Great food, service and ambience. We tried this place for brunch. We had the brunch carbonara and cannoli french toast. Both were delish! Highly recommend!

Re-opened 2 years ago, Dolce Riviera is known for the Italian food and scenic ambiance (IG worthy). We came from after work to relax. The staff was friendly and knowledgeable. The food from the happy hour was delicious and affordable. They were welcoming, and did not rush us.

I made a reservation for a group of 10 to celebrate my mom's birthday. We arrived early and were offered to be seated. Our waiter was very nice, & everyone loved their food. The ambiance was great! I would definitely love to visit again!

Had dinner here on a Wednesday evening - not too packed but glad we made a reservation as it was comfortably full. The bread provided as an appetizer is fantastic - fluffy with a bit of garlic and the oil and Parmesan on top is amazing. We ordered the beef carpaccio as an app, the seared sea bass and gnocchi with steak as entrees. Everything was well prepared and delicious. Overall we were highly satisfied with our meals, including our waitress Misty, and are already planning to return to check out the happy hour (bar only).

I recently celebrated my wife's birthday at this Italian restaurant , and it was a delightful experience from start to finish. The restaurant is incredibly charming, both inside and out. The ambiance is warm and inviting, with cozy, intimate decor that makes you feel right at home. We started our meal with the calamari appetizer, which was perfectly cooked and deliciously crisp. For our main courses, I had the Fettuccine Bolognese, which was rich and flavorful, while my wife enjoyed the Lasagne Al Forno, which was also good . Both dishes were well-prepared and truly satisfying. To top off the evening, the staff surprised us with a special dessert to celebrate my wife's birthday. This thoughtful gesture added a sweet and memorable touch to our dining experience. Overall, Dolce Riviera provided us with wonderful food and a lovely atmosphere for a special occasion. We'll definitely be returning for another visit!

I have only been to this restaurant for brunch and it has the most perfect ambiance. This place is perfect for a girls brunch, family brunch, or even a date. I would make a reservation and request the patio if possible which is covered and decorated with flowers. The service is quick and the food is good as well. I have been here a few times and I think the perfect order is the Lemon Ricotta pancakes with a side of the potatoes. They also have so many drinks here, I have had a few, but I do think the star of everything I have had so far are the pancakes still. They also have complimentary valet, so there is no need to stress about parking.

An absolute staple restaurant in Dallas. Everything from the ambiance, to the cocktails, to the food, and the service was awesome. A few recommendations: - Burrata - Beef Carpaccio - Truffle Pasta - Bolognese Pasta You can't go wrong here! Everything was pretty good. We really enjoyed the outdoor patio section with hundreds of lemons hanging from the ceiling. Overall, I will definitely be back.

Overall this was a great experience for a girls night. The decor was adorable, the tables were big enough to have multiple dishes out at once, and our service was fantastic. Our waiter was great about answering our questions and giving recommendations, although we were a little confused about why they can put any protein other than chicken in the gnocchi, which my friend ordered and loved. My butternut squash risotto was very filling and a great portion size. I definitely have left overs for lunch later today. It also wasn't so heavy that I felt over stuffed. Highly recommend a little Parmesan on the top to round out the flavors. I paired with with a glass of Sauvignon blanc.

Solid brunch spot!! you pay for the aesthetic but the quality is definitely there with these elevated dishes. We got the lemon ricotta pancakes ($14), prosciutto and eggs ($19) and the brunch carbonara ($24). All were good with decent portion sizes. Will say the carbonara at taverna is better, bigger, and cheaper- but the other items were creative in their flavor. The pancakes were amazing!! The lemon was so subtle in a good way and it wasn't too creamy. Would recommend this spot for a special occasion brunch on the pricier side (compared to other popular spots in Dallas) since the service was efficient and attentive.
