    Nice atmosphere, attentive waiters and reasonable prices. Shrimp Fettuccini Alfredo was excellent. Edit: Enjoyed our meal so much we stopped in again a few days later and had a meat lovers and a mushroom pizza, both of which were top notch.

    We were seated near the kitchen while the restaurant was not busy. Poor location for seating. We brought our own wine and when I asked for the corkage fee, the manager inspected our bottle for some time, and then told us $300 pesos. He was looking at our wine too long instead of serving us promptly. Manager is over pretentious and not focused on client experience. Food was served and the pizza was average and the chicken parmigiana was average. Not a great experience here and we will not return. Many better restaurants with better service in the area.

    The food is amazing! Truly different from other so called "italian restaurants " Food here really is something special. The spaghetti al pesto is the best we've ever had!!! Cocktails are great, especially margaritas on the rocks. Erything is just perfect 👌

    Be aware that the prosciutto and fungi pizza is actually ham. The waiter explained that thats how they di it in this place. But if I want they can get me, with extra charge prosciutto... if it's in the menu prosciutto they should give prosciutto. Otherwise call it ham and fungi pizza...

    Amazing food. Have tried Lasagna, cannelloni, dolce salad and focaccia bread. Delicious and fresh! Nice wine list as well. A couple of the young wait staff were so friendly and helpful! Will recommend and will definitely be back!

    Very pleasant spot for a late afternoon nosh. Eduardo,our very competent waiter, gave us suggestions for special off menu seafood dishes which we enjoyed greatly. Very reasonable prices. The cerveza was ice cold and the seafood was perfectly prepared. All in all, well worth every peso.

    Very good food. Had the Fettuccini with shrimp. Was already chowing down and realized I forgot to take a picture. Had fried calamari and shrimp, and a great fresh salad. Great service.

    Did a take out order. They prepared it in 15 minutes and were very attentive when I arrived. Loved the Chicken Parm and the Fungi Pizza. Will return to eat inside this lovely restaurant.

    Want to start by saying the food was delicious! The hostess was wonderful. Our server could have spent a little more time at our table. Gave us the feeling that he didn't want to be bothered. But toward the end he decided to be a little more interested in us because the bill was being paid which would include his tip. I decided to tip the hostess and bartender 20% of our bill and he received 10% I had the Seafood Pasta dish and added extra muscles, absolutely delish. Sister had the Lasagna. Salads were very fresh. I will definitely return 👍

    This is the 3rd facility with the same name in Puerto Vallarta. The staff was very good. The ambience was ver good. The food was very good. The cocktails were very good. The music was not too loud. Only draw back was we got paper napkins. There were several tables laid out for large groups. Good for a quiet evening. No too expensive.

    Service is excellent, food is delicious, nice Italian environment, very reasonable prices. Among others, salmon is very good, pastas are home made, all pizzas are good. They have valet parking.

    This was our second time dining here. The food is fantastic! Service is top-notch and is a beautiful calming atmosphere.

  • 5/5 Marbella C. 8 months ago on Google
    We really enjoyed our night at this place. The food is excellent, pizza, calamari, spaghetti or New York we enjoyed everything. The drinks are awesome as well. The staff are very attentive. It’s a very nice classy place, I will definitely be coming back.

  • 5/5 Ameena P. 8 months ago on Google
    i've been here three times and it's been great/consistent each visit- it's across the street from where i stay. first time solo in May: ordered the meat-stuffed tortellini with tomato sauce. it was tasty but the serving size was too small so that was disappointing! came with delicious garlic bread but I still wanted more pasta. for dessert they had a special chocolate lava cake served with vanilla ice cream which i hope they put on their regular dessert menu!! second visit with my friend for a late lunch: she ordered the linguine scolglio which she really enjoyed. i didn't want meat at the time so i ordered the spaghetti al pesto which was good for what it was. they gave us bread with balsamic vinegar and olive oil- it was good but not comparable to the garlic bread. it was my birthday so they gave us cannolis topped with chocolate ice cream. i enjoyed the dessert- it had nuts so my friend couldn't eat it because she is allergic. third visit solo in July: carpaccio bellagio was delicious and fresh! penne al formaggi was amazing too- i added shrimp. so far it's my favorite pasta dish here.

  • 4/5 Benjamin M. 3 months ago on Google New
    Good food. A bit pricey. Waiters gave me food I never intended on ordering because I guess I didn’t understand them. That’s my fault but I feel like they could have confirmed a bit better. It felt like they were just trying to get me to spend a little bit

  • 5/5 Bruce H. 8 months ago on Google
    We were pleasantly surprised by this modern and well appointed restaurant. Advertising itself as a pizzeria, this location is so much more with well trained wait staff and a much broader menu than just pizza. We were a group of 4 with a reservation - very necessary in this popular location. Service was prompt and very professional. Food was reasonably priced for this level of restaurant and of good quality. The only negative was the very loud soccer match on every TV. We still had a good time and will go again.

    La Dolce is simply outstanding and we couldn’t be happier with our experience there. We went for dinner with our two teenagers. Firstly the restaurant is beautiful inside - I loved the ambiance. The menu has great variety and is reasonably priced. We ordered a couple of pasta dishes and a couple of pizzas and everything was delicious. The pizzas especially were fabulous…thin crust and plenty of toppings. Our server was attentive and friendly. He suggested tiramisù for dessert which was another winner. I hope to go back before we leave PV this time but if not, we will definitely return next time we are here!

