About Dolce Delight

This page gathers the practical details people usually look for before visiting: where it is, how to reach it, when it opens and how customers rate it. Besides its main category, the business also describes itself as bakery, breakfast restaurant, italian restaurant, so it may cover more than the name suggests.
Breakfast is its own restaurant category in the United States. Diners serve eggs, pancakes, hash browns and bottomless coffee from early morning, sometimes around the clock; breakfast and brunch restaurants open around 7 and close in the early afternoon; delis and sandwich shops sell egg sandwiches and bagels to go and switch to lunch by 11. Weekend brunch, roughly 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., is the busiest shift of the week, and well-known spots run waits of 30 to 60 minutes; many now take reservations or a waitlist through an app. Expect large portions, free refills on drip coffee and a tip of 15 to 20 percent for table service. Creperies, waffle houses and bistros round out the group with sweeter or European-style menus.
Hours are published for 5 days a week. The most common schedule is 8 am–3 pm. Note that it does not open on Monday, Sunday. Hours in the United States do change around federal holidays and long weekends, so a quick call before a special trip is sensible.

Ithaca is in New York, in the Northeast, where four distinct seasons shape local life: hot humid summers, snowy winters that can close businesses for a day, and a dense pattern of towns where walking, transit and street parking all matter. Traffic in Ithaca peaks on weekday mornings and afternoons, so allow extra time then. Addresses read from the street number up to the city, state abbreviation and five-digit ZIP code; the map link on this page shows the exact spot.

Really good food! It was really crowded when I went on Saturday morning. Almost chaotic…. Service was quick though.

LOVE Dolce! They make the best quiche, tiramisu, and muffins in Ithaca, bar none. In a previous review I spoke of how they provided several quiches for a holiday brunch; they are worth a second top ten quality and service review! Seriously, their baked goods are amazing and their service is impeccable. Thank you Dolce!

An absolutely adorable spot to grab a bite and a snack. This is a nice cafe spot with some really good food options. We had the harvest salad and “The Diva” breakfast bagel open-faces sandwich. The harvest salad has spinach, apple slices, dried cranberries, walnuts, and cheddar cheese in it, nice and fresh. The diva is decadence. It had cream cheese, avocado, melted provolone, bacon, and it was topped with pico de gallo. It was everything! We also grabbed a couple little truffles because one kind sounded interesting, the other looked like little footballs. They also have pies and items available for holidays, like Thanksgiving that can be ordered.

Absolutely loved our trip to Dolce Delight! I ordered a Dolce Special but substituted bacon for ham. Everything about the sandwich was phenomenal. The biscuit had crispy caramelized cheese on the outside and was fluffy on the inside, the egg and bacon were perfectly cooked, cheese melty and the pepper jam rounded out one of the best breakfast sandwiches I've had. My husband had the Joey on an everything bagel and he said it was really good as well. We also got an iced mocha and iced coffee. The mocha was so well balanced: not too sweet with great chocolate flavor. The iced coffee had a great flavor and was not too acidic. So impressed with everything! Also, loved the vibes. You can tell that this is a spot the locals enjoy and frequent and everyone seemed to know each other.

Dolce Special was truly special! We absolutely loved the chipotle biscuit and hot pepper jelly - had a nice kick in it and was very flavorful. Our six daughter had Sweet Piggy - the bagel was very cinnamony and tasted pretty much like a French toast with bagel texture. Definitely recommend everyone to give Dolce Delight a try if you are looking for an alternative to Collegetown Bagel.
