About Dolce Vita

Dolce Vita is an award winning Italian beachfront restaurant in the heart of Sandy Ground, set in a whitewashed wooden building resting on the sand with views across the quiet bay and boats in the harbor. The official website describes the restaurant as a dinner only destination for daily homemade pastas, fresh local seafood, coveted imports, gracious service, and a chic yet casual atmosphere. Behind Dolce Vita are Abbi Ibrahim and Italian born chef Christopher Bacchiega, who met while working together in a Michelin starred restaurant in Mantova, Italy. The official menu includes starters such as Impepata di Cozze, Polpette alla Parmigiana, Gnocchi alla Gorgonzola, Rollatine di Melanzane, Caesar Salad, and Caprese di Bufala. Pasta options include Gnocchi with tomato sauce, bolognese, or gorgonzola, Fettuccine Bolognese, Risotto del Giorno, Spaghetti ai Frutti di Mare, Linguine with clams, Gamberoni Fra Diavolo, Ravioli del Giorno, and La Lasagna di Dolce Vita. Seafood dishes include Branzino alla Griglia, Grigliata di Aragosta, Dentice alla Griglia or Fritto, and Cioppino. Meat dishes include Costolette di Agnello, Rib Eye Grigliato, chicken paillard or Milanese, and Petto di Pollo alla Parmigiana. Desserts include Nutella Cheese Cake, Gelati e Sorbetti, and Tiramisu di Dolce Vita. Official hours are Wednesday-Monday from 6:00pm-9:30pm and closed Tuesday.
