    The food was always good here. I had the fettuccine with shrimp. It was excellent. My husband had the beet salad. He said it could’ve had a few more beats on it but liked it. Had the soup like the soup and had the meatballs very enjoyable evening.

    Generally we all love Dolce but our experience last night left us unsettled. Only 1 of the 3 of us got exactly what we ordered.

    great neighborhood restaurant with excellent food, service and a nice ambience, just a really good vibe. the only thing i would change is the playlist--too much old school rock and reggae--a more eclectic mix that has more modern, cool, interesting music would better suit the clientele and ambience.

    I’ve been to Dolce probably 10 times over recent o years—all for lunch—and I have to say it has been improving, both in terms of food and service. Being in a strip mall, the ambience is what it is but the interior setup and decor are very pleasant. The flatbreads are very good, as is the burger. I just had the lasagna and it was a little different but quite good as well.
