Villa Dolce

My friends and I decided to visit during Winter Restaurant Week. For starters I had the Tomato Bisque Soup, which was full of flavor and included croutons and a little bit of cheese in top. My entree was Braised Lamb Shoulder w/whipped potatoes, roasted vegetables and lamb demi Glace. The lamb was good and tender with hardly any fat. The veggies were good, but would've liked more. For dessert I had the Flourless Chocolate Torte, and that was very good. All around good experience and would like to go back and try other items on the menu.

It is no secret why this local restaurant has been around for as long as it has. Atmosphere, service, and food and drink creativity and quality all contribute to its well-earned reputation. Best for groups of 4 or less, ideal for couples on a first date or 101st date, the dining area offers a cozy and intimate setting with low noise level. One of our favorite places.

Trying new restaurants during Restaurant Week can result in finding that special dining experience which results in thoughts of repeating. That was our experience at Villa Dolce. My house cocktail (Lavender) was perfection, the burrito appetizer subtle and tasty, the lamb main very filling and the creme brulee outstanding. The atmosphere was cozy and very busy, with the waitstaff friendly and capable. My dining companions were also pleased.
