The food was very good and the service was excellent. We had a great time the only small pitfall is the price of the meals were a little higher than expected.

We drove 20 miles from Ashburn to get here. Food was “lick the plate” delicious. Our waiter was very good however. It took 40 minutes to be served our entrees. Waiter told us it’s because takeout is prepared by same chef as fine dining and they were getting crushed on a Friday night with takeout. My wife noted the party seated after us was being served before us. Not sure why we had to wait like 20 minutes after a salad and bread course to get the main entrees. They do serve some of the best in Italian Fare.

So nice to finally get out and enjoy a good meal. We appreciate you making our evening special.

Our search for our neighborhood Italian spot has ended. This is OUR spot! We have driven by many times and finally gave it a shot on Valentines and wish we had tried years ago. It was a wonderful experience start to finish. Place was jumping which was great to see and the wine bar had such a great vibe. Riley our server made it so much fun (we have small kids so don't get out that much) and had great recommendations. Appetizers, salads, and entrees were all excellent (better than anything we've had in DC and half the price). Great portions and everything was cooked to perfection. And VERY reasonable - 3 glasses of wine and 3 courses for two was barely more than $100! Don't make the mistake we did try this neighborhood gem ASAP!

Whether lunch for one or a dinner celebration with many, Dolce Vita is always consistent. Good neighbor restaurant my family and I enjoy!

First time here and was quite pleased with the food. Excellent service throughout our meal. Though some diners down from us spoke loud and obnoxious, we had a wonderful time and will return!

It was simply amazing

The food was delicious, and the service was exceptional!

Great fresh pasta. Calamari was best we have had in a while. The Alfredo sauce was a little bland but the Americana pizza was spot on.

Great service and food! Excellent wine choices every time I’ve dined here!

Great staff! Good food.

The service was excellent, the food was good but not great and well proportioned, but the prices were really quite high. I've had better meals at Carrabba's for less than half the price. Not a bad experience just considerable more than we expected to pay for the quality of the food.

Delicious foods. We did indoor seating. Workers are all wearing masks. They are all nice and friendly! Will recommend

The food, the food, the food...... definitely the food. It ruined our Christmas Eve dinner.
Completely bland (all 3 dishes). One of my guests was served undercooked chicken (it’s hard to undercook breaded chicken)
The pasta seemed like it had been blanched last week and reconstituted prior to serving it.
The cream Prosecco sauce in my dish was more like heated heavy cream added to the plate without a single grain of salt, pepper or garlic.
Not sure what happened to this place, food used to be decent. Oh well, is off my list now.

Wonderful food and service. Will definitely return.

The evening was perfect. Food was fantastic. Waiter was amazing and we thoroughly enjoyed everything.

We came in for an early Christmas Eve dinner. We were the only family in the wine bar area which always perfect for COVID precautions. The service and the food were outstanding.

Very nice little Italian restaurant with some very good dishes at a reasonable price. Friendly staff.

Always perfect!

Excellent!

They opened the regular dinning area and it was bright, loud, and our server rushed us through dinner and tried to up sell us on everything.

Been here many times and today food was way off. Everything came out cold and didn’t taste good. Could have be a different cook/chef for lunch hours.

Food and service outstanding
Outdoor heaters

Cannot recommend the food here, it is bland. The dishes are not presented authentically and lack true flavor. The servers are very nice though.

Its been a while. Used to go quite frequently when i lived close

The food was beyond superb snd the service was fabulous

Glad you are open and surviving in these crazy times

Late birthday celebration

We have been going to Dolce Vita for many, many years and the food keeps getting better! Our server Jose is fantastic and has been there for a long time as well. His suggestions are spot on.. I asked about the scallops or one of the specials and he steered me toward the scallops. They were cooked perfectly, accompanied by broccoli i and butternut squash polenta..heaven! Another in our party had the snapper special which was a beautiful presentation and she said it was very good. Others had pasta dishes, all were served piping hot . A great evening with great food and friends!

Pandemic restrictions requiring tent and outdoor dining expose diners to considerable traffic noise, but food quality and service adequately compensate.

Night out with my daughter

Great lunch

The food and service were very good. Only problem was that it took 20 minutes or more past our 7.30 reservation for seating which was except able but when 9.30 came around the staff opened the doors in 40 degree weather to bring chairs in from outside and left them open until we said something. Would have been nice not to feel like we were being rushed out. Overall a good night though.

Always a good, authentic Italian meal and wonderful service! We love it here!

Great food. Large choice of wines. Great service. Id definitely go back

Food yummy; salad with figs delicious1

Nice set up outside. Waiter was a touch over worked but did a nice job. They have a reasonable priced wine menu with some nice choices. The portion and price was very good. The quality of food was good. We will be going back.

Always fantastic

Good and staff are exceptional

Overall good food and wine but for the price point, service feels more like a diner than fine dining.

Love the outdoor seating. Food was delicious and portions are always perfect.

Great experience. They never fail to deliver great food and service.
