Terrific food and service just what the town say great service and delicious food. Ii believe if you are in town you should make a point to visit the restaurant. Manager was very nice and grateful for us making our place my homecoming. Thank you lisa kueper for turning us on this place

Romano the co-partner and José our server were both so marvelous. Romano debuted this lasagna recipe of his which was perhaps the best lasagna I've had in a decade. The wine was delicious (and half priced on Wednesdays). They treated us to a tiramisu for the birthday we were celebrating. This is a top notch under-the-radar Italian restaurant, for sure!

We came here for lunch during the week. Parking spots are tight but we were able to find a spot quickly due to slow traffic. We ordered a fig and pig pizza, calamari and pesto chicken pasta. The food was delicious, service was great, the server was attentive and food was served efficiently. The interior of the restaurant looks nice, with renaissance paintings and European architectures on the wall. Will definitely recommend!

Amazing food, authentic, cooked CORRECTLY!! I highly recommend the place and if possible ask to be seated where Calvin can be your server. He's incredible. Knowledgeable, funny, and caring.

I love this cozy restaurant. My partner and I decided to have lunch here while we were out running errands. Although it was noon, it felt like dinner for us since we start our days early. We enjoyed some Italian red wines and ordered the Ricotta dip with grilled bread as a starter. I would add a small side of additional toppings for the Ricotta (honey, walnuts, salt/olive oils) as you eat down through the layers. It was delicious but the top layer was the best. We also ordered the grilled octopus appetizer with artichokes, veggies, and potatoes which was absolutely delicious! My partner tried the make your own pasta option, which he really enjoyed choosing noche with rosa sauce, chicken adding in veggies at $1 a piece upcharge. We ended our meal with a delightful crème Brulee for dessert. Our server was pleasant and attentive during our lunch stay. The atmosphere was romantic and quaint. We will definitely be back for more dates :)

My review is for my recent experience attending a baby's baptism celebration at The Cantina of this restaurant. First of all, the cantina is a cute event rental space for small gatherings. It's clean and nicely decorated inside with a bar and one restroom. The staff were very friendly and attentive. The menu had a great selection of pasta dishes for our group, and the pasta truly tasted authentic and homemade. The dishes had great flavor and were very filling as well! I would recommend this location for small group gatherings less than 30 people.

Terrific meal and wine! Don't miss "Wine down Wednesday", 1/2 off wine bottles under $100 - the Valpolicella Ripasso Classico was delicious, soft and smooth EZ to drink! Everything we ordered was delicious, from drink, apps to meals! Service was friendly, attentive and engaging to ensure our drinks and food were to our liking and enjoyed. Overall, 4.5 rated experience for me. We did not go hungry and Wednesday WINE special was great! Tonight we started with Calamari served with Marinara dip. Freshly prepared, 1 order was perfect to share! The Caesar salad was good, fresh and tasty. For dinners, the House-made Lasagna was excellent, Chicken Marsala wonderful, Lobster Fettuccini amazing (but would've ordered the Aurora sauce vs spicy Diavolo), and Baked Ziti plentiful! You won't go wrong with anything on the menu! Even their Brick oven Pizzas looked fantastic! This is definitely a restaurant to enjoy if you haven't been, plus they have a connected wine bar next door if you want a more upscale ambience ... but Dolce Vita was casual and perfect for us! Cheers, ENJOY!!!

UPDATE: Returned to try the gnocchi romagna and LOVED IT. Pine nuts are a great touch gnocchi was cooked perfectly.
