    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.

    First time having a dinner for my birthday. I picked this place because of TikTok. No where to park, there wasn’t a host suited opening the door, there was no dove dancer preforming, wait time for food and drinks was long. Short staff and the waiter seemed bothered. Very upsetting I wanted to cry but as long as everyone get paid right. Do not recommend.

The nachos general tso wings and pagoda shrimp were a favorite I’ll defiantly be back thank you so much to my server for the night
