- BBradVIPChicago / Illinois •5 reviews5.0Dined 1 day agoExcellent! Food, service, vale. We had a 6:30 resv on a recent Friday night and the place was immaculate. Was able to park very close. We learned that they have been open about 3 mths thus far so all is shiny and tasteful. Has a city vibe without the hassle. Nice bar set up and many dining tables and booths. Authentic delicious Italian. We learned that the owners are the chefs. We also learned that the balsamic vinnegar that is provided along with olive oil on the table is 15 year old aged. Was delicious with the home made 2 different types of bread provided. The spices and flavors of our meals were spot on. Zander, our server, was top shelf and very friendly. Definitely going back!More infoLa Dolce Vita Cucina - ChicagoPrice: Expensive• Italian• Portage Park•4.4
