    I love this place! Our waiter was so fun and funny and the staff are all so nice. Maria is a great worker and should be promoted to manager asap. She makes the restaurant what it is. Pedro is also spectacular and helped us with any tasks we needed and answered questions. The food was very good and Maria, one of the staff members was the absolute best. Ask for her when you go to la dolce vita! Just remember the bathroom needs a key. Our waiter whose name we cannot recall was great and had a big personality and was very entertaining. I am food critic and the food was wonderful.

    The ambience and service are the shining stars here. Food is very good but not sure worth the price. But hard to say anything bad because it was a very enjoyable night. Personally I’d save it for a more special evening than just an average night out. Even though it’s a very busy, loud and energetic place, our round booth table for six in the middle of the restaurant still felt very private.

    Our experience was one of a kind. The food was delicious, and the service was attentive without being over excessive— great balance. Everyone was helpful and kind. I wish I can give more than five stars.  Being disabled, I was advised of the best routes to avoid steps but not “supervised” as disabled people sometimes are. Terrific evening all around.
