: A homey atmosphere along with home cooking, as you might envision it would be in Italy, is just what the sweet life at Dolce Vita is all about. Start with toasted garlic bread and an order of calamari, and don't expect the fried version; instead, this kitchen’s take is sautéed with onions and green peas (don't knock it till you've tried it). Spaghetti carbonara is a must-have, made with a creamy egg sauce. We also suggest the pollo Dolce Vita, a juicy chicken breast sautéed with porcini mushrooms in a light white wine demi-glaze. Meat-lovers will consider selections ranging from a veal chop and osso buco to a grilled New York sirloin and rack of lamb. Friendly owner Franco Graceffa is a native of Sicily and he takes his food and restaurant seriously, constantly interacting with guests to ensure a good experience. You'll leave feeling like a part of his family. |
