This is a favorite for most Petaluma residents I know! Great location and in the summer there is free live music on Sunday near the bar. They have great pizzas and cheese plates. The wine is diverse and usually ( I'm picky!) good! The owner is knowledgeable and so so nice!!

Took the wife there last night. Went inside and it was pretty busy, but VERY loud. The hostess/server asked if we wanted to sit outside. Since it was a little cold outside, the server turned on an outside heater for us which made it fine. We split the Arugula salad, mixed olives and chicken sausages and my wife had soup. I order an Amstel which was brought in a glass- pretty classy! Wife had to choose which wine and got a taste of the recommended one which is she enjoyed. Our server came to check on us to see if we were too cold and then to tell us a large party left and it was a lot quieter inside, but we were fine. Wife had a chocolate cake for dessert which she loved. I wish I had names of the 3 ladies that worked that night, but it was about 7p-8p on 2/13/24. They were all fantastic. We will definitely return because food was good and service was great!!!!! I highly recommend

Another wonderful experience at La Dolce Vita!!! We stopped by for an early Valentine's celebration and good thing we were there before 5pm! The place was filling up! The service is amazing and always on point! They are so accommodating, warm, and friendly. Try the soup! Omgosh!!! It never disappoints! The wine selection is fabulous and so is the menu. We don't go out often but when we do La Dolce Vita is our first choice in town. The couches are very comfortable and the ambience is perfect for date night, girl friends getting together, etc.etc I had the Chardonnay flight, my girlfriend had the Pinot flight, we both got bottles to go, and we ordered amazing food. The soup was (and always is) epic! The Caprese crostini was fantastic, as was the roasted red pepper, hummus, dip. We always feel like family when we go there and it just makes everything so nice. Thank you Sahar for everything! Happy early Valentine's Day! Sorry I didn't take pictures. Everything was beautiful.

It’s a family affair with Sahar and her loved ones. We had an intimate five star lounge experience with her and her staff. Everything was amazing and comfortable, above and beyond expectations. A very personal experience for our Galentines mom’s night out. Sahar is a very knowledgeable and well respected sommelier in the industry. She has opened my eyes to the secrets of the Petaluma Wine Gap. Come and see her and her team, you’ll have zero regrets.

We had a lovely time at La Dolce Vita. Sahar and her sister and mother are so welcoming. This place feels very much like visiting friends in their home. The wine selection is exceptional and interesting, and Sahar has great knowledge of what she carries and can help you pick the perfect wine for the day or occasion you're having. We had the bacon, gorgonzola and roasted pear pizza and is was wonderful. The best thing about La Dolce Vita though, is the feeling of being among friends. We will certainly return, and are already looking forward to it.