  • 5/5 Alex R. 3 years ago on Google
    1st time trying this place and I will definitely be going back, just recommend if you like sauce they are a little scarce on it, pizza was still amazing just needed a little more sauce! The atmosphere was stunning, clean and very well decorated! Be back again for sure!

  • 5/5 Ashley P. 2 years ago on Google
    This is a must visit restaurant!! This place is super cute. It’s a great size even if you’re dining with a large party. We had six people for dinner. The service was solid. Our food came out really quick too. And the FOOD…!! It’s perfection. Our entire group couldn’t have been happier with our selections. The pizzas are delicious. We ordered the margarita pizza and a friend got the Fungi pizza. It’s everything you want from your pizza. Crust…. On point… plenty of cheese and toppings. We were headed out after dinner or would have taken one to go! Our group also ordered the Tortellini and Chicken Alfredo. It’s just everything you’d want from a vacation dinner. We were very pleased with all of our decisions. Oh and the prices!!! I think my whole meal with drinks was $18 American. Can’t go wrong here. We will be visiting again before we leave!! Thanks for the great experience and see you soon!!

    Enjoyed my salmon meal and husband loved his pizza. Planning to come back late October with family. Our waiter was so friendly. Very concerned about meeting our needs. I was a little disappointed because they don't have eggplant parmesan.

  • 5/5 Danna G. 2 years ago on Google
    The place was totally clean, the decoration was immaculate, the service was fast and efficient. Everyone was nice. The food was delicious and the portions were good.

  • 5/5 Kimberly P. 3 years ago on Google
    This place is not only located in the center of everything but it is clean. We were there during Covid and they made us felt pretty safe. All staffs are friendly, everyone is wearing mask, before we sat down they asked us to sanitizer our hands and take our temperature. The cover patio have a lot of air flowing. Food is good and reasonable price. I had sangria and it was okay. Overall is a great place if you are craving for Italian food.

  • 4/5 Brandi T. 4 years ago on Google
    Service and atmosphere was wonderful.! Pizza was even better and the dolce salad was great as well. A little too much dressing so would suggest it on the side. Ordered a Cabernet Sauvignon with pizza. And was too cold but they obviously need to keep wine in fridge in this climate. Could purchase a wine cooler to regulate. But the experience was lovely and the good was delicious!

  • 4/5 Bob 4 years ago on Google
    Nice restaurant with both inside air conditioning and outside seating. Food and service was good but not the menu selection they have at their restaurant on the malecon.

  • 5/5 Amber S. 2 years ago on Google
    Great food, service and atmosphere. I wish I had discovered this place earlier, I would have bought food to go to eat back at our condo. They could accommodate for gluten free and were knowledgeable of how to prepare gf food for celiacs. My daughter didn’t have to sit there envying everyone else’s food 😁👍🏻

  • 5/5 Mario A. 1 year ago on Google
    We tried three different plates and loved every bit of each dish! Prices were very reasonable. I finished with a tiramisu which was divine! We will go back!

  • 5/5 Christine H. 2 years ago on Google
    Fabulous service great food. Lovely setting. Highly recommended.

  • 4/5 Michelle D. 1 year ago on Google
    Nice Italian restaurant. Pet friendly. The one valet was wonderful. Seems like his boss was trying to get more money out of the Americans. The valet said $50 pesos and his boss said it's like $5.00 which is double. Food was good. Calamari was good and not over cooked. Pasta penne was kind bland but still hot and good. Waiter was MIA a bit because we were outside in the hallway because we had our dog. So overall good. The stars in the trees were my favorite part of dinner. Love the atmosphere.

    Awesome place with great food and excellent services. Everyone was nice and polite and always available for your needs. The food was excellent done well in presentation and taste. We went back twice and was not disappointed. Great for lovely romantic evening or with the family.

  • 5/5 Luis (. 1 year ago on Google
    Simply the best restaurant in PV. Great taste, size and price. We had the best experience with our kids, the chef/owner came to our table to verify everything was fine. We loved it and highly recommend it if you like a clean, modern, and family friendly restaurant. Valet parking was great too.

  • 5/5 Irina G. 1 year ago on Google
    Probably, the most beautiful of Dolce Vita restaurants in PV. Very spacious and wonderfully decorated! Good for big family dinners) vibe is super friendly and you can feel Italian hospitality there Food is pretty good. I'd recommend to focus on pasta - any kind of it is amazing. Meat was a bit over seasoned up to my taste.

  • 5/5 Mike M. 1 year ago on Google
    Our group shared a pizza, which was very tasty, as an appetizer. The atmosphere and the staff were very inviting. We also ordered four Italian main dishes and all were generous sized portions and delicious. Want to go back just for their pizza. The prices were reasonable based on environment, location and dishes.

  • 5/5 Simon B. 2 years ago on Google
    This restaurant is amazing, splendid food, amazing service, beautiful environment, good price. We had one of the most delicious experiences in this restaurant. It is a must-go when you are visiting Puerto Vallarta. Btw, we could not resist the temptation to say goodbye to Puerto Vallarta without coming back one more time and we did it and OMG! Amazing again!
