Good atmosphere, good food, a bit busy but I sat at the bar for happy hour on Wednesday’s. I originally ordered the fried eggplant, bruschetta as an appetizer but they forgotten the eggplant. By the time the food came out it was already too late so I didn’t even mention it. Happy hour at the bar is until 8 pm it’s worth it! The sangria is my always go to it’s delicious

Excellent food! A group of 10 was served promptly with our reservations. Drinks, appetizers and food were quickly served and we never felt rushed. The food was incredible. The lobster mac is one of the best I have ever had. The garlicy sauce on our pizza was perfect. The espresso martini ***Chefs kiss*** highly recommend!

We made reservations and showed up early. They were so accommodating! Three of us ordered 4 flights of pasta! Picante, Alfredo, Lobster Mac, and Pesto. We had bruschetta for an appetizer. Everything was so so good!! We had a nice amount of leftovers, and it was all so tasty on day 2!

Dorsia serves “Italian” cuisine in the most American way possible. None of the food is bad, it just tastes stunningly average. My friend and I had to wait around 20 minutes to get a table which is fine. We ordered 2 drinks costing $24. They were fine. The pasta and pizza is expensive. The bill was over $80 in total. Being this much, I assumed the pasta would be amazing. It was not. It was so hokey and Americanized. There was so, so, so much cheese and dairy in the pasta, it made it just taste somewhat bland. There were a lot of random spices in the pasta sauce as well. There was no thought or design in the flavor profile. I ordered the cajun chicken and the lobster mac and a supreme pizza without olives. Again, everything was good, of course, it just was like wow, ok, super heavy and a pretty singular flavor. Some people like pasta like that. It’s good, it’s just not what I’m looking for. The pizza was greasy and the meats weren’t that good and the crust wasn’t good either. I don’t think I could even taste any sauce. I wouldn’t get the pizza here. Pretty average bar pie. Service was kind of slow as well. Overall, disappointing, but I can see how some people may enjoy it.

Ask for Adrienne at the bar! Her service was amazing. I got the popular pasta flight the piccante and pesto was so good. The other vodka speziata tasted like spicy ravioli out the can. I wouldn’t recommend. They are big portions. I got chicken added and it was delicious and seasoned. I got the mule and toxic masculinity drinks both were really good. Parking is terrible so just be prepared to spin the blocks a few times.

Uniqueness comes in the pasta flight, never have been to a place that did multiple pasta options, which I love! Each flight is actually a complete serving so you essentially go home with 2-4 more meals from a 3 flight. Also went back and have now had all of their pastas on the menu and all are great in their own little way. I definitely think that they chose good pasta and sauce combo for most ‘dishes’

Worst service I’ve had in years, wasnt busy but took 20 minutes to get water, one of our groups drink orders didn’t get delivered till after we finished our food. One of our group got their pastas first and was finished by the time the rest of our pasta flights came out. The duck came dried out/ overcooked for 2 of us. Even waiting for the bill to be split and run took forever. Cool place with decent food but literally awful service.

Had an amazing birthday dinner for my fiancé. The food was excellent, we split a five option pasta flight and I enjoyed every one. Only downside is parking.

JORGE ALBERTO LANDEROS RAMIREZ

I had to update my review . Never order food to go. I ordered a pomodoro large and they served me not even half and charged me all. In called and nobody answered, left a voicemail and nobody called me back. Excellent service. Trainee was so nice with us. Food is delicious and extremely big, so get your stomach empty and still think Ron take some food back home. Prices are affordable
