Beachwood Mall, Legacy Village, kind of a best kept secret. Great food, but really makes things stand out in addition to the very cozy atmosphere is the amazing staff and team that all works as one to make the customer experience above and beyond. I’m a chef even stopped in to make sure everything was prepared Perfectly to our liking. Definitely a favorite plus plus Bod

Excellent Italian fare. Awesome best gnocchi I have ever had and fluffy fresh made Foccacia. We will return.

We were out celebrating my mom‘s 74th birthday. Everything went smoothly. They were able to accommodate our large party during the holidays and allowed us to use the private room, which was truly a Christmas gift because it allow my family to all sit together and fellowship Thank you.  our waitress was courteous and efficient.

Always love spending the evening at La Dolce Vita! I think you need one of those entryway door protectors. The cold wind outside came right inside…and it was really cold! Otherwise, a beautiful night. Can’t wait to return.

We were in Cleveland to see the symphony and made last minute reservations at Valerio's in Little Italy which is super close to Severance Hall. We were seated promptly and Michael, our server, was a delight. He took excellent care of us, rattled off the specials, and made great recommendations. We ordered the swordfish and the lamb shank and both were amazing. The swordfish was perfectly grilled and delicious. The lamb shank was very tender, falling off the bone, with gravy that was to die for. Both were reasonably priced and less than what we expected to pay. We will definitely go back.
