My friend and I came in here last weekend for some late night drinks. We were happy that the kitchen was still open at 11! I had tried one of their pizzas, which was really just a flatbread. It was ok, nothing really special. It felt like it was just heated up and not made fresh. The couple next to us had a cheese plate which looked really good! I wish I got that lol! I had their blood orange martini cocktail and it was great. I wish it was a little more tart, but good overall! The vibes are very cute and I'm sure the patio would be great during the day. The bartender was super friendly and was super sweet when we asked her to grab a pic of us! I think it would be a good spot for a cheese plate and a glass of wine and I would go more in that direction when dining here! read more

Ordered the Bacon Apple Brie pizza, the Baked Brie with pecans and honey as well as apple slices and a blackberry mead cocktail - everything was phenomenal! The flavors paired perfectly together and the service was great! This place knows what it's doing and does it so well! I'm not from the area, but I will be back! read more

It was a nice surprise to find this cute place With a great service and variety of options on food and wine. Had a great time read more

I came in looking for good tapas but was disappointed that they only serve small plates with flat bread or cheese/hummus. The food service was super fast and tasty, but was not what I came in for. They do have lots of wine selection, but that was not what I was looking for. read more

Bartenders were great- super patient and answered the many questions we had. The pizzas were on flatbread and so unique on taste. I recommend the fig pizza- inside is what you woukd expect from an old time wine bar- the atmosphere is exactly what's needed for a slow, relaxed evening. If you're there later..:I'm sure it's way more of a party! read more

I think this is a cute place. We didn't get a lot. We had a 2 year old with us and didn't even know it was a no kids policy which is so strange since most places before 9pm allow children- esp when it's not just a bar- they serve food. So my mother had to stay in the car with him since we already ordered. I can understand and even appreciate a no kids place even being a mother but I think it does limit a lot of business. Moms need a patio place like this for their kids to be able to enjoy outside time while mom has a drink and snack. The food was meh, I was surprised at how the peach pizza had a microscopic amount of peach and arugula. The food tasted good but wasn't anything special. read more

We had a fig pizza and it was delicious! We ate outside. I would go again. We got a free pizza coupon.

Great aesthetic- great food- wonderful service!! Great place to spend time with friends.

Good drinks, good food. Excellent service.Bacon and fig pizza is delicious! Great place to wind down with friends after work.

It was hot but once the sun set everyone was packed outside and second floor. I say inside first but wish I got outdoor seating. They even had fly deflector fans. Bar seating was unique with finished wood and an L shaped so plenty of seating. We had good wine but pizza was delicious, enough for one so I'd order 3 next time. Definitely going back for next time in the fall read more

Loved this amazing place!! We also love their worker Sarah B. Always smiling and beautiful.

Great spot for some drinks and munchies! I really enjoyed the ambiance and events this restaurant serves to the community. My friend and I enjoyed bingo night and the staff was great! A lowkey spot for a date or hanging with friends, love this space! read more

Shelby and Grace were great helps all night! Cider flight- problem the best idea i had other than ordering the pizza ! The blackberry mead was probably my fave cider! Also the cider flight is $10! The pizzas are pretty good! I got the white blanc both times and added pepperoni and jalapeños to one and just jalapeños to the other! Again, i place to stop by after floating the river( normal times) or shopping at the outlets! read more

Absolutely love this place. Everything on their menu is amazing. Their staff is super friendly.

It was such a sweet place but there was only 1 staff on a Sunday evening. She took the drink orders, food orders, made the food and was our server. So needless to say, we didn't get nearly as many drinks or food as we planned to. read more

Great pizza! And fun place to catch a flight of wine or beer. We tried the bacon, apple, fig/ dolcetto and chicken blanc pizzas - all great. Flavorful and nice thin crust. Cute patio with heating lamps and fairy lights / indoor seating if warm and inviting. Just wish those yummy pizzas were larger!!!! read more

Patio Dolcetto - 2 red wine flights - - Wine Bars Near Me - San Marcos, Texas

Great service. Great wine selections. Intimate atmosphere. Lots of outdoor seating and a couple of indoor bar tops available. Great pizza tooBoard. They have other food options but I've only had the pizza and Charcuterie board. Both were Great! Sunday Special: Bottle of Wine or Bubbles with Cheese Board $25 or +$2 for Charcuterie Board. We paid the extra 2 bucks...it was well worth. I'm not a big champagne drinker but always more than decent and exceeded my expectations! Definitely looking forward to coming back! read more

