Review from Jack G.

I stopped in to La Dolce Vita just once and it was like walking into.. I'm not even sure. It's something you could only imagine existing in the olden days to be honest.
It's was a tiny, cozy place but full of guys (mostly older men) playing cards and watching TV. It's like a guys only club, there were no women here. They have good coffee which you can take to go if you feel out of place. The place was kind of funny. It just seemed like a bunch of older men gathering to get away from their wives to just do guy things. Things like swearing and arguing and cheering and drinking an espresso...
Yaaa.. the last part didn't quite make sense in my brain either but it was happening and it was entertaining. -

I stop in to La Dolce Vita from time to time for a latte. The coffee here is superb as it can only be in Little Italy. The shop is small, loud, and full of guys playing cards or watching the game on television. I don't think I have ever seen another woman in the place, but that does not inhibit me from going in there myself. You can also get your coffee to go, and that is what I often do.

This is a blast into the old world, right on the edge of Edmonton's downtown in Little Italy. If you're a woman, which I am, and you come here, which I did, you will experience being looked at in a way in which, you are, perhaps, unaccustomed. Woman as a divine object of appreciation is alive and well here in this transplanted little Italy. Yet, there's a feeling you've stepped into a male sphere where women aren't barred, but don't really belong; divine intruders catching man in the act of being collectively male, in all their card-playing, sports watching, espresso-sipping, one-uping, shit-talking, back-slapping glory. Don't get me wrong, I love it! But the coin has two sides, and I'm glad to just stop in for great coffee, a gelato perhaps, a few ego boosts, and I'm on my merry modern, North Western way. Fine coffee, superb service. Step outside the Starbucks box and taste the difference.
