La Dolce Vita is, without a doubt, one of the best dining experiences I’ve ever had. From the moment we stepped in, it felt like we had stumbled across a hidden gem straight out of Italy — authentic, warm, and full of charm.
On our first night, we ordered the carbonara and tagliatelle, and both were absolutely exceptional. The carbonara in particular was next level — rich, creamy, perfectly seasoned, and clearly made with care and traditional technique. The tagliatelle was just as impressive, with fresh pasta cooked to perfection and a depth of flavor that left us speechless.
We were so blown away, we came back the very next night. Of course, we had to get the carbonara again — it was just that good. This time, we also tried the Diavola pizza, which was the perfect mix of spice, char, and authentic Italian-style crust. Everything was made fresh, with quality ingredients that really stood out.
What made the experience even more memorable was the lovely Italian couple who own the restaurant. The wife, in particular, was running the floor on her own and was absolutely ran off her feet — but you’d never know it from the service. She was calm, kind, and completely on top of everything, delivering a true 10/10 service with a smile.
La Dolce Vita isn’t just a meal, it’s an experience. We left full, happy, and already planning our next visit. If you’re lucky enough to be nearby, do yourself a favor and book a table — this place is...
Read moreThe pizza was without a doubt the most authentic Italian pizza I've ever experienced, the ingredients were top notch; the wine which was recommended to us was beautiful. They also recommended condiments as I had mentioned I'd wanted it spicy, and a spicy oil was provided as an accompaniment without me having to then request it. We give the utmost of compliments to the chefs.
The lady out front is a complete credit to the team; her English was perfect, (we're Brits so it certainly helped); her customer service in terms of being friendly courteous and making recommendations was amazing. The pinnacle of outstanding customer service. And she was doing it all alone, no other front-of-house staff yet she made everybody feel valued, comfortable and at-home.
I don't think I've ever had an experience before where it's been completely faultless; this may be my first. (But I'm being picky, so one thing to note is the Google opening hours were incorrect by 30 minutes, not a huge deal).
Thanks for an amazing meal for me and my partner on our first holiday...
