    We went to DOPO to celebrate my wife’s birthday and loved literally everything! The hostess and our server were both wonderful and the unique space set a perfect tone for a night out. We had ordered drinks upstairs at Bar Rosso, as we were early for our reservation. Both cocktails were fabulous and we enjoyed them back downstairs at DOPO alongside the whipped ricotta and green tomatoes to start. Our meal was delicious (thank you to our server for the recommendations on both food and wine!) and I couldn’t possibly say enough good things about the tirimisu to end the evening. We will be back :)

    We had the privilege of being served by Sarah and she went above and beyond to provide us with such an amazing experience starting from the moment we walked in! We dined in the lounge and the food was great, drinks were delicious curtesy of the talented bartender named Levi. Couldn’t recommend more, will definitely be requesting to be served by her again!
