Whilst lunchtime today, we were having a take out Pizza, the restaurant was clean and well presented The staff friendly and helpful. The Pizza was very good with a wonderful light base. WillDefinitely be back to eat in.

Lovely little restaurant, we went on a monday night, there was plenty of space with only 4 other tables being filled.The waitress kept us standing at the entrance for several minutes whilst she was dealing with a table, although she caught our glance, she didn't at all indicate or sign she was aware of us and would be over in a minute so felt awkward just standing there. Other than that, the service was OK , she didn't ask if we wanted any more drinks when delivering food and wasn't as attentive as I would have appreciated, so only 3 stars for customer service. However, what saved the review was the food! OMG, the calamari fritte was by far the best calamari I have ever tasted, in previous meals out at other restaurants i have found it normally it comes over fried and tasteless, this though was full of flavour, cooked to perfection and came with the nicest tartar sauce. My wife had the garlic bread (which I may have stole a slice) and was crisp and flavoured to perfection. We both went for pizzas for main, we both were very impressed with them, tasted like true Italian pizza. The base had the perfect crisp to it, not all soggy etc, the toppings were plentiful and flavoursome, I had the meat house special, and it hit the spot with the perfect amount of heat.If we are in the New Forest again we would certainly visit this restaurant again!

Went for dinner to Dolce Vita with friends and the whole dining experience was wonderful. From the warm welcome, to the lovely ambience of the restaurant and then the delicious food. Its a varied menu and every person in our party of 6 loved their chosen dish. I highly recommend this lovely restaurant when you visit Lyndhurst or the surrounding area.

Authentic Italian gem hidden of Lyndhurst busy high street. Gorgeous food in a stylish atmosphere. Perfect for that special lunch as well as a romantic supper.

We visited on a Sunday evening. Service was prompt and friendly. The menu had a lot of options, and most of the mains came with fries, salad or veg as a side. The only minor criticisms are that both of our mains (veal and chicken) had a little too much sauce and the dessert options were quite limited. However, we enjoyed the meal overall.

We had a very nice meal here tonight. It was early and we popped in on the the off chance that we could be seated as we had been travelling around most of the day. We were greeted warmly and enjoyed a pizza each and my husband had a panna cotta which we all ended up enjoying too!! All in all, a great family-friendly restaurant.

What a wonderful find. Absolutely delicious food, great value for money and really friendly staff. Have to say one of the best Italians we have had in years

Spending a weekend away, we came across this restaurant purely by chance and booked for a Saturday evening.Greeted warmly, we were shown to our table and found the restaurant to be stylish, beautifully presented, modern and full of atmosphere, with a constant flow of diners livening the atmosphere as the place filled up.The menu was, well, typically Italian, (isn't that why you go there) and although portion size was a little 'suspect', the quality and flavour more than made up for this and my wife and I enjoyed some of the best food and service that we've had anywhere, with our respective pasta sauces, (bolognaise and al salmone), beyond excellent.Staff were super friendly, service was outstanding, the food was heavenly and we had a wonderful evening, but the test of any restaurant relates to whether we'd return and on this occasion, the answer is, in a heartbeat. Highly recommended!!
