About this business

Fellini's classic 1960 film La Dolce Vita, or "The Sweet Life," is the inspiration for this Little Italy restaurant. But where Fellini focuses on the alienation of modern hedonism, the restaurant of the same name wisely focuses on authentic Italian food. Much of the menu is based around daily specials of fish, risotto and pasta, among other things. More permanent entrées include polo pomodoro, chicken in white wine with tomatoes, garlic and feta cheese; or vitelo di Verona, with veal topped by tomatoes, artichokes and... read more

This was on Groupon and we had never tried this restaurant, so was a little skeptical about trying it without haven't ever eating there, but this place was great! We did have to wait a moment to be seated, but this restaurant is open for reservation, but it wasn't a long wait. The waiter was very friendly, and came back to the table often to see how things were going with us, quick to fill our glasses back up. And the food, it was amazing! We are pizza eaters, so we decided to try the Venizia , which is the spinach and veal-... read more

We were in Cleveland so I could run the Rock n' Roll half marathon. I needed to find somewhere to carb load. What better place than Little Italy. We walked up one side of Mayfield and down the other looking at menus. We chose LA Dolce Vita. We were seated promptly. It did take a few minutes to get waited on but once the waiter took our order the service improved tremendously. They give you warm bread to start. It was warm & delicious - a wonderful mixture of salt and sour. It was a yummy treat for my hungry tummy. We ordered... read more

I've been here on Ladies' Night before several times in college, and really enjoyed it. You can't beat the deal, and the food and wine was always pretty good.

What a gem in the heart of Cleveland's Little Italy! Mr. Tarentino has given the dining public a slice of Italian life here in Cleveland. Amazing atmosphere, fabulous food and a very welcoming and gracious host proved the perfect venue for pre-theater dining. And by the way, the eggplant appetizer is incredible!!!!!

Group of four....did not know what to expect. Everything we ordered was very good. Only complaint we had was our salads were served on warm dishes. I prefer salad on a nice cooled plate.
