La Dolce Vita is a quaint Italian restaurant with a very nice atmosphere along with caring excellent service. They also offer some limited outdoor seating but we ate inside.

After seating we were provided a nice basket of sliced small bread with olive oil and balsamic vinegar. The server described the various specials and was available to answer questions. Typical of many restaurants while describing the specials they did not provide the item cost but if asked the server gave the cost.

We (4 people) basically stayed with the menu items. I did order the evening's Caprese Salad which was fine with a big ball of mozzarella but the tomatoes were just okay. I didn't ask but was surprised to see a charge of $26 for the salad when the other menu salads were half the price.

Everyone enjoyed their meals -- I ordered the Garganelli Alle Verdurine. Other item ordered were Insalata La Dolce Vita, Chitarrina "La Dolce Vita", Lasagna Classica, and Ravioli Ai Funghi Tartufati. We did not order desserts but 2 espressos and no wine ordered with a total check of $192.49.

La Dolce Vita is definitely worth a visit.

Outstanding service, treat you like a friend, not a customer. Good wine selection and lasagna is better than I can make ( my recipe is from Tony Cita at the CIA ). Love their tomato sauce on everything. Great dinner value, no need to wait for a special occasion.

1st time here and every bite was as good as the next. Homemade pasta melts in your mouth. Fish daily special with stuffed artichokes was perfectly seasoned. Can't wait to go again soon.

Food is excellent. Good wine list. My only quibbles are the bathroom and bread. There’s some great bread in Italy, so I know that you can do better. The house salad was ok. The prosciutto and buratta was fantastic. Branzino and lobster ravioli specials were done perfectly.Tiramisu was amazing, as was the Lemon sponger cake. Highly recommend.We’ll be back.

Yes. Where the locals go. Authentic Italian home cooking. Pasta made daily. This place has been around for a long time. It’s about time I reviewed. It’s not on OpenTable, doesn’t have to. Located in a quaint area near the beach. We had octopus which was excellent, Spaghetti Chitarrina al rag and Penne daily special with 3 meat bolognese.Local review by a local for over 50 years.

Wr are visiting fromMichigan and some local recommended this place. Don’t be fooled by its location in a strip mall. This is the real deal. The mushroom risotto was amazing. The homemade spaghetti with sausage was so good. Their house wines are great! We enjoyed listening to the locals speaking Italian. Don’t dismiss the location! Go!!
