Good food. Nice place for a date. It was advertised as an American grill so I expected sandwiched, burgers and fries. I was surprised to find a very posh menu, without any sandwiches..... and prices that I would expect to pay only for special occasions or dates. Thank goodness we had a BOGO reward on Passport.
I was caught off guard by the menu and price, but the food, service and atmosphere were worth it.
Every time we eat at Dolce we are impressed with the food, the staff, the chef and the service. Dolce is our "go to" fine dining experience, even though we live somewhat far away from West O.
Always a wonderful dining experience - from dining to the atmosphere and the wine list, it’s all top notch! Excellent job chef Kueper!
Dined here for the first time last night, and I already made a reservation for our next time. Great decor, small but cozy and not loud. We had the “Date Night” menu, and it was hard to choose as all options sounded wonderful. Started with amazing risotto, moved onto the pork belly salad which was so good, then had the wagu flatiron for the main course. Steak was cooked to perfection. Closed with the chocolate mouse which was the perfect ending. The owner couldn’t have been more kind to us as we closed the place down. Looking forward to going back next month!
Absolutely outstanding. Very warm, romantic atmosphere with a live acoustic musician while we dined. Having eating there once before, we had high expectations and definitely were not disappointed. The drinks and food were top notch. Definitely the place to dine.
The creme brulee was AMAZING!! Literally best I have ever had and our waiter was phenomenal. I think his name was Timothy. Highly recommend!!
The mussels were the best I have ever had, flown in fresh from Prince Edward Island. Even the olive oil used in the house salad was phenomenal. The service was perfect, the ambience was perfect, everything exceeded already high expectations!
We went there for our anniversary and had a great time. We did the chef’s 5 course dinner and every course was perfectly cooked and seasoned. The Manhattan was smooth and delicious.

This was our first visit to Dolce and what a wonderfully unique dining experience it was! The staff was attentive and very friendly. The presentation was beautiful and the food was fantastic! We will definitely be back because there were several dishes we would like to try!
It was my first time experiencing this 5 star restaurant!! The utensils was changed with each meal!! I also loved how they have a date night menu!!
Absolutely fantastic! We came here for our anniversary and it was perfect. The Date Night menu was wonderful!
Great time at Dolce's. Our meal was wonderful. Loved the Date Night menu idea. My salmon was perfect. Everything was delicious. The Wednesday night music by Chris Saub is an extra bonus. Great presentation, management and staff. Highly recommend dining there!
For a couple, go with the date night dinner. I never thought those pretty looking small portion plates were capable of filling someone up but by the time we'd been served all the courses, I was comfortably full. Every bite is a flavorful delight.
Incredible meal from appetizer to dessert! Amazing food and service!

Great food, service, and live soothing music made our 9th wedding Anniversary very special...thanks!
The flavor of the food is amazing. Elegant and relaxing atmosphere.
Great environment, great food! I had the scallops and my wife had the duck. Both were amazing dishes! Perfect for a date night!
We love Dolce. The service. The food. The individual attention to every little part of the meal, the experience.
Absolutely love the food, the service and the atmosphere of Dolce!!! Highly recommend it!!!
Always wonderful. The staff is great and the food exceptional. What a great value. Thanks!
Best experience we have ever had!!! Last two anniversarys here with chefs menu and it has been the greatest experience ever.
Very unique cuisine. Full of flavor and a feast for the eyes. Glad my work chose your establishment for our company party. Will definitely be back!
As an Omaha foodie for the last 15 years I just can't stress enough that this is a gem in our city and will not disappoint. Beautiful, fresh, unique, delicious dishes. Strongly suggest the tasting menus!

Tried Dolce last night for the first time and it was Amazing and DELICIOUS!!! The food presentation was very impressive too. If you haven’t been you need to try it! I will be back!

