So Jersey shore and not in the best of ways. Very loud (OpenTable calls it "energetic." But it's LOUD.). The food was quite good, but the ambiance and the facility was RUN DOWN. This place needs a facelift and badly! The host/hostesses were absolutely lackluster and couldn't have cared less if we walked through the door. Really, the only upside was the food was good and I guess that's why we were there. Go back? Not in a hurry.

We have been coming to La Dolce Vita for over 15 years and this was not a typical experience. The burrata special was like a hard gummy ball and flavorless. Chicken entre was over cooked. Linquine with clams was really salty. It’s clear staff is tight - our servicer was lovely but handling too many tables. We hope this was a one-off because this is one of our local favorites.

We came for the happy hour before our reservations and we were told by a rude older women that there would be no happy hour on a holiday. This was not made clear on the website and she did not accommodate us in any way other than sitting us early for our dinner. We had drunk loud people at the table next to us, the more alcohol they got the louder they got. Def over served. Our cocktails were terrible. My stuffed salmon had a strange taste. Our server was rude and rushed. When he cleared our plates he seemed angry because it was done very loudly. The vibe of the restaurant was crass loud and sloppy. The window sill was dirty and rusty looking. Our friends first impression of the Jersey shore was not a good one. Will never go here again.

Service was excellent. House salad was uninspiring & in need of more ingredients. Main course was stuffed chicken and two raviolies. Ravioli was good but the chicken was well over cooked & tough as nails. The desert special we had was a lemon creme cake which was very good.

Very good restaurant right across the street from the boardwalk on Ocean Avenue. It has a full bar so no need to BYO. The food was excellent, I had the Branzino and it was filleted and very moist. Special requests were accommodated as was a request for seating area. I will be returning. Street parking only, which can be challenging

We had to sit outside because they overbooked so at our reservation time the tables were full They booked parties that filled the restaurant and ignored the open table reservation that I made 10 days in advance. So we sat in the cold just so we could eat within 1 hour of our reservation time . If when we called that morning to confirm they said can you come later or that they really couldn’t accommodate we could have done something different

The food was terrific but watch out for the prices...i was charged way too much and non of the prices matched what was on the website menu. :( in fact none of the prices made any sense...very wacky... also, i ended up paying for using a credit card when i paid cash. so watch out for that also...i should have paid more attention!

Food and service were fine and it was nice to see the beach across the street. However, after a large group left, the clean up of the table could not have been louder. The sound of banging dishes and silverware was unacceptable, in total disregard for other dinners.

Great food, but overcrowded & very noisy! Tried to rush us out which was very disappointing. One likes to relax & digest a good meal before the table is being reset by staff. We felt rushed & a customer should never feel like that! If we return it will be off hours.Hostess said they are redoing the restaurant after 20 years in business which is really needed. We were dining there when they first opened & we returned often. We were celebrating our 58th anniversary which we noted on Open Table reservations & selected this restaurant over other favorites. On a scale of 1 to 5 I rate this experience as a 3!!!

We have been to La Dolce Vita several times, despite living in Queens, NY. We have friends near Belmar and this is our “go-to”. Maybe not any more after our Easter dinner experience. We had a 5:00 reservation and when we got there, it was already packed and bustling; servers and bus people were running around like it was the last supper! We were told there’d still be a wait and we should have a seat at the bar. We all ordered drinks and waited about 20 minutes until we were seated. While at the bar, one particular server caught my because he seemed disorganized, disheveled and was moving like his hair was on fire! I hoped we wouldn’t get him; what were the odds? Apparently, the odds were 100% because that’s exactly who we got and it got worse from there. This guy was so wired, he could make coffee nervous. His demeanor completely detracted from the entire experience; from his pointing at each of us, asking “what do you want?” and then on to the next person. He was constantly stopping in the middle of something, saying “give me a minute!” and then off to somewhere else - constantly! He forgot to bring things we sled for several times and when he tried a few times to remove dirty plates, silverware, etc… from the table, was constantly dropping things either on the menu, which was still at the table, or on the floor. When bringing me a drink from the bar, it was spilling on the floor from the bar to the table! It was so bad, I had to speak to someone and after waiting more than 5 minutes at the hostess station, I asked someone where the manager was and then a young lady appeared(the same young lady I had just seen at the bar, laughing and talking with staff. I know she saw me standing there because I was looking at her, waiting for her to acknowledge my presence!). After I explained what happened, she asked what she could do to help and I suggested she speak to someone as to what COULD be done. Their solution was to change servers. We were already mid dinner so this..

This was our first visit, and it was exceptional and exactly the kind of dinner we were in the mood for. All staff were very alert and ready to take care of any request, the menu was varied and included enough choices that my husband and I could easily have several enough options, and our selected meals were wonderful! I hope we can enjoy this enjoyable find much more often.
