Took my husband here for dessert before dinner (why not?!) because I wanted him to try the tiramisu! I tried it a few months back and have been dreaming of it. SO GOOD! We also tried the blueberry cheesecake, which was good but not as good as the tiramisu IMO. We also ordered a glass of wine and the gentleman who poured it for us was quite friendly and gave us a little history about the wine. Cute indoor and outdoor seating and will be back. read more

Friday night called for a special dinner, so I made a reservation for two at 5:30 at Dolce Caffè. We were seated by the front window, which is my favorite spot. I love watching the people and cars go by in Midtown while enjoying a great meal. We started with drinks. I ordered the Limoncello Spritz, and wow--it was absolutely out of this world! My husband ordered the Chardonnay, and owner Claudio explained that it's made in the traditional Italian style. Instead of being buttery like many California Chardonnays, it's slightly sweeter and very smooth. After trying my cocktail, my husband decided to order a Limoncello Spritz too, and he ended up enjoying it even more than the wine. We skipped the appetizers and salads and went straight to the main event. I ordered the mushroom ravioli, which I had been dreaming about all day. It was light, delicate, and packed with incredible flavor. My husband, who is from New Zealand, chose the lamb chops. They were cooked to perfection, so tender you could cut them with a butter knife. He paired them with the asparagus risotto, which was delicious but a little heavy alongside the lamb. We ended up taking some home, and next time I'd recommend pairing the lamb with a salad instead. To finish, we shared the large ricotta cannoli topped with chocolate chips. It was heavenly, light, creamy, and it practically melted in our mouths. Honestly, every dessert we've had here has been fantastic. Dolce Caffè continues to impress with its authentic Italian flavors, warm hospitality, and wonderful atmosphere. We can't wait for our next visit! read more

Dolce Café had excellent service, and the food was delicious. I especially enjoyed my salad, along with all the pastries and desserts we ordered. Everything was fresh and flavorful, and I would definitely come back just for the salad. I'm not sure if the gentleman helping us was the owner, but he was incredibly kind and welcoming. He even offered water and a treat for my friend's dog, which was such a thoughtful gesture. His hospitality really made our visit even more enjoyable. Overall, a wonderful experience, and I look forward to coming back! read more

Lovely little oasis! The hardest part was deciding what to order. Everything looked amazing. One of the owners was there to greet me and took her time educating me about all the choices. Very friendly staff. I love that I could sit out on the little patio with my dogs. Definitely adding this one to my favorites list. read more

Dolce Caffe is such a cute spot. The staff was great and super helpful, which made the experience even better. They have both indoor and outdoor seating, so it's a nice place to relax for a bit. There were lots of delicious-looking pastries to choose from. The coffee menu is pretty minimal, but the atmosphere alone makes you want to come back. It's cozy, welcoming, and a great place to stop by for a treat. read more

Its a super cute shop. Its small in the inside and a good place to take a small group or have a mini date. They had a lotnofnthings sold out by the time we came, but they had a lot of good options to pick from. The portion tonprice is also nice. I had a cannot, I chose large as the price difference wasn't that much. It was a bit crunchy. That filling was what got me though. With the pistachio. Pure perfection. It was a little messy to eat. Inused my hands to help. So worth it. If anyone has time check them out and head there earlier, so you have more options. read more

After seeing a few Instagram posts that Dolce Caffé was now offering dinner on their patio, I knew I had to try it. I almost went home to change because I was still in my workout clothes, but Claudio immediately made me feel welcome. He told me he wants everyone to feel like family, and that genuine hospitality set the tone for the entire evening. It was so hard to choose between the Meyer lemon ravioli and the crab and lobster ravioli with vodka sauce, but I ended up ordering the crab and lobster ravioli--and it was incredible! The hint of lemon zest added the perfect fresh finish to the rich, flavorful sauce. I also ordered the summer bruschetta, which was just as delicious. Claudio even helped me select a wine to pair with my meal, and I was pleasantly surprised by how reasonably priced all of the wines were. The outdoor patio is absolutely charming, with beautiful plants and warm string lights creating the perfect atmosphere for a relaxing dinner. I can't wait to come back and try more of the menu. Highly recommend! read more

