It’s a trendy place so the crowd was a little you get but there were families celebrating too. Everything we ordered was delicious but our service was a bit on the slow side. It took every bit of 2 hours for appetizers, main meal, coffee and dessert. Nice Italian place though - would recommend!

They called me a few hours before to confirm the reservation and asked if I had any decorations to bring. When we arrived, we found out the AC was broken and it was very hot in the restaurant (the hottest day of the summer so far, mind you). This was not mentioned to me when they called to confirm my reservation. Food was great as always but the service was VERY slow and it was not crowded at all. Drinks took 30 min to come out.

I was disappointed to see such a small brunch selection. I also was disappointed at how loud and noisy it was where we were seated. I thought the ambiance was nice but unfortunately the food and nose level made the experience subpar. I am not sure I will come back.

I’m truly sorry to hear that your pasta dish didn’t meet your expectations and that service was slower than it should have been. This is not the standard we strive for, and I appreciate you bringing it to our attention. We’ll be reviewing this with our team to ensure we’re consistently delivering the high-quality experience our guests deserve. We hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back for a much-improved visit. Best regards, Daniel Garza General Manager, Dolce Riviera
