    Brought our family for Thanksgiving brunch and it was a great experience. The chef was out detailing how he prepared the amazing food at the buffet. He did some very special preparations that I’d never seen before. The staff was so kind and helpful too. Thank you for a great holiday Dolce Riviera, we will definitely come again!

    The food, drink and service were outstanding. We dinned while on a family trip with small kids to Texas over the Thanksgiving holiday; and they were so welcoming and accommodating; upon arrival they provided the boys a ball of pizza dough and a rolling pin to play with. Our server Edward had great recommendations and took great care of us until we walked out the door, offering to take our picture by their Christmas tree unprompted. We dinner out often and would rate this one of the top Italian restaurants we have been to; the food was so delicious. The atmosphere was memorable with a view of the skyline. Would highly recommend.
