Review Summary

Dulce Café Cookies draws a mixed but generally positive picture, with reviews praising the stylish, welcoming space and the range of inventive flavors such as pistachio with large chocolate chunks, matcha coconut, tiramisu, strawberry toppings, and a Dubai inspired option, while noting that cookies can be soft and moist when fresh but some batches come out dry or with an aftertaste, including a faint frozen note in one cookie.
