Review La Dolce Vita - Ostend

Had a small family dinner for the five of us. We love pasta as a family and I cook pretty decent pastas myself with homemade sauce. This was out of this world. Particular loved the October special and the three meat ragu.

Popped in here for a bite with a large group yesterday. Such a pleasant surprise! Authentic Italian and great portion sizes for all meals ordered. Staff were friendly and meals came out quickly. Try their tiramisu gelato as well, yummy. Thank you for having us La Dolce Vita!

Top service, quick, polite and helpful. The store is clean and well laid out with a great atmosphere. Will definitely come back 👍👍

Best gelato/icecream in Waiheke!! Beautiful authentic Italian food. Their salads are fresh and yummy, so the pizza and pasta. Service is great and quick. This is a local gem. Me and kids love this place :)

The best Italian food I’ve had in my four years in New Zealand! Lasagna was outstanding!! I’ll definitely be back!

We loved eating at La Dolce Vita! Thank you so much for being happy to make vegan friendly food. The pizza with eggplant and vegan cheese and the pasta with olives were super delicious! The lemon gelato was also particularly refreshing. We also got the pasta marinara, carrot salad and mango, vegan chocolate and passionfruit gelato, which were yummy.

Loved our classic Italian meals. Salads were beautiful. Finished with gelato, perfect.

We ordered a beef lasagna, their Monthly special Pizza and the beetroot salad. Delicious food, full of flavour and authentic Italian food! Also, great customer service. A place not to be missed if you are planning to visit Waiheke. This little gem is one of the Local’s best choice.

Beautiful food, I had the cannelloni and the beef lasagna, good portions and were delicious, definitely I will get back😊

I love the vegetarian slice pizza. Super tasty, I really miss this type of pizza. Cozy and comfortable place. Their coffee was great too.
