This restaurant was recommended to me. Overall, I enjoyed it. The food was good & he service excellent. I have to say the 2 draw backs was that it was noisy, and the drinks were pricy. It's a very busy area so the parking isn't the greatest, but they have a valet which is a good option.

We’ve been to Dodici a number of times over the years and have always had an enjoyable experience. The menu had a wide selection and there were also a number of specials for the evening. I selected the chicken cacciatore special and it was outstanding, a good value for the price. My wife ordered a pasta dish with a veal sauce that was excellent as well. We were seated toward the back of the room which was good because the music playing up front was a little bit loud. I think conversation would have been difficult if we were seated closer to the front. I thought the price for glasses of wine were a little high ($16-20 per glass). I also don’t like the practice of saying the price on the menu reflects a cash discount and then tacking on a service charge to pay via credit card. Since most people pay by credit card, offer a discount for people who pay by cash.

Start to finish this was some of the best Italian food anywhere! Excellent baked clams, calamari and amazing cold seafood salad. My son hasn’t stopped raving about his homemade pasta in a veal sauce with shaved truffles! My husband feels the same way about his Mediterranean bronzino. My halibut was excellent and so was Mom’s filet of sole oreganato. Everything was superb!

A friend and I went to Dodici for a restaurant week dinner. We has reservations, and we were promptly seated. We immediately noticed that the restaurant was noisy. I had an excellent Cosmo. We were served fresh bread and focaccia; very tasty. My mozzarella caprese salad, with roasted red peppers and olives, was perfect. My entree, of veal meatballs, was quite over cooked. My friend didn’t comment about her entree, but it looked dry to me. The dessert presentation was pretty, but not great. Dry bombolini ( mini doughnuts). Service was quite good.

Always a pleasant experience. Valet service, greeted by wonderful hostess and seated promptly. We had the same waiter as last the visit. However all staff are very accommodating. The food is excellent and the menu always has specials. We were celebrating my wife’s birthday, the wait staff sang happy birthday. What more could you ask. Love this place. Come one and all and enjoy.

Went for Christmas Eve dinner. Wasn’t expecting five stars but this place should have just turned on the closed sign before we walked in. We had 8:15 reservations, walked into a cafeteria lit dining room. These lights were up so high you would think they were closed and cleaning up. Zero ambiance. There was a loud group of drunk guys not even at the bar but in the front of the dining room. They were so loud that they made it difficult for us to have a conversation and we were seated towards the back. Not the restaurants fault, but definitely annoying. Our server was nice enough, although he was definitely in the weeds. Place was severely undermanned, again, it’s Christmas Eve so I’ll give that a pass as well although there are plenty of people standing around watching the servers. Went with the three course menu. Salads were fresh, cold, delicious. That’s where it ended. We both got the Prime Rib. Embarrassing. There was so much fat on both of our entrees that it was inedible. Looks like they wanted to get rid of some last pieces because we were the last to be seated and called it a day. They did remove one of the dishes from the bill but we left hungry, blinded by the light and annoyed. Hard pass.
