La Dolce Vita - Hope

This restaurant is out of business. It has been closed permanently. There is another business in this location now.

I stopped by this place on my way home to kamloops from Vancouver last year, my usual go to is Home restaurant down the street, as it is for many people because there is always a line out the door. Since I didn't want to wait for the line I decided to try this restaurant. I'm Italian myself, and my mother and grandmother make very good Italian food, even so I'm not very picky, I just wanted something cheesy and filling. I ordered a ravioli dish, and I waited about 30-35 minutes for my food (even though the restaurant was empty). The food was put down on the table by a very uninterested waitress, although I don't blame her, she must of been bored out of her mind with such an empty restaurant. So now that I am starving and excited to have some pasta, I dig in and am welcomed by thin flavourless sauce that could have been substituted with water and I would have never noticed, and pathetic ravioli's with the same flavor profile, that also had a nice touch of being stone cold on the inside. I told the waitress about my complaint and she said that she would let the chef know, as she turned around she rolled her eyes. At this point I had only taken two bites, so I decided to get up and leave. I would not normally write a review like this, but I had to let everyone know that this is by far the worst restaurant I have ever been to, and I don't really understand how you could possibly give this place any higher than a 1 star rating. But if you're in the mood for waiting a long time for cold, bland food, then this is the place to go. But hey, the decor was nice.

This restaurant now serves Italian and Indian food. Very tasty.

Greasy spaghetti sauce not good. Canelloni was very bad. Service was good, garlic bread was ok..can't really mess that up. There was NO ONE in the place the entire time we were there. This place has the potential to be great, but they need better cooks. SO MUCH GREASE

Loved their Pasta and Gnocchi. Sunney, the host and owner was very friendly.
