVENT here again! 🏀 Austin and Gina were absolutely superstars, they deserve an MVP award for handling so many people and being super friendly and customer service orientated! This was my first time in a sports bar in a longggg time and they made our group of 3 felt so at home as if we were regulars. The environment is that of welcoming with people cheering, shouting, talking, laughter all around. The service was quick and the specials were really budget friendly and bang for your buck! Thanks again for the great experience! Glad we got to saw the historic Knicks run at your establishment 🙏“

“Mountain Mike’s Pizza is the spot. Their pizza is very delicious and they really hook it up with the toppings. The crust is not too thick or fluffy, it’s the perfect amount of dough.

Their pazookis are delicious too. My son is six years old and he’s super picky with food, but he loved it here and definitely wants to come back every time, especially for the pazookis.“

“Love it here! Music is always on point m! 😍“

“Really enjoyed a great breakfast here polite hostess and the food was absolutely delicious“

“amazing food! fungi pasta was out of this world!“

“Always the best experience here, the team treats us so well, the ambiance and especially food is so great!! Thanks to Brenda for the recommendations. We had the Honey Bear pizza, garlic ginger wings & the farmhouse trio with broccolini topped w bread crumbs, charred snap peas with Greek yogurt w cilantro chimi churri (my favorite 😋) & the house salad. Thanks again to the team, this is why we keep coming back.“

“I was ordering a pepperoni personal pizza, when all of the sudden the lights started flickering a deep red, and everything went black. When the lights came back on, it was cold, and no one was in the store but me and the young lady taking my order. She was maliciously grinning and staring me down through her brows. She lunged, and before I could react, her teeth were sinking in my neck as the warm red water spurted out. I lost consciousness. When I awoke, it would appear that she burried me alive mistaking me for dead. Fortunately. She left my personal pizza hut pepperoni pizza with a side of chili flake and peccarino for $5.79 next to my torso. I'm not happy about my current situation. But perhaps this pizza will fuel me in my efforts to escape. Very pleasant taste. If I get out of here alive, I will have another. Also I just pooped myself. Smells bad.“

“I didn t even know it existed until it showed up on Postmates Everything was super yummy! GP Cobb salad and sweet potato soup with crunchy Brussels yum! Savor the dark chocolate brownie with sea salt And the maple dijon vinaigrette Now that will create a craving! Glad to have found it Reliable choice!“

“Best Pizza 🍕 in the US! I come back to CA just to eat here!!“

“This was my first visit. I ordered the sausage and pepper sandwich. It was great. I will definitely be coming back.“

“Maybe the best Italian food we've had outside of Italy. Our server Hector was charming and accommodating. He invited (required) us to taste several wines before deciding on a bottle. Overall great experience and the walk to OC Amphitheater was a breeze. Highly recommend this establishment.“

“The younger Hispanic girl is really on her stuff. I think she might be the manager if not she should be. I’m 37 I retired in 2025 and sometimes I worry about the younger generation but her work ethic gives me hope for the future generation.“

“Good place to take the kids play or you when. Family eat 🍕“

“Victor I cannot tell you how much it meant to us that you would go so above and beyond to accommodate our favorite soup
What an amazing experience , thank you to Chef Miriam as well
You made us feel so loved
We absolutely loved the balsamic mix you made us with the fresh baked bread
Would drive down from San Diego any time for this kind of amazing service“

“Great place to watch the games good food“

“Hands down, one of the best fast food experiences I've had! 😃 The staff at Little Caesars were super friendly and got my order well done! I went for the Detroit-style slices and stix pizza 🍕 , and OH. MY. GOSH. The crust was crispy on the outside, well seasoned, and the cheese was perfectly melted. The stix were the perfect combo of crunchy and cheesy. Solid 10/10 would recommend! 😊“

“I pick up pizza 2 times a week from this location and am addicted. I’ve been doing this for over a year and the employees always say “nice to see you!” They have never messed up my order and it’s always on time. It’s my favorite Pizza Hut. The one on Harbor was a little unfriendly. So I stick to this location.

Parking: Always find the same open spot right up front.“

“Don't know what it is about this particular. Papa John's, but their pizzas and food seems to be prepared and cooked above average compared to other Papa John's. The service is good, and the interactions I have with the employees are always appreciated. Usually come here a couple times a month because of that.“

“Very clean environment. I walked into the store and immediately an employee by the name of George helped me. In a very professional manner he asked how I can be helped. Most Dominos won't let you order the mix and match deal in person. I asked George if this was possible, without pushing. He politely said he would check and was able to offer me the mix and match deal. I ordered 3 items and tipped 20%. George is an example of an exceptional employee that cares about customers. He's not the manager, just a regular employee with a lot of potential. People like him can run a successful Dominos store. Thank you for the great service George. Lately I had a very bad experience with Dominos but this purchase changed everything.“
