Service really lets this establishment down. Today was slow, off hand and obviously disharmonous.

Very nice bolognese, saltimbocca and Garlic bread. The chef is heavy handed with the salt. The service is poor, always has been and probably always will be. If you go to this place with expectations of good food and average service, you will walk out with expecatations met. I wouldn't go there if you're in a rush as the wait times can be unpredictable.

Went to Dolcissimo the other day for lunch, considering that it is pretty much the only restaurant open in Haberfield for a Monday lunch and it is the Christmas period, it was pretty busy, so I will give them a pass on the slow service and cooking time. However, I can imagine this is not the place you'd want to go to for a lunch under an hour if the place was over half full. We only ordered one pizza and one side salad with 2 drinks and it took about 30 minutes for the salad to arrive, then an extra 15 for the pizza.

The food was nice though, salad was over dressed, but as it was only olive oil and balsamic I didn't mind too much and it was moped up by the bread provided (which was a nice touch even if it came out after the salad). I would come back and eat here again because I did enjoy the food, but for 1 pizza, 1 salad and 2 soft drinks to equal $40, it isn't cheap.

I haven't been here for maybe 2 years now, my last memory was that the food was above average, prices were a little high & service was average. Tonight we decided to go back with hubby & kids. Where do I start? Service was below average, the waiter seemed nice enough but didn't offer any cracked pepper or drinks when taking order. I asked for a glass of water twice near the end of my meal before it was served.
The food was average, we ordered garlic bread, calamari, gnocchi & fish. All the dishes were average. The price of the fish served with veges was $40! Definitely not worth it.
Overall I don't think we will be going back, such a shame because we try our best to support local businesses.

I have been twice and never will be going again unless there is a change in management. I came on a Saturday night and waited 1.5 hours for the main to arrive another half hour for the dessert to get there. This was probably the worst experience in customer service I've had in a while. I know this place was good several years ago but now its really disappointing to see how low its dropped on its customer service and food quality.

Fathers Day 2011. This restaurant used to be good value and consistent, but these days it is not offering great food or service. We were not the only ones waiting more than 2 to 3 hours for our food on Fathers Day, when it finally arrived it was terrible to say the least. I don't know what the problem is, but its a big one.

Perhaps, too many people and not enough cooks. I never expect great service there, but food is important and now they don't have that either. Don't waste your money, there are plenty of great restaurants in other areas. Never going there again after being a long time patron.

Staff are incredibly rude and non efficient. We didn't receive our salad even after we finished our mains and they starting clearing the table as other people were still eating. The waitress we had had a nasty attitude and the food was terribly salty.

The senior staff/Waiter reminded me of soup nazi on Seinfield. He was rude and impatient. He refused to go down the stairs to retrieve the dessert menu on request stating we had opportunity when we viewed menu at the beginning of the night.

Instead to our amazement, regurgitated the dessert menu he had supposedly memorized. We were bewildered and astonished by the unfriendliness and arrogance of this gentleman. The Risotto was terribly dry and tasted like rice soaked in chicken stock but because I was hungry I ate it. We were not offered refreshments when it was obvious bottles were finished.

The tables were partially cleaned after meals. When a young female waitress was clearing the table she removed 2 large pizzas which had 2 slices missing from each with intention to throw out. If I didn't stop her and ask her to box it she had no intention on doing so. If service was decent, I would have considered returning.
