In my experience there I was severed with some of the best service ever, Perla took care of and answered any questions I had about the place. Food was great, place was very nice will be visiting again thank you! read more

We really enjoyed this restaurant! The atmosphere is fun with lots of TVs showing sports. Our server (didn't catch her name) was great! She was very prompt and kept our water glasses full. The food was excellent! We tried several different entrees including the daily fish special, and they were all delicious. We finished the night with a piece of tiramisu, I would gladly come back again! read more

Great place, really enjoyed our Valentines dinner. We would have enjoyed it more if we had been told about the Valentines specials which we would have tried, but the waitress didn't seem interested in even being at work. We would give 4 or 5 stars for the food alone but the service this time made us feel like we were interfering on a private party. read more

Nice place. It's upscale meets downtown. Lots of variety on the menu. Meals are served w free rolls. They are good but very filling. The Chicken piccata was ok, sauce was thick and didn't seem like a wine sauce. More zest/flavor needed. Chicken was plump and juicy. The Lobster ravioli w Alfredo sauce was very creamy. 5 large raviolis. They tasted like "seafood" ravioli. I enjoyed them. We ordered side salads w both meals, which are $5 extra. Romain mix w cucumber, onion and cherry tomatoes. Good sized. We tried the Blueberry Tiramisu w Lemon, it was delicious and recommended. Our waiter Victor was very knowledgeable of the menu and specials. We enjoyed having him serve us. We would recommend and plan to try this place again. read more

My husband and I went here recently when they were visiting from out of town. We would give our service about a 2 1/2, but it seemed to get better as time went on. Neither one of us were crazy about our main entrées and I would give mine a two 2 and my husband would give his a three 3. I ordered the Salmon Piccata and my fish was really overcooked. Additionally, we order fish in for our family and I could taste the difference between the two different pieces of fish. My husband ordered the Chicken Parmesan and he said it tasted very average and would give it a three 3. We both thought the portion size of the meal was clearly enough and would give that about a four 4 to a 4 1/2. We ordered two sides, the sautéed spinach and their potatoes. We would give the sautéed spinach about a four 4 to a 4 1/2, but would give our potatoes about a one 1 or 1 1/2. There was truly nothing spectacular about them for us, and we thought they were not only dry, but somewhat bland. The waiter knew they had overcooked my salmon, he looked at it and could tell, but they offered us a free dessert after he told them. That was very nice and we would give our pineapple cheesecake a hands-down five 5, it was excellent! We also ordered an appetizer, the mozzarella sticks, and we enjoyed those plus the marinara sauce that came with them as well. We rarely come in, only when we visit family, and we hope our next dining experience is definitely a more delicious one. There was another couple there who said they did not see any of the owners they usually see there and that their pizza was overdone also. However, they did say their pizza was normally really good and that might be something we try if we go there again. Overall, our experience was not that great, but we hope if we go in again that it's more of a delicious one! We do appreciate that they gave us a complementary dessert and we're so glad we tried their pineapple cheesecake. It was absolutely delicious! read more

Great pizza crust. I had a great waiter, who took good care of us. Still 2 stars. I ordered the Dovini trio. The lasagna was literally the size of the head of my fork (see pics). The chicken parm was burnt. The cheese on the alfredo was cold. I asked them to remake it, and they obliged. It took them over 30 minutes to remake, and by the time they brought it to me, my wife and child had finished their meals and we were left to stare at other people's plates. The manager did try to bring it out, but the waiter told him to take it back and make it to go. Again, tiny slice of lasagna, chicken I could not cut through, and the same alfredo they had already served me... it all went straight into the garbage. They had tiny slices of foccia bread, nothing like the other YELP review. There was oil and balsamic on the table, and a nice selection of beers. My wife ordered a white pizza, and when they said they didn't have one, she asked if they could make one with alfredo sauce. The waiter again, was excellent, and make it happen. However, while the crust was nice, the sauce was chunky and flavorless. 2 STARS are both for the excellent job our waiter did. I hope he stays here. It's just too bad the manager never bothered to make it to our table. read more

Service is top notch! Great atmosphere. Not too noisy. The food is AMAZING. We had a party of 10 & everyone loved their meals. Appetizers were great...best homemade meatballs EVER & the biggest & tastiest mozzarella sticks we have ever had! I had the Rigatoni Arrabbiata and it was one of the BEST Italian meals I have ever eaten! I tasted the Stromboli & it was fantastic too! Absolutely worth the 45 minute drive from Fort Worth to this little gem of a restaurant!!! We will be back!!! read more

This is a family owned business with wonderful customer service. They really try hard to deliver wonderful food.

