A Great Dolce Vita Review!

At Dolce Vita on Sanibel Island, we want everyone to experience the “sweet life” and we strive to make each and every visit to our restaurant an enjoyable, memorable one.  Occasionally, word filters back that we have not only succeeded but surpassed expectations….

The following is an excerpt from a recent trip report posted to the BestofSanibelCaptiva.com Message Board:

“…decided to eat at Dolce Vita for our last meal.
oh
my
god

It was awesome. The Owner welcomed us and spoke french all the time. The service was perfect. The food too.

And the best part:
After our meal the owner offered us three glass of sparkling white wine, and then other drinks when we were ready to leave. He was so friendly, spoke stories about the restaurant, studies in France and also about the people that come visit his restaurant. We had plan to leave at around 8 pm MAX because we had to drive back to Orlando to catch our flight the next morning. However that did not happen. We left at 9 PM, after a couple of drinks with this fabulous person.

the food:
we had the lobster bisk [sic], which was perfect

 

 

 

 

 

 

Both Audrey and Julie had bahamian lobster tail

 

 

 

 

 

 
and I tried their version of the…snapper, which was the best meal I had on the island this year:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Here are the pictures of us three.. sad to leave but happy.. after a perfect trip