What a cute gem. The wine is fairly priced and there is an upstairs balcony among trees. Live music on weekends and the baked Brie is SO good. Perfect for a date, or girls night out classy style. The sangria flight was fun and a bit different/ unique. Service was ok but I think in part because it was crowded when we went. Really cute decor inside and out. read more

Limited drink and appetizer menu. Place is very small with limited seating. The portions are quite small but the service was attentive and friendly read more

We have enjoyed this place for years! Super nice atmosphere, relaxing vibe, great drinks and food. We celebrate birthdays here with a free drink! My favorite is the chocolate martini. The owner, Jean Paul, is very hospitable. My boyfriend has his art hanging inside. read more

Patio dolcetto is such a hidden gem in San Marcos!!!! Me and the girls would always go for wine, pizza, and charcuterie!!! I even had my post graduation dinner here! The outdoor ambiance is amazing at night. read more

This place was so cute. Stumbled upon it as we were looking for a spot in San Marcos and went on a Tuesday night and dang, this place is poppin on a Tuesday! All the outdoor spots were taken, so we made our way to the upstairs outdoor balcony, until we were able to snag a table downstairs (which is where you want to be). We quickly found out it was BINGO night. Yes, bingo night! No, it wasn't a bunch of boomers either! I wish I had gotten her name, but the girl hosting Bingo was incredible - great personality with lots of jokes and she def knew how to work a crowd! Cons - sadly there are some. The sangria flight is awfully sweet. The pizzas are good but took soooo long to get. The food menu is very small so you better not come starving or with a picky eater. However, if we're ever in the San Marcos area again, we will definitely be back to just enjoy a night on their outdoor patio! read more

Wonderful service. Manager has been there for a long time and she knows what she's doing. Great food, great drinks, and just a good vibe all around. read more

Hidden Gem! Definitely try this place. The staff is great. They seem genuinely enthusiastic about their work. They have great recommendations The food is fun. The pizzas are unique and tasty.

Great place to chill and have a small meal and drinks. I would definitely recommend it for a girls night out or also a date night. read more

The restaurant and courtyard are adorable. The food was good, but expect small portions. The service was not good. I asked for water and was quickly told where I could serve myself. She promised water carafe but had to be reminded. We weren't given napkins or utensils. Don't plan to return which is unfortunate because I liked the setting and food. read more

This place is so cute , on a hot Texas night we had a little breeze sitting outside on the patio we try the wine trio my favorite was the pineapple with added bubbles . Then we ordered the cheeseboard the goat cheese and the raspberry jelly just went together perfectly the service was great it just gave you that grown and sexy date night feeling with the candles I would definitely come back read more

The wine flight was so fun! We loved the atmosphere. It wasn't too busy, and it was so fun to sit outside. The service was great! I would totally recommend this! read more

Update: After leaving a message and texting the business, I received word that a credit will be issued for the error and processing fee. Super customer service--much appreciated and not often found. Went last night to meet a friend. Staff are super nice, and good selection of wines. However, the music is too loud at times (I want to talk with my friend, not have to yell to be heard) and portions of food are very small. Heads up on the House Pretzels--it is literally about a half cup of small pretzels from a bag covered in some seasoning with a little cup of mustard. This morning I noticed on my receipt not only an item that we did not order, but also a 4% credit card processing fee that no one told us about. Left a message requesting a credit. Bottom line: For a town like San Marcos, it's probably one of the nicer places to relax and have a drink. read more

Nice place but the menu is limited. Come to drink wine for sure and eat something small. Also a nice dog friendly patio.

Ellie was great and the food was really good! Got the Mexican Martini and Chicken Blanc Pizza

The food is always great here. Of course the wine is as well. My wife love to sit inside or outside, grabbing a couple glasses of wine and the baked Brie. read more

Always a great time at Dolcetto My friends and I come back to San Marcos just to meet there for drinks, the charcuterie board and cheesy bread! Owner's daughter is a great bingo caller, definitely deserves more tips lol read more

This place is AMAZING. We saw it while driving around looking for somewhere to go and it caught our eye so we checked it out. We were a bit more casually dressed as I would've liked, but it's okay because it was our first visit. The vibes here are amazing. Everything looks nice and sophisticated. We both had drinks, a couple of martinis and something else that I can't quite remember. The Brie was something new to my boyfriend, and we really enjoyed it. My Margherita pizza was perfect and my boyfriend Chicken Blanc pizza was also sooo good. I think his was better than mine, lol! I recommend this place to everyone I run into. It's so cute and the perfect date night read more
