What Lorenza Bogan doesn't like about Dolce Vita:
Despite having a reservation and arriving on time, we still had an extended wait for a table. We were seated near the door and the people waiting to be seated were standing right next to us obscuring any view of ambiance we might have had. Once seated the service was terrible. They totally forgot to bring our food and once it arrived, it was cold and flavorless. This is one restaurant I will not be visiting again! View all feedback. What Darlene Walden likes about Dolce Vita:
We loved this place so much, we broke one of our own travel rules and ate there again the next night! Of the 8 entrees, 2 appetizers and 3 desserts we had, none disappointed. Incredible food and amazingly attentive service! View all feedback.

Lots of charm Franco’s pride and attention to detail added to the delicious experience!

Dolce Vita restaurant in Boston has received mixed reviews, with some guests expressing disappointment in the service and overall experience. Some complained about long wait times, cold and flavorless food, and rude service. However, other diners have raved about the incredible authentic Italian cuisine, attentive staff, and warm ambience of the restaurant. One guest even mentioned that the owner personally catered to their dietary needs and provided a memorable dining experience. Despite the varying opinions, it seems that Dolce Vita has a loyal following of patrons who appreciate the old-school Italian charm and delicious food. Whether it's celebrating special occasions or simply enjoying a meal with loved ones, Dolce Vita seems to have something for every type of diner.

The food was phenomenal, I really enjoyed the frutti di mare con diavolo. My friend had the Carbonara and said it wasn't exactly what he expected.
