    La Dolce is one of the best restaurants in Cancun. The service is extremely attentive! The food is delicious from red sauces like chicken parm or bolegnese or deliciouis picatta fish! The atmosphere is like being in a quaint European bistro! Well worth the ride.

    El lugar es muy bonito, una muy amplia carta de vinos, la atención de todo el personal es insuperable, felicitación especial al sommelier que nos ayudó a elegir el vino perfecto. Lo único que no nos gustó fue que ibamos entusiasmados de conocer su nuevo Speakeasy al cual fuimos invitados cuando llegamos. Y cuando llegó la hora de subir resultó que ya estaba lleno :/ me hubiera gustado que nos avisaran que se estaba llenando para decidir subir antes. Nos fuimos tristes porque teníamos muchas ganas de conocerlo.

    We have been coming to Cancun and dining at La Dolce Vita since 1993, before it moved from the lagoon to downtown. We have brought family & friends there, and everyone raves about it and it is the first place they ask to go. We have been there twice these past two weeks. The owner, Juan Carlos, & the waiters are always there with a warm, welcome greeting. The food & wine & service are superb.. better than where we live in S Florida, and better than we have had in Italy. Do not miss this wonderful place. You will be looking forward to returning. Also, it is right on the bus route.

    The food and ambience was fantastic! Miguel, our waiter was very attentive and knowledgeable about the menu. The wine list is impressive. We appreciated the sommelier’s recommendation. The remodeling was done very tastefully to keep with the original feel of La Dolce Vita!
