My friends and I went to Dolce Vita to celebrate my friend’s birthday , and the food was absolutely delicious. Each dish was perfectly cooked and beautifully presented! We ordered a variety of dishes to share, and all of them were fantastic. The cocktails were also super tasty. However, we were a bit disappointed with the service. The staff came to our table at odd times, and when we needed them, our waiter was hard to find. Even though the restaurant wasn't busy, it was frustrating not being able to get assistance promptly. On a positive note, Dolce Vita is located in a great spot on 14th Street, making it easy to reach and adding to its appeal. Overall, Dolce Vita impressed us with its incredible food quality and presentation. With some improvement in service timing and availability, it could easily become a top dining choice.

Delicious meal! We loved everything. The artichoke crab dip was more than sufficiently crabby, the presentation of the watermelon feta salad was a unique take and a refreshing dish, the steaks were perfectly cooked and the Moroccan chicken dish was tasty according to my dining companions. Yummy sides, which are sometimes an after thought at other places. Great service too, they asked up front about food intolerances and doubled checked a few times too which was so appreciated. I would definitely return!!

5 stars for sure! The restaurant is sexy, well designed and decorated. It is a great place if you want to enjoy ambient, romantic lighting with good music on background. Overall The vibe and atmosphere is good. The staff are very kind and polite and patient which we appreciate. We didn’t order drinks but they looked very tasty on other tables. The food is sexy and delicious too! It is one of the best affordable but classy places for date night! When you go there with your partner you will enjoy your date night for sure! Update: another review for their brunch and another 5stats! This is now one of our go to place! Staff are so friendly, polite and kind! Brunch is light and delicious!

They have a great happy hour with $7 drinks and most of the appetizers. The cheese pizza was really good and hard to stop eating. There is a sophisticated vibe inside with the option of outdoor seating.

While the food options can be a grand slam hit or a slightly off miss, the service is terrific and the decor and ambience is unmatched. We tried several things from the small plates menu, and enjoyed most. The cauliflower with the harissa moresco, raisins, and pine nuts was solid if not epic, worth a try. Their brussel sprouts with labneh, lemon honey, pistachios, and pomegranate in contrast was otherworldly in flavor and literally one of the best versions of this dish I've ever had. The crab stuffed piquillo peppers were quite good as well, but the sauce was a bit lacking. Didn't pair as well as it could with the crab. The Moroccan potatoes with harissa and tomato sauce were forgettable, no distinguishing flavor, I'd pass on those. The salmon with baby corn, bell pepper, tomato confit, and shallots was excellent. The salmon was a bit overdone but the accompaniments more than made up for that. The babaganoush, while beautifully presented, was a huge disappointment, just very bland and not engaging. The spanakopita was excellent, terrific blend of spinach, feta, and tzatzki cream in a light flaky crust. The pork cheeks with red cabbage caramelized with bacon, mashed potatoes, and a heavenly demi-glaze were bold and flavorful, and both in terms of size and heartiness presented more like an entree. The croquettes with bechamel and ham were spectacular, just heaven in each bite. Could have easily had another serving of those. The other standout was their tiramisu, which was set off with the enhancement of a Nutella base. Incredible. Cocktails were fine, nothing epic but solid. Service was friendly, engaging, and knowledgeable. Decor was incredible, especially on the top floor, but the entire venue was like a work of art.
