The food tastes delicious, especially their lobster pasta. It's a small restaurant and packed when we were there. Parking is small however they have a valet to find you a spot. I definitely will come back. Great Italian food, great service with a great price range.

A little gem, pretty authentic Italian food. Had some good wine, food had great flavor, and the atmosphere was nice. Valet was included if you care about that sort of thing (we self parked).

Pesto was incredible and the cicchetti options were good. A bit expensive, but Wednesdays are half off wine bottles. Got the Italian 75 and it was good but a bit overpriced. Would go back!

This place has it all. Romance, hand picked drinks, homemade food and great service. We come often but this was a impromptu date lunch that we were able to make on open table. Though we were able to easily find tables.

We sat on the wine bar side, as this is where we normally dine. We had octopus appetizer, their homemade ficcata bread, ricotta appetizer, make your own pasta and cream brulee.

The octopus was atop amazingly flavored potatoes and accompanied by cooked artichokes. Simple delicious. Ricotta was good would have loved a side of extra toppings for when you dip into the ricotta as you take first layer in little time. My husband enjoyed his pasta choices. We both enjoyed the lovely cream brulee, however I will say the brulee part is very light and only in the center. But was a lovely way to end the meal.

Wow! If you like garlic, this is the place to go. My penne arrabbiata was the best I have enjoyed in years...aldente, garlicy, with a bit of a bite. The bruschetta was amazing, and the creme brulee light

Came by while waiting for car to be serviced at the dealership. Quiet vibes on a Saturday at 2 PM but the food did not disappoint. You can tell when the kitchen cares about food. Chicken Parm over angel hair pasta and Linguine + Clams! Sydney served us and she was awesome. Bring a date, the food speaks for itself, plus pretty decent happy hour.

I just had dinner at Dolce Vita, and it was outstanding. The chicken Parmesan was genius. They had put the marinara on the bottom, so it stayed crispy. The manager named Mike recommended An amazing wine that paired very well with the dinner. Overall, I have to say that dolce Vida is one of a kind one. Seriously one of the best Italian dinners I’ve had in a long time with amazing service and awesome atmosphere. again, I’d like to say thanks to Mike the manager for giving us an awesome experience. Highly recommended to any of that love great Italian cuisine.

Second time coming here, the food is great, the prices are really good for the quality of the food. Today Yuri was our server and he did an outstanding job, great service! The pastas are delicious, great appetizers and my kids love the pizza and the spaghetti with meatballs! The seafood fettuccine is superb. Definitely a hidden treasure in Nova, we will come back very often!!

It was a great opportunity to be a guest photographer for a wedding reception dinner party at this location. It is a beautiful set up and the valet parking is nice. With that, the food was great. There were many tasty description and it was tough to choose but I will say all the plates were empty. The safe was professional and they did everything they can do to make the evening perfect. The images only show samples of the appetizers so sorry for not sharing the main course because I was enjoying it.

Came to the restaurant for a wedding party hosted in the dining room next to the main building. The service was impeccable as well as the food (I wish I caught the two servers’ names but they were extremely hospitable). They were very attentive to our needs. I can only imagine what it’s like inside the restaurant. Based on the reviews, I’m sure it’s even better! Highly recommend and I will definitely eat here again!

2 people - 2 appetizers and 3 entrees.

We dont regret over-ordering one bit.

Everything was delicious. The vibe was perfect and the atmosphere was vibrant yet still private.

Only thing was parking lot is small, but complimentary valet is offered

Went for happy hour with a large group and had an excellent experience. All servers were very attentive and service was quick and accurate, even when we changed seats. The restaurant even let us bring in a cake from outside for a birthday with advance notice. The appetizers were so tasty and the happy hour specials made it even better! Definitely recommend!

Mom was my #VALENTINE and I decided to take her to lunch on Valentine's Day to Dolce Vita Italian Kitchen and Wine Bar!

We had a truly fabulous meal, which included Zucchini Fritte (Fried Zucchini sticks) as an appetizer, Veal Saltimbocca with a side of Fettuccine Alfredo, Ravioli Al Forno, Cannoli, and a great bottle of Gavi di Gavi wine!

It was my first time here, and I was amazed at all the authentic Italian items on the menu. The restaurant is also really charming... with fabulous murals of Rome and Tuscany in the main dining room. And upon entering, you're immediately greeted by a spectacular Pizza Oven, painted to look like the Bocca della Verita' (Mouth of Truth) ancient sculpture in Rome.

All of the staff were warm and inviting, and we had a great waiter named Oscar.

Veal Saltimbocca... SO YUMMY!
For those of you who've never had it before, it's a veal cutlet wrapped in prosciutto and topped with crispy sage leaves and melted provolone in a white wine sauce! It's so good, it leaps into your mouth- literally the translation of its name!!

A special highlight of the meal was having a fun conversation in Italian with Managing Partner Romano Rainoni. I think he was floored to have someone speak Italian to him in his wonderful little restaurant in the DC suburbs of Fairfax, VA. (Romano is a relatively new owner.. having joined sometime during the Pandemic. He's from Tarquinia, a beautiful beach town just outside of Roma.)

You should know that I lived and worked in Italy for nearly 5 years, so am very familiar with great Italian food. I complimented Romano on the delicious meal, and told him that it was easily as good as many of the high-end Italian restaurants in downtown DC (and also at much more affordable price points)! Romano told me about all the special Wine Dinners and Events that they are doing at Dolce Vita. I can't wait to go back and check them out!!

Dolce Vita has become our go-to, favorite restaurant. The food is great authentic italian food, the staff very attentive and friendly, ambiance is nice and we always get a table. I think it's a hidden gem in this area. I don't know how it took so long for us to find this place, but we frequent it often and always leave happy, well-fed and talking about what we are going to order next time we come. We spent NYE there with 2 other couples and had a wonderful time. We had great food, great service and enjoyed a relaxing dinner at a very reasonable cost.

Calvin was our server. Very personable and he took great care of us. Between the service and the food we had a delightful evening. Highly recommend.

Ambience is good and the server was nice enough to wish for our anniversary & give a free champagne. Food & drinks were overall fine. We had the pizza which was good but chicken entree could have been better. Crème brûlée was really good.

We love this restaurant and have gone there for Sunday family dinners for years. Our trip tonight did not disappoint. Excellent food and even better service - every time. Calvin was fantastic tonight and went the extra mile!

I had a wonderful family birthday dinner here. The venue is really nice, the staff friendly and the food tasted great.

Arriving here, you’ll notice parking is limited. If you come during busy hours you’ll have to pay for the valet parking (not sure how much it costs). There is a good amount of seating though, and a bar area.

There were plenty of food options, which I enjoyed. The calamari and tasca were delicious and came out in a reasonable time.

The pizza was delicious and I recommend trying the mediteranio pizza! If you end up getting a mixed drink make sure to mix it as the alcohol tends to be concentrated on top.

Looking forward to coming back!

Small and wonderful restaurant. Tried the Limoncello Sangria, Fig and Pig and Eggplant Parmesean. All were wonderful - and big portions so we have lots of leftovers. Staff is attentive and friendly. A great dinner choice.

My food experience was amazing here. My bruschetta was fresh and my Alfredo pasta was so good too. I stopped by here while waiting to get my car fixed near by. The bartender was nice and friendly. I forgot her name, but she knows all the locals. Treated me like family.
