I really enjoyed myself here. Social distancing was in effect. Masks were being worn by workers and patrons when they walked from one plave to another. Food is great and drinks are good.

I have been to this place many times in the past but this is my first review. I would love to give this spot more stars because I know one of the managers but I cant. So I walked in and told the girl that I had reservations and she told another female server to walk me back. There was a little confusion as to who was taking me back at first. The lady proceeded to walk me back to my seat and was training someone or something so she stopped to dump ice and walked to the side behind the bar which was confusing to me. I had to ask her while I was waiting was she taking me back or not. She said yes then finally walked me back. The seats outdoors was in an alleyway looking area and the rest was on the side of the building. They did their best for what they could. The service with the one female was fairly slow and she told me at the end she was covering for someone which still was no excuse. The lady that was supposed to be our waitress came towards the end and was super nice but she came as we were about to leave. I ordered a pinot nior and bolognese pasta to go. My friend had garlic shrimp and a drink as well. The food and drinks here are really good I must say. Just the service was mediocre.

I have come here several times and while the food and drinks are always amazing the service is pretty much always atrocious. The most recent time it took an entire hour for us to get our first round of drinks. When we ordered seconds they just never came so we got our check and left. I hope the service is somewhat improved the next time I visit.

If you want a vibe, dolce is the place to be. With the new touch of outside dining it has definitely added a wonderful perk to the establishment....great bartenders and music always on point.

I love grabbing lunch or an early dinner here (before the crowd comes) Best dirty martini in town!! The bartenders are always friendly and personable. During the early afternoon there is a happy hour. House drinks are about $4-$5 tap beers are about $3 & there are food specials. During the day the music is relaxing and you get an overall chill vibe. There is street parking in the front and parking in the back but beware its super tight in the back so be careful.

If I could leave 0 stars I would. I’ve never experienced such a lack of restaurant etiquette before. Came here with a few friends, most of us paid with card (mind you there’s a $30 minimum which I’ve never heard of for a restaurant) and one of us paid cash. Before my friend could receive her food and take a bite the waitress rudely walked over and asked her to pay her bill (with hurrying hand gestures included). Much to our disbelief we were all in shock as 1. We’ve never been to an establishment that asked for payment before actually eating and 2. She stood there and waited for her to give the cash which made all of us very uncomfortable. We asked to speak to the manager and he condoned her behavior instead of rectifying the situation with a simple apology and explanation of their procedures. Safe to say I won’t be coming back to this place ever again. The fact that I’m leaving this review in the first place says a lot considering I never leave bad reviews.

Its good as a night club. Food is blah. Went on the 50% off Monday deals. Ordered, well, tried to order the seafood bowl, but they ran out or had no shellfish at all! Waited all while for another order and yet it came out warm, almost cold. Bartender/ waitress was rude When I asked whats taking the food so long, she replied I dont cook. I bartend. Wow, yet you are taking orders.

If I could give it less than one star I would, this establishment is that bad ! The service was beyond subpar to say the least. I’ve never been to a place that before you even take a bite of your food the waiter is standing over you begging for you to pay for your food, on top of that everyone that I was with (total of 6 people ) ordered at the same time and everyone’s dish comes out 10-15 min apart from each other, including one of them being incorrect (they brought a vegetarian Mac and cheese with meat in it after assuring her there would be no meat). Needless to say none of us will be returning to this place especially after speaking to the manager who not only dismissed our concerns but continued to make excuses for his rude staff member. Save yourself the hassle and go ANYWHERE else.

I enjoyed the front sitting at the bar talking to the grown sexy women. The back is for the club goers that wants to dance and show off. As long as theres respect amongst each other, trust to have a great night at Dolce.

I like the food at Dolce. I would give 5 stars if they did not judge me when I come to the restaurant/lounge. Four times, I have gone to Dolce to get something to eat. I had no problem on my first visit. On the second visit, I had to go to the bar to get service. On the third and fourth visit, I was asked why I was there. The waitress gave good service though. On the fourth visit, the waiter/waitress gave me the impression that they thought I would not pay my bill or tip. I paid and tipped. However, they have to work to not prejudge.

Good thing I came during happy hour. I had the southern fried chicken. Its usually $17 for 3 wings, some Mac and cheese, and collard greens. The chicken was horrible, and the mac and cheese was horrible. Definitely not southern style. The collard greens were great. However, the platter was worth every bit of the $8.50 plus tax I paid for it. At the regular price, I would have been mad. The service was good too.

Places like this I would love the option of giving negative star ratings! This place was horrible and they will never get my money. The female bouncer at the door was very rude and disrespectful to people who were waiting to get inside and then got so upset at a person on line that she decided to start charging those online $50 to enter! LOL....watching from the inside I was appalled at the way she spoke to and treated the people who were patiently waiting to get in.

Long lines outside, over crowded in the back area, not enough bartenders for the amount of people waiting for drinks. Noticed spills that were never cleaned as well as dirty tables left sitting for several hours. Staff lighting bottles next to your face. Not worth the $25.
