    My dear friend and I always meet at your restaurant to celebrate Thanksgiving and Christmas. We have never failed to enjoy the service - from the minute we walk in the door, through our hostess and server, as well as the delicious food. Thanks for being consistently great!

    The first restaurant we’ve been to in a very long time where everything tasted amazing. We had the chilled red wine, bread & butter (omg!!), ahi starter, so unique and so tasty! Cheeseburger, broccolini, steak and fries. Everything was beyond delicious and seasoned so well. Such a unique take on food. The only complaint I have is that they still use seed oils for frying, but other than that, we were beyond impressed with this cute little restaurant with its laidback vibes & big flavors

    Great food in a really nice neighborhood restaurant. Live music was playing (we were there on a Friday), which was very good, but maybe a little loud. We asked for a table off to the side and it was perfect. If Dolce reads this, our server, Jeff, was excellent. He read the table really well. Right balance of attentiveness and giving us room to chat. Great job.

    Went for dinner prior to a movie like many others on Saturday night. The place was packed with a number of large parties for which this is a good place. Service was very energetic and excellent however the food was fair to good at best. However given its ambience and energy I'm not certain having excellent food would materially impact their business.