We made reservations for dinner and have to say it's one of the best experiences we've had in a long time. The staff is incredibly attentive, and they helped us pair wine with the specific dinners that we ordered. The food mouth watering! We had bruschetta, wagu ravioli and lemon ravioli and took our dessert home, which was lemon blueberry cheesecake and a cannoli filled ricotta and topped with chocolate chips on one side and pistachios on the other. Era tutto buonissimo! read more

I received an immediate response from Claudio re: my review. I went in the next day and spoke to Melissa about my experience. She listened, explained what may have been the reason for dry lemon blueberry slices, and invited me to try other pastries. Every item I tried was fresh and delicious. So much so, that I ordered dessert for a weekend gathering. I was extremely impressed that Claudio took the time to respond to my review and that Melissa was extremely pleasant and made it clear her goal was to make me a happy and returning customer. I believe Dolce Caffe will start serving dinner at the Mayberry location this week. I wish the team at Dolce much success and look forward to having dinner with them soon. read more

Dolce Caffe - Lemon Blueberry Loaf - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Reno, Nevada

My husband and I had dinner here tonight. It was so delicious! We started with a bottle of 2024 Frecciarossa Pinot Grigio recommended by Claudio and a very fresh green salad with Parmesan. We savored the Meyer lemon ravioli and porcini ravioli and somehow still found room for dessert: a mouthwatering ricotta-filled cannoli and blueberry lemon cheesecake. It was a lovely evening of great food, drink, and service, made even better by meeting new friends! read more

Just yes. This place is so damn good. Sweet family owns it, delicious pastries, great food, and special treats for the kids! Just get the giant Nutella stuffed donut. Just do it. read more

Good place, family friendly. Got a chocolate macaron topped with coconut it was good, also got a Bomba, which is pretty much a filled-donut with Nutella, and that was delicious! Coffee was great, strong but not overly bitter. Staff were definitely the best part, they're polite and welcoming. It's a great place for the family, but if you're looking for some peace and quiet, you might want to try earlier in the morning. read more

Dolce Caffe - Little treats to top off our meal! - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Reno, Nevada

Dolce treats everyone like family. They remember you and greet you like royalty. The hospitality is nothing like I've ever experienced and the food is to DIE for. You HAVE to try their croissants and almond cookies. They have delicious coffee drinks. Their baked goods are so fresh and absolutely delicious. I love this place and will tell everyone I know how amazing it is. read more

Came here with my granddaughter and as soon as we walked in I just knew it would be fantastic. The woman at the counter was friendly and helpful. My coffee drink was super delicious, and we were given a delicious cookie too because it was our first time there. I had a chai hot drink and my granddaughter got a iced drink. The place had so many treats to choose from too. It was very clean and comforting when you walk in. It is kind of small which makes it more cozy and friendly. Now my granddaughter goes with her bestie too. I will be going here more often and avoiding the big coffee chain stores. read more

Beautiful decor. Really nice people. Cute area. Gives a really nice neighborhood vibe. But I just didn't like the food. The sandwich bread and ingredients just didn't taste fresh. The pastries I had tasted like it was made a while ago. Maybe I'm expecting too much, but given the other reviews I just expected a lot more. Really want to love this place, but sadly don't. read more

This little cafe is tucked away in Mayberry Landing, in a small courtyard next to Madein. Lot parking is usually easy there, and there are also bicycle racks in the center. Dolce is small, but mighty, with a broad selection of Italian/European pastries and savories. In my experience, Italian bakeries often serve up a sort of colorful but bland, and often dry, range of similarly-tasting cookies. The pastries here are anything but, and there's a really delightful range of options, including gluten-free, from breakfast savories, to doughnuts, to cannoli (chocolate, ricotta, or cream), to cake. I love that I can often find something new to try. The ricotta cookies are not too big and not too sweet. You can comfortably eat there (indoor and outdoor seating) and pair your selections with coffee and tea. Can get a little busy, but service is friendly. They also serve breakfast and lunch, make custom cakes, cater, host private parties, bake holiday pies/breads. Looking forward to also trying out their new midtown location that does tapas and cocktails at night! TIP: Open at 7. Closed on Mondays. read more

Came here for an afternoon pick me up and although the inside is tiny you can just tell it's packed with love! An Adorable family run gem right in the heart of our Northwest neighborhood! Love it! I got the ricotta pistachio for I love all things pistachio and it did not disappoint, it was soooo delicious! Yes I will be back a thousand times over! Fingers crossed I win the giant egg raffle for Easter! What a great idea! The coffee is made fresh and it is piping hot! read more

