Dolce Espresso — Restaurant in Melbourne

What a delicious experience!! I highly recommend you try this place. My mum and I were looking for somewhere where myself being on ketogenic diet (low carb) and where my mum being a vegan could both enjoy some food and drink. As you can imagine, it’s a pretty hard thing to do.. I had the halloumi salad which was keto and absolutely amazing!!!!! And my mum had a vegan hot chocolate and a vegan sweet which ticked all the boxes! Not to mention my iced long black was to die for :D! I was so impressed with the service as there was no hesitation with our complex dietary requirements, all was catered for and my meal was brought to my table and the ingredients used was explained to me, just to check it was ok for me. That kind of thoughtfulness isn’t very common and for that I am encouraging all to try this great place and experience it for yourself!

Thanks guys for making it a great meal and...

Have been here numerous times on a weekly basis, however this time, it left a lot to be desired. We waited 20 minutes for coffee to arrive, which wasn't extremely hot as we ordered. Then waited another 10 minutes and food still hadn't arrived. Went up to ask for mum's cake to come out, which it eventually did, but still no toasted sandwiches. The person on the table next to us arrived 20 minutes after we did, and got his food long before we did. My toasted sandwich eventually arrived, stone cold and without the usual salad that accompanies it. My husband's gluten free toasted sandwich arrived microwaved and not toasted, the cheese wasn't even melted. Had to order another round of coffees as we'd finished ours long before the food had arrived. The person at the counter couldn't care less about their appalling food and lack of service. Will NEVER...

Terrible service. I have been waiting for unusually long time for my coffee. I could see the customers after me got their orders. I told one of the staff who delivered orders to table that I had been waiting for quite some time for my coffee. He went to the counter and came back telling me that the staff at the counter couldn't remember taking my order. I approached the counter, telling the staff how much cash I paid, got the change and he stamped my coffee card. I got the order number to put on table from him as well. He told me he couldn't remember or located the order. He did apologise and I got my coffee. I don't think this place knows what good customer service is and the staff is so...
