Dolcevita Coffee is a vibrant gem nestled in the heart of Los Angeles on N Western Ave, masterfully blending the art of coffee roasting with a cozy cafe experience. Specializing as a café, coffee roaster, and tea house, Dolcevita Coffee stands out for its thoughtfully crafted beverages and exceptional in-house roasted beans that elevate your coffee ritual beyond the ordinary.
Step inside and you’re greeted by a warm, inviting atmosphere that feels both modern and comforting. The aroma of freshly roasted organic single-origin espresso beans—sourced from Guatemala and Ethiopia—envelops the space, whetting your appetite for a drink that is as complex as it is satisfying. Customers often rave about their iced Americano, a crisp and invigorating choice perfect for Los Angeles’ sunny vibe, while the Vanilla Latte and Spanish Latte offer a creamy, smooth indulgence with subtle sweetness. The Tiramisu Latte, infused with rich, dessert-like depth, is a standout that artfully balances bold espresso notes with luscious cocoa undertones, creating a truly memorable taste experience.
The menu extends beautifully beyond drinks, offering tantalizing food options that echo the café’s dedication to freshness and flavor. The Strawberry Ricotta Toast perfectly balances tartness and creaminess atop rustic bread, while the Pesto Bagel—brimming with basil pesto, cream cheese, juicy tomatoes, peppery arugula, and drizzled with balsamic glaze—delivers an aromatic and savory bite that’s both vibrant and satisfying. For those looking for a heartier option, the Lox Bagel is a masterclass in texture and taste: smoky salmon, tangy cream cheese, delicate horseradish, and briny capers play in harmony enhanced by a sprinkle of truffle salt and everything seasoning.
Dolcevita Coffee also caters to tea lovers with an exquisite selection of organic teas, including a finely crafted Chai Latte made with pressed ginger juice and fiery spices—all natural and preservative-free—bringing warmth and spice in every sip. Those seeking non-caffeinated refreshers will appreciate the simple yet revitalizing Lemonade, perfect for a laid-back afternoon.
What truly sets Dolcevita Coffee apart is their commitment to quality and community spirit. Real customer testimonials speak volumes—Meghan Beck praises the “cute atmosphere” and fresh avocado bagel, while Sudarat Channun celebrates the expertly balanced banana cream matcha. The friendly staff and dog-friendly vibe create a welcoming space for locals and visitors alike, as noted by Anna V Garibay, who enjoyed the cozy curb appeal and engaging barista interaction early in the morning.
For coffee aficionados, Dolcevita's retail offerings are a treat.

The 64oz Cold Brew Take Home Kit is perfect for those who want to savor their quality brews beyond the café, boasting a smoothness achieved from a meticulous 24-hour brew. Single Origin Ethiopia beans bring vibrant notes of raspberry, blueberry, and chocolate, catering to those craving a juicy, complex coffee experience.

Whether you’re settling in for a quiet moment with a Tiramisu Latte or grabbing a cold brew for the road, this spot promises an elevated coffee experience that leaves a lasting impression.
Cute atmosphere with tasty cold brew iced coffee. Coffee beans are roasted in house. I had the avocado bagel which was fresh and delicious. Nice staff and would definitely recommend stopping by if you are in the area.
I had the banana cream matcha and it was amazing, creamy, lightly sweet, and not too heavy. You can tell they put some thought into balancing flavors because the banana wasn’t overpowering, it just blended really well with the matcha. We also split a pistachio croissant that was flaky, buttery, and really satisfying. The shop itself feels cozy and welcoming, a good place to grab a drink and relax. I’d definitely come back to try more from their menu.
Balcony is run by a really inviting guy that loves dogs. Yes they’re pet friendly, to the max! They have a board with dog guest pictures in it! So adorable! As we walked in the barista greeted us and even chatted. It was about 730 am too. No grumpy people here! Great matcha and coffee. I recommend the tiramisu coffee. The pastries are really good too. They have an awesome cinnamon bun. I know where they get them and it shows they know what they’re doing! There’s a side buns come from a strange unfriendly place lol. You won’t have awkward moments here though! I’ll be definitely back! On another occasion I got a croissant and an iced matcha latte! The croissant was so well made! It was heaven! Fresh as heck! The matcha iced latte was exceptional too! There’s a side patio and the decor is minimalist. Very clean and modern look. Kudos! Parking in front.
Cool coffee shop. Really like the outdoor area. A little noisy but brings a vibe. Bagel was decent.
Stopped by Dolce Vita and tried the coconut matcha. Super smooth, not too sweet, and full of rich, quality matcha flavor. The pistachio croissant was fresh and delicious. Chill, modern vibe inside. Great spot for unique matcha drinks and pastries.
This is a very cozy cafe. They have a wide selection of drinks, and if you're unsure about something, ask the staff, who will be very helpful. I ordered a Golden Latte that day, and the staff explained the flavor. They offer simple breads, freshly made meals, and decaffeinated beverages. When we visited, the Google Maps name hadn't been corrected. I've posted this review and see that it's now corrected. I highly recommend it. I'll definitely be back if I'm back in LA!
Delicious Dulce de Leche latte, staff were very nice and it has a very cozy atmosphere. There isn’t much seating but it would be perfect for coming to get some studying or remote work done.
Love this cute little café! It’s clean and cozy, and the coffee tastes amazing — you can tell they really care about how it’s brewed. The owner is always so friendly, which makes the place feel extra warm and welcoming. There’s a nice covered outdoor area too, and parking on the side is super convenient. Perfect spot to chill or catch up with friends!