I was visiting the area last weekend and had the opportunity to dine at Dovini on Friday night. The place was PACKED with people waiting to get in (I see this as a very good thing!) It's not a large space, but it has a great ambience. We were attended to by Drita who was ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL. We got our drinks quickly and they were delicious. My dining companions ordered the Valentine's Day special (steak, lobster, etc.!), shrimp alla vodka and I had the Godfather pizza. I can tell you that we were all extremely pleased. The bread they serve before the meal is insanely good! The sauce on the pizza was SO fresh. We had the chance to talk with Drita's husband who is one of the owners and he was so welcoming. When I'm in Bridgeport again, I'll be coming back to Dovini! read more

Absolutely the worst "Italian" meal I've ever experienced. Start with stale rolls, followed by an entree of "veal piccata" that consisted of, literally, chunks of some type of white meat, albeit true veal or pork. One bite and I pushed it aside. I've avoided Bridgeport for a couple years and wanted to give it another chance. Dovini has ended my travels here. The server and a subsequent manager were very apologetic. I'll stick with Decatur that has much better options. read more

Day after review. Dovini's manager called within 15 minutes of the review below and said he would fix the problem. We picked up the toasted cheese garlic bread the next day and it was perfect! Since Josh made it right, we will be trying them again. My daughter said that her meal was great and she would definitely be back to eat again. Original review. Just got home with a to go. Opened the toasted cheese garlic bread and had to through all of it away. It wasn't just black in a few places, the whole bottom of the bread was black. You couldn't scrape it off because it was charred deep into the bread. How do you not see & smell what you just cooked. I say you knew but since it was a pickup, you let it go. SHAME ON YOU! You've lost our business because this isn't the first time this sort of thing has gone on. NO MORE! read more

Food is outstanding. Warm family atmosphere and in a great part of town. I've eaten here several times and I've yet to be let down. The drinks, the food and the service are all outstanding for a small Texas town. The owners I believe from the rumor mill are NYC refugees and this has the New York Italian food feel nailed. read more

Oh my goodness! This was the best Italian food I've had outside of Italy. Chef Danni made fabulous filet, lamb chops and an amazing gluten-free pasta with vodka sauce and vegetables...perfectly al dente! Bridgeport may be a bit out of the way, but definitely worth a trip to experience this fantastic cuisine. Expect us to be back. read more

The first time we came here about 4 months ago, the food was really amazing. The bruschetta was delicious and the fish was very good. So, we decided to come back for dinner again. What a disappointment! The bruschetta was not done the same way and it had way too many red onions. The chicken Marsala had such a bland sauce I had to douse it in salt for it to bd edible. The short rib ravioli was swimming in sauce. On a high point, the cannolis were very good. read more

We loved our food! We had been wanting to try Dovinis for a bit now and finally stopped in after stopping and chatting with the owner on the street. My girlfriend and I weren't actually that hungry but wanted to try something while we were in the area so we split the trio and were very happy with the quality and preparation of the food. We also got mozzarella sticks and marinara which were incredible ! Cant wait to come back and try something else. read more

Dovini Italian Bar & Grill - Trio chicken parm Alfredo and lasagna - Italian Near Me - Bridgeport, Texas

We made reservations based on advice from friends. Seated immediately and had a great server that took our drink orders while we waited for the rest of the party.to arrive. The place looks very nice but the great decor is ruined by about 20 TVs around the room. Waiter offered specials and took the order. The ambience was great for conversation as the noise level was not loud at all. I had a great Bacardi and coke which I supper while enjoying the hot rolls with butter and waiting for my trio; lasagna, fettuccini Alfredo and chicken Parmesan. The food was hot and appeared fresh. I loved the fettuccini and lasagna but while the chicken Parm tasted great, the chicken was way overcooked. Everyone loved their dinner's so we had dessert. The tiramisu was conventional and outstanding. I will come back for sure. My Wife had the spaghetti Bolognese and did it was the best spaghetti dish she ever had. Bathrooms were spotless . read more

Although the wait was longer than expected (it's new and still working through small kinks), I still give it 5 out of 5. The workers were extremely polite, caring and were super tentative to me while I waited for my food.. I did take out, and would absolutely do it again. read more

My mother-in-law and I went here for lunch today. It was amazing! They have a really big menu right now but plan on downsizing it a bit once they figure out what people like and don't like. Our service was great. Josh was so nice! I had the meatball appetizer which was really good. I also ordered the house salad which I don't know why I expected it to be small like a side salad but it is not! We shared it. My mother -in-law had the chicken florentine and loved it. She was happy there was a lot of spinach! The remodel looks great. It gives off a higher class vibe but still felt relaxed and casual. I also had a glass of wine which they got from next door which I love. Our bill for The both of us was $41 so really good pricing. I believe I chatted with one of the owners who was incredibly nice and accommodating. We will definitely be back! Menu literally has any Italian dish you could think of right now. Lots of salads, pizzas, sandwiches too. read more