We just had a most delightful meal at Dulce Caffe. It was a magical evening sitting outdoors in the patio. Everyone in our group of 7 enjoyed their meals, some of our favorites included the bruschetta, caprese salad with truffle oil. The risotto was amazing along with the raviolis. Save room for dessert, they are all beautiful and delicious! A true Italian treat. Oh and the service was excellent, the owner Claudio made us feel very welcome and special. I'll be back! read more

The beautiful display of pastries and desserts along with the warm welcome from the owners makes it one of those places that gives you instant happiness. It is a bit small and can get crowded during peak times though. We stopped by after a hike on a beautiful day, so we actually opted to sit outside. Claudio, one of the owners offered a heat lamp, but it was actually not needed. He also offered us a complimentary cookie for being first-timers. Now that's Customer Service. I had the most amazing Croissant Breakfast Sandwhich. It was huge, so I asked if I could just get half and they had no problem accomodating my request. I have to say, it has to be the best tasting Croissant I've ever had...so flaky and buttery. SO GOOD!! I also had a Cafe Latte made with Illy coffee. This place is without a doubt a 5/5. read more

Your next best chai experience is HERE, at dolce cafe, try it you won't regret it! The pistachio cookie was good, too. Only wish there was more of it! read more

150 percent recommend this place. Been there now three times and consistently good service and food. I won't mention any other names but the pastries are out of this world. Sure surprise, your wife, husband, friends with a box of these treats and they will kiss you! The prosciutto and cheese croissant as well as the strawberry fruit danish was dare I say some of the best I've eaten?!!! The owners are from Italy and you'll feel like you've stepped into Italy from the moment you order. So say bon journo and stop in and treat yourself sitting inside or out among the flowers and water feature. Can't say enough good stuff about this place! read more

From the moment you walk in, you're treated like family. The food is some of the best authentic Italian cuisine I've ever had--every dish is fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with care and tradition and many items are imported directly from Italy. What truly makes this place special, though, are the owners and staff. They are incredibly kind, welcoming, and genuinely care about every guest. They take the time to chat with you throughout your meal, make sure everything is perfect, and are always checking in to see if you need anything. Their hospitality creates such a warm, personal atmosphere that you don't find at many restaurants anymore. read more

I appreciate the offer to refund my money, but I will honor our contract. You provided the item I requested. I paid for the item. I was disappointed and just won't purchase from you again. My suggestion is to find an authentic recipe and create a Princess Cake that is authentic and quit with the bastardized American version. It's awful. read more

So friendly and amazing pastries!! Picked some up over a weekend and they seriously helped me out with so many options! I was on my way to a second location, but I'm definitely looking forward to coming back and dining in, such a pretty outside area for seating.

As soon as you walk into this quaint cafe, you'll notice an abundance of natural light, smiles on guests faces and a delicious display of assorted pastries front and center. Do yourself a favor and order a cappuccino while you take your time looking through the assorted pastries available within the display, or looking through the cafe menu items like quiches, sandwiches and much more. I ordered a turkey and tomato sandwich on Focaccia, as well as a cup of the goulash soup. It was all fantastic, especially when I dipped the sandwich into the soup. So good! Don't forget the Italian Soda Bio Sicilia or glass of wine to go with. Service is phenomenal. This is a family business with mom working hard to produce your favorite culinary items, while her daughter handles everything mom isn't. The staff seems to truly care about the family and the business as a whole, giving a great standard of care to all who step into the cafe. read more

Wow! I'm in love this place is like a little slice of heaven. Absolute best mocha in town; such a simple drink, but so many places it's too sweet, too bitter, espresso tastes burnt etc. here, it's perfect! Just the right sweetness, smooth espresso, just amazing. The pastries we have tried are amazing. Flaky and delicious croissant (the jalapeño cream cheese one is my favorite!). Finally I was able to snag the salata ai fungi today and wow it's delicious. And to top everything off, the people here are so lovely. They are friendly, kind and provide great service. This location is small but very cozy and has a really nice courtyard. Overall, I will recommend this place to anyone and I will continue to enjoy visiting frequently! read more