Absolutely the best date night place in Omaha!!!!!!!!!
One of the best restaurants in Omaha. Everything cooked perfectly, and outstanding service.
The Black Sea Bass. Phenomenal...
Enjoyed the live music. Was beautiful, but not too loud that you couldn't be heard. Food was fantastic. Would definitely come back. Perfect spot for foodies, nice date night, or a spot to take people out for a nice meal.
Finally , we find a new fine dining restaurant in Omaha . First time we was there , everything was so so delicious , we are celebrated our anniversary here with my kiddos . Me and my husband got prix Fixe menu , every course is so so good , only my soup tastes a little sweet but it acceptable , my kidd had steak and mac and cheese , they said it’s so pretty good 🥹excellent service too . For sure next time we’re in town we will be back ! It worth 2 hours drive to the restaurant .
Absolutely loved the food. We opted for the chef's tasting menu as a party of three. All of the food was superb. The chef would bring out our plates and describe the dishes while explaining some of the ideas and creation. Everything was cooked to absolute perfection.
It is one thing to be served at a restaurant, but it is another to be served food with the passion behind it. I have never had a chef personally rotate a plate to display the beauty in their presentation, but that's what we received at Dolce.
Every plate was incredible, the wine pairing is well chosen. I cannot recommend this place enough, and the chef menu enough, for a special occasion or a nice night out.
The interior is comfortable and inviting, the food is elegant and delicious, the restaurant is an experience and a must.
We wandered into Dolce a couple months ago without a reservation -- we didn't think we needed one. Chef Anthony expressed his regret at being unable to seat us, he and asked us to please make a reservation and come back.
Chef is very hands-on with his business. He understands quality food and quality service, and he made us feel like we were the center of his attention for the evening. We spent about three hours enjoying the five-course tasting menu, but the time flew by anticipating the next piece of edible art.
The atmosphere was perfect as the lighting was soft, and while there was a positive buzz in the place, it was quiet enough to have a conversation comfortably. We highly recommend Dolce and will be returning.
Fantastic experience. From the food to the service. Our one year wedding anniversary could have been any better. The chef and staff know how to please.
I really loved the place and the food. We went with the pre fix menu. The food was delicious. I loved the ravioli and I wish there was a little more quantity. My husband loved the squash soup - very creamy and tasty. My next favorite was the red pepper shrimp. I have asked for extra spice and the chef made sure to make it. The waitress did ask me for the taste check once she delivered the food. I liked how the chef accommodated my request. My only suggestion is that they have a few more chicken and vegetarian options.
Overall, a very nice place. Definitely recommend for date nights.
I've been to quite a few high-end restaurants and Dolce still holds the spot for my favorite meal ever. The chef's tasting menu was incredible. The chef came out, explained each dish, told us about the herbs and vegetables he grows in his own garden, and everything was beyond amazing. Great job.
The Mac and cheese was some of the best I had. I liked that it was more saucy. The flavor carried over very well.
Soup of the day was a cauliflower infused with truffle.
The mussel option for lunch was $11. Exceptionally generous portion of mussels.
The chicken gnocchi option was fine. It was good, but the other items stood out more for me.
Service was friendly and polite. Definitely would like to see the rest of their menu.
Presentation is very nice. Altogether a lovely restaurant great for date nights. It has an intimate high class feel to it.
The Chef here knows food and wine. Our tasting meal and the wine accompaniment were excellent. We went on a Saturday night and arrived about 5 minutes early for our 7:45 reservation. The greeting at the door could use work. The male who would later be our waiter seemed almost annoyed that we were there. He became a little more friendly after seating us but it was a bad beginning. After that things just got better and better. We ordered the five course tasting and every dish was outstanding. Courses were served by the chef and wine was brought by the waiter. All courses were substantial so we were full at the end. I usually only taste desserts but here I did eat it all. The wine pairings were the best I’ve ever had. This is a chef who is truly a master at his craft and his sommelier background is a great complement to those skills. This was an outstanding meal and we’ll definitely be back.
Went here for anniversary dinner. Overall is a good place. Nice atmosphere but is small. We did the date night meal, a four course dinner. All the courses were great, but the risotto was a little too salty. The other items were well seasoned. The staff was very friendly prices not too expensive. Would come again. This is a nice hidden gem in Omaha.
Great upscale restaurant with friendly staff and great food. The chef was freaky and had great stories about the food.
My husband and I went in for the first time this weekend and had the 6 course tasting menu, not knowing what to expect. We were blown away! The food was amazing, every course unique and fun. Highly recommend!
This was our first time at Dolce, and it was absolutely incredible! We had the Valentine’s Day four-course pre fixe menu. My favorite thing by far was the butternut squash soup! It’s made with cocoa, curry, and topped with a toasted marshmallow. I think I literally said “oh my god” after the first spoonful. It was absolutely heavenly. The hanging tender steak cooked medium and served with bearnaise sauce was right up there as a close second favorite. So tender and flavorful... it was absolute perfection. The potato pavé left a little to be desired but the créme fraîche mash that was served with the salmon was rich, creamy, and delicious. I got the wine pairings with each course. Personally I would order a bottle or by the glass next time. I just want more wine than a tasting.
The pre fixe meal at Dolce is honestly a steal. So much variety and value for the money. The hostess and our server were so friendly and attentive. And the candlelit atmosphere and quaint dining area is perfect for an intimate, romantic date night. All in all a fantastic evening out with exceptional food. If you haven’t been I’d highly recommend it. Such a fantastic night.
Anthony the owner is an artist when it comes to food. Every item is AMAZING! I have never been disappointed. The staff are knowledgeable and friendly. The atmosphere is modern and comfortable. Music they play in the restaurant isn't overly loud, nor boring. This place is an absolute gem! If you haven't visited this restaurant I highly recommend you do immediately. Try the Jameson and the giant peach cocktail. It has a delicious sophisticated flavor to it and is still strong without tasting like straight booze. The lamb is delectable. The beef is locally raised and hand picked by the chef. Tender and packed with an explosion of flavor as it melts in your mouth sending you to meat heaven. Also, they have the best bread pudding in Omaha. If you like live music come on Wednesdays for a live acoustic show to accompany your delicious meal. There is to many things to compliment at this fine restaurant. Do not wait! Call them today to make a reservation.
Absolutely SPECTACULAR! Hands down this is one of my favorite restaurant experiences ever. I can't believe I haven't been to Dolce before but I will definitely return and if you haven't gone, you really need to make a reservation now. You won't regret it!
We had the Chefs 5 Course Tasting Menu and honestly all I can say is wow wow wow. I was super impressed by (and very appreciative of) their ability to accommodate my unfortunate need for gluten-free in each course. The wines were perfectly paired to bring out the complex and creative flavors in each plate. The first course was quite possibly the best sea scallop I've ever had. While I can't remember all of the specifics, it was beautifully plated with rice and potato crisps, a spicy slaw and fresh microgreens. It set the stage for the remaining courses. Second course was a fantastic and again beautiful tuna tartare. Third course was delicious duck. Fourth course was a to-die-for wagyu beef... seriously every bite elicited moans of pleasure. Sooooo good. Last course was a banana ice cream with berries, brittle and dark chocolate. It was all I could do not to lick the plates clean.
Chef Anthony is not only an incredibly talented chef, but also a marvelous host. He personally delivered each course which made the dinner even more special, not to mention entertaining! The serving staff was the epitome of friendly, professional, and attentive. I don't know that I've ever experienced a more perfect dining experience. This might be the best kept secret in Omaha. If you find yourself contemplating dining at Dolce, deliberate no more... you simply must go. You won't regret it. I highly highly recommend!!
