    Our dinner at Dolce was wonderful. Our server was attentive throughout the meal and helped me when choosing a pasta dish that had no cheese. We had the bruschetta as an appetizer, the pasta Amatriciana and rigatoni w/Italian sausage as entrees. The finish was a cannoli for the husband and a Godiva chocolate torte for me. Everything was outstanding!! You can't go wrong choosing this authentic Italian restaurant. Bon Appetit!
