Patio is based upon availability. Simple, Rustic, yet Refined, anything but typical. Walk into Dolce and you're welcomed by the aromas from the open kitchen. You might notice the music, its contemporary, it's rock & roll, R&B, or soul. You'll definitely notice the wines, displayed on the wall like works of art. There are no white table cloths, no dabbing the corners of your mouth, no pomp, but lots of circumstance. And perhaps the only reason you noticed the aforementioned is because you haven't tasted our food. That's when the music fades into the background.
Our house chefs are proud to be 'dismantling' the dining experience, replacing it with a sophisticated yet relaxed evening that doesn't break the bank. It's the best of both worlds, yet the food is our finest accomplishment to date. Inspired by whats great with a deep appreciation for each ingredient; grown local sustainable farms, or produced and harvested by like-minded individuals. Dolce is rarely the same place twice.

We celebrated two birthdays this evening at Dolce. What a wonderful experience! Not only were the food and drinks fantastic, but the ambiance of the restaurant and the warmth of the personnel was also exceptional. Matthew, our waiter, was patient and attentive, and the owner, Stephen, was friendly and welcoming. He asked us how our food was, and stayed to chat for a bit. It’s so nice getting to know the business owners in our hometown :-). Five stars for Dolce!

This was our first time dining at Dolce and we will definitely be coming back. The food quality was excellent as well as the service. The menu has so many items that we want to try in future visits. This time I had the crab ravioli and my wife had the eggplant. Both were excellently prepared and plated.

Food was good, but everything was al a carte. No bread with pasta. Piano music was nice but loud, For the prices, it was expecting more. The restaurant had 3 different rooms, each with their own vibe.

Dolce was beautifully decorated for Christmas! Three of us enjoyed a relaxing dinner the night before Thanksgiving. Excellent service by Kathy at a high top in the bar area. The burrata with confit tomatoes was so flavorful! The caramelized salmon salad was excellent with a lot of fresh vegetables and a delicious mustard vinaigrette dressing. Chef Bob’s shrimp had just the right amt of kick to it, and the mushroom and white cheddar pizza was so good I didn’t want to share it with anyone 😉

The front room where we sat was pleasant and had a gentleman playing the piano. It was moderately noisy, but didn’t limit conversation. Service was okay although sometimes when looking for our waiter he was nowhere to be seen. The food was excellent with one exception. Our chopped wedge salad had an obviously bottled ranch dressing. A restaurant of this quality should be making their own delicious dressings. My risotto and scallops was very tasty and my husband really enjoyed Chef Joe’s shrimp dish. All in all a pleasant dining experience.

Last night we had one of our best meals at Dolce. Our waiter was attentive and kind, and when my boyfriend struggled to decide between two dishes, the owner provided his input to aid in his decision-making. After our meal, the owner brought out a taste of the meal my boyfriend chose not to eat. It is clear the owner listens to and cares about his patrons, and we will definitely be back to support.