We love Dovini's! Food is top notch, generous portions and priced fairly. We typically have apps or sandwiches/pizza at the bar but went there for Mother's Day this year and we went for Crab Cakes app, the Rib Eye and the Cannelloni's and we left full and impressed. read more

First time visit today; what a TREAT! I drove 40 minutes to get to this place to meet up with a friend for lunch. I had previewed the menus online before hand and already knew what I wanted... " Italian Lamb chops with roasted potatoes. It was a bit pricey but I decided to splurge ($38.00). There were 4 of them. I have never been so pleased with a new menu choice in my life of 77 years. You rarely see lamb chops on any menu so I was eager to try them . None of the grocery stores in my rural area even carry lamb chops and in the big stores that do, they are expensive. These were cooked to perfection and so delicious I can hardly wait to go again. The roasted potatoes were very delicious too for my side of choice, I selected balsamic glazed Brussel sprouts. They were wonderful!! I also had a side salad that was lettuce. Cherry tomatoes, cucumber and I picked balsamic vinegerette dressing served on the side.i have a small appetite so as you might guess, there was too much to eat. "To go" boxes that ensure another meal at home. Full bar was nice so I ordered a peach Bellini and asked the sweet waitress to tell the bartender to make it extra peachy. After it was delivered, the bartender came to my table with an extra shot of peach purée if I wanted it; I did and it was so good. You can't get a Bellini at a lot of places so when they accommodated my request I knew that this was an upscale kind of place. The ambience is casual and very stylish, spotless too.The food came out fast and hot. I can't say enough good things about my food, service or locale. It's on the main drag of historic Bridgeport, Texas. To finish off my special lunch, I had pineapple cheesecake. ABSOLUTELY fabulous. My waitress said the owner's mother makes it herself, beautifully presented with little dollops of whipped cream and a lovely drizzle of caramel sauce. My friend had cannolini and bragged about how good it was. It looked good too. Oh, nearly forgot, my lamb chops and potatoes were served on a big cutting board! Be sure to check out the full menu online... very impressive!! My friend said the place was recommended to her by a coworker who told her the pizzas are fab. They list about 20 different kinds. You will not regret going to Dovini's bar and grill. I hope you try it because it is marvelous. I am just a very happy customer with no personal connection with anyone affiliated with the place. My reviews of restaurants are often critical because I have a very high standard and it annoys me when a restaurant wants to look and taste like a high class kind of place and falls terribly short and charges too much anyway. Dovini's scores top grades in every area. I am sending a pic of my lunch sans the cheesecake. read more

The beer was good and the service was good. The food was however just ok. The broth was hot and had great flavor that being said the rest left much to be desired. The calamari in it was chewy and very rubbery and so was the shrimp. All the seafood in there tasted as it was precooked and frozen. If you are going to serve a classic Italian seafood dish make sure you have top quality ingredients. The taste of this dish definitely did not justify its price. read more

My mother and I went to Dovoni's last night. It was my first visit, but her third. I'd been hearing how good it was, and I left convinced I'd had one of the best meals of my life. My mother got the Chicken Milanese which was very good, but my Redfish was even better. One of the specials for the night was Redfish over risotto with asparagus and mixed vegetables. Everything was cooked and seasoned perfectly. The dish was artfully plated and looked delicious before I even took a bite. It made me a Dovoni believer. Also I need to say the entire staff was friendly and attentive. We were checked on regularly by both our waitress, manager, and the chef himself. I couldn't have asked for a better dining experience. read more

Austin is an Amazing waiter! Always happy, goes above and beyond. Give that man a raise! Oh, and the food is pretty tasty as well!

I am full-blooded Italian and this is the best place I've ever eaten in Texas. well, worth the trip to Bridgeport if you don't live close.

Wow, a great discovery while here in Bridgeport - Dovini's is doing it right! The lighting and music set the proper ambiance, along the first rate service levels and retro fun décor. We started with the fresh calamari served along side a cup of marinara sauce - nice "zing" to it - San Marzanos, perhaps? An ice cold dirty martini, paired so well with the chicken Piccata. Next, we tried the Veal Marsala, ​and the wine sauce was excellent. In-house made Tiramisu for dessert was a strong finish. Well done, Louis - and Thank You! read more

Italian "chef" prepares the food. A basic pizza was doughy and not fit to eat. They did offer to replace it. Mozzarella on app menu was best dish. Waiter was a cool guy but was having an off day as he was scattered all over the place. Ambiance was nice and staff was super nice. I would say maybe it was an off day for everyone so give em a try I wanted to like the place it was just off that day I think. read more
