" I visited La Dolce Vita a few weeks ago and loved the pasta options they have. The fettuccine alfredo was creamy and delicious, while the service was friendly and efficient. It’s beautifully decorated inside, creating a lovely cultural vibe. For dessert, I had the cannoli which were also fantastic. If you’re looking for authentic Italian food, look no further; this place is a must-visit! " (*Curated Review*)

I am already looking forward to my next visit! " (*Curated Review*)

" Can't say enough good things about La Dolce Vita! This is the real deal when it comes to Italian dining. The food is authentic and made with love. The ambiance is welcoming and perfect for friends or families. Everything we ordered was delicious, especially the cannelloni. The service was prompt, and we left completely satisfied.

" Waited a long time for our food, but when it arrived, it was delicious! The risotto was creamy and flavorful. The restaurant has a really nice ambiance – perfect for relaxing after a long day. Would recommend La Dolce Vita for anyone looking for a comforting meal and a pleasant dining experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" La Dolce Vita could be the perfect spot for a cozy date night. The ambiance creates an intimate setting with soft lighting and welcoming decor. We ordered the ravioli and the seafood linguine. Both were enjoyable, though the linguine could have had more sauce. Our waiter was friendly and offered great wine recommendations. Overall, it was a delightful evening, and I would certainly recommend it for couples looking to enjoy a romantic meal. " (*Curated Review*)

" The atmosphere at La Dolce Vita feels like stepping into Italy. The decor is cozy, making it comfortable for groups or intimate dates. The food was enjoyable, and the cavatappi was cooked just right. However, the service could have been quicker. Overall, a lovely dining experience that I would recommend to friends! " (*Curated Review*)

" Overall not a bad option for Italian cuisine in La Jolla. The restaurant is beautifully set up, and the food was decent, although I expected more. I ordered the chicken fettuccine, which was rich and hearty but a bit too oily for my taste. The loaf of bread served was a nice addition to the meal. I would visit again for a casual meal but not for a special occasion. " (*Curated Review*)
