The food is excellent! I had the duck and my husband ordered the veal and there was a LOT of food. Even the dessert was very, very good. I'd recommend trying the restaurant if you want great food and outstanding service. It is a bit stark inside due to the concrete/cement flooring but still worth the visit.

Came for restaurant week & Dolce did not disappoint! I liked that they had good options - I understand that you typically can’t offer the full menu, but some restaurants really skimp on the menu during that week since you’re paying less. The salmon I had was cooked to perfection and the rigatoni was so flavorful! Even the bread was amazing. Service was excellent, although we went early to catch a show. I can’t speak for what it’s like with a full dinner crowd, but our server was exceptional. I had been to the W Hotel, but had never been to Dolce, but I will definitely be back!
