Neighbourhood gem
Good for special occasions
Charming

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.

Food was great but the service left a little to be desired. Waiter basically disappeared after taking our order. Never follow up for any second rounds of drinks or even to refill our water. We got tired of waiting and just got the check instead of staying for desserts or more drinks.

First time dining at Dolce Restaurant & Wine Bar. Experience was very pleasant and positive on a snowy Valentines evening. Service was very good. Daisy, our server was very attentive and made some very good recommendations. The food was great. Very well prepared and presented. No surprises. My wife and I really enjoyed the live piano music which set a wonderful background for a romantic Valentines dinner. Overall the noise level was very moderate and easy to have a conversation. The prices were inline with the quality of food and service. Definitely will visit Dolce again for the next special occasion.

Love this restaurant! Whenever we visit I immediately feel so welcome and almost feel as if I am on vacation. Steven, the owner, is one of the nicest and most personable person you will ever meet! Always makes time to visit with all of his guests! The food is great and I love the piano music!

We ordered the Italian salmon and the 5 spice rigatoni. The flavors were outstanding. The main dining area is not large like other retaurants but has a comfortable feel to it. It was also relaxing With music from the pianist. No large confusing menu but a menu with great dishes seasoned well. We highly recommend dining here.
