Dolce & Salato

Hands down, some of the best brunch I’ve had recently! They use the freshest ingredients with the 3 course breakfast and make sure each dish is done the right way. The specialty iced coffee made with love & ricotta & pear crostini was especially memorable & a Must try!This restaurant strikes the perfect balance between chic and cozy. The ambiance is trendy yet comfortable, making it ideal for intimate dinners and lively gatherings. The owner/chef as well as waitstaff was top-notch. Highly recommend! #brunchwiththeitalians

Had my wife’s milestone birthday here. The Armondo Experience was amazing. The wines paired perfectly with the delicious menu Armando came up with. Couldn’t have turned out to be a better evening. The attention to detail, food, wine pairing and staff were on point. I can’t wait until my next visit.

Very cozy & a family friendly owned restaurant! From the flakey perfectly toasted cream filled croissant, to the delicious proper espresso, this is now a favorite spot! I had to go with the pistachio fill, but the other options sounded just as tempting. We also spoke with the owners and could see the passion behind their business along with being extremely friendly! We were told about their espresso martini and will sure be trying one for our next visit! Looking forward to coming back!

Just like Bacco was when on Federal Hill, chef and owner Armando makes it feel like you are dining in his home kitchen. A more intimate space, the entire experience was everything you could want. The food, wine recommendations and service were all top notch. Every dish was executed to perfection, from the on menu cioppino to the special amatriciana featuring fresh tomato pasta. I am glad my favorite meals can now be found at Dolce. It is the best restaurant experience in Rhody and I guarantee you won’t be dissapointed. I will be making visits from Boston regularly. The North End has nothing on this

What a find! Dolce & Salato is an intimate space with a welcoming staff. We enjoyed dining on the outdoor patio. The menu isn't crazy big, but thoughtfully crafted with some additional specials. I love that it's a family affair, which is reflected in the food. Chef Armando promised us an evening of good food and he did not disappoint. We had crispy duck wings in a lip smacking sauce, heirloom tomato caprese salad. Pasta dishes: carbonara with crispy guanciale and speck wrapped pasta in a creamy cheese sauce. Entrees: pounded bone-in veal chop Parm and seafood packed cioppino. All of the dishes were made with quality ingredients that elevated the taste experience. Courses were timed perfectly by our server, Dan, who chose wines based on our preferences as well. It was the most enjoyable meal we've had in a long time. It's a place to DINE, not just eat. We're fans.

The only thing better than Armando and his team is the food! The atmosphere is very cozy and warm. Look forward to many more meals had here. Very highly recommend.

The Armando Experience is truly an experience! It’s such a treat to see and hear from your chef and every course was impressive. I tried food I would not have just ordered off a menu and was not disappointed with a single course. A great way to get family and friends together for impressive food and an intimate experience!

Stopped in early for breakfast and cappuccino. Everything was prepared hot and fresh from the breakfast pizza to the leek and potato croissant. Delicious! Armando and his family are amazing and we will be back for lunch, brunch and dinner! Great Spot!

breakfast and dinner is fabulous! very attentive to you and your taste. Armando loves what he does and it shows in the food and service. The employees are friendly. They all make you feel at home!!

During Splendor of Florence's Sott'Acqua Festival: A Tale of Two Cities Underwater from November 9-17, 2024, local chef Armando Bisceglia's new restaurant Dolce & Salato did a pop-up in the old Tilden-Thurber Building on Westminster Street that used to be the home of Yoleni's. There were rustic and elegant décor like statues and sculptures in Florence that brings an old-world feel to the dining experience. Also, a special wine window was available outside with an area with a few cocktail tables. The charm of a wine window evokes nostalgia of old Florence and in the way it reflects Florence's deep-rooted wine culture. I made a reservation through OpenTable for a table for 2 on Sunday, November 17, 2024 at 5:30 pm. We arrived a little earlier, but were greeted by the host and seated right away. An authentic Tuscan menu was featured. A plate of bread in olive oil was brought to our table. The server was very friendly and asked for us to order appetizer, entrée, and dessert at one time. I ordered the gnocchi al tartufo and my husband had the ossobuco di maiale. The gnocchi was in a very creamy sauce and there were pieces of truffle. It was very good. The ossobuco di maiale was a huge piece of pork shank with carrots, celery, onion, potato, and vegetables. My husband enjoyed the ossobuco very much; it was so tender. For dessert, we shared the classic tiramisu. The tiramisu was light, fluffy, and no components were overpowering. I also had a glass of the Rossino Prosecco and it was such a great pairing. Overall, great food and a great night. I felt like I was in Florence with the overhead music, decor, food, wine, and service. I can't wait to visit Dolce & Salato soon.

Great new spot in the area! Service and food was outstanding. Professional but down to earth. Check it out if you haven't yet!

We've been regulars with Armando for about 3 years and the food always impresses. The new space at Dolce is beautiful and the dishes continue to be authentic and delicious.
