    Our time here was exceptional! It was our first visit and we met the owner chef Armando as soon as we walked in! He greeted us warmly and said e decided to sit at the bar. We had excellent service from his daughter and Dan. Both were great to be around. The food was exceptional! We will be back. I’m with other reviewers when I say this place is a gem - thanks for a lovely evening!

    Stepping inside of Dolce e Salato is like being in someone’s living room. It’s homey and the staff (including and especially the owners) greet you like family. The high quality food, most imported from Italy, is unlike anything I have had before. They have a small restaurant to cater closely to their visitors. I can’t wait to come back as they always have new specials

    Sometimes when you least expect it, you come across a gem! This wonderful little restaurant NOT  on Federal Hill had the most outstanding Italian food we’ve had in a long time. Friars, if you’re looking for a place for breakfast, lunch or dinner it’s right at the bottom of the hill.
