    Everything was almost literally perfect, the food and the aesthetic of the restaurant but the music is too loud. It's extremely loud, it sounds like a club and I hate clubs for this exact reason. I probably wouldn't be back for this reason. Five star restaurants need a classy vibe not twerking music. Lol #Firethedj

    Charged for item that was returned even when they agreed to take it off. Workers meant well but need training in providing service. The food was good, though.

    First time there. Every thing was amazing and date night was a success! We will be going back. We went early and basically had the place to ourselves! Food exceeded our expectations! Staff was on point. 👏🏽

    The people were very loud. The place smelled like a restroom. The food was mediocre for the price. Also I could do without the dove. The waiter also was not very accurate or knowledgeable. I received the wrong drink as well. We also had to repeatedly ask for the drinks.

    Everything about Doves last night was truly uplifting. The service, the host, the food, and the atmosphere were all incredibly inspiring. Simply exceptional. I felt warmly welcomed from the moment we arrived until we departed the facility.

    I came for my birthday and it exceeded my expectations! I did come for the snapper but it was not available because they get their fish fresh from a fishermen, which I love. So I tried the Sea Bass and it was exceptional!!! I cleaned my plate. We also tried the shrimp, etoufee, beef sliders, calamari and ribs. Everything was a 10 out of 10z the servants were all exceptional and the manager stop at our table and checked in on us as well! We came early around 630pm so we were able to sit a little longer than expected but when the next party has arrived and you are past the time limit they politely reminded us and helped us. It was a great experience and will be back.

    The service was just as excellent as the food. DeVance was an excellent server and the experience from the hostess to the manager was awesome. The food was all very flavorful and the steak melted in my mouth. You need to make time to go to this restaurant!
