Dolce Vita Italian - Bluffton

My husband and our two little boys dined here this evening. We were delighted. My boys are 5 and 7. They loved the food as did we. Our waiter was so pleasant and kind. I had the black and white ravioli with lobster and loved it. I think the hostess prefers adults and I understand since this is an elegant restaurant. Definitely would recommend. Jennifer Davis

We made a reservation for the same afternoon at 5:15. Made reservation at 12:00 same day. The owner, Joe, told me that if i were unable to make it that I needed to call back before reservation or I would be charged $25.00. I had to cancel because if something out of my control and called them at 3:30. The co owner was very rude and told me I would be charged $25.00 per person (2) because I had not called 24 hours ahead! I had not made the reservation 24 hours ahead. I made it 5 hours ahead. She was VERY rude and VERY disrespectful and hung up on me. Finally Joe responded and after him not giving me much time to talk, as he was shouting at me, he said he would cancel reservation. Not trusting him, I had to freeze my credit card! I will NEVER eat there. Rude and disrespectful owners!

Nasty, disinterested staff, mediocre food, not an especially worthwhile restaurant for Italian food. There are better in the area.

The entire experience is simply superb. Thanks Arlene and Joe, for all you do!

Me and my friends went for dinner. Everything we ate was absolutely delicious and we had great service. Arlene came to our table a couple of times to make sure everything was good. We will definitely go back!
