La Dolce Vita - Ottawa

The freshly baked bread is I think my favourite thing as well as the Cesar salad which features double smoked bacon and croutons made from house made fresh bread. Just so good! Also best pizza crust in the city. Service is great. The patio was packed but food still came out in a reasonable amount of time. Highly recommend!

As a person with Celiac disease I'm used to eating simple somewhat bland meals at restaurants, and forget dessert unless your fine with some fresh fruit or a sorbet. I had one of my most amazing meals last night. Dinner started with fried calamari then a ceaser salad with croutons! Main course lasagna with garlic bread and to finish it of an amazing tiramisu! I thought I was in heaven. The owner and chef came out to speak to me and reassure me everything was gluten free and they take all necessary precautions to avoid cross contamination. Thank you to our amazing waitress Chantal who made the experience even more memorable�

Went to La Dolce Vita this evening! It was amazing and so was the service. The owner and chef came to see if we were celiac because we ordered from their amazing gluten free menu! He wanted to know how I liked it and wanted to also tell me about their GF dessert menu. They have cheesecake and make their own tiramisu from scratch! They also do not charge extra for anything gluten free and are aware that a lot of other places do but wants us as Celiacs or gluten free to feel normal highly recommend!!!!

Compliments to the chef! I I have to watch my salt intake, so I called the chef ahead of time and mentioned that I can't have any salt in my food. I ordered a pasta and even without the salt it was amazing! My kids had the 5 cheese pizza and they loved it!!! Thank you to the chef and staff for working around the menu to meet the dietary needs of their customers!

My husband and I recently went to La Dolce Vita for date night. We arrived shortly before 5 (when it opens) and was welcomed graciously into the restaurant. We were pleased that the owner asked if we needed the gluten free menu which was a very nice change of pace since most restaurants we go to we have to ask for a gluten 'friendly ' menu. We had the stuffed mushrooms, chicken parmesan and manicotti and every single thing was made well, tasted great and hot. My husband had the gluten free Tiramisu for dessert. That too was delicious. As we neared the end of our meal the chef came out to check on things, I really appreciate that level of service. We will be returning soon.
