Breakfast sandwich with a chai tea
Crystal M.

I adore this little place! There is a sign on the door that states the tables are reserved for paying customers, which I think is a totally reasonable ask!! There was a woman who disagreed with that and despite her being extremely rude all the staff handled it with grace but also didn't let her just get her way because she was causing a scene. The staff are extremely attentive without being overbearing. The sandwich was incredible and the drink was smooth. There's plenty of seating inside and even though it was a busy afternoon I was able to snag a small table that I could eat and work at. If I'm in this area again I will gladly stop here for a bit!

Iced coffee

I wanted to try a coffee shop so I search one up near me. I walk in and ask politely if they have anything similar to a brown sugar shaken espresso and the owner says "we don't follow influencers that's bs"(I didn't mention anything about an influencer). He then prepares my coffee and prepares me one that's halfway. So rude and never going back..

I am not from the area, but my dentist is located in Wilton. I was in need of some caffeine and breakfast after my early dentist appointment. I am glad I stumbled upon Café Dolce. The chai tea was incredible. It is not that fake syrup thing other bigger companies use. I also got a croissant filled with spinach and cheese. I forgot exactly what cheese it was, but it was honestly the best croissant I've had in a while. If you like savory croissants, I will recommend that one. I will definitely be returning here.

Apple cake

Cute place in an unassuming small shopping center near the Merritt Parkway. Excellent service, coffee and food! Purchased an almond latte and a coconut latte - both were hot and delicious! Had a ham egg and cheese breakfast sandwich (panini?) along with an almond croissant, blueberry muffin, and a piece of apple cake (seasonal item) and all were fresh and delicious! We will definitely be back! Friendly, helpful, and attentive staff!

Coffee with free refills

Great small restaurant, only opened till 3pm. Many choices of omelets, pastries, crepes, sweets, great coffee. Very noisy, very busy in the morning. My croissant egg/ham/ cheese omelet was quite copious, and delicious. My husband omelet was as good, no bread on the side.

Black Iced Coffee
Jason P.

I was in the area on a Family Food Adventure away from home, and I Yelp-searched to see if there were any noteworthy coffee places to visit. Cafe Dolce certainly fit the bill. I ordered a black iced coffee. It was smooth and rich. Perhaps a South American or Central American-based blend. It was very well executed. A cut above for coffee places that served this style of iced coffee. It was also reasonably priced, which I'm paying more attention to as I've noticed many places are charging coffee drink prices for their least expensive black cold coffee option. Cheers to Cafe Dolce for being reasonable. I took my coffee to go, but I observed a thriving inside and outside dining/drinking area. I didn't order food, but the desserts and pastries I observed looked top notch for a coffee place. Cafe Dolce has earned my recommendation. Five Stars.

Macchiato

Absolutely love this place. Their food is always fresh and cooked to perfection. I have had their coffee, panini, crepes, pastries. All of them were delicious every time. The Service is quick and a great place to have ur morning coffee and get ur day started. I love their coffee art as well makes my hectic and chaotic day a little better!! My go to spot for a quick bit and I have taken almost all my friends and family here. And we come back for more.

Nice post Covid sitting area.  Hope it stays!

This is the best bakery I know of around Connecticut. We are so blessed to have this European bakery so close. On weekends, they offer wonderful strudels - cheese, apple and others. Love everything they offer. Hope they keep going strong for years to come.

Latte and ham and cheese croissant

Best coffee shop ever. Super busy but fast service and amazing food European style. I would like to thank the owner to keep all the best ingredients to make the pastry just as good as home.

It was quite busy when we arrived on a late Sunday a.m. in January. Tables were filled and there was a line for ordering. We decided on a tomato cheddar soup and the Churn it Up sandwich with Havarti and provolone. We were told the wait would be 40 mins, giving us the option to wait it out or go elsewhere. We stuck it out and the food was at our table in less than 20 mins. The sandwiches were ooey gooey toasted cheesiness and paired perfectly with the creamy tomato soup. It came with a lighty dressed arugula salad. I had a freshly brewed ice tea and my dining partner got a Dr. Brown's soda. The breakfast rush was soon over but people were still coming in to eat and grab take out while we enjoyed our meals. They also offer beers and wines and hot chocolate. The entire place was very clean, including the restrooms, although I did not see any table wiping going on. Staff were smiling and polite. Plenty of parking in lot shared with other business.

I replace the home fries with anything else potato! Listen , I have no complaints about this place except my absolute hatred for those nasty home fries! Today my order came to me like they fired the best cook they had and sent in the janitor! I order the OMG platter with (tots instead of nastiness) ... the OMG comes with pancakes. Not only was my platter 80% nasty ass home fries, the bacon was soggy AF , and on top of all of it , Litterly, was the pancakes! WHO PUTS PANCAKES ON TOP OF ONIONS AND PEPPERS ??????? is this a joke? My tots were under my side of French toast. FIRE WHOEVER THOUGHT those home fries are hitten , like asap !!!!

Ordered a tray of various wraps (chix cutlet, turkey, ham, Italian) Went to pick up today, was a variety of subs! I knew they'd get it wrong. Woman was apologetic, offered to make the wraps (meaning take the stuff from the subs and stick it on a wrap and call it a day), and give me a discount. Was going to just take the tray as is, begrudgingly, but then noticed tuna on it! At that point I said no way. Not taking a tray of subs that will all taste like tuna. Hate tuna fish, didn't order tuna fish! If the guy was more patient on the phone, he could have got the order correct. Don't think I'd order over the phone again here. Ended up getting something at Stews for the party. Disappointing.

I completely forgot to leave a review, but this was truly one of the best restaurants I've visited…read morerecently what a place! I would give it a solid 5/5. As a Middle Eastern food lover, I was blown away by their shawarma platter, salads, and everything else on the menu it was all top-notch. I visited New York a month ago and then headed to Connecticut. While there, I searched for the best restaurants and found this fast-food spot. I absolutely loved it! The way they received customers and the level of hospitality was outstanding. The people there were amazing. For me great customer service makes the whole experience and they nailed it. Now, let's talk about the food it tasted incredible. They told me they also serve biryani and haleem and as a huge haleem fan, I had to try it. I'll never forget that taste! I even asked to meet the chef and they introduced me to Chef Bala. He made an unforgettable haleem that truly tasted like the original Hyderabadi Nizami haleem. I asked him how he made it and he told me he's from Hyderabad and does this work with passion not just for money. You could really feel that in the food. The prices were surprisingly affordable but the food was high-end. The quality, the people, the taste everything was superb. Honestly, this was one of my best experiences in years. I'm definitely coming back again, at least for the haleem! Their biryani was also incredibly flavorful it felt like I was eating back home in Hyderabad, India. You guys are number one! Please maintain the same quality and standards you're well on your way to being the best in North America. I was in Norwalk, Connecticut for three days and I wholeheartedly enjoyed your food. The gyros, salads with egg, chicken sandwiches, wings, falafel you name it, you gave 100%! I love the food and service. They also have lamb and beef gyros, though I didn't try the beef since I don't eat it. Thank you for an unforgettable experience keep doing what you're doing!
