Le Dolomiti

On several occasions recently when I have dined at this excellent restaurant with my family and friends, I have had to reluctantly decline the sweet menu as I have literally felt "full" after enjoying such generous starter and main courses.

I am determined next time to forgo the ample starters availabe in order to induldge in the tempting delights of the sweet trolley.

Everytime we visit this lovely restaurant, those at my table always comment not only on the taste of the superb fresh food but also on the friendliness of the helpful staff as well as the wonderful ambience and atmosphere created here.

THESE are the reasons why we revisit time and again.

Try it .........you ll do the same.

I went to Le Dolomiti for my 60th birthday. I was very impressed with the helpfulness of the staff, The food was very nice, though nothing special, I think we all could have done with a bigger steak and more veg. There I'm afraid it goes downhill. I booked for 16 people, when we arrived we were given the party menu which was quite restricted. I asked if we could see the A La Carte menu but was told for parties over 12 we were only able to have the party menu. It was quite disappoining I thought the party menu was optional. The set menu was a starter, main and dessert. My daughter in law does not eat dessert so asked if she could have a coffee with a liqueur instead and was told it was not policy to substitute. When challenged they agreed but told us it would cost an extra £2.00, considering our bill was in excess of £500 I feel they could have made an exception without us having made an issue of it. I m afraid I wont be returning.

I just wanted to say what a fantastic meal we enjoyed at your establishment, many times had I passed it but it was not until someone suggested we go with them that we actually decided to venture inside.

The first thing we noticed was how busy it was and that did not recieve a rushed service, in fact we had a warm welcome as if we were a regular at Le Dolomiti.

The menu was extensive and my choice of bruchetta was as good as any I have had in Italy.

My main of Steak Diane was tender and tasty, and the tirimisu that followed was the icing on the cake.

This was not the end of our evening howether, my friend who's birthday it was decided to hit the dance floor, the DJ had a very good mix of old and new and the staff even removed some tables to give us more room, which was brilliant as about 4 other parties decided to join us.

It is without hesitation I would recomend Le Dolomiti to anyone regardless of if they are looking for good service, fab food or a bit of a boogie.

I am looking forward to coming back for another birthday this friday, which I have no doubt will be another great experience.

On 5 September 2010 I celebrated my birthday with a party of approximately 40 people including some children at this restaurant for lunch. We were all looked after extremely well, the food was delicious and we stayed there from 2.00pm until 7.00pm and was not rushed out the door. The children were looked after very well and we had our own area right at the back of the restaurant. I would definitely recommend this restaurant to anybody wishing to cater for a large party of people without a doubt. There was a set menu with about 5 choices for each course catering for everybody's requirements. My husband and I will be returning because of the high standard of food at a reasonable price.

Everyone had a fantastic time, we would recommend this restaurant to anyone who wants to celebrate a special occasion, or just have a quality meal

Well this is the first time I have visited this restaurant and to put it short and simply this is one of the best establishments I have ever eaten at, and to be honest I have eaten in quite a few!!

The starters were quite simply superb! For me the scallops were done to perfection and the dish was a true, authentic taste of the medditerranean!!

To follow the lobster thermidore was quite simply the best I have eaten and without a doubt the freshness of the ingredients and the quality of them shined through. The quality of the cooking was impressive and a credit to the chef.

The atmosphere was very relaxed and friendly which provided the perfect environment in which for us to celebrate our anniversary.

Superb service , superb ingredients and all cooked to perfection, what more could you possibly want from a restaurant?

We will be returning soon!

The ultimate dining experience and my favourite restaurant. I cannot think of another restaurant which would come close to the standard of Le Dolomiti. From the moment you walk into the place to the moment you leave, you know you have been in the finest restaurant around. The wide range of food is all of excellent quality, perfectly cooked, great sized portions and served to an extremely high standard. You will not find anywhere else tastier or finer. The extensive menu caters for everyone. My mouth is watering even at the thought. The staff are absolutely fantastic, so wonderfully attentive and make you feel so special. They assist in anyway they can to make the night / meal go exceptionally well. Their aim is for you to enjoy the night. The staff are also conscious of detail, without making you feel that they are fussing. The atmosphere and décor is so warm, cosy and friendly and looking around it is clear that everyone is enjoying themselves. The proprietors enhance every aspect of the restaurant. What can I say about them – they are just perfect. The attention to detail is amazing even down to the music which is great. All these factors equate to perfection and a fabulous atmosphere. In all the years I have been going there to the present day, I and my numerous family and guests have had such a brilliant evening, there has never been a complaint, we have all laughed, enjoyed the various meals and the many different varieties of drinks from the extensive bar including the very comprehensive wine list which would suit any palate. Everyone who I know including myself have raved over the place, even to my family from Ireland who are used to A1 High Quality 1st Class Dining have said that they would find this place very difficult to beat and have not been anywhere finer. We all say it is perfect. Its not just only the time spent in the restaurant, it’s the thought of even going there. I get cravings knowing that I am going to a restaurant and will not be at all disappointed. I cannot wait to go there again soon. I would recommend this restaurant to anyone. It’s the best.

I have been in the service industry for 15 years, and giving small 'free' things to customers to make sure thay have a good time when the staff are at fault is standard procedure! Simple apologies, or a voucher for 10% discount in future even appreciated!

Also, service charge is discretionary on the part of the customer, not the staff and Le Dolomiti need to be reminded of this.

This restaurant ruined a celebratory meal for my partner and my self. The starters were edible, but nothing special. The chicken neapolitan was over cooked, and almost inedible. My pasta with a tomato and vegetable sauce was tasteless.

The waitress was friendly, but the chef truly incompetent. When the pasta dish was returned as being unpleasant, it came back loaded with raw garlic! If I complain that a dish lacks flavour, it is not because my tastebuds are not working and I want *raw* garlic to dominate!

We received a grudging apology that the chef was very busy - so hire more staff, or take fewer bookings if your kitchen is a victim of its own success!

We will never return. We recieved the minimum bill reduction, despite being unable to eat the majority of our meals. The chicken and pesto toasted sandwich I made when I got home was the best thing I ate all evening!

My wife and I, as well as a recent family party of over 25 people, have all eaten at this delightful restaurant for many years and in that time, none of us have ever had any reason to complain about the wonderful food or the excellent service which we have received.

I have taken all of my family,entertained clients and work colleagues here over many years and all have commented on the restaurants excellence

I would urge anyone thinking of making a visit here to bear in mind that this IS a first class establishment serving 5 star food and giving a SOLID SILVER service.............dont take my word for this....just look at the amount of 10 STAR RATINGS it has received in these reviews!!
