    I had a great time celebrating my birthday. The staff was wonderful, the drinks were AWESOME and the food was delicious...so much so that I did not want to leave. I will definitely work on getting back for happy hour, the bartenders were friendly and attentive. I hope this level of service continues as I've been sharing with others to make sure they visit.

    The DJ needs to turn down the volume on the speakers—it’s loud enough to burst my eardrums.

    I celebrated my birthday on 04/09. I heard that Dove was nice, but they truly exceeded my expectations. They cheered me on for my birthday, suggested the tomahawk steak, and really made me feel special. I truly enjoyed every moment.

    The best birthday presentation ever!!! This was magical and sexy at the same time Tez is the best server and the bar manager is so kind professional and beautiful. She made sure we were taking care of and greeted me even on my exit. The atmosphere and ambiance is grown and sexy. I will definitely be back for the fried rice

    My experience at Doves was absolutely amazing. The staff, omg, were phenomenal!!! Shout out to Raven, who was attentive to my son and me as we celebrated a special occasion. I love this place and would fly back just to eat their NY strip steak any day.

    Brunch ambiance and food was nothing short of amazing! I would recommend this to the mature crowd. The vibe is grown and sexy. I had the Monte cristo sandwich, something that is different on black brunch menus, and it was fabulous!!!

    Doves is a vibe you should experience. The ambience was so nice the food was fantastic I loved the teriyaki lamb chops and the seafood nachos as an appetizer. My strawberry lemon drop was good as well. Our server gave us great suggestion and was so nice and sweet she kept checking on us to make sure we were good. They even open the door for you when you walk up. 10/10 across the board.
