Roberto's Dolce Vita

Have to share the experience that my family had here. Some pros and cons. Let me just say, I rarely leave negative reviews on anything and this is a first for me. For the pros. The food was amazing. Everybody loved everything. Chef was great. Our waitress was attentive and very pleasant. As for the reservation aspect. This was our first time in LBI, traffic was a bit more than we anticipated. We were late and called ahead. When we got there the lady, hostess perhaps owner, not very welcoming and immediately made it know to my husband we have to leave by 650 because we are late. Which we understood and wouldn't dispute because we were late, but there is a way to communicate such in a more pleasant manner. My mother then went back into the restaurant a separate time, (since we were seated outside) and then she was told from a male worker perhaps owner, that we had to leave by 720. Again, we didn't mind and didn't dispute it the first time nor the second time,, because we were late and we would be accommodating but there is definitely a better way to go about this and their times frame weren't the same from the both of them. We felt rush for sure, a little to intense of an environment. Probably wouldn't go back because of that, but food and waitress were awesome.5 stars for food and waitress

One of the best restaurants on LbI if not the best. Place is a gem. Fresh pasta and great bread. BYOB is nice as well.

My family and I have come to roberto for years and they have never disappointed! fantastic, authentic, Italian eating and a personal that makes them feel like family. they would definitely recommend!

Large Italian, on the finer side of the restaurant in lbi. always on the list to go at least once in summer. it is always a special night out, with great eating, byob, wonderful service and love to detail. the prices are so fair, so it can be approximated and they feel as if they were worth it. the owner is reasonable if he makes his menu and his pricing, while also ensuring that every dinner is done with care. I've never been disappointed by robertos, you go out and say it. That was wonderful.

We enjoyed our meal here. we had a reservation and sat right away. our server and busboy were attentive. we both ordered from the specials and they didn't disappoint. my man had roared, stuffed cloves over pasta and I have auberginenparmasean. both were delicious! everything from brot, sangria, appetizers and dessert was delicious.
