Tasty food and very attentive service. Chilled plates for cold appetizers, warmed plates for hot appetizers. Chilled glasses for the white wine. Food selection and wine list were good. Specials of the day were excellent. Reasonable prices. Overall - very good experience. Would come back.

Even though its located in Cancun Centro its well worth the trip. The food is consistently great and the service is the BEST in Cancun. All the Italian dishes are made from fresh ingredients. Don't waste your time going to any other Italian restaurant!

Highly recommend La Dolce Vita in Cancun. Food and service were first rate. The waiter was very attentive to our needs. We got to visit and talk with the owner. At the end, the owner shared a drink with us.

We and another couple went to La Dolce Vita during our anniversary trip to Cancun and were amazed. We started dinner with incredible appetizers so fresh and light worth considering just having appetizers (you have to have the calamari), but there is so much more.

The food, the portions and the staff were ALL great. The bread that came with dinner was delicious, and the staff kept bringing it fresh from the oven. The pasta is made in-house and is great. The manager even brought us a free drink at the end of dinner. I highly recommend!

We ate here on our last night in Cancun. Our appetizers and dinner were phenomenal! Unfortunately, our desserts were a disappointment.

We stayed at the Fiesta Americana Coral Beach and rented a car so that we could go wherever we wanted on our vacation. While we did eat at some of the restaurants close to our hotel, we decided to go downtown to try this place. We had the Fodor's book and used it to pick our restaurants. It got very...
